NEGROES WILL
fight PHTHISIS
Georgia Has League, and
Plan May Extend TO
Other States

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The Govern
ment Is taking a hand in the movement
to check the spread of tuberculosis
among the negroes of the South. The
Public Health and Marine Hospital
Service is showing an interest i'm the
subject and has just made public a
report from one Of its surgeons-Dr.
c. +. Wcrtcnbaker-on the organizi,
tion of state anti-tuberculosis league
for negroes In Georgia.
1t is the hope of the Public Health
and Marine Hospital Service that this
action i'm Georgia win be followed by
similar action i'm other Southern states.
Tho report emphasizes the fact that
tuberculosis is prevalent among the ne
groes Nearly four times as many Of
them die of the disease as white pee
Pile
one method by which it is proposed
to reach the colored people of the
South is through their churches. The
Georgia state League is actively en-
gagged in organizing church leagues
throughout the state. In Savannah
the negro ministers and the negro ply
sicians have mdorsed the movement
and the work is being carried on with
enthusiasm.
Dr. Wertenbaker's efforts to organ
ize for the prevention of tuberculosis
among the negroes began with lee
ture before the State Industrial College
at savannah, before an audience COM
posed entirely of negroes, and includ
ing the faculty and students of the
college, ministers. physicians and other
prominent negroes from Savannah and
adjacent places. and several hundred
negro farmers from different parts OF
the state.
Each to Wear a Button.
IL was decided that each member OF
/ the league should wear a button bear
ing the words "Colored Anti-Tubercu.
/ losis League" surrounding double rec
cross. Dues are required and out oi
/ the fund thus raised members Of the
league that have tuberculosis are treat
/ ed, and information TO fight the disease
/ IS disseminated.
A feature OF the movement is thu
circulation of rules Of simple but EN-
I cacious sort for the prevention an'
cure of tuberculosis.

SPITE WALLS.
Ever see spite walr' or "spite
fenceT"
This is how it sometimes comes
about
The dog belonging TO John Jones
persists in loafing over the lawn OF
Tom Smith. Jones' next door neighbor,
and digging real holes for imaginary
gophers. Besides. Jones keeps chick
ems, and Smith has a garden.
Neighborly comfy is strained.
Finally Mrs. Smith calls on Mrs.
Jones to suggest-incidentally to in
quiring after the health Of the fami-
ly-that the dog be tied and would
they kindly fix it so the chickens
would not care to wander from their
own firesIdes.
Mrs. Jones agrees in perfectly good
faith that the dog is a trial and the
chickens have an itinerant dispssi-
tlon difficult to restrain. She smiling
ly mentions the fact also that the
Smith children are little careless in
their distinction between mine and
thine. Moreover. Mrs. Smith good hu-
moredly calls attention to the fact
that Smiths old tomcat Is a disrepu-
table character and given to dissipa-
tion, whereupon Mrs. Jones, in per
feet good humor. also pledges reform.
Time moves on. There is little love
lost between the Smith and Jones fami-
ly, neighbors.
One day Smith is caught in the very
act of wringing the neck of Jones'
predatory rooster.
When Jones comes home that night
he protests because OF the assassina-
ton, whereat Smith volunteers ad-
vice concerning the keeping OF roost-
ers at home. And Jones retorts about
dirty children" Perhaps there is no
clash Of fists. but
Up goes the high spite fence!
We are not all Of us like Jones and
Smith. but most Of us build spite
walls, not of boards. but Of words and
acts.
Some OF us-the exclusive ones
build our fences so high our neighbors
cannot see us or we them.
Some OF useless exclusive, but
grouchy-build our walls just high
enough to serve notice on the neigh
bors that we are a little bit better
than they are.
