Health Department Head Says Malaria Control Is Necessary (Continued from page one) method is to see that all infected blood streams are freed of the ma laria parasites, so that, no matter ? how many mosquitoes bite there will be no parasites for them to -transmit from one person to an other. Our safest, most reliable and best known remedy for this are adequate doses of sulphate of quinine Ten grains of quinine every 8 hours for a period of 3 days and then 10 grains every night for a period of 8 weeks is the old method advised by the National Malaria Committee Later they are advising that 20 grains of quinine every day for 7 days will do the same work. The patient can take his choice It is best and cheap est to buy the quinine by the ounce and fill your own capsule* A num ber naught capsule, both ends pack ed. holds 5 grains of the quinine- Two of these is the dose for anyone over 14 years of age. children in propor tion The trouble is not making the dose large enough If the parent wishes to give the two-year-old ba by 2 grains, all she will have to do is to empty the number naught cap sule, and divide it into five equal parts, each part is a grain Two purta is dose for baby. etc. There is no need to suffer with malaria until we get all areas drain ed or screened. Quinine, taken as stated, not only saves the patient sickness but prevents it from being carried to others. Trench Silo In Tal liable And 4Inn Economical D.

While his card was the last to he filed, the young man drew the order number "632". Ilis serial number is 3, 26H. While the old saying, "the last shall be first and the first shall be last." does not hold true in its entirety in the young man's case, it is certain that be is well in the front. Improvement Made In Farm Program Au-uupnrtant improvement in the Agricultural Conservation Program, effective in 1941, has been announc ed by CI T Scott. Johnston County farmer and chairman of the State AAA committee. It provides for more emphasis on the conservation phases of the program, makes the AAA program more adaptable to all farms in the State, encourages the production of food and feed crops, and should greatly reduce the cost of compliance. "General soil-depleting allotments will be discontinued with the 1941 program and payments will be based upon the amount of soil-building ac complished." Scott stated. "The far mer who earns all soil-building units will earn his maximum payments for planting within special allot ments, such as tobacco, cotton, pea nuts and commercial win at potatoes and vegetables in designated coun ties" As an example of how the new Farmer Jones had set up for his farm a total farm payment of $100, made up of $50 for planting within spec ial crop allotments and $50 to be earned for carrying out practices, such as seeding legumes and grasses, winter cover crops and green man ure crops, terracing, contour strip cropping; forestry practices, hon gardening, application of liming ma terials. and the like. "If Farmer Jones only carries out enough soil-building practices to cam $40 of hl? soll-buildlhg allow ance, then he would only get $40 of his special allotment payments, giv ing Farmer Jones a final total pay ment of $80 instead of $100. That's because he earned only 80 per cent of his soil-building goal. Of course, if he carried out enough practice to earn his entire $50 in soil-building allowance, he would receive his full i $50 for planting within special crop | allotments." , f Nearly 2,000 Take FirU Health TV*/* In County Dr. J W Williams, health officer, stated today that 1,986 draftees had taken preliminary health teats in thi* county. (Greece Is Holding Firm Against The Invading Italians Turkey IVorlaims Its Mliance Jo Itritain. lint Will Not Muter War Now Holding dear their mutual inde- ; petitionee, ah army of 100.000 Greeks, supported by their fellow country men and by England, is offering a stubborn resistance to the invading Italian hordes. Mussolini's modern- j i/ed troops are being thrown back | along the rugged front at a number | of points, tin* defenders turning back several mechanized units, including modern tanks, and isolating several companies. The Greek attack i^ adding confu sion to an already confusing world. No real state of war is said to exist, oiie report stating today that the Greek ambassador to Italy continues in Rome and that the Italian am bassador to Greece continues in Ath- 1 ens. The war is gaining momentum 1 in southern Europe, however, and considerable activity in the air is j being reported there. Italian planes are bombing close to Athens, con siderable damage having been done to the airport there. British planes, retaliating for the Greeks, poured death and destruction from the air on Naples, Italy. It was the first time that air attacks have been directed! on that portion of the boot. Unrest in the Balkans is growing steadily. Turkey today referred to Britain as her ally, the declaration carrying much meaning at this par ticular time. Greece, stating that she ean handle the Italian situation if Bulgaria dot s not enter the picture, has not called upon Turkey for aid. Present indications point to an inva ion of Turkey by Germany. If that plan is followed and if Russia docs not take a hand, the outlook for Brit ain will grow darker It is believed that Mussolini and Hitler are becom ing suspicious of each other, that Mussolini's move into Greece does not have the general approval of Hitler. It is possible that the two and same thing. Air raids over London were re newed today after a comparatively quiet night. Forty planes, including six Italian bombers, were routed in one of three raids made on the city up until noon. Holding a watchful eye over the possibility of an alliance between France and Germany, the United States is sending out several naval units and a number of planes, to the South. Possibly the forces will cruise around Martique and investigate a report that a German submarine had been sighted near the Panama canal. There's a report today still main taining that war between the United States and Japan is likely. A call for stepping up air plane production to 50,000 units annually in this country is being heard in Washington. I.oral School I'll/tils Enjoy Hnlloireen Party Sponsored by the home rooms and student organizations of the loeal high school, the Halloween festival held in the gymnasium last night, was well attended. Over 100 chil dren were dressed in interesting and III igiiuil costumes, presenting a dif ficult task for the judges. Prizes were awarded to the wear ers of the prettiest and most origi nal costumes. Tommy Cooke, three | year-old youth, dressed as "Uncte Sam," was a popular winner of one prize, and Kenneth Lindsley, "The Boy with the Big Tummy," was ad judged the winner for originality The various sideshows and games reported good business, and a good time was had by all. The boys glee club and the Gurganus brothers hand furnished the music. CARD OF THANKS .

Sheriff* Tax Sale Will Be Held Here Siexl Montlay The property of 611 owners, de-' linquent in their tax payments, will be placed on the auction block at the courthouse door here next Mon day noon for sale by the sheriff-col The list of delinquents is the small est in a number of years, the num ber of property parcels being less than eight per cent of the total tax accounts in the county. While any person is eligible to buy in the property at the auction, it is quite likely the county will be the pnncipal purchaser. School Report Turd* ire To Re Distributed Soon ????v??
