more TALK OF
TUBERCULOSIS
Most Dreaded of All Diseases
Prevails to Alarming Ex-
tent Among Colored Folks

DIR Greever is attending case of
tuberculosis i'm Thompson Valley,
i'm the family OF Henry Steele,
worthy colored man in that section.
There is, and has been for years, an
alrming number OF eases OF tubercu-
losis among the colored people I'm
this county. The physicians say
that perhaps not less than 40 per cent
of them have the dread disease in
some form. In this town and COM
munity whole families have been
almost completely wiped out within
the past decade. The disease Is also
prevalent more or less, among white
people i'm the country, more SO i'm
some sections than in others. In one
part of the county several families
have had 10 for years, IA number
dying and Others dying, and still
others living i'm constant fear and
dread of the pcstilonce that wRlkcth
ut MONDAY as we'll rs i'm darkness.
SO far as known no organized effort
Is being made TO stop the spread OF
the plague, for IL Is now clearly
shown that the disease spreads from
contact rather than heredity. Some
time ago there was strong talk OF an
organization TO fight the contagion in
this county. 1t seems To have all
ended in talk. The disease can be
prevented II not cured, by proper san
itary surroundings and watch tulness.
After IL once gets "A hold there is no
hope. That the disease Is contagious,
and spreads from contact, there is no
longer any doubt. The sputum and
excretions OF the consumptIve, are
the sources from which IL spreads. In
many cases, in fact most cases i'm the
country-littlc nor or care Is taken
TO disinfect and destroy germs. In
many sick rooms ventilation is poor

of these deadly germs--two effective

not only To members OF the house

people are ignorant-not informed
on these matters, and the plague
continues and spreads Hhe Boards
OF health should wake up and take
notice. Every citizen who values his
health and life and that OF his loved
ones and neighbors is concerned. Can
nothing be done To, at least reduce
