greatest number to occur during any

SO it seems that the season does not
have much to do with deaths from
burns-neither the bitterly coIa
months. nor July, which includes In
dependence Day, still celebrated win
abandon in some sections, although
many communities have banned the
indiScriminate use OF explosives and
fireworks.
So far this year there have been
more homicides and suicides than oc-
CURED during the first seven months
of 1899. The 1910 homicide total
through July was POS, compared with
1872 a year ago, or an increase Of l6,

Typhoid fever continues to take a
slight TOLL there having been IS
deaths from that disease so far this
wear, as compared with 20 through
July, 1889 However, incubation and
sanitation have formed blockade
around this once prevalent and dead
" disease, which continues TO hold
down the number Of deaths. This IS
shown by the fact that the typhoid
death rate in North Carolina in 1914
was 1913. In 1889, it was l.3, drop
of 81 and a half points. Even III this
disease. however, in which such re-
markablc progress has been made as
to its control and eradication, figure
for a year or two during the past 70
wears would have meant little.
That is why it is emphasized that,
although vital statistics Tor short
period may be interesting and even
show radical changes, they must be
taken over period Of years.
However, it is interesting TO know
the causes that are responsible Tor
claiming the lives of our people, be-
cause many Of these deaths are pre-
ventablc and the causes can be either
greatly mnimized or, in some in
stances, completely cradicated.

Only four diseases-heart disease,

A committee from the St. Paul

Golden and a joint committee COM

dices engendered against the Negro
race in the old time movie, 1.-The
