UNION RECORDER, MILLEDGEVILLE, GA., JANUARY 3, 1029 A CAMPAIGN FOR PURE AIR What is TheRightTemperature? The mo*t Important phaac of tho better health move .tent Is the pure air campaign. We are reminded of what Mark Twain is reported to have said about the weather: “Everybody tulka about It, but nobody does anything about- if Nearly everybody knows, thinks te knows o. pretends to know about, all there Is to know about pure air und proper ventilation. Hut If tho sickness and death statistics are lo bo trusted, but few people put into prac tice what they know or profess to know. Our savage ancestors. If they could speak up. would indict our vaunted civilization. They would remind us that these respiratory diseases, and particularly tuberculosis, were prac tically unknown to :bera. Arctic and Antarctic explorers en dure the Intense cold in the polar re gions for mouths and ever, ytars with out any thought of catrhing a cold, but they usually succumb as soon as they are comfortably housed In the high- class hotels In Oh* world’s capitals Pure air Is the a'r of the outdoors— the air of the open spaces; on condi tion., of course, inet these open spaces are far enough removed from great cities and great factories. Among health workers, the very catching phrase. "Health blows through open windows," has been coined Tills Is- true, of course, depending upon the locality of the window** However. It should be said that ordinarily the out door air anywhere and everywhere la purer and more wholesome than In door air. It is more Important that tho sir circulate freely and that it be kept at the right temperature in our dwell ings und working places than that an effort be made to deprive It of actual Impurities, such as are exhaled or emanate from ur bodies through perspiration. This Is not to say that an effort should not be made to keep the uir chemically pure. It should, but It is more Important that It be kept at tho proper temperature and be al lowed to circulate or forced to circu late. This circulation Is the air's own method of purifying Itself. It is tho over-heated air of a school room morfc thnu the vitiated air that makes the student drowsy and languid and cut down his mental efficiency. From many careful experiments, it has bean found that the proper tem perature of school rooms, offices und other work rooms, as well aB resi dential quarters. Is 68 degrees Fah renheit. But tho campaign for pure air, and. through It. the curbing :»f tho respira tory diseases, is not only a school room, office and home problem. It la a civic problem. /FORGER ESCAPES ON WAY TO JAIL Decatur, 6a., Jan. 1.—John Jones, of the -viicitor general's office here announced today the escape of C. ] C. Hall, alias R. E.

And we did it right hero in good old Georgia.” The writer was sitting In Dr. Gllddeu’s office when these old patients came In. and he was Inter ested to know what sort of work they could do. and were doing. One inan is a hptel clerk, one Is on auto-motive engineer, one is an elec trical engineer, one Is a truck farmer, one woman<s a trained nurse and one Is tho sweetest, brightest, school girl buck at her studies.
