Savings Bond Sales
Here Total $56,593
Final U. S. Savings Bond sales
in Chattooga County reached a
total of $56,593. Thus 100.1 per
cent of the quota was reached.
One hundred five counties
reached and passed the goal of
1949 in the State of Georgia. E
Bond sales for the year amount
ed to $56,575. Many optimistic
statements have been made in
dicating good prospects for 1950
by leading bankers, leading
economists and others.
Jackson P Dick, Chairman of
the State Advisory Committee,
says that Georgians should buy
more Bonds in 1950 than in 1949.
With $53,000,000 coming to vet
erans of World War II in Na
tional Service Life Insurance
Dividend payments in the next
ninety days and with the Ameri
can Department of Georgia’s I
program urging that all veterans j
invest some of their dividend j
check in Savings Bonds, all coun
i ties should get off to a good start;
in the early months of 1950. Vet- I
erans will receive checks In 1
all counties in Georgia in the ।
; weeks.
It is estimated that $20,000,-
000 of Savings Bonds purchased
by Georgia people in 1940 will I
mature in 1950 and it is expected I
that many millions of this wiil I
be re-invested in Savings Bonds.
Bankers of the state, civic clubs.
oi the state, veterans organiza-,
tions of Georgia, business instl-1
tutlons. educators and many I
other leaders are aiding in the
promotion of the safest invest
ment on earth—U. S. Savings

CANNED CORN
, 1 Corn is a "filling" canned
, vegetable that combines well
with protein-rich foods such as
cheese, eggs, milk and meat.
i This means that it can be used
in a variety of ways for main
dishes that are satisfying as well
as easy on the budget.
——
VALUE OF HONEY

has a very special value in the
. diet. Its sugar requires no di
gestive change before being ab
sorbed by the body, and It is a
i safe, wholesome food for chil-
dren as well as adults.

Poor-Fitting Shoes
Cause Aches in
later Life-Killeffer
Dr. J. J. Killeffer, of Chatta
nooga, was guest speaker at the
Rotary Club’s regular meeting
Feb. 1, at Riegeldale Tavern. Dr.
Jack Allen was in charge of the
program and introduced the
speaker.
The speaker talked on or
thopedic surgery, its origin and
advance in recent yeras. He de
fined orthopedic surgery as "the
diagnosis and treatment of dis
eased or injured bones, joints
and muscles.’’
The speaker emphasized the
importance of proper first aid
। treatment in orthopedic cases.
Dr. Killeffer attributed many
of the aches and pains of feet
ana legs in later life to poor fit
ting shoes during childhood and
early maturity. He said most
shoes were made to satisfy the
artists’ conception of beauty in
stead of being made to fit the
foot.
Dr. Killeffer closed his re
marks with some information on
modern reconditioning practices
in hospitals today, that of physi
cal therapy or the exercise of
all uninjured parts while waiting
for the injury to heal.
J. B. Butler will be in charge
iof the program next week.

persons cancer strikes can be

Health Leaders Urge
Clean-Ups in State
“The Georgia Department of
Public Health is prepared to as
sist any community in planning
for adequate garbage and refuse
disposal”, Clifford Jessup of the
Refuse Collection and Disposal
Service of the Georgia Depart
ment of Public Health, said this
week.
“Unsightly, unsanitary open
refuse dumps are a disgrace to
I the State and a menace to the
health of the community”, Mr.
iJessup continued. “These dumps
(become a breeding place for
। rats would spread typhus fever
and flies that spread other dis
leases. Community self respect
and health demands proper dis
posal of garbage and refuse.”
Roy J. Boston, Engineering
Consultant in charge of the
i Typhus Control Service, states
that there were 218 cases of
I typhus fever in the State dur
ing 1948, resulting in 18 deaths.
(“Complete abolition of open
dumps would do much to elimi
■nate the menace of typhus
fever,” Mr. Boston said.
Mr. Jessup advocates the sani
tary land-fill method of refuse
(disposal. Garbage and refuse
is placed in unproductive
land, leveled, compacted and
thoroughly sealed with two feet
of dirt, thus preventing en
trance by rats and flies, odors
and unsightliness. The Engineer
ing Consultant of the State
iHealth Department is ready to
