GLEAN YOUR PREMISES
' A CALL TO ARMS TO PRBVENT
DISEASE.
By Superintendent of Health,
Dr- J. E Malone, to* The People
of Louisburgr and FrankHi
County.
Warm weather is approaching the
time when insect life asserts its
malevolent presence. As Superintendent
of Health I need the help
of everv man, woman and child in
the county. You have no idea how
much you can aid me in getting and
keeping the town and county in a
healthy sanitary condition. In the
first plnce I ask you to begin at once
Cleaning up your home and premises
by removing or buring up all trash
piles. See tp It "I hat no vessel, how.
ever small, that can gather and hold
stagnant water, is allowed to remain
around your home, for wherever
there is stagnant or standing water
there is a home for the mosquito lb
find a fertile medium to propogate
bia species and then they go abroad
Torino tho orormn ot clisPOfl? and
death. So let nothing in the way of
a gutter, tin can or bucket that can
' hold water remain.
The pestiferous little house-fly is
an immense freight train loaded
with billions of disease and death
dealing germs. The fly deposits its
eggs in trash piles, manure piles and
all kinds of filth. They come dir. ct
from these or some dead or decaying
animal and crawl over the food on
your table at the same time wiping
these little germs from their feet and
wings. To get lid of these you must
remove all sources of this breeding',
then screen your doors and windows.
Now let us sum up. Remove all
sources from which the mosquito
^ can come such as stagnant water in
any kind of vessel, llenioye all
sources from which the fly may
come, such as piles of trash, manure,
decaying animal matter and filth in
general. Use a great quantity of
milk of lime (white-wash) in the way
of white washing am! as a powder
. scatter in and around all dainp,
J dank, unhealthy looking ptaoes. We
art going to try our best to make
Louisburg and Franklin county
healthy and sanitary.
R-spectfully,
J. E. MAI-ONE, M. D.
Superintendent Health.

at the Opera House on last Monday
night to quite an appreciative audience
The prooeeds were for the
benefit- of the respective classes and
quite a nice little sum was raised

was splendid and the acting
was excellent. Much credit is due
those who were instrumental in the
arrangement and instruction of this
entertainment.
Fire
Quits! u- little excitement was
aroused on Wednesday about 1*2:15
o'clock when the fire alarm was
turned in. It was soon learned that
the tiouble was at Mr. J. J. PersonH
a id both fire-companies made haste
to render services. Upon their arrival
it was found that it was au old
tiarn that was on fire ami had caught

^Progress of The Hookworm in
The State.
The progress of the campaign
against hookworm disease in Noitli
Carolina is splendidly shown by the
growth in the number who have sent
specimens of feces to the State Laboratory
of Hygiene. During the
year ?f lttlO_the growth was ns follows:
" ~
First Quarter, 70 examinations.
Second " 486 "
Third " 2421 ?
Fourtii ' 4972 "
J an.-l'Vb., 1911, 5478 "
These examinations represent
school children more largely than
any other class, however the Stale
militia, a large number of college
students, and other adults are included.
Many physicians treat tne disease
without having a laboratory ex
amination made. It is learned from
those in the State who are treating
the disease about one-hatf the active
practitioners, that about 15,000 cases
have already Ueeu treated. The
Hookworm' Commission, State
Boatd of Health, Raleigh, N. C., will
send literature about this disease
which has been found to affect about
i one-third of the people free atid the
State Labor itory of Kygenie, Raleigh,
N. C., wid make the examinations
for it free.

God in his infinite wisdom has ^
seen tit to call the beloved wife of Mr. 1
John Hendricks from the walks of '
ibis life to be numbered with the
silent dead. God always loved a
shining mark. She died the sixth f
of March, in the afternoon at four t
o'clock. She had started on an extended
visit to^ee her children. She
arrived in Henderson on the fourth
Sunday at twelve o'clock and was
taken sick in an hour and grew
weaker until the message catno for | '
her to come up higher. She died |
with her full armor on, had her lamp 0
trimmed and burning. The last
word she spoke was to call her io'vi....

quivered her speech w as gone to the ^
one who gave it. She died at her t
son's, .Mr. .Ice Hendricks. She had
two son's near Oxford. George
and Felix, a daughter in
Youngsville, Mrs. William lloyle
also at .Mouiton, Buddie Hendricks, *
her baby boy whom she loved dearly.
She left seven children, four son's, three
daughters and a heart broken *
husband, and eighteen grandchildren ?
and she was nearly sixty four years
of uge. She bore her afflictions 1
with Christian fortitude and died S
happy, not even a murmur fell from
her lips. I must think there was a ]
convoy of angels standing around t
her death bed to convey her spirit
home. On the nineteenth dav of
o
January she spent the day with us,
was a particular friend of my mother.
Little did we think it would be her
last visit to us. Its lias been my
prtvelege to know htr eleven years, t
I never knew anything but to love s

husband and children, you all try to ii
live as she did so when Jesus comes a
to claim his own, each of yon may
