in the cars and have been shipped to
the factory at Sterling from Sedgwick

would be no occasion for the SLIDING

there is no doubt but what the only

COMMUNITY BUILDING

Many times has the Grit-Ad-
vocate endeavored to point out
reasons why our people should
trade with home merchants, all
things being equal.
We have as yet failed to see
any reason why they should not
do so. II is a matter of commu-
nifty building; it is sort of
community interest proposition.
That which helps the individ-
ual IN a measure helps the com
munity in which he lives; and
likewise that which helps the
community in measure helps
the individual For neither is
Independent of the other. We
may say We are: but we are
sadly mistaken We are of ne
cessity lnterdependent.
The man who sells shoes looks
to the tailor or clothing mer-
chants for his clothes, and the
tailor looks TO the shoeman for
his footwear. The butcher looks
to the baker for his bread and
wee versa.
No man therefore is altogeth-
cr independent No man lives
entirely to himself. Even the
nomad of the desert depends
upon others.
Then how much better it is for
all if We shall work together. If
We help to build up our neigh
bar, he is in a position to re
turn the help. but if we help to
build up some other community
by sending our money to it. we
are virtually taking bread out
of our own mouths.
All of which resolves itself
into tn. one great idea

SANITARY NOTES
HEALTH ORGANIZATION.
Liberty VS.. License.

GtOSTty vs. 1sSSuSSs
It is timely for all people to stop and
consider what is the basis on which
are built organizations for better
health. In Pensacola at the present
time many men and women of the able
thinking type are not at all clear in
their minds as to what it is all about
They have been told that the city is
to be cleaned up" and this to them
means making things look nicer" 1t
is stated on good authority that on
matters of sanitation the medical
members of a community are about
ten years behind and the rest of the
people about twenty years. This may
be due to the fact that once old theor-
les are planted in the popular mind
they are hard to root out.
Hence dirt has been given a sani-
tary prominence sometimes much be-
yond the weight it should carry. Still
there is a half truth about it. But it
would be better if we separate truth
from error and discriminate between
what is actually dangerous and what
is merely unpleasant. If we go looking
for dirty places go to the backyard
and street for the unpleasant only as a
general rule.
Certain things are dangerous def
nitely; Above all the disease spread
ing privy vault, in a lesser degree the
neglected manure pile where breeds 80
per cent of the disease bearing fly.
stagnant water breeds mosquitoes
which are the only means of carrying
malaria and yellow fevers. Personal
uncleanliness is the greatest single
factor in the spread of our common
contagious diseases.
Dirt then should make us afraid be-
cause dirty surroundings and dirty
habits usually go together. You gen.
orally find that a city with dirty
streets is one controlled by indifferent
or slovenly people, and sanitarians
have come to fear this kind because
they are so dilatory.
To gain his legitimate ends RI.
health officer must keep his balance
and at the same time hit hard at the
most vital points of attack. To gain
popular support he must recognize
what forms of uncleanliness are the
most Objectionable and attack these
first. He may put on campaign
for better street cleaning but he will
accomplish more for the public health
II he secures better sewers and abso-
iutely aoollshes open privy vaults. Do
not expend valuable energy on super
flcial conditions, at first at least Wage
war on the known mode of spread of
disease such as dirty hands and food
may endanger others. plainly tell him
that democracy does not mean license
| to behave without regard to the well
fare of others. Remember this when
any man in Pensacola rails and rants
against these new tangled ideas of
imported health officials"
