Looks Like Big Year.

Judging from all Indications this valley will be more prosperous
this year than for several years. We are not handing out a bunch of
hot air, either. There is certain matters taking place that lead us to
believe that we are going to have a better business than is usual.
While things have been a little quiet as a whole, this town and valley
have suffered less than nearly any community that We have had re-
ports from. Business has been good, although we would like to have
seen twice at many men employed in the different business, as has
been. We are candid in saying that we consider that this year will
be better from a good many natural causes, than some of the previous
years.

HAVE YOU BOUGHT YOUR RED
CROSS SEALS?

There is no worthier thought or SEN
timent for approaching Yuletide than
that represented by the Red Cross
penny seals. They are the harbingers
of the years kindliest festival, the
truest reminders that Christmas should
be a season of good will to all man
and of particular beneficence to those
whose lives are wrapped in suffering
and shadow.
The annual sale of these seals was
instituted as means of raising
through small contributions from a
great number of people funds for the
relief and prevention of tuberculosis
There are humanitarian causes IA
which practically all can share. It's
appeal is universal and it is pitched
upon a plane so broad that the hum
blest as well as the greatest can rally
to it's support. Other funds for chaT-
ity are raised through dollars or hun
dreds of dollars, but this is raised
through pennies. 1t is the most pop
ular and certainly one of the timeliest
and most important of all endeavoEs
for the betterment of mankind
The people of Americus should deal
generously this year with the Red
Cross seals The community is more
prosperous than it has ever been III
all it's favored career. 1t is able to
support and originate great enterpris-
es Surely it will not neglect this
modest yet urgent call for human
helpfulness!
Whatever amount of money is real
lied from the sale of the esals in this
city will be applied to local needs AMI
problems. 1t will be spent through
well-directed methods to relieve SUI
fering that lies about our own doors
and to make the health of the entire
community more secure. 1t will be a
social investment as we'll as Chris
tian Offering in humanity's name. Ev-
cry business, every home, every indi-
vidual should buy Red Cross seals and
use them on letters and parcels dur-
ing Christmas month.

STAND UP STRAIGHT AND
AVOID TUBERCULOSIS

The first essential in the avoidance
Of tuberculosis of the lungs, or con-
sumption, is to keep the lungs strong,
so that if the germs are breathed n
they can do no harm. One of The
most important things in keeping the
open SO that the lungs can be prop
erly used. If the body is dropped or
stoops, or if the shoulders are al
lowed to drag forward Ground shout
der), or if the head is carried forward
instead of we'll back over the should
ers, the chest must be f1attened, the
breathing must be shallow and the
lungs not being freely used, become
weak. 1t is in this type of chest that
tuberculosis usually begins. The COLI
sumptive is usually narrow chested,
with dropped shoulders and with t1e
head-craned forward. While the de-
yelopment OF strong, well-formed
chest is one of the most important
factors in preventing tuberculosis, the
same things ito be desired if the dis
ease has one started. Not only should
should we live in the open, but we
should stand up straight and learn to
throw big chest" so that the lungs
can grow strong and the fresh air be
taken in. The runner, the singer, or
aEy one who is obliged to make sus-
tanned effort is taught to stand and
sit with the chest high, so that the
lungs can be used to the best advan-
tage, and if every one would do the
same thing there would be less tu-
berculosis, because there would be
fewer weak hunks.
