CAVE MAN 0. K. IN
MOVIES; NOT HOME

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. 6.-When
Frank johnson Crowned" his wife
with black jack in restaurant. Mrs.
Ethel Johnson decided that cave man
love goes better in novels than in real
life. Now she is advocating that all
married women stick together for
their marriage rights, particularly
abolition of the rough" style '.affec-
ton"
Although a prison cell has brought
apparent repentance to the recalci-
trant husband and he promises to do
better if she will withdraw the charg-
.es against him, Mrs. johnson turns a
deaf ear to his appeals.
"Off'' of Him Now.
No cave man for Gne," she said
emphatically. ANY man who will
strike woman ought to be in the
penitentiary. I think 1 have started
a movement against cave man tao
tics in the home. A husband should
be gentle and kind. Old-fashioned
love should once more prevail. Other
wise it's jailhouse and dark pris-
on cell for friend husband. That's
what 1 say. anyhow"
When Johnson was given a prelim-
mary trial on a charge of wife beat
ing he went down on his knees to beg
forgiveness of his wife, only to meet
a stern refusal.
He Makes Ardent Plea.
In letter to her from Jail, John
son wrote: Sweetheart, If you have
a heart, please come to see me, for
love you. I will never give you one
trouble If you will come
down here. Please don't make me
stay here any longer. Darl- |
ing. please bring me something TO cat.
We have corn bread and syrup for
breakfast in tin can; corn bread and
rice for dinner and no supper. i
] am in one lonely dark cell and |
never see anybody but negro cook. |
Sweetheart, If do get out I
will never bother you again / will
get a job and go to wOrk''i
Can you beat it?" was her COM !
ment. 81 have no dependence in him. |
We have been married only a shoHt |
time, but during that interval he has
terribly mistreated me and have
been putting up with it, hoping that
perhaps some day he would get over
his cave man tactics and behave him
self. So when l heard his plea in
court I knew he didn't mean it. l
knew him."

pointed out that since anti-tuberculo-
sis work was begun In Marion County
in 1913, the death rate here has
dropped from 1928 per 100000 to g.
rate Of 1922 per 10000 in 1921. Much
anti-tuberculosis work still IS to be
done in the community II the ravages
Of the disease are to be stopped. More
than $4,000 cases are known to exist
in the county and inadequate facilities
for taking care Of many Of these cases
are apparent now. health officials say.
In the shadow Of the cross now
stands 1900 affiliated anh-tuberculo-
sis organizations Discussing what
the cross has meant nationally, local
tuberculosis workers said today:
Fights Great Battle
THE double-barred cross has stood
foc every feature Of the great battle
against the scourge OF humanity. It
has meant international gatherings
at which long studies have been made
in stamping out the disease, II has
provided mobile tuberculosis exhibits
which have taught thousands the In
sidiousness of the disease, and It has
established tuberculosis weeks, in
which Americans have learned how
to fight the plague. Il has created
700 or more institutions In which cures
are brought about. It has promoted
legislation which lessened the danger
of the disease.

when the double-harred Red Cross

country sixteen years ago there were
only 115 tuberculosis sanatorta, with

There are. however. by close es-
