HELEN KELLER DAY
Worlds Most Wonderful Woman to
Be at Conservation Exposition,
September 80.

Some twenty-six years ago there
was born a child in Tuscumbia, Ala,
girl who was christened Helen. Her
parents name was Keller. At the age
of nineteen months this child, after
siege of illness, became deaf, dumb
and blind.
Now the name of Helen Keller is
known in every quarter of the globe,
for she is undoubtedly the most won.
derful woman of modern or ancient
times. Helen Keller, though deaf,
dumb and blind, has been graduated
with highest honors from Radcliffe
College; she has been taught to speak
and in Knoxville and at the National
Conservation Exposition on September

liver an oral address.
With Miss Keller will come to Knox.
vile Mrs. John Macy, her devoted
friend and teacher, who has been with
her almost from infancy. Mrs. Macy
will also deliver an address on Helen
Keller Day, and she will tell of the
struggles of this wonderful girl; will
tell of the gradual dawning of the per.
ceptions of the girl and of the way
she was taught what things meant and
what things were and are-for, re.
member, this girl never heard a word
spoken that she can remember, never
saw a thing that she can remember.
Already there has been expressed a
general desire by thousands of men
! and women to see and to hear this
prodigy. She will be listened to by an
immense throng and Helen Keller Day
| will be still another of the exposition
big days.

Two of the most important depart
ments of the big National Conserva-
ton Exposition, in Knoxville, are the
live stock and agricultural depart
ments. The agricultural displays are
quartered in the new East Tennessee
building, one of the handsomest of all
of the exposition buildings and one Of
the best buildings for the holding Of a
show ever constructed.
No one who gazes on the agricul-
tural show, whether he or she be Of
the North or of the South, has reason
to feel ashamed of the exhibits there
made. They are of the South, are
these exhibits, and they tell the story
Of the Sorths greatness as an agricul-
tural region most eloquently.
Blount, Seyier, Campbell, Carter,
Roane, Franklin and Shelby are among
the counties represented by county dis
plays, and all are striving for the
$1,000 cash premium offered for the
best and most beautifully arranged ex-
hibit from any county in any southern
state. Despite the handicap of the
drought and long-continued hot spell,
the agricultural exhibits are very fine.
All of them are most tastefully az.
ranged, and all of them show to good
advantage.
The singleentry class, such as
wheat, oats, barley, rye and other
small grains, has filled nicely. The
Corn Show that will be opened the
week of October will be the best
corn show ever held in the South. Dis.
plays will be made by different coun.
ties in East, Middle and West Tennes.
see, and also by counties in a number
of other southern states.
Also Bee Department.
The bee department is an innoya
ton and will attract great deal OF
attention from visitors. The premium
list for the agricultural department is
large and it has attracted a largo mum
Der of entries.
Prospects for a splendid live stock
cAulull ludl VIII COule IHe week OF
October are very fiattering. Local
breeders are going to take advantage
Of the opportunity of advertising East
Tennessee, and they are going to meet
strong competition from the breeders
from other parts of both South and
North. Over 100 entries already have
been made in the dairy cattle depart
ment alone. Manager John A. Jones
is authority for the statement that he
could close the entry lists any day
and not have single empty stall OF
pen on the grounds.
One innovation of the Live Stock
Show will be an arena in which the
judging of the blooded animals will
be done. There will be seats a-plenty
around this arena so that the publit
may inspect the animals as they are

TQNS|L|T|S MAKES
CHILDREN STUPID
Health Board Issues Bulletin Urg-
ing Parents to Take Precaution.
Operations Recommended.

If one of your children is back
get a physician to look at its tonsfls
at once, is the advice given by
the Georgia State Board of Health,
in a bulletin issued Thursday. The
chronic or acute disease of the tonsils
is serious and dangerous.
The enlarged tonsils may perma-
nently stunt the child's physical
growth and retard its mental devel
opment. The State Board of Health
urges parents whose children are so
suffering to have them examined and
operated on, if necessary, by a skilled
physician or surgeon.
Operations in nearly all cases re-
suit in complete cures, while failure
to operate may leave an otherwise
normal child stupid and sickly
through life.
Injustice to Sufferer.
Many boy or girl has been put
down as lazy and good for moth
ing" and has been unjustly pun
lSHeu at nome ana at school, when
the real trouble was nothing but en-
larged tonsils.
Children suffering in this way some
times have been considered halfwitted
because of the pen-hanging mouth and
silly expression, which often results
from the obstructed passages In the
throat and noSe-their whole life marred
for the lack Of a comparatively simple
operation.
The parent who fails to inquire into
such symptoms and to have the child
properly treated is guilty of neglect thai
Is almost criminal
is Contagious Disease,
The second most important thing for
the public to realize about tonsilitis,
says the board, is the fact that acute
tonsilitis is contagious and that per
sons suffering from il should be iso-
lated and some precautions taken to
prevent its spread, as is done in case
of other contagious diseases.
One case OF acute tonsiitis may not
justify an operation. 1t is in chronic
cases or in cases where the acute form
recurs frequently that operations are
absolutely necessary.
In addition to the acute and chroni,
there is also a third common form of
the disease, called suppurative tonsilitis
or quinSy.

DIXIE AUTO MEN To
SEE ATLANTA SHOW
Exhibition AlI-Southern in Scope.
Factories to Send Agents,
Paying Expenses.

Practically every automobile agent
and salesman in the Atlanta territory.
which comprises several Southern
States, will come to the Atlanta Au-
tomobile Show, which will open al
the Auditorium November and con-
tinue a week.
This information has come to the
officers of the Atlanta Automobile and
Accessory Association in reports from
factory representatives travelling the
South and urging the agents to visit
Atlanta.
Several factories will send every
dealer in the territory to the Atlanta
show and pay all the expenses" said
one local branch manager Thursday.
They consider such a trip equal to a
visit to the factory, and less eXpen-
sive. The factories are rushing new
models for the show and Atlanta mo-
tor enthusiasts will see new ideas
and designs never shown in any city
before.
Il think there will be a notahe ab-
sence of freaks in cars and accesso-
ries this season. Cars are becoming
standardized rapidly. Perhaps the
newest wrinkle will be the two speed
axle and the electric gear shift, in
which the driver merely presses Il
button on the steering wheel 10
change his gears, and the old levers
are abolished. This with the wire
wheels and a number of self starting
devices, will be of especial interest.
THE flower parade, to be held on
one day of the show, is something new.
Every motor owner, and especially the
women. will be invited to enter
decorated car in the parade and prizes
will be given for the handsomest dec
orations. And Sousas Band, Of
course, will be the greatest drawing
card We ever have had"
