but this is not enough. Instead OF
swatting the fly the better way is to
starve the fly. To starve the fly leads
hack again to the main question of get
ting rid of the filth. Since flies feed
upon filth, il naturally follows they
will starve to death if there is no filth
left upon which they can feed.
Question: What is the practical solu-
ton?
The answer: A campaign to clean
up and to eradicate.
To make such campaign effective il
must be systematic and widespread.
To make campaign systematic and
widespread there must first be intelli-
gent organization.
A nucleus for such a campaign in
community could be found in an or
ganization by the local lodges of our
fraternaI beneficiary societies.
Every member should be vitality and
selfishly interested.
a flyIess city means city that has
been freed OF filth. city free from
flies and filth means a city with low
er death rate.
Here is a brief outline for plan OF
organization:
/. Have every fraternal benehc-
iary society in city or town appoint
a committee. Have these several COM
mittees meet and perfect a central or
sanization in which every society IN
the city shall be represented.
>. Have this central committee OF
organization appoint publicity com
mittee to prepare articles for the
local press. Through these articles
a. ouse the sanitary conscience of tle

the home on the boulevard simply TO
illustrate the fact that with flies about
no home is safe. The boulevard home
may not have in II a dozen flies, while
the cottage nearer the alley may have
a dozen dozen; but If only one of the
first dozen be the fly loaded with dead
~ germs it may prove as deadly as
all the other dozen dozen.
Not alone is the sleeping babe en-
dangered.
The fly that creeps over the face OF
a tubercular patient in the palatial
home, in the cottage. or hospital. may
deposit deadly bacillus on the lips OF
healthy person in the house next
door. marking another victim for the
great white plague.
The great preventive is TO be found
in the elimination of the fly so there
will be no need for screen at door or
window.
Can the fly be exterminated? Is it
possible to make city, or even a
district. flyless?
The answer can be in the affirma-
tive II the breeding places of the fly
are first eliminated. Filth and flies
are almost Synonymous. Each stands
for the other. Perhaps to put IL more
accurately Il should be said that II
there we're no filth there would be no
flies.
Since Il is known that hlth is
always with us. the practicable
thing to do is first To clean up the filth.
For just IN proportion as filth is elimi-
mated the ny will be eradicated. Many
flies have been and may be extermi-
mated by a swat the n.y. campaign.

If there is no appetite created our counters

THE open field for the creation of appetite is
among the boys. After grown and

expended in treats to the boys now will return in

Appearance Here Of Dancer
Would Be objectionable,

The tango and a tango dancer in
the person of Evelyn ThaW were
again in the limelight Monday fol-
lowing severe attacks upon them in
two Atlanta churches Sunday. Father
Ra pier at the Sacred Heart Church
admonished his hearers to beware of
the fascinating step unless in the flu
ture they should have to answer,heav-
lily for their transgression. He said
his sermon was not inspired by the
recent papal ban on the dance, issued
by Cardinal Pompille, but by his
own feelings in the matter.
At the Moore Memorial Church DIR.
A. r. Holderby urged that the
churches of Atlanta protest against
the appearance of Evelyn Thaw in the
tango dance in Atlanta.
The tango dance is disgraceful
enough in itself" he said, and should
not be countenanced by decent So
ciety, but when it is to be presented
by such a woman as Evelyn Thaw
