Stay-At-Home' Campaign For,
Children Is Suggested. Wants
Health Department.
BY Rev. G. r. STAFFORD,

ny new. ". Ks STAFFORD,
Pastor Of the Jefferson M. E. Charge
editors Note: The following in
teresting address was delivered al
the Jefferson high school finals last
Wednesday night and everyone in
Ashe county is urged to read it.)
Continued from Last Week.
With Health Department would
also come Sanitarians who would
help with the control of human
excrete disposal and food inspec-
ton. Tourists would appreciate
this service as well as the citizens
of the county.
Again, some will ask: Would it
be economical for Ashe to have the
services of a District Health Depart
ment? The answer can be suggest
ed by making another question: It
it good economy to spend one dol
lar in order to get three? The Fe-
deral and State governments are
making the offer now to pay two
thirds of the cost of such Health
Department.
Is it good economy to bring new
money into the County? The Rey-
nolds Fund, for fighting that dread
ed scourge of society, syphilis, would
then be available to this County.
It is not now available and cannot
be until we have a Health Depart
ment.
It is good economy to keep peo-
pie from becoming sick and dieing?
Those who have recently paid out
hundreds of dollars for hospital
and funeral expenses would tell
you that it is. Had we had an eff
fective Health Department in Dec
ember and January, last, quaran-
tines of scarlet fever would have
meant something, and it is safe to
say that several who are now dead
would be living, and many who are
living would not be manned for
life. Is it good economy? It GER
tainly is
And now ! have tried to present
even though sketchily, the four
steps think Ashe County should
take Immediately: Encourage a
"stay-at-home" policy for it's youth,
improve its economic status, pro-
vide for further cultural develop
ment, and protect its physical we'll
being by the establishment of a
Health Department-these four.
and, in my judgment the greatest of
these is the fourth.
No doubt number of people will
ask: Does Ashes really need the
services of District Health De-
partment? This is best answered
by the discoveries made during the
time the County Health Nurse has
been working here.
School inspections were conducted
during last Fall and Winter. One
hundred and fifty one children were
found who had forty per cent vision
or less. Sixty-three of these had
very bad tonsils. About sixty per
cent OF all children needed their
teeth filled. All these cases were
referred to their family physicians
for care and treatment. Only in
very rare instances had the parents
discovered and had these dificien-

, could be done.
And then it happened. Yotox, a
cloth merchant, who sat cross
legged in the market place from
midmorning to high noon each day,
agreed to become convert. Robert
was jubilant. Yotox was an influ-
ence in the town. Others would
follow.
Yotox came to the mission every
day and listened to Roberts inter-
pretations. He seemed interested and
impressed. He contradicted nothing,
and even urged that Robert provide
more intricate details of the faith.
Roberts enthusiasm knew no bounds.
We've done it, Anne!" he cried
We've done it! Yotox will tell others
of our teachings. He's really con-
verted!"
A WEEK after this, one of the
towns most important citizens
died. That night there was a great
celebration. Dressed in weird and
fantastic costumes, the populace
gathered in the market square and
proceeded with their strange rites
to speed their dead comrade on to
the heather heaven. Robert was
not little disappointed to discover
Yotox in the gathering.
Early the next morning he sum-
moned his convert and sought an
explanation. YotoX shrugged. When
a great man dies" the heather ex-
planned, his friends must clap their
hands and dance else he will never
reach the Great Land of Peace that
lies beyond"
But, Yotox, I've tried to explain
to you how silly that all is. 1t doesn't
mean anything. Its" Robert
spent an hour explaining.
Yotox listened unblinkingly, nod
ding at regular intervals. Robert
warmed to his subject. His convert.
who had erred on the night previous,
was returning to the fold.
Robert finished and smiled. You
see what a waste of effort and time
it is. Yotox? You understand, don't
you?"
Yotox nodded again. "Yes" he
said at length, "Yotox he couldn't
understand, Yotox very good Chris
tan now" He paused and frowned,
But when Yotox die, you have all
the people clap for him, just to make
sure"
Robert sighed and looked at his
wife. Yotox he couldn't understand
out the look with which Anne scanned
MS lace he could. Yotox scurried
away. There were more rites to pre-
pare for And Robert slipped his arm
ABOUT Anne's waist and watched him
go. He was wondering if she could
pack their things in time to catch
The next days boat back home.

Of regret. 1t was
cruel to talk to
Robert so frankly.
Still, it seemed
to Anne such a
hopeless undertak-
ing. The heath
ems" seemed so un-
impressed. They
listened attentive
ly to Roberts
preaching. They
accepted his IA
vorS.. But that's
as far as it went.
If only. thought
Anne, they could
convince only one
of the group who
gathered daily at
the mission, if only
they could make
one convert. It
would be q start.

Poultry Council to Meet.

Plans for Maryland's part in the
Worlds Poultry Congress, which is to
be held in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1889
will be major topic for discussion at
the summer meeting of the Maryland
State Poultry Council at Ocean City
on July 27 and % This is the first
time that the world poultry event has
been held in this country and repre-
sentatives of more than so foreign

land, where they could live and love
and Robert could carry on his work.
Reality was different. In fact, it
was positively disillusionlng.
The bungalow was a hut made Of
straW.' They carried their own water
from a spring SO yards away. The
climate was hot and sultry and filled
with bugs. Bugs inside and outside
the straw hut. Bugs in the atmo-
sNhsre. Bugs that craNled and flew
and wl1ggled and looked at you with
evil, ugly eyes.
The quiet, peace-loving, contented
people that Robert had described
proved to be dirty and noisy and
ignorant, and were forever holding
crazy celebrations called religious
rites" at which a real honest-to.
goodness contortionist would have
b,ushed for shame.
And then. after a week of this,
Robert had had the audacity to ask
h.s' pretty bride if she didn't love it
all Anger mounted in Anne's breast.
Hot words rose to her lips. Then
she looked into her husbands eyes
and saw something there that checked
the outburst After all, she thought,
1t wouldn't last forever She had
married Robert because she loved
HIM. Shed love him anywhere
1t was good philosophy and true
iol atty and all that sort of thing
But 1T didn't still the ache in her
heart She wanted to go home, where
things were clean. And after month
of teaching" she told Robert as
much.
RRoBERT stared in amazsment.
But, honey, think of the wonder
Oil work we're doing here! Dosen't
1t give you thrill to know that you
are bringing Christianity into a
heachen country?"
Anne stormed. "Heathen! What
right have we to call them he2then?
We have the audacity to tell these
people they're wrong and we're right!
Why disturb them? They seem
happy enough. What else matters?"
Robert was dumfounded. But,
Anne, l had no idea you thought
Of it in that light. Certainly, you
don't mean that you think these
people are better off than we are?'
Why not?" fared Anne, reck-
lessly. The lives they live are as
satisfactory to them as ours is to
us"
Robert was silent. Annes outburst
had taken him completely by sur
prise. He had no idea that this had
/, been her attitude. And in truth, Anne
was little surprised at herself
