How One Editor Uses Radio.

The editor Of paper in an iso-
lated town in the northwest is using
the radio in a most ingenious and ef-
fective way. An aamateur radio friend
in big city so miles away buys the
latest editions Of the city papers as
soon as they are off the press, reads
the best news into his transmitter, and
a typist In the country Office copies the
news as it comes in over the office re-
ceiver. The editor, through this in
genious plan, is always First with
the Latest In his homo town.

WONDERFUL SHOWING
MOST ENCOURAGING

/. There has been considerable spec
ulation as to the incidence of the vene-
real diseases since the State Board Of
Health has been doing its work along
the line of cure and education.
The Surgeon-GeneraPs report was
awaited by those doing this kind Of
work with a great deal of interest.
He says on page IA: 'The rate for
veneral diseases for white troops in
the United States showed a very ma
terial decrease over that of the pre-
ceding year This was especially graf
flying in view of the fact that cores.
bonding rates showed very pronoun-
ced increase after the Civil and Span
ish-American wars" A search has
been made of the records for twenty
five; the highest rates was in 1902,
with rate Of 10000. The year 1918
gave a rate of 1880; the past year
only 66.85, the lowest of any year.
If this ratio of decrease can be main
tanned some of these days we will
reduce the veneral diseases to so
small problem that it will be nil.
This can only be done by the clos
est of coordination and cooperation.
The education of the people must
continue; the cases must be treated
detained in quarantine, and our mar
rage contract properly protected.
The State Board of Health makes
free examinations Of pus and blood
and stands ready to aid the physic-
ians in every way possible. The ex-
pensive remedy, Arsphenamine, is fur
nished free to those not able to pay
for it, and is supplied to those able
to pay at government contract price.
Seven clinics are maintained where
cases are cared for, and over hun
dred counties are organized for work.
Pamphlets and instruction sheets are
furnished on request; write DR.. Joe
P. Bowdoin, 131 Capital Square, At
lanta, and ask any question you like
or about which you need information.

SMALLPOX PREVENTION

We have certain seasons in which
particular diseases seem to thrive bet
ter than at others. We are now, Feb
ruary, entering the smallpox season.
For the next few months, this dis
figuring and often serious disease will
flourish among those who have not
taken the precaution of being vaccin-
ated. There is no danger when proper
precaution is used, not the least, and
1t is as nearly perfect protection as
anything known to science. The writ
er has been vaccinated fifteen or
twenty times; had the vaccination to
take twice; the other times no dis
comfort at all. 1 have been exposed
to smallpox; have handled smallpox
many times without the least fear.
Vaccination does protect and all
should take advantage Of this wonder
full discovery. The State Board of
Health has a contract with the manu-
facturer for it's supply, and can send
It at six cents point. You may be
exposed within the next few weeks,
and will need this protection. Have
your physician vaccinate you; it is
the safe course. Beware of so-called
chicken pox. Often the severest cases
of smallpox will develop from one SO
mild that the patient does not go to
bed.

Pasteur Animal
Treatments Heads

This means that last year 2,147 men,
women and children bitten or exposed
to mad dogs had to go through the
trying and expensive ordeal of visit
ing a physician once or twice each
day for twenty-one days and have a
syringe full of milky fluid injected in
to their bodies. But this is not all.
Only those who have been through
with it can appreciate the horror,
anxiety and mental distress attending
the experience of waiting for the out
come of the treatment. Not only do
the victims themselves, but parents,
relatives and friends suffer from the
mental strain.
Fortunately the Pasteur treatment
is so effective and successful that
very few human deaths occur now
adays. But one death from rabies
strikes terror to the entire commune
ity in which it occurs and excites fear
in the hearts of all who hear about it.
Just a word to you, Mr. Farmer.
Hundreds of fine cattle, hogs, horses
and mules die of rabies each year,
and the loss last year surpassed all
previous records. Neighbors' dogs are
allowed to run without restriction all
over your community. You may ex-
pect to lose some of your live stock
sooner or later
Just word to you, Mr.. Dog Lover.
Hydrophobia infection in dogs is more
prevalent now than ever before. The
distribution is widespread, but rela-
lively greater wherever, the dog pop
ulation is high Hot weather has
nothing to do with it's increase-dog
days have no influence on it. Records
at the State Board of Health Labora-
tory show that the disease was more
prevalent in April and May and in Oc-
tober and November than in the sum-
mer months.
Your dog is in constant danger OF
exposure. If he is bitten by mad
dog, you are not only almost certain
to lose him, but you may also be in
directly responsible for the safety of
your neighbors and their children and
property.
This is intended as timely warn
ing and not to cause undue alarm. Hy-
drophobia in dogs is like many other
animal and human infectious diseases,
in the respect that once it gains head
way it spreads very rapidly. 1t is the
prediction of the State Board of
Health that, unless immediate and
effective measures are undertaken,
the infection is going to become more
and more severe, month by month,
until we will be forced to kill or con-
fine every dog in the State in order
to protect our children, ourselves and
our livestock
Mr.. Citizen, for the sake of your
children, your fine pets and your prop
erty, respond to this appeal by writing
to your State Board of Health. You
will receive a prompt reply and will be
told what to do. A bulletin on HOW
TO HANDLE MAD DOGS will be sent
you on condition that you read it and
spread the information among your
neighbors.

APPEAL FOR

Response to Date |. eenerous.-Insti- tuition Worthy of United Support

The annual appeal on behalf of the Day kimball Hospital Is being made through the woman's Board and even though the canvass has not progressed very far, reports show that the re- sponse is generous.
 A more worthy institution to re- ceive the benefactions of people in this section of windham county can not be found. This fact seems to be reflected in the liberal response that eanvassers are receiving from all whom they approach.
 There is really no need to point out anew the wonderful work that the hospital Is accomplishing for the peo- pie of Putnam and all towns for miles around. Its facilities are taxed to their capacity. There is great need for the generous giving of everyone. The cash that will be donated in this annual Thanksgiving offering will find ready use and will be so spent as to accomplish the greatest good for the greatest number And the gifts of fruit. vegetables and other commodi- ties will be appreciated far more than the printed word can tell.
 Gifts of cash are being received on behalf of the Woman's Board by Mrs. William F. Rafferty. Mrs. W J. Bart lett and Mrs. Charles E.
