Sextette From Lucia
And Attorney Hooper

Atlanta, Aug. They are tell
ing an amusing story at the Federal
building on United States Attorney
Hooper Alexander, who is a great
lover of music. Nobody could un-
derstand this year why he decided
not to take his usual annual vaca-
ton until it was discovered that a
real, old-styled hurdy-gurdy which
plays the Sextette from Lucia and
the Trovatore tunes has been in
stalled in a shooting gallery in a
neighborhood beneath the District
Attorneys window so that the lyric
tunes of the Italian opera float up
ward all day long. They say he
sits there and listens to them for
hours at a time with a rapt smile
on his face.

Good Niddlins Cotton lOc

The Dodd Supply Company,
know as the poor mans friend"
are making an attractive propo-
sltlon to their supply customers
for meeting their Indebtedness
promptly. They are offering 10
cents per pound for good mid
ding cotton, and 1 cent rer
pound higher than the market
price for lower grades providing
their customers turn them over
enough cotton to pay their in
debtedness in full on or before

sufficient amount of more trade
to make up this loss to themsel-
yes. We, congratulate them in
their every effort to help out our
farmer friends.

The People Should Learn
To Discriminate
Editor, Fitzgerald Enterprise,
Fitzgerald, Georgia,
Nv Dear Sir.

A-uIUOl, HRASeEalu EuteFpFlSe,
Fitzgerald, Georgia,
My Dear Sir:
: | have read with much interest
your editorial entitled "Tamper-
ing with Human Lite" You are
perfectly right in your criticisms
of public understanding of health
topics. In the last sentence of
your editorial, you say, cit would
seem to US that the medical socie-
ties would see to it that a bunch of
crooks couldn't prey on the ignor.
ance and credulitv of the public. "
Have you stopped to consider what
would happen to the medical
societies If they attempted to en-
force the medical practice acts in
the different states fof the protec-
ton of the people? They would
Immediately be attacked as trying
to create or maintain a medical
trust" or medical monopoly" and
would be accused of selfish motives
in trying to put out of business
ignorant fakirs and charlatans who
are proving on the public health
and prosperity.
This isn't any imaginary state
ment. 1t has happened hundreds
of times all over the country un-
til the medical organizations have
gotten tired of being suspected
and accused of such motives when
they were trying to protect the
people from the worst kind Of
swindlers and harpies. In fact.
the organized medical profession
has about come TO the conclusion
that it is impossible to attempt the
punishment of these fakirs until
the people have come to have
enough knowledge of modern
scientific medicine and enough con-
tidence in educated medical men
to treat these inlpostors the same
way that fakirs and crooks in all
other lines are treated, but this
movement must come from the
public rather than from physicians.
Very truly yours,
Frederick R. Green,
Secretary Council on Health and
Public Instruction.
