HEALTH WEEK IN DALLAS.

If every other city in Texas has
been as delighted N the observance
of National Negro Health Week as
Dallas has, great good has been ac-
complished.
Seldom ever has such a movement
received as concerted and hearty
response from leaders of all walks
as has this one.
The pastors, with few exceptions,
gave a part of their morning SER
vice tine to talks on general health
and the benefit possible to be derived
from the movement.
The schools beginning on Monday
morning followed the program as
mapped out by the National Negro
Business League and the pupils, be-
side generally cleaning their rooms
and buildings, were pledged to an
effort to do the same thing in their
homes.
Pastor and teachers were mater
tally helped in their efforts by the
local physicians who, individually and
as members of the local Dental and
Medical Association, gave lectures on
general health In both churches and
schools and distributed to every Ne
gro school child in Dallas a printed
leaflet containing general rules for
the care of body and teeth, warn
ing against flies and mosquitoes and
hints ON tuberculosis.
Locally at least, Health Week has
been a success It Is to be hoped
that Dallas does not stand alone ir
this regard.

We should dry up or oil all holes

refuse and everything which has a
tendency to draw mosquitoes. There
should be screens on all doors and
windows, trash moved from underneath

have been infected with the malarial
parasite should be avoided. Occasion

inw moquitoes that might otherwise
escape detection in screened houses
Where water toilets are not available
privys should be screened and linz

insects as possible.
Finally prophylaNis is to be increas-
ed by encouraging human resistance
through good food, good houses and
clothing, warmly, fresh air and sum
shine and the many other obvious hy-
genie measures necessary for good
health and sanitation.

BUY A TAG-BEAUTlFY THE GEM.
ETERI,

A tag day is being held Saturday
and Sunday, April 9th and 1Othe by
the Cemetery Association for the
purpose of raising funds with which
to Improve and keep our cemetery
clean.
1t is a movement worthy of the
hearty support of our public.
The duty of keeping clean and at
tractive the final resting place of
those dear to us should not be dis
regarded.
II Is an obligation, the sighting of
which will mean that our sense of
civic pride is far below what we
claim 1t to be.
No person who has visited our GEM
etery recently could fail to note the
absolute slovenliness of its appear
pearance. 1t is sadly IN need of
fences, means of satisfactory ap-
proach, dliveways for entrance and
exit, Thorough wedding and the
constant attention of a caretaker to
keep II in nattractive state.
The tag day is being instituted by
a group of women who. seeing the
need of this improvement, have I'M
dertaken it, believing that the general
Dallas public would be found in
hearty accord with IT,
They should rot be disappointed
The more that $4,000 of us by CON
tributing a small amount could raise
a fund substantial enough to meet
all expenses of the proposed improve
ments.

response to this appeal to that pride
