aEoReIA's RECORDS RECOGNIZED
The Deaths For Georgia Reach Neces-
sary Percentage.

A telegram from Hon. w. M. Stew
art, Director Federal Census, announ-
ces that Georgia has been admitted
to the registration area for deaths.
This is based on the five weeks exam
ination by the special agents of the
Census Bureau.
The law was passed in 1914. No
appropriation for the maintenance of
the State Bureau was made until 1919.
In January of that year, with the ex-
ception of certain large cities, not a
blank was in the hands Of the regis
trars or those who needed them, so in
reality Georgia was admitted two and
half years after the work began.
Some of the counties made very
poor showing, other counties lifted the
average up to the standard
The State Bureau of Vital Statistics
received over $4,000 birth records for
1921, and before long an examination
of the birth records will be made, so
let us make every effort to secure the
complete record of every birth and
death during the present year. 1t is
up to the Solicitor General and Grand
Juries to attend to those who did not
obey the law last year. When such
records are complete Georgia will
stand with the progressive states in
the matter of birth registration as
we'll as death. Each citizen should
give aid and encouragement to the
local registrar.

SLEEP REQUIREMENTS OF
CHILDREN.

No child nutrition worker, says the
U. S. Public Health Service, can hope
to get satisfactory results without in.
sisting on enough sleep for her
charges. Besides damaging the ner-
vous system, late hours cause sleep
hunger" and make children nervous
and fidgety. The Service commends
the following precepts just issued by
the London County Council: School
children aged four years need twelve
hours sleep day; aged five to seven,
IL to IL hours; eight to eleven, 10 to
II hours; and twelve to fourteen, 8 to
10 hours. Children grow mainly whilo
sleeping or resting. Do you want
yours to grow up stunted? Tired
children learn badly and often drift
to the bottom of the class. Do you
want yours to grow up stupid? When
children go to bed late their sleep is
often disturbed by dreams and they
do not get complete rest. Do you
want yours to sleep badly and become
nervous? Sufficient sleep draws a
child onward and upward in school
and in home life; insufficient sleep,
drags it backward and downward;
which way do you want your child toI
go? TiresOme children are often only
tired children; test the truth of this.
That neighbor's child is sent to bed
late is not a good reason for sending
your child to bed late; two wrongs
do not make a right. Going to bed
late is bad habit, which may be diff
ficult to cure; persevere till you sue
coed in curing 1t.

ceived into the membership of the
church, making forty who have united
since we came last October.
Our Sunday School is strong and flour

engages a special speaker for the even

been refurnished and decorated, also the

here, and whilst the parish is large ane

made. Our church is filled every Sur
