housE ELY A HuMAN PERIL

HOUSE FLY A HUMAN PERIL
 The danger of the typhoid or house fly in the carriage of desease has been demonstrated, and yet it is allowed to spread bacteria freely over our food supplies in the markets and in the kitchen and dining rooms of private houses"
 Thus writes Dr. L O. Howard ln communication to tfe National Geo. graphic Society. He continues:
 Even if the typhoid or house fly were a creature difficult to destroy the general failure on the part of communities to make any efforts what ever to reduce its number could prop erIy be termed criminal neglect: but since 1t is comparatively an easy mat ter to do away with the plague Of flies, this neglect becomes an evidence of ignorance or of carelessness in re- gard to disease producing filth which to the informed mind constitutes @ serious blot on civilized methods Of life.
 If we allow the accumulation of filth we will have house flies, and if we do not allow 1t to accumulate we will have no house flies. With the careful collection of garbag in cans and the removal of the contents at more frequent intervals than 10 days anu HAAA AhN F-0FNA ANtLAaA-AAA A@ 1A attoirs, and more particularly with the proper regulation of stables in which horses are kept the typhoid fly will be- come rare species.
 we have known that typhoid or house fly may carry typhoid fever. As latte cholera. dysentery. cholera nor bur. and other intestinal diseases: it may carry the bacilli of tuberculosis certain eye diseases: 1t is everywhere present. and it is disposed Of with comparative ease. It is the duty of every individual to guard so far as possible against the occurrence bf flies upon the premises. IL is the duty oi every community. through its board of health. to spend money in the war fare against this enemy of mankind. This duty is as pronounced as though the community were attacked by bands of ravenous wolves

West Virginia Capitol Building
Burns.

Charleston, w Va, Jan. 3-Thc
Capitol Building Of West Virginia was
destroyed by fire late today. One labor
er was killed, fireman injured SER
lously and several other fire-fighters
hurt when section of rocf. under
which they were standing, caved in.
The spectacular nature of the fire
was enhanced when much ammunition
stored on the third floor of the build
ing exploded.
Within four hours after the fire was
discovered the capitol building con-
tanning the governors office, state de-
partment and priceless records" was
nothing but a mass of smoking ruins.
State officials made no attempt to es-
innate the less, but they said that the
records destroyed, upon which no in
surance was carried, could not be re-
placed and that it was impossible to
estimate their value.
Some state records were saved by
clerks, officials and firemen, who car
ried them from the burning building.
The capitol building was erected in
1881 at cost of more than $500 zoo.
State officials today said that the
building was valued at approximately
$780, 900.

we learned of man who was still

he never again had his saw teeth

Lack 81 Respect for WomahilO6d AS
sailed by Bishop Nicholson

Chicago, Jan. "We are living
in an age OF bold and adventurous
men, in which there is an appalling
lack of respect for womanhood." de-
elared Bishop Thomas Nicholson, OF
the Methodist Episcopal Church, in an
appeal to the ministry to lift W its
voice against the moral abandon o..
the people.
Think of the moral Iaxity shown IN
the present day styles OF woman's
dress and CT our social entertainments
ana public demeanor. Think of 1000
supposedly respectable citizens OF
Chicago sitting in. some of our most
elegant theatre buildings and witness
ing the present-day suggestive perfor-
mances without uttering a protest.
People have more leisure than ever
before. Men who care.n more about
religion and morals than 2 dog, are
making themselves multimillionajres
cut of the recTeations Of the people. Is
it any wonder the divorce courts arc
.over-crOWded?
Look at the cheapness in which
human life is held. Five hundred and
ffty-nine persons were killed in the
streets Of Chicago last year that we
might continue to run automobiles. We
have been willing to see 200 aviators
killed in the experiments which gave
us the airplane.

lives were given in war for the pre-

Bishop Nicholson suggested that the
churches get together and select
group of men to confer with city Off
Gals to formulate ways and means to
rid the city of immoral stage pr0duC-
lions and to curb crime.

ANOTHER BRIGHT IDEA.

The American Federation of Labor
proposes to build and equip college
which. will train students according
to it's ideals, and in which the
s'trnth" as seen by organized labor
may be brought home to the young.
That is very we'll if labor is to pay
the, freight. Anybody is entitled to
run college if. he pays the expenses.
But when the American Fedora
ton Of Labor proposes to take
charge of the public, school system il,
order that it's side of labor disputes
may be taught in these schools, we
think the people will rebel. The PEI.
pie who pay the taxes, and most Of
these are. not of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor, will hardly consent
to continue to appropriate money to
run public schools, if the teachers
are, to teach the pupils that the en-
ployers are to furnish money for en-
terprises but the employees must have
the right to make all the rules for the
running of these enterprises; are to
teach these pupils, for whose tuition
the employers are paying, that the
business of everyone Of them is: to
get out in; life and get as much out
of the people who pay f9r;the schools
as it is possible to get, and with as
little labor as possible; and at the
same time are to teach the children
of the farmers that it is the duty Of
the farmers to pay high freight rates
on cotton, guand. and every other ar
ticle of commerce, .in,order that the
members Of American Federation of
Labor may continue to obtain twice
as a common laborer, or farmer, gets
as a common llaborer, orfarmer, gets
for sixteen hours work.: The idea is
bright one. Perhaps the people who
have already stood for many exact
ions for organized labor will stand
for this but we hardly think so.

THE CALHOUN HIGHWAY.

The proposed highway from Ath-
ems, Ca, to Cheraw, in this state
which would connect with national
highway, we believe promises much to
the people in this section. The high
way is to be constructed by the
state highway departments of Geor-
gia and South Carolina, and ultimate
ly is to become national highway.
This latter fact means that the high
way sooner or later will be construct
ed of some permanent road material
and that it will be in reality high
way, whatever may be the fate of
roads built on other plans:
Believing this, we say that the
7 road promises much to this section.
AS pointed out by the letter being
sent out by the Secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce this road Of
fers a means of marketing every pro-
duct of the farm. If we are to go to
food products, as it seems we must,
we must have a market. for these
things. With a permanent highway
to Athens, Atlanta, Greenville, Raj
e:gh and other cities of like import
ance, we may carry our products to
market where they may be sold at
fair prices. A farmer with good
truck may make the, trip to, Atlanta
in three or four hours, deliver his
produce to broker and return with
his money the same day. This means
of carrying offers many advantage:
over carriage by the railroads. In
stead of having a train but every
other day, and one which goes te
Athens or Winder today, and to At
lanta tomorrow, and which unload:
perhaps the next day, and in the
meantime loses a portion of the
shipment, We shall have orucii.s lead
ing to market at any hour in the day
we choose, and we may deliver safe
" and at perhaps less expense. Henry
Ford says that the railroads for Ger
tain kinds of carrying are obsolete
and it may be true.
