MOthercraft of
W0men's Club Hears
DR.. Young on Health

The regular meeting of the Moth
ercraft department of the Waterville
V OmanS club was held at the home
Of Mrs. y. b. Ashcraft, "a Pleas SAINT
street, yesterday afternoon. During
the afternoon the departments reg
ular business was transacted and the
resignation of Mrs. a. II. Bridges as
chairman was presented to the menu
hers. 1t was accepted. and Mrs. III.
w. kicrstead was appointed to fill
the vacancy. Mrs. Katherine Taylor
was elected vice chairman.
After the regular business was
disposed Of, DIR. w. !. Young. health
officer OF the city, gave very in
structive talk on public health. DR..
Young said in part: The tendency of
people to group closely together in
communities increases the problems
or the sanitarian. for, in the country
districts. beyond protecting the water
supply, arranging for the proper dis
position of waste material and drain
ing the water pools for the purpose
OF eXtei minating mosquitoes, his ac-
INVITES are comparatively few.
THE one item of dense smoke is of
particular interest, as it is the one
visible condition that Identifies some
cities from afar. 1t is the most con-
spicuOus, one of the most dangerous,
and at the same time one of the most
general nuisances. that we have in
our communities, especially in manu-
featuring ccnters where bituminous
coal is used. 1t pollutes the air, and

he SCOT that accompanies it pene-
trates into the most remote part Of
every building.
1.-The final disposition OF the waste
ma terial of a city is in itself a sep
arate proposition that contains per-
picking situations that vary and are
affected to a considerable extent by
the character OF the environments Of
the city. II the city is near tide
water. and has a fair decline OF sur
face toward the water, it's sewage
may be removed by gravity sewers,
and its other refuse may be trans
ported by vehicles to scows and
safely removed to place where 1t will
not have a deleteriOus effect. The
solution OF these two fea lures. in the
event of favorable natural surround
inss. Is but repetition OF what has
been accomplished in other places
similarly situated, and requires but
ordinary methods for fulfilment."
In conclusion. DR.. Young said:
"There are many other features
that we find covered in the Sanitary
Code of every city, such as the keep
ing of chickens; suppression of Spit
ting in public places; muZzling Of
dogs; equipment OF vehicles that
transport refuse material: reguiat-
ing of cemeteries, especially At times
when cpidemics prevail; the super
vision of places where birds and
small animals are kept for sale: the
keeping Of pigeons in the built up
sections OF the city: the use OF tow
els, drinking receptacles and eating
utensils by more than one person, be-
fore they are re-washed; escape OF
fumes of gasoline from garages:
maintenance of public baths; and
the conduct of barber shops and
beauty parlors. All of these, with
many others, represent never end
in:, variety Of subjects that call for
regulation. and that require study on
the part of the sanitist. to the end
that the world may be made a safer
place TO live in, and that the amb-
ton of man for longer extension Ut
the life period may lie fulfilled

IF RHEUMATIC
EAT NO SWEETS

rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states a we'll known au-
thority We are advised to dress
warmly, keep the feet dry, avoid eN-
posture. and above all. drink plenty
of good water and avoid eating sweets
of all kind.
rheumatism is caused by body
waste and acids resulting from food
fermentation. 1t is the function of
the kidneys to filter this poison from
tie blood and cast it out in the urine ;
the pores If the skin are also a
means OF freeing the blood of this
impurity. J.. damp and chilly cold
weather the skin pores are closed,
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work; they become weak and slug
Sish and fail to eliminate this waste
and acids. which keeps accommodating
and circulating through the system.
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles, causing stiffness. soreness,
and pain, called rheumatism.
AT the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of JAG Salts; put table
spoonful in glass of water and
drink before breakfast each morning
for a vice.. This is helpful to neu-
tralize acidity, remove waste matter.
also to stimulate the kidneys, thus
often Kidding the blood Of rheumat tic
poison.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the acid OF grapes and
lemon juice. combined with lithia, and
il used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject
to rheumatism.-Adv.

As above noted the government in
making the above report only listed
cities of 10000 population or more. but
we must remember that there are many
towns and cities in Texas of less than
10000 population that are known as in
dustrial centers, for the large Industries
do not always locate in cities. The
above mentioned cities only account for
262S establishments out Of a total in
! Texas of 51A: and 64,T4S persons en-
gagged in manufacture out of total of
131 $50 reported for the entire state.
Salaries and wages for the above men
toned cities amount 10 S13, T0I 900 out
of total for the entire state amount
ing 10 S147, o0S,00O. The total value OF
products in the industries Of the above
mentioned cities amounts to S4ST. 12I.-
600 out Of q total production for the
entire state amounting 10 S009,906,-
OON.
While we of Texas are proud Of this
record; however, we are still in our in
fancy along industrial lines when we
consider the great territory covered by
the state. There is no doubt in our
ultlu llldl inc next Ten Years Will SliON
a greater development of the industries
OF the state than that of any preced-
ing time. OUr people are waking to the
folly of sending our raw materials thou
sands of miles away. and then have il |
returned to us as the finished product.
Giving employment TO all that seek |
work in our larger cities is a grave
problem. The people of the rural dis
tricts throughout our country are flock
ing to the cities. for 30 per cent OF our
total population seeks n living in the
cities. We are rapidly converting our
selves from an agricultural into an in
dustrinl nation. The 80 per cent on
the farms. due 10 modern methods have
found it possible 10 feed the 20 per
cent in the cities and feed a graf part
of the world besides. Every community
in the state should stand back of its in.
dustries and give preference to products
made in Texas.
