LABOR SHORTAGE IN THE
SOUTH

The negro migration and the
war are charged with the south S
labor shortage, and the conse-
quent losses, actual and potentlal
to southern development. But
southern labor shortage is pretty
much like water famine in a
community which permits big
holes in the sides Of its rcser-
voirs.
The 1910 census reports the
death, during the first twelve
months df life alone, of almost 22
per cent Of negro males born
alive. With 10,000,000 negroes
in 1910 the size of this hole may
be readily calculated. For negro
females the loss in the same pc
riod is 1875 per cent-another
sizeable hole. For white babies
the loss is 1873 per cent for males
and 1912 per cent for females.
Lots of waste there, too A white
boys expectation of life at birth
is so years. negro boys "a
years. What is the migration to
this?
The fight is on in earnest. One
of Booker Washington's big, sim
pie plans was to have a yearly
Negro Health Week, when .du-
Gated negroes everywhere should
give their people a week of intcr-
sive training along hygienic and
sanitary lines. The Virginia state
board of health saw the value OF
the plan, and co-operated almost
from the first, with increasing
profit to the state. The maryland
state medical association took it
up year or two ago and With
the personal help of the governor
the faculty of Johns Hopkins, md
the colored doctors, put over
big educational campaign. Their
cooperation has continued. The
has stretched Negro Health Week
North Carolina board Of health
into a continuous campaign, COW
ering the state with permanent
county organizations, with most
encouraging results. The State
Public Health association of Tex
as has an official who gives his
whole tige to health work among
negroes, and will utilize this
year S health week to the full.
Elsewhere white medical associa-
lions are following Maryland S
lead and arranging for vigorous
cooperation with the negro doe
tors.
II war and migration es1lt in
proper care Of its resources, hui

THE REASON WHY

The latest official register OF
the United States, containing the
name and salary Of every en-
ployee of the United States, has
Just been published by the U. S.
census bureau. On page q of. the
official register will be found the
following:
Clerk to Senator Gore, How
ard NJ. Kay, $2,500.
Assistant clerk TO Senator
Gore, Mrs Nina X. Gore, $500.
Messenger to Senator Gore,
Mrs. Margaret NJ. Kay, $1,000"
Each of the above draws in ad-
dition to the salary given, a bo-
nus of $240 per annum. This is
very interesting when it is recall
ed that Howard NJ. Kay is Sena-
tor Cores brother-in-law; that
Mrs. Nina X. Gore, is the sena-
tors wife; and that Mrs. Marga-
ret NJ Nay, wife OF Howard NJ
Kay. is his sister-i -in-law.
Thus in addition to Senator
Gore S salary of $500 year, or
1923 month the members of his
family receive $5,92O, or nearly
$500 month, a total of $l3,420
a year or over $1,1O0 a month. |
This does not include the salary |
drawn by his brother, D. F. Gore,
who was on the payroll through
1ut the major portion of Senator
Gore s service; nor does it in

USE COC0ANUT OIL
FOR WASHING HAIR

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what
YOU wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared SHAM
roos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle. and is very harmful. Just
rlain mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and entirely greaseless). Is
much better than the most expen-
slve soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't
possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance or rich, creamy lather. and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out easily
and removes every particle of dust
dirt. dandruff and excessive oil
The hair dries quickly and evenly
and it leaves it fine and silky
bright, fluffy and easy to manage
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough
to last everyone in the family for
months.
