Letter to Gus Grogan, Marietta, Ga.

Dear Sir: You'd strike it rich if you
could find way to shave your custo-
mers in less time, for less cost, and
make the shave last twice or shree
times as long
You wouldn't shave the same person
so many times, or get so much of his
money but the whole town would be
talking about you, and everybody
would come to you for shave.
Devoe lead-and zinc is exactly that
in paints, 1t takes fewer gallons, and
it wears longer. Costs less for the job
and you don't have to do it again for
years and years-six years at least.
Fewer gallons; wears longer
Takes fewer gallons to paint a house
with Devoe lead-and zinc than with
mixed paints or load -aRd-oil.
Yours truly
f. w. DEvoE & Co.,
81. New York.

The Influence Of the Negro.

IF we wish honestly to reduce our
death rate, we must extend our city limits
and give more attention and money to the
care OF the negroes. They arc herding TO-
sether in ill.ventlated and unsanitury
houses; they defy all laws OF dccency
and common sense, and fall an easy prey
to disease. Of the patients treated by the
physicians to the poor from 1900 to 1905,
l0,G03 were white and 1279S were colorcd.
The negroes come in close contact with
our children, &and tho warfare wugcd
against tuberculosis should begin among
the coorcd people, two of whom die to
every one of tho whites from this dis
ease,
SO said President Oppenhlmer, of the
Eoard of Health III his recent report TO
the Council on sanitary conditions in Rich
mond. The statement has n much broader
significance than that which Or. Open
Inner technically gave i. The negro Is
with us and we must deal with him as a
part and parcel, of the body polite. we
cannot afford to leave him to himself, to
go his own way. We tun draw the line
of separation, and must draw IT, in all
social relations, but we must In duty and,
as 4r. Oppenhmer shows, for our own
protection, help the negro to improve his
condition. f he breeds disease he Is also
capable Of breeding generalization. If
the community is contaminated BY his
physical degradation, it4;wili Fbe" contalni-
mated also by his moral degradation.
Every argument that cun be advanced
IN favor of improving tho physical health
OF the negro race can be advanced with
the same force and application with re-
gard to his moral and intcllectualAlcalth.
In short for our own safety and protection
we must educate the negro race.
lvc talk much Of our influence upon the
black race; butfwc must never forget that
the black race excrts reflex influence
uron u.s. If we do not help to mt the
black race up, the black race Will help
to pull us down. We were never SO Sc
riously impressed with this fact as when
reading Dr.. Oppenhimers report on the
ncgros relation to the health OF the
community.
