the men now enlisted can DO trans

that only 10000 ma. q month can be-
sent. Many of the hsttalions now
authorized are much below full
strength, and 1t will be months be-

HEALTH OFFICER FOR
GREENSv|LLE COUNTY


Taking the lead among the coun-
ties OF Virginia, Greensville and the
town of Emporia, after May ] 5, will
have a trained santarian as health
officer to devote his whole time to the
work. DIR. f. j. Flanagan. one of the
district directors of the State Board
of Health, has been named for the
new position, and will take office next
month.
Greensville. according 10 an an
nounccment OF the State Board of
Health today, becomes the first Vir-
ginia county to have whole time

The supervisors of the county some
time ago arranged with the State
Board of Health for an intensive COM
munlty campaign similar to those
conducted in several counties OF the
State in cooperation with the Inter-
national Health Commission.
Or. f. l.. Flanagan was sent 70 the
county by The State Board, and was
most cordially received. In Emporia,
from which point his work in the
county radiated so much enthusiasm
was aroused that a unique heath
revival" was held. Meetings were
conducted nightly for week, and
prominent sanitarians from different
parts of the State addressed large au'
diences.
Since that time, the desire Of the
county for a wholo-time health officer
has steadily grown and the action of
the supervisors in naming DIR. F'1ana-
gan is said to meet with universal APP
prevail
Or. Flanagan is graduate of the
Medical College Of Virginia and has
been with the State Board OF Health
for two years, during which time he
has been in charge of various sue
cessful units in the campaign for
community sanitation. HIS work has
been highly commended by officers of

The International News Service wired
ex-President Taft asking him II he had
been correctly quoted and has received

she continued the policy causing the
severance. 1t would be difficult to avoid
