At the conclusion of DR.. Forts
address Luther harcIl offered a
resolution requesting the county

state government and the national
government to send eno'accr5 here

DR.. Fort then discussed the rea-
sons for fighting The mosquito, Civ
ing two reasons. First one because
of the mosquito carries the germ of
malaria and causes death, and Sec
ond, because Of the pain and suffer
ing caused by mosquito bites in in
Tested regions.
The mosquito splits the germ Of
malaria into the victims blood, and
in 4S hours one germ has multip' iei
into thirty, and in two or three
weeks, billions Of germs are pouring
poison into the blood At AZ hour
intervals the poisoned corpuscles ef
the blood burst and the shock of the
release Of so much poison gives US
a chill"
Dr.. Fort next turned attention 90
the question, can we control malaria?
Think what we did in Cuba said
the speaker. And in one town in
North Carolina where they were
having 5000 cases Of malaria each
year, they put on a campaign against
the mosquito, and the number of
cases We're reduced 70 Dne."
The speaker spoke Of the economic
loss caused by malaria, and stated
that cotton mills in sections infest-
ed with the mosquito found it diff
cut to run efficiently until malaria
was eliminated. He said that it had
been clearly demonstrated that ma
Iaria could be controlled.
Though the State Board of
Health has quit promising help TO
cities in fighting malaria, l feel sure
that Americas can secure aid from
the board if she decided to put on
campaign against the dread dis.
ease he said.
1T is simply a question of broal,-

FIERY, ITCHY SKIN
QUICKLY SOOTHED
BY THIS SULPHUR


Mentho-Sulphur, a pleasant cream,
will soothe and heal skin that is irri-
tatcd or broken out with eczema; that
is covered with ugly rash or pimples,
or is rough or dry. Nothing subdueS
fiery skin eruptions so quickly, says a
noted skin specialist.
The moment this sulphur preparation
is applied the itching stops and after
two or three applications, the eczema
is gone and the skin is delightfully."- clear
and smooth. Sulphur is so precious as
a skin remedy because it destroys the
parasites that cause the burning, itch
ing or Disagreement. Mentho-Sulphur
always heals eczema right up.
A small jar of Rowles Mentho-Sui-
phur may be had at any good drug
