Now we want you Navy league
members of Florida to get together
to settle upon the right man as
State chairman. and to Immediately

visit of Colonel Graves. After that
is attended to, we want the or
ganization to take UP the detail Of
multiplying the membership in
Florida by ten. of getting education
al publicity, of demanding of Flor

Jacksonville is the logical head

own fields. May we ask that you
work steadily through this season in
developing preparedness enthu'-

in the arrangements for the Colonel

we are to be normally healthful
and strong. We occasionally are
doubtful about some of them, at
least so far as personal appli-
cation is concerned, but each of
us by the time we have reached
adult years should have a pretty
careful inventory of our physical
capacities. If then we have good
sense and sufficient moral cour-
age to regulate our lives by these
known limitations, we have at
least a fair chance to live as long
as we can be of any particular use
to the time when we might be-
come nuisances to the world in
general and to the family in par
ticlllar.-Exchange.

Fla. Red Cross
Seal Com. Organized

| Jacksonville. The member
ship of the Red Cross Seal Com
mission of Florida, which viii
conduct an anti-tuberculosis cam
paign throughout the state, wa:
announced today by the Nationa
| Association for the study and
prevention OF tuberculosis. DR.
Carroll H. Frink, of Jacksonville
will act as chairman and will take
charge OF the sale OF Red Cross
Christmas Seals in Florida.
The other officers and mem
bers are: Nice-chairman, Mrs. T.
V. Moore, Miami; DR.. John D.
! MacRae, Tampa; Mrs. Thomas
M. Shackleford, Tallahassee; Sec
rotary, Mrs. Walter P. Corbett,
jacksonville; Treasurer, Fred w.

Ocala; DR.. S. r. Mallory Ken
nedy; Rabbi William Alderman,
Pensacola; Miss Kate Y. John
son; w. S. Brorcin; Dr.. Louis A.
Bize, Tampa.
In speaking OF plans for the
Seal Sale, DR.. Frink said: 1--WE
are planning to put Red Cross
Seals on sale in every city and
village in the State so that ev-
eryone will be given an oppor-
tunity to participate in this health
campaign by using the seals on
letters and packages.
The need for campaign
against tuberculosis is shown BY
the tact that more than one out OF
every eight deaths in Florida is
caused by this disease, according
to the best estimates. If we had
complete death statistics for the
entire state, the figures might be
even more startling.
When we realize that tuber-
culosiS is a prevcntable and
curable disease, we know that the
Florida rate Of one death out Of |
every eleven from all causes
among white people and one out
81 every six deaths among the
>olored race is altogether too
high.
Over 100000 Red Cross
christmas Seals were sold last
ear in Florida. We expect that,
With improved financial condi-
IONS throughout the state, the
ale this year will reach at least
10000. Ninety per cent. Of the
proceeds Of the sale remains in
he state to be used in the fight
gainSt tuberculosis. The other
en- per cent goes to the Ameri-
an Red Cross"

LITTLE THINGS IN SAM.
TATION.

somewhere in the Bible there
an uncomplimentary allusion to
straining at gnats and swallowing
camels,-the pharisaical habit,
which was not confined to Bible
times, OF overlooking the weight
Ter matters of the law in the en-
torcement of it's letter.
But it is impossible to imagine
the inspired speaker as minimiz-
! ing the Importance of gnats. In
health matters there a wide va
riety of gnats that good MANY
! OF us-with most of us, in fact
don't pay very much attention to.
We build modern homes with ev
cry convenience and most of the
luxuries, and we let the architect
overlook the health-part of it,
which should make us live out
three score years and ten, and
then some. We don't clean out
the family ice box once a month.
We sleep with closed windows
for fear of a draft. We eat too
much, actually gorge ourselves,
because the cook knows how to
prepare our favorite dishes lust
the way we like them. We let
the back yard get clogged up with
rubbish that draws all the flies
that the neighbors' scrap heaps
lall to entertain. We let rats and
mice get in and infect our homes.
to say nothing of reaches and
other disagreeable bugs, because
we forget to guard against them
when we first build our homes.
We permit the mosquitoes to pes
ter us because we don't take care
that the screens over windows
and doors are kept in condition.
hey come in with the flies
the little holes and rag
sed places and bring malaria and
typhoid.
Ignoring the Importance of the
little things, perhaps because we
1ont realize the importance. or
perhaps because we never knew |
low important they are, and be-
ore we wake up to the fact of 7
,ur negligence, these same little
hin@s have become big and Sc I
louS and real troubles begin. |
