Health Head
Asks Support
Of TB Seals

DR.. A. D. Gregg, county health Of
ficer, today gave his unqualified sup
port to the campaign for the sale OF
Christmas seals to fight tuberculosis.
He outlined how the funds realized
can be used in Henderson and Vance
county. His statement follows:
''War is declared, yes right here in
North Carolina, not by any govern
ment and not against any nation or
peoples. War is declared against the
invisible empire Of germs, the con-
slant and yet unconquered foe Of our
peoples health
''The little germ known as Koch's
bacillus, or bacillus Of tuberculosis,
has proven one Of the hardest to con-
quer Of all the pathological microbes.
So now one Of most active campaigns
for better health is Waged against
tuberculosis, and the annual sale of
these seals is one of our fine methods
to raise money which is a needed ma
terial in this warfare and our fight is
Henderson daily dispatch. (Henderson, N.C.) 1914-1995, 1939-12-01

not at all hopeless.
''The seal sale money is largely us
ed to furnish milk to the under
nourished children in our schools.
Many of these children are now skin
positive showing exposure to t. B.
and a possibility of an active case
few years from now. Protect and
build up these children to adult life
and you have practically won the
fight for your community as the
vast majority of cases are infected
with young. The teachers tell me that
they can see good results from the
milk given in schools.
"The health department has the
names of the children who are liable
to become active cases of tuberculosis
or who have been exposed to active
cases and we try to check these by
X-Ray at least once year. Our next
tuberculosis clinic will be in January
and we will probably have to get
financial aid to help pay the charge
of 81 for X-Ray plates. Other SER
vices Of the clinic are free.
Several diseases Of the public
health we have conquered. Let US all
get behind this sale, go over the top
and vanquish the Great White Plague
of tuberculosis.

going to stay in New York;"
Fabienne took cigaret from her
jeweled case and tapped it thought
fully. She was thinking: 1 can't
stay and won't let Ellen urge me.
There were lot of parties sched-
uled for the holidays in Maryland,
parties that she was looking for
ward to.
CYOU HAVE SO MUCH AND
THEY HAVE so LITTLE.O
She had dances and drags and
cocktail parties that she'd promised
to go to. Dances in the high-ceil-
inged rooms where she'd danced so
many many times. Miss Kate and
Miss Viola Lee in their lavender
shawls. The black boys playing
slow waltzes back of the palms.
The miles and miles of buffets with
salads and hot breads. They'd been
there for decades and they'd be
there for decades more-ur-
changed.
And the days. The nice, lazy,
well-ordered days. Breakfast befor,
the fire in the library Molly brush
ing her hair. Lavender-scented
sheets to sleep between each night.
She couldn't leave that and come
back to hurried breakfasts, to eight
hours a day wiping little noses,
running about j..
Miss Seymour! Excuse me,
please, Miss Chapman, but can I
come in? 1t was Rosie Riccio, a
broad smile on her swarthy, pretty
face, who spoke, interrupting Fa.
bienne's train of thought.
At first, Fabienne didn't recog-
| nize her. Gone were the patches of
rouge on her olive cheeks. Gone
was the bold smudge of lipstick, the
oily curls. Rosie wore her hair in
roll, the way that Fabienne wore
it when she was at work. Gone
were the silly, cheap sandals and
the sleazy dress. Low heels and a
little sweater suit replaced them.
"Rosie!" Fabienne said, delighted.
II just wanted to tell you how
glad we are you're back"
I'm glad to be back, Rosie. Will
you call meeting of the girls in
your group for Monday night at
eight o'clock?
Ellen said, Good girl, Fab"
you've got me hypnotized, Ellen
Chapman. I hadn't the slightest in
tention Of staying"
you'll never be sorry, Fab. The
bread on the waters has never
failed to come back. Come
along now. Well pick up Bill. He'll
be delighted to hear this"
HE will?" Fabienne said in a
small voice.
"Of course he will. He's been
talking about you ever since you
left. He wants you to work with
him."
I'm the clinic?" Fabienne aske:,
setting her mouth in a firm line.
"Oh, no! Bills working awfully
hard on some choral groups, get
ting ready for Christmas carols.
He needs you, too, Fabienne. But l
warn you, right now, it will take
lot Of your time. Thew rehearse
every night" ~
Working with Bill every night! t
was sweet to anticipate, but it was
dangerous. If this was bread on the
waters, it was bitter bread.

we think We'll use it on sor- prof.

a problem. They're at an age when
children's pursuits are beneath
them, and they don't want to take

light. There was a twinkle in his

was professionally concerned.

Fabienne said, Let's go look"
AS they came down the aisle to
their seats n the front row, the
lights went down and the curtain
rose jerkily.
The play was on. The play was
a dramatization of episodes from
the lives Of George WASHINGTON and
Abraham Lincoln. It was played by
a cast that ranged in years from
four to twelve; by a cast that spoke
with the tongue of foreign LAOS,
and spoke with the childish stilted
phrases that were a delight in
themselves. Fabienne felt proud.
1t was over very quickly, too
quickly. Because Bill Mallory sat
by her side and because she was
aware of the pleasure in his face,
his simple delight that she, too, felt
in the children's performance. Once
she looked at him and whispered,
You like them, don't you?"
kids are more interesting than
people" he said, smiling II work
with them all the time, you know"
DO you?" she said, and returned
her gaze to the stage.
The play was over and they rose
to stand for the playing Of the ma
tional anthem.
Fabienne dropped her purse.
She bent to pick it up.
Bill bent at the same time.
Her soft hair brushed his cheek.
His hand fumbled with the purse,
touched hers. A fame ran up her
arm, into her throat and made her
face feel hot, her eyes burn.
Thanks" she murmured. and

Tiny French Isle
Told of War on
| Byrd's Visit

Inhabitants Of Rapa Island, a
tiny French possession in the Pa
cific Ocean, had their first news
of the war in Europe when the
North Star, flagship of the Byrd
Antarctic expedition, touched there
on December IT,
Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd,
commander of the expedition, ra-
diced report of the visit to the
Navy Department yesterday. He
said most of the islands 282 Poly
nesian inhabitants received the news
calmly. But not so Viscomte Rene
DIES Champs de Verneix, the only
native Frenchman on the isle.
The Frenchman, who came from
near Vichy, eagerly questioned the
visitors about the war, Admiral
Byrd reported. He asked particu-
larly about the effectiveness of
fighting planes--as the viscomte ex-
planned he had been an aviator in
France.
AS at Pitcairn Island, where the
North Star called last week, the
expedition found a shortage Of food,
clothing and medical supplies. The
island had not been visited in sew
eral months.
