Mo., is expected to visit hia native county ol Alamance in a few days and his kinsmen and friends of his early days living in this county have asked him to make a public addresa in the Court House in Graham on Tuesday -night at 8 o'clock on the 9th day of Septem ber, 1319. lie has signified his acceptance of this invitation and the public is cordially invited to come and hear, him. Colonel Garrett ia a distinguished lawyer, was a Lieut.-Colonel of his Regiment in France, and he dis tinguished himself on the batile 1 * fields during the great world war] He has the reputation of being a very eloquent speaker and orator, 3tnd made many addresses in various States since the war ended. It is hoped that the people of his native county will give him a rous ing reception and a lull house. Very respectfully, JACOB A. LONI. EDITOR'S NOTE : —T'ol. Garrett is a scion of Alamance. His father, Rev. John N. Garrett, was one of the State's leading educators within the period of 20 to 40 years ago. Col. Barrett's grandfather wai Mr. Jerro R. Garrett of Coble township, who was one of the county's best known citizens, and who served his county in a number of responsible positions Mayor Holmes Discusses State Sani tation LJW Affecting Town of Gra ham. Only a short time remains for the people of Graham to comply with the sanitation law enacted by the last Legislature and avoid 'h? penalties provided under the law. Every home that is not connected with a water sewe. aje system is affected. Discussing the new lay and its enforcement Mayor Holmes says : "It is the duty of every good cit izen to heartily join in the effort being made to ria the community of typhoid fever and other kindred diseases. The health authorities have pointed out the sources of these diseases, and have shown the method controlling them. With such knowledge available there is no excuse for the presence of a case of typhoid fever, and it is the plain duty of every resident to see that he and his family are protect ed by having his own home sani tated. The health authorities ha\e demonstrated tha* typhoid fever, diarrhoea, summer complaint among the babies, and dis eases are excrement-born.; dis eases. There is no guess work about this; it has been conclusive ly proven. It therefore follows, as the health authorities point out, that the proper disposal of hu man excrement means the removal of the source of these diseases. In the face of these admit'ed facts I do not believe that there is a man in this town who will delib erately endanger the lives of his own loved ones and the lives of his neighbors" by failing to take the means provided and ad vise J for safety. "Unfortunately every "horns can not be connected with the water sewerage system. Hut every home can and must have a sanitary privy. Self-preservation .is the first law of nature. In providing a sanitary privy this natural law, as well as the State law, will be fulfilled. "Full information of the various types of sanitary privies that will be approved by the Stat.? Hoard of Health, which is charged witli the duty of enforcing this act }f the legislature may be obtained fro.vi my office, or a speei il B.illetin will be' mailed direct to the in terested person upon application to the State Board of Health. Kuleijli. Sanitary inspectors representing the State Board of Health will o.— gin their duties the first oi' Octo ber, and it is time for those of our people, who have not already taken action to get busy. "The necessity for full compli ance with this law is a double one. Both a moral and a legal duty rests upon the head of each home. I believe that all our citizens will see the matter in this light, and will act accordingly. It will be a splendid record to have this town rated as 100 per cent, sanitary by the State Board of Health, and it is a record that we may easily attain." For Sale Cheap.
