TASK FORCE FOR HEALTH
Continued from page mine

other occupation, with the possible
execution of the atomic-enerW
project, is as dangerous. The infec-
tons invade stealthily, invisibly,
often without physical sensation in
the victim, then strike with shock
ing speed and power.
The researchers who devised
these safeguards are not frightened
people, but their lives and their
work are worth guarding.
They remember Anna, Pabst.
They remember laboratory
attendant Harry Anderson who,
in 1890, was struck down by the
parrot fever known as psittacosis.
He had been working with live,
healthy parrots. Then eight dead
ones, all associated with human
cases of the fever, we're brought in.
Almost Immediately the live par
rots became infected - and then
Anderson. He died a week later,
leaving a wife and two children.
EsAt-lsgsed Carriers
They remember DR.. Thomas
McClintic who went out to
Blodgett Canyon in Montana to
study the black eight ht-egged ticks
that spread Rocky Mountain
spotted fever. When he became
infected he insisted that he be
rushed to Washington 50 that
his Public Health Service col
leagues could observe an active
case. He got to Washington and
died "a hours later.
They remember the brilliant
DR.. Richard Henderson who be-
came Assistant Surgeon of the
u. S. Public Health Service at the
age of 29. Assigned to the Division
of Infectious Diseases, he plunged
into intensive work on Tsutsuga-
mushi scrub typhus), an affection
against which our military in the
Southwest Pacific were calling des-
perately for help. He came down
with the disease in October, 1914,
died a few days later. Young Leroy
Snellbaker, his assistant, was
stricken at the same time but re-
covered 18 days later.
The list of martyrs is long "a
bitter reminder of the price paid for
health. These were people whose
deaths were premature in any
scheme of things, but doubly tragic
considering their enormous contri-
buttons to society. The Memorial
Laboratory has been equipped 50
that those who carry on their work
may have a fighting chance to see
it through. The End

Miss Mildred Fitzgibbons, winner
of the 1916 Quigley award for out
standing showmanship, is manager
OF the Roosevelt theater in Flush
ing, NY. I had the pleasure Of be-
ing a judge at the Children's Hal
loween show held there last fall.
There were 1900 children in the
auditorium, 1000 of whom were in
costume. These marched twice
around the huge theater and across
the stage. Although they were all
ages-from tots to teen-agers, there
was not one show-off, no one had to
be disciplined. Everybody had a
wonderful time and every child be-
haved beautifully. Miss Fitzgibbons
makes it clear that she expects good
behavior-there are specific rules to
be followed, more than in most
theaters. But she also makes the
children feel that they are well
bred, with standards to live up to.
Both as parent and as citizen
why not bestir yourself to see that

CoIored Deaf
School Opens

The Mississippi School for the
Deaf (Colored Dept.) held the
opening session this week with
Supt. Brown as guest speaker.
We gathered some helpful infor-
nation from his in a deaf work.
The Topic of his discussion was
Better Teachers and Better Sal
airy.
Principal Richardson has plan
ned to have a larger enrolment
this year and a better school. He
HAS been Principal of the Negro
department, and has broadened
work in every Department. This
year he has changed the faculty
entirely. He has employed Mrs.
Sammie Watt Gray, a graduate
of Campbell College with Bach
elor of Arts Degree as Secretary,
Miss Helen Thompson, Miss Frs
kin, Miss Matte M. Smith, Mrs.
Richardson and Miss Earlean
I Brownlee as teachers.
The enrolment for this year is
expected to reach the all time
high history of Negro deaf. Our
enrolment stands at the opening
at rs.

their teachers, Miss Rosa B. Will

THE other day friend Of mine
= who is remodeling an old house
called me up in regular other be-
cause she wouldn't be able to have
her kitchen sink under a window.
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1947-09-13

the window is left for other pur-
poses. Also if a sink Is placed I'M
der south or east window there
are bound to be many hours dur
ing the day when the sun will shine
straight in your eyes.
An attractive and practical
way to treat the space over the
sink is to put a mirror there.
1t provides a view of the other
side'of the kitchen-gives you y
bird's-eye view of all the ac-
tiyities that otherwise might
be gazing on behind your back.
Furthermore, the mirror reflects
enough light from the windows
in the kitchen to keep the
working area comfortably light.
Tilt the mirror a bit, rather than
fitting it fiat against the wall If it
is framed, paint the frame like the
woodwork instead of the wall
against which it is hung.
A table placed at right angles to
the window will supply pleasant
working surface or a cheerful break
fast counter. Perhaps your kitchen
is large enough to accommodate a
rocking chair. Put it near the VIM
dow where you'll get good light for
ali those tasks you can do in the
kitchen sitting down.
The important thing about the
arrangement Of a kitchen is it's
convenience. The working units
should be routed in order to save
steps. In a big, fashioned kischen
this is especially necessary. With
the sink on an inside wall dish cup
boards can be built around it with
broad working counters on either
side. If you can edo" your dishes
and put them away without walk
Ing back and forth across a wide
kitchen you'll save time and energy.

The day has passed, I'm most

who sells school books can
dominate the school board.
Library boards are no longer
made up solely of weIl-meaning
scholars. For nowadays a cross
section of the public assumes
civic responsibility for admins
tering local educational and
cultural affairs. Yet selection of
the men and women who are to
run the motion picture theaterS
is still strictly matter between
the theater owner and the cam
didate.

taken into consideration when new
pipes of a permanent material are
put in. But to do this will require
the floating of another bond Of very
considerable size.
The town marshal receives q
salary of $175.00 with an additional
SIS for mileage. Robert jenkins,
the present officer, served for a
time last year when in the spring
he attended a law enforcement
school at Kalispell for officers in
this area.
1t is the intention of the council
by whatever new method advocated
to obtain more funds and allocate
more for adequate police protec-
ton for the town. They feel they
have secured a good man for the
job and wish to renumerate him
accordingly.
The city streets, those orphans
Of our municipal system, have little
chance of being taken care of when
with the funds available all ex--
penses of the city are paid To
oil the streets alone last summer
cost $1,000. To plough the snow
once this season in November cost
tne town more than $780, Men and
dnzers were hired wherever it was
Lossible to obtain the same. Now
the council has purchased a new
atrol which will take care of all
work for the town at minimum
cost is the fervent hope of those
for its purchase. The
lost was approximately $4,000.
Some of the additional money
brought in will be used to establish
a permanent street. Little by little

Discussing the matter some small
/ uslness people seem to feel that
a flat rate for the licensing of each
separate business discrimlnates a
gainst the small business person,
md furthermore will tend to re-
strict business enterprise. For in
stance whether employing several
men or just owner operated, all
garages will pay the same fee, all
grocery stores whether they sell
lew or many goods will be required
10 pay the same money, etc. These
people and many who are not in
at all think that a special
tax levy will get at the crux of the
matter and get money easier.
This coming up as it has, has
made the taxpayers of Troy rev.
enue conscious. Where the money
comes from, where it goes and the
tangible results from the use of
it.
The general concensus of opinion
from all parties apparently is the
same. The town needs more money
to carry on a more efficient basis.

Town to Raise More Money

That the means of obtaining ad-
ditional revenue for the mainten.
ance of the town has been the sub.
ject uppermoSt in the minds of the
city council for some considerable
time is evident After weighing
the pros and cons of the course
decided upon, namely that of ex-
acting a license fee from the var
ious business enterprises within the
town limits, the persons thus af-
fected were asked to meet with the
town council on Thursday night
in the city hall There was a good
ly representation present. In f1o
absence of Mayor Clay, George
StrOm was the acting mayor and
in such capacity he conducted the
meeting. The purport of the coun-
ellis plea was that more money is
necessary to keep up the present
police salary and to maintain the
streets of the town. After some
discussion a committee was appoin-
ted to look into the way other
towns managed a similar situation,
also to make suggestions as to the
best means of carrying out their
recommendations. To serve on the
committee were: Messers Bellows
manager of Montana Light g. Pow
err Walt Morrison, Bert Coffman,
Ed Weidner and ]. B. Farris. Said
committee to report as soon as
possible to those interested.
For general information these few
facts are inserted here. For the
past years the brunt Of keeping
the towns finances out of the red

water department. This depart

tenn were retired. About that time

missioner, Harry Ford, saw that
