TB Asso. Fights Battle
With Dreaded Disease
Tuberculosis has been, and is
today, on a rampage in Chat
tooga County.
It’s a frightening fact, and one
that makes every health -con
scious person stop and think.
Almost every resident of this
county, if the disease hasn’t
stalked into his own home,
knows of least one home into
which it has put a pale finger.
Sometimes the outcome was a
happy one — one in which the
victim recovered, fully capable
of re-assuming his role in life.
This is often the case, but there
are times when it is not. Some
times only death can wipe out
: the disease.
In either case, there is much
: suffering, much unhappiness,
much expense.
The Chattooga County Tuber
culosis Association spends hun
dreds of dollars each year to help
alleviate problems which accom
pany tuberculosis.
They have been doing this for
! several years and the struggle j
has been a hard one. The battle
l with tuberculosis still has only
begun.
With the establishment of the
Public Health Department here
in May. 1948, came a ray of hope
that TB could yet be conqured
here. That ray became brighter
j when Miss Wilma Pace, public
health nurse, arrived in August,
1948. She found an immense task
before her. but when Mrs. Ray
mund Daniel was employed as
clerk to assist her with the rec
ords, Miss Pace was free to go
into the county and search out ■
TB and teach preventive meas
ures.
The Tuberculosis Association
is a young organization, having
first come into its own less than
two years ago. It replaced the
Tuberculosis Committee, which I
though effective, just wasn’t
large enough to do the tremend
ous job laid before it.
BEGAN IN 1942
The story begins in 1942, when
Homer Woods was Assistant
Cashier at t h e local bank. He
acted as chairman of the Christ
mas Seal Sale, but, without an
organization of helpers, it was
impossible for him to adequately
cover the county.
At the same time, a young
Summerville boy lay at Alto in
the State Hospital with tubercu
losis.
After nine months in the hos
pital and a year in bed, Charles
Farrar recovered. The patience
and devotion of his mother,
Mrs. B. W. Farrar, was undoubt
edly a big contribution to his
recovery.
But this young boy was grate
ful to the public. They had made
possible the hospital and his re
covery.
He went to Woods and offered
to help with the annual Seal
Sale.
More money than ever before
was raised that year and as a
consqeuence more TB - stricken
persons were given aid.
The interest Charles’ mother
displayed in the tuberculosis
situation here caused Mr Woods,
who was moving away, to recom
mend that she be appointed local
chairman. Also appointed to
work in this county was Mrs.
Agnes Hammond, whose husband
was a victim of tuberculosis. She
was named Treasurer by the
State Tuberculosis Executive
Treasurer. L. L. Young.
The TB work was enlarged and
so a more extensive Seal Sale
was necessitated.
Many of the persons asked to
help with the drive in 1944 re
main in the present Association,
never losing interest and realiz
ing perhaps more than ever the
great need for funds with which
to combat this disease.
Mrs Emmett Clarkson, who is
new Chairman of the local As
swiation. was among the first
workers Others included Mrs. O.
I Clecker, now Seal Sale Chair
, man; Mrs. John Stubbs. Mrs. J.
, H Newman and Miss Jewell
, Poole.
Mrs. Newman is another per
son who had a reason to be more
, i than just Interested in the work
here Her lovely young daughter
. i had been stricken with tubcrcu
. loris. She has since recovered.
Both Mrs Newman and Mrs.
. Farrar feel that any little thing
; they can do to help others will
b* 1 only a small repayment of the
aid given which meant the re
f covery of their children.
A. B Burnham, who has since
. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Nations.
Mr and Mrs Lester Nations and
Ruth Nations, all of Trion
Mrs Jannie Thomas and Miss
Myrtle Thomas, of Fort Payne
Ala., Mrs W L. Wood, of Way
side, were visiting Mr and Mrs
Maxey Parson, of Bubligna. Fri
day,
Mrs Fred Burrage and chil
dren were visiting Mr and Mrs
W L. Wood Friday night.
Mr and Mrs James Seritt.
Ray and Faye were visiting Mr
and Mrs. Andrew Rale and chil
dren Thursday night
moved away, was Seal Sale
Chairman here one year. His son
was not so fortunate as was Mrs.
Farrar’s. The disease was fatal
for young Burnham.
HELP NEEDED
The work continued to expand
and soon it was clearly evident
that something had to be done
on an extensive scale to combat
the TB menace. The TB Com
mittee couldn’t scratch the sur
face.
A meeting of the Medical So
ciety, the TB Committee leaders
of civic organizations and Mr.
Young, of the State TB Associa
tion, was held.
In a spontaneous move, it was
unanimously agreed that Chat
tooga County had to have a pub
lic health department. Only in
this way could the necessary
case-finding and prevention
work be done. The committee
would work as an auxiliary. ,
More meetings were held and
the matter was discussed with
the County Board of Commis
sioners, who agreed to levy taxes
to take care of such a depart
ment.
It was sometime before doc
tors, nurses and equipment could
be acquired, but in May, 1948,
the thing so many had been
waiting for so long was a reality.
The Public Health Department
was in operation!
But at this time, little could
be done because only a part-time
doctor and a pa t-time sanitar
tian. were available. There were
no nurses available and no clerk.
Now, however. Miss Pace and
Mrs. Daniel are on the job.
More is being done but there ,
is work here for at least four i
nurses. The situation may be im
proved somewhat in the near fu
ture, however; plans are under
way to secure at least one more
nurse.
WORK INCREASES
Meanwhile, the work of the .8
Committee jumped by leaps and
bounds and it was decided that
an Association was needed.
At a meeting in Trion in Feb
ruary. 1948. the re-organization
took place, with Mrs. Clarkson
I named as Chairman. Members of
the Medical Society, the Board
of Commissioners, the TB Com
mittee and State Health Depart
ment and State TB Association
leaders were present.
BUY SEALS; BECOME MEMBER
Under the Associational plan,
any person who buys Christmas
Seals is a member of the Asso
ciation.
Officers are as follows: Mrs.
Clarkson, Chairman; Mrs. Far
rar. Vice - Chairman and Reha
bilitation Chairman; Mrs. New
man, Secretary; and Mrs. Ham
mond, Treasurer. These officers,
together with Miss Poole, Mrs.
'Cleckler and Mrs. H. A Buffing
ton. comprise the Executive
Committee.
Members of the Board of Di
rectors are as follows: Mrs. Ethel
Simmons. Miss Faye Busbin, Mrs.
Tom White, Mrs. Mid M. Allen,
Jr.. Mrs. J. T. Stubbs. Miss Poole
and Mrs. W. U. Hyden.
Mrs. A. B Hammond. Miss An
nie Ruth Housch, Dr William
Gist. Mrs. Charles Cochran, Mrs
Farrar. Mrs. Cleckler, Mrs. Ham
mond. Mrs. Newman, Mrs. Clark
son and Mrs. Buffington.
The Seal Sale was conducted
under the Association for the
first time last year, at which
time approximately $1,500 was
raised. In 1947, the total proceeds
1 from the Seal Sale amounted to
approximately SI,OOO. This year’s
goal is $2,000.
Mrs. Farrar, Rehabilitation
Chairman, declares that they
have stretched “every cent” as
far as possible In order to give
, aid to the people who need it
! most.
While a lot of the Association
work Is only during the Seal Sale.
Mrs. Farrar’s work contluues the
year round. She handles the dis
tributions of the funds.
Many Uses
The money given to the Seal
! Sale is used in varied ways, with
75 per cent of all taken in re
maining right In Chattooga
County to help Chattooga Coun-

We had two nice letters this I
week from suhacrlbrrs who
live In “far away places." Well, j
not so far, but far enough i
away to be extra anxious to

Fla. Mrs. W T Bristow sent

that her paper be renewer,
"I surely do enjoy my paper, ,
as I am one of the home town

paper is just like a letter from

tians. Five per cent is sent to
the national association for re
search and 20 per cent goes to
the state association for their
work.
Last year, $317.36 was spent for
food an 3 coal for TB-stricken
families; $467.48 for medicine
and doctors, including strepto
mycin for three local patients;
$46.95 for clothing; $129.75 for
supplies: 7.20 for clerk and sl4,
miscellaneous.
These are cold, matter-of-fact
statistics. But the facts are not
cold nor are they hard. They
might make a shiver run up one’s
spine; but any person’s heart
would be warmed to see the light
begin to burn in the eyes of a
bed-ridden man as he heard the
good news — the news that his
family would be well taken care
of while he is at Battey.
In one instance, bad luck
struck with force — it struck
twice with hammar-hard blows. |
The father was young—a per
son with fine character and am
bition. He was stricken with tu
berculosis. It was a hard fact to
face, but he faced it squarely;
and leaving his family behind,
spent some time in the hospital.
His case became arrested and
he came home. But he had to
continue receiving treatments
and was unable to work. During
this time, the TB Association
proved to be a true friend in
need.
When he finally became able
to work, this father took a job
in a textile mill. There was more
bad luck ahead, however, and his i
wife became seriously ill. She is j
now in an Atlanta hospital. Dur- j
ing her preparation to go to At- |
lanta, the husband sustained an
absessed foot and was unable to
work for two weeks. Again the
TB Association stepped in with
groceries and supplies.
There are tragic cases where
the Association tries to help, but
receives no cooperation. Luckily,
there are only a few such cases.
In one, the father has tubercu
losis. One of his children died
with the disease. There are five
others, some of them very young.
But this father refuses to go
to Battey. His condition is be
coming worse and the life of the
,children is endangered by his
constant contact with them. Tu
berculosis is especially dangerous
to young children. In this case,
j there is nothing the TB Associa
tion can do except offer relief
by supplying milk and food to
the children, in an effort to pro
tect their health.
j It’s things like this the money
given for Christmas Seals issued.
It’s things like this the Tubercu
losis Association does every day,
i trying to assist those stricken
and to prevent further spread of
tuberculosis.

A DOLL?—No, this is Gale Sue Gaines, who is apparently well
launched upon an acrobatic career. Holding her is her father,
Grady Gaines, of Summerville. —Photo by C. W. Kringsberg
Unusual Feal
Performed By
Father, Daughter
It was almost a dare that
caused .Grady Gaines, shown in
accompanying picture holding
his four-months old daughter, to
accomplish the feat.
After seeing a similiar picture
in a daily newspaper recently
where the father was holding a
seven-months old child upright
in his hand, Mrs. Gaines said
she could hardly believe that
possible.
“Well, we have a child right
here,” replied Mr. Gaines. “Let’s
see what can be done.”
And with that brisk approach.
Mr. Gaines began practicing
holding his younger daughter
upright in his hand.
The feat is even more start
ling, considering that the child
is a mere four months old. while
the picture which promoted the
act featured a child of seven
! months age.
Mr. and Mrs. Gaines, who live
in Summerville, have three other
children, two daughters, ages
nine and seven, and a son, age
13.
