must provide a landing field capable
of accommodating all types of air.

from the east to Florida during the

sunstroke is a rare occurrence in
| this section of the country, but that
| is what occurred in Wayne county
| recently. One man was stricken and
| eight others in addition to woman
and a girl were victims. 1t was
thought these people were suffering
from malaria, and upon the request
of the state health officer, Dr.. Aber-
crombie, with headquarters in At
lanta; DR.. R. L. DeSaussure, health
officer Of Glynn county, went over
to Fairfield about fourteen miles
highway, accompanied by Dr.. G.
| Coaster, in charge of malarial work,
to investigate conditions in that
| community.
Upon arrival at the big plantation
| occupied by the Firms, it was evident
that the search for the cause of the
| malarial condition was at an end. In
| the center Of the plantation was a
| large pond, and this was thought to
be the malarial incubator, but thor
| stocked with minnows, and there was
not the slightest trace Of mosquito
| larvae to be found.
1t was learned that one of the
| members had been carried to Jesup
for treatment for malaria, and died
| way home. In the course 70 their
| investigation, Drs. De Saussaure and
| Coester learned that the Finlanders
| had been working. in the fields at
all hours of the day, bareheaded and
| thinly clad. some shirtless, and that
| they were suffering from sunstroke
and not maraliar fever. The Fins
| coming from a frigid climate and
| not having becomeN acclimated, VEN
| turing in the sun bare-headed, in the
| hottest part of the day, were sub
| jecting themselves to an ordeal that
| would prove too much for any of hte
| natives accustomed to such condi-
| tions. The newcomers have been adj
vised that if they persist in working
| in the heat Of the day, it would be
wise OF wear their headgear.
This is the first case of sunstroke
| that has been reported in this sec
| ton in MANY decades. if ever before.
