Lookout For Smallpox.

DIR. J. A. Albright, secretary of the
State board of health, has addressed a
letter to all county health officers urg-
ing them to be on the lookout for an
outbreak of smallpox. The disease has
not yet appeared in Tennessee, but
many of the neighboring States are in
fected. Some of the States where
smallpox is epidemic are Mississippi,
Alabama, Georgia. North and South
Carolina, Florida, Indiana, Texas and
many others. DIR. Albright thinks that
the chances for an epidemic in this
State are very good if the health officers
do not keep their eyes open.
