Americas Ministers to Preach
Against White Plague

Mrs. Charles Fricker and Miss Will
lie Rutherford, representing the eff
forts of the Federation of Women's
Clubs to awaken public sympathy and
support for the movement that aims
to stamp out tuberculosis, have APP
pealed to the clergymen of Americas
to fall in line with their fellow minis
ters throughout the state and on next
Sunday deliver sermons in support Of
the movement that seeks to eradicate
the great plague that yearly sweeps
untold thousands into the grave.
The idea that the body is the sane
tuary of the soul, and that it is
Christian duty to keep it in good Goa
dition is the one that it is sought 10

rance and indifference lie at the root
of the spread of the disease and the
assistance of the churches in educat-
ing and awakening the people is
what is sought
1t is quite probable that one or more
of the local clergymen will do as the
ministers of other cities in Georgia
intend doing on next Sunday and de-
vote the morning sermon to the dis
cussion of the movement to defeat and
destroy tuberculosis. Churches are
nowhere any more Indifferent to such
things, but are becoming active as
s,stans with science in its efforts 10
