DEATHS Two TO ONE
IN CITY and TOWNSHIP
TWENTY TWO MORE BOYS
THAN GIRLS WERE BORN
DURING PAST YEAR.

Births in the city of Conway and
Cadron township outnumbered deaths
by more than two to one during the
year 1915, according to the records OF
DR.. George S. Brown, county health
officer and registrar for the city and
township during that period. In both
registration districts the total deaths
were 108 and the total births 2.36. OF
this number IA deaths and 94 births
occurred in Conway and GA deaths
and 142 births occurred in the town
ship outside of the city. The net
natural increase in population of
both districts was 1913.
The record of births show that %
more boys than girls were born in
the two districts during the year
Among the white people, however, six
more new girls than boys arrived, but
among the negroes boy babies were
largely in the majority.
In the city of Conway there were
born during the year 81 white males,
AZ white females, seven negro males
and eight negro females In the town
ship outside of the city there were
born 33 white males, "a white fe-
males, so negro males and % negro
females.
The past year was the first full
year in which vital statistics have
been kept and comparative statistics
are therefore not available. The new
health laws require all physicians to
report births and deaths within a
certain number of days to the local
registrars, severe penalties being
fixed for violations of the law.
