Time For City To
Begin A Cleanup
Campaign.

Summer time is near and the flies
and mosquitoes are getting bad and
it is now the right time for the city
to. begin a cleanup drive. Our
health should be looked after and
it is up to our City Fathers to do
something-there is any amount OF
rubbish and trash accumulated
around every home in the town be-
sides the town has several public
toilets that should be looked after
there are several hog pens and COW
lots that should be inspected by the
city physician and the owners made
to do something about them-there
are several old surface wells that are
not in use, are regular breeding
places for mosquitoes the bitches
are in bad shape and stagnant water
is standing in all parts Of the town
that need oiling. What are you
going to do about it--something
must be done 1T once or else the
citizens of our town must pay the
bill for your neglect.

Georgia Vital Statistics.

Acceptance of Georgia's death
records by the Federal Federal Blu
reau is one Of the most important
forward steps ever taken in the pub
lie health work of this State.
1t was the goal toward which
State Health Department officia s
had been striving for years. and
the fact that Georgia s death records
are now approx;mating the COM
pletness required by the Federal
Census Bureau is attested by the
thorolghness of the inspection made
by the Federal agt hts. For five
weeks they audited and exmined
the death Statistics, then reported
them UP to the Federal standard.
Georgia now takes her pace in
the list of States having officially
standardized and authenticated
death reports The benefits to the
State cannot lie estimated. There
are many new lines Of business and
many investments that could not be
brought to Georgia because The
State had no authentic record of it
death rate.

ofthe Court certain files with locks
pers in a more satisfactory and safe

Thirteen Dollars per month, for all
purposes, and that this take effect
