The WOmans Club


There could be little progress in the
war against disease but for the work
of the baeteriologist who. ike an able
military strategis,. but using a micro
scope instead Of a spSglsss. discovers
our enemies. the minute organisms that
prey upon the human system. and
works out the best methods Of repelling
their attacks. DR.. Lillian Herald
South. head of the Kentucky State
meteorological Laboratory at Bowling
Green, is said to be the only woman to
hold the important position of State
Baeteriologist. She has specialized in
bacteriology ever since her graduation
from the Woman's MEDICAL College in
Philadelphia in 1902. IL was largely in
consequence of her demonstration Of
the ravages of that wicked parasite.
the hookworm. that the state suthori-
ties, aided BY the Rockefeller Commits
sion, are carrying on a systematic cam
paign to extirpate the hookworm dis
ease. In connection with her labora-
tory Doctor South conducts the only
Pasteur Institute in Kentucky. where
persons bitten by supposedly rabid
animals are examined and treated free
of charge. Many of those who come
to her for observation and treatment
are poor mountain folk who have few
enjoyments: and by taking them on
auto trips and to moving picture shows
Doctor South wins their confidence and
affection. and makes their three weeks
at the institute pleasant and memoir
able chapter in their lives.
The Woman's Club has written DR..
South asking her to come to Lancaster
and hope soon to announce the date
when We will have with US our gifted
State Bacteriologist.
That the club women of America are
not waiting for full suffrage before
taking an active part in civic better
ment work is proven by the earnest
efforts Of thousands Of women in local
''Clean Up and Paint Up" campaigns
in practically every state in the Union.
The men are too busy, or too chesty"
said one of these women, ITO see the
the need of or to do simple beautifica-
ton and sanitation work. And yet
that work is vital to the health of
thousands and to the progress Of the
community in better living conditions
to keep pace with increasing popula-
ton.
There was time, when pink teas
and gossip characterized our local club
meetings. But that time i $ past.
There are a million things for the bet
terment OF the town that We are able
to do. and We are trying to do them as
fast as We can get TO them. The
Clean Up and Paint Up campaign, in
which We are working shoulder to
shoulder with the men, embodies big
batch of improvements we have had in
mind. This campaign seems to be
fortunate combination Of ideals. Clean
Up and Paint Up. 1t gives US work
to do now, with definite program TO
start things off. and with absolutely
no end of possibilities in permanent
constructive effort. And the best of
il is that this campaign simply forces
the men to work with US. A success.
full campaign means an increased de- |
mand for many kinds Of merchandise.
means conservation of property. means
increased realty values-it means a
better business town and a better home |
town. Why shouldn't the men lend
hand?
