CONTROLLING THE HOOKWORM
IN THE SOUTH

The annual report of The Rookie
Teller Sanitary Commission, with
headquarters at Washington, indicates
that as a result of the work done I'M
der the direction of the boards of
health, Of eleven Southern States
4S0,951 persons were microscopically
examined during 1913. This means
that more than 1873 persons were
microscopically examined for each
work day during the year; an in
crease of 60 per cent over the record
of any previous years. In the central
and field laboratories there have been
examined to date S5S,377 persons.
The number of persons treated dur
| ing the year is given 1927, an aver
age of 616 persons treated for each
working day; a reduction of IA per
cent from the record of 1912. Con-
sidering that the number of persons
examined shows an increase of 60 per
cent and that the number of persons
requiring treatment a reduction of
II per cent, these figures are signi-
ficant. OF the 1927 persons treated
during 1913, 66,317 were treated and
reported by practicing physicians, and
1890 persons were treated by mem
bers of the staff. The total number
of persons treated to date is 9,107.
Infection surveys, based on the exami-
nation of minimum of two hundred
country children taken at random be-
tween the ages of 6 and 1S years, have
been made in Alb counties. A total
of 415,250 rural children have been
examined, an average of 1,005 per
county. The percentage of infection
found among them was, for those ex-
amined prior to 1913, So per cent; for
those examined up to Dec. 81, 1913,
43 per cent-a reduction of II per
cent in the degree of infection record
ed. Sanitary surveys have been COM
pleted in sol counties, based on the
inspection of an average of 37S homes
to the county, Z total of 1879, 5S6 homes
inspected. OF these, 95,9SS, of 80
per cent, had no kind of privy. Pro-
gress in sanitary reform is not as
rapid as one might like to see it. 1t
is encouraging to note, however, that
although the cost of installing SAM
tary closets means a considerable item
to the poorer families, improved clio
sets are being built at homes and at

Sunday every church in Prescott ex-
poets to be filled with hundreds of
people who have long since gotten out
of the habit of sitting quietly in a

be preached in all churches, and par
ticular stress is being placed upon
hardened old sinners who have forgot
ten what they learned at mothers
knee, 10 get them again into the fold
As this movement has resulted in rec

GEORGE DICKSON
HAS NEW SCHEME
He Would Number livery Baseball Player
50 That There Would BE Ne Question
in Minds Of Eans of Lineup.

George n. Dickson has baseball scheme
that is being seriously considered by several
Managers Dickson believes that the pub
JIG would enjoy seeing the games and the
various players parts played in the games
If q system OF numbering every player was
number that is given 10 him at the start
OF the season
For example if in the entire league there
are IG0 different players. every player could
have his own number from one 10 100 Op-
posite the names Of the players in the score
program would be printed the same number
that the player on the diamond wears on
his arm
The advantages OF this scheme Dickson
thinks are many. He said fan often reads
traded from another team The ian. know
ing this players number. would easily and
instantly spot him the minute he came upon
the diamond Dickson also SAYS that often
the program says that Brown. Smith. Jones.
White and Doe the pitchers.
There are lot Of fans. according 20
Dickson. who can't tell which one Is really
pitching. but by the number system every
body would know without delay and annoy
ance- Dickson also says that according 20
the baseball manager It is the star player
who Is the drawing card Dickson believes
that IL the number system were used the
spectators would know who was on the
bench well on the field and thus know
whether any stars were not in the game and
exactly at what time such stars might be
pressed into service
Il believe that BAN PLAYERS the same as
motor cars in a race should have their NUM-
bers.H says Dickson 1T Is very simple
matter TO keep track OF the cars and AMI
their positions, how they drop out OF the
race by their numbers and even the un-
piified manner Of getting next through the
number
