gravity of the situation. and that they
realize that II will require the strong

ton between the local communities
and the State government The local
community should undoubtedly &C.
cept a due share of the burden of re-
sponsibility: and yet the interests of
various communities are too intcr-
woven and the problem is too vast
and far-reaching to be left to the
communities without state support be-
hind them.
The commissions suggestion that
legislation be passed imm ediatelY en-
powering the counties to build local
camps and to employ nurses seemg
wise, taken in connection with the
recommendations of the commission
regarding the States share in the
work, ! have been particularly glad
TO see that the commission has put
the establishment of a negro sana
torium first in the list of recommen-
datiohs.
The statistics furnished US foun-
dalton for this recommendation are
too alarming to be passed by. The
PROPORTION of domestic servants to be
seuha among tns negro deaths should
arrest the attention Of all citiE~ns OF
the Comm on wealth. No Virginia
household is safe from the danger OF
infection brought in by negro servants.
We must fight the disease among
negroes, not only to help a weaker

children under the direction of Mrs

strains of temperance song and then
sang Keep the Host Advancing TIL

Mr. Hoge eloquently championed the
temperance cause and the pending pro-

his admonition to the people to beware

glade that his native county CLoulsa)

want alcohol sold even for medicine

the people should get behind the bill
