O, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1954. iSanitarianOf District Stresses Cleanliness As Health Protection K. J. Eyer Emphasizes Importance of Clean Homes K. J. Eyer, sanitarian for the Dis trict Health Department, urges thor ough cleanliness in the home as a , health protection. Mr. Eyer has this to say: • Sanitation is away of life. It is the quality of living that is express ed in the clean home, the clean farm, the clean business and industry, the clean neighborhood, the clean com munity. Being away of life it must come from within the people: it is nourished by knowledge and grows as an obligation and an ideal in human relations. Today people expect to have a long er span of life than our ancestors as | a result of the wonderful develop j ments in the medical field and our , better understanding of health protec- Ition. Good sanitation is one of thej (chief responsibilities of public health. This is true because of the relation of I sanitation to preventive medicine. While it may not be true that unclean lliness, within itself always causes di sease, we do know that filth is a! breeding place for many germs. That is why it is necessary, in the interest of good faith, to promote environment sanitation and personal cleanliness. One will find the evasion of the laws of sanitation and downright care j lessness of individuals, block progress i ! toward bettering the appearance and | | sanitation of a community and es- 1 pecially healthy living conditions of the individual. Medical profession notes that communities or areas in I which epidemics and disease has been! most prevalent are those which have j low health records, rodents, flies, poor j environment conditions; etc. The health of each member of the i family depends upon the health ana j behavior of all members in the home. 1 In other words, everyone from the old est members to the youngest must learn and do his part in order that the most benefit may be expected from the family plan of healthy liv ing. Cleanliness around the home is de sirable because it adds to attractive ness, it gives to the home-dweller a sense of self-respect, it acts as a stim ulant to right living. It is not easy for people to he as careful of their conduet when they live in unclean places as it is when alt surroundings j "W' EEK-END } j Fresh Pork Picnics 1b....... 39c I I Fresh Dressed Hens, lb __4sc | I Fresh Beef Liver (sliced), lb 29c | I HARRELL’S OLE VIRGINNY i 1 Sliced Bacon, 1-lb. cello 65c I Fresh Cut Rib Steaks, lb 59c | I Center Cut Pork Chops, lb _ 69c I I SWIFT’S BROOKFIELD | I Sausage, 8-oz. pkg 35c I I Mrs. Filbert’s Oleomargarine, 1b... .29c 1 | Ballard’s Oven-Ready Biscuits, 2 cans 25c | I Wesson Oil, qt. bottle 73c | I 8-POUND PAILS I Harrell’s Pure Lard $1.791 I Swift Corned Beef, 12-oz. can 47c | 17-OUNCE PACKAGE 33 | Pillsbury Chocolate Cake Mix 35c 33 I 17-OUNCE PACKAGE | ;; Pillsbury Yellow Cake Mix 35c ;; 14-OUNCE PACKAGE 31 3 3 Pillsbury Angel Food Cake Mix 57c 3 3 13%-OUNCE PACKAGE ' • ;; Pillsbury Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix 37c <; ;; Large Lettuce, 2 heads. 29c \ \ ;; New Florida Grapefruit, 3 for 25c ;; ;; Bartlett Pears, 4 for 17c j \ Large Bananas, 2 lbs 25c ;; !;; Red Bliss Potatoes, 10-lb. bag 39c ;; DAIL’S GROCERY; 33 NORTH EDENTON 33 3 3 NO ORDER TOO SMALL NOR TOO LARGE 3 3 33 FREE DELIVERY EVERY DAY 3 3 33 PHONE 71 33 * ' are bright and clean. ' | If dirt should bear no relation to i' disease, there still would be good and sufficient reason for cleanliness, i Nothing is more unattractive than ) dirt, nothing else gives such a sense of poverty and loss of self-respect. I All dirt is not dangerous; yet all dirt is to he avoided. Dirt may be classi fied as any of three kinds: 1. Dirt which is in itself danger , ous, like the waste from human bod ies. 2. Dirt which may be dangerous, like decaying animal or vegetable matter in which flies breed; for flies will go to exposed human wastes and then carry disease germs to human beings. 3. Dirt which is harmless in itself hut may become dangerous like piles of tin cans where rain water accumu lates and mosquitoes breed, or piles of rubbish which may harbor decay- ' 1 ing matter or disease-laden filth. Health and comfort to a large ex tent are dependent upon a good sani tary environment and high personal hygiene standards. The provision of an adequate and safe water supply, the proper disposal of human waste, a safe milk supply, insect and rodent control, the proper disposal of gar bage and trash, general cleanliness and the observance of health habits, are very essential. The chief object of personal hygiene is to attain and j maintain a high level of health so as to use and enjoy the blessing of well | being. Good health makes possible the highest enjoyment of life and the best service in the world. Health does not consist simply in keeping out of (the hospital. Good health consists in keeping the body and mind at the bes<* level. Today, when so much is heard of the remarkable progress in the pre vention of disease, we too frequently forget that we have had and still do (have a very effective and inexpensive .method of preventing illness, namely, (the use of soap and water. Since our hands come in contact with so many things that can be detrimental to our I health, every member of the family (should form the habit early of wash ing their hands carefully and often. If one will apply a good common sense application of cleanliness around the home much can be accomplished j to make life more pleasant and safer. 47 JAILED IN SEPTEMBER Jailer Herman White reports that during September 47 persons were placed in the Chowan County jail with confinements ranging from one to 17 days. The cost, including jail and turnkey fees, telephone, soap and pow der, amounted to $377.48. AL OWENS, JR.. BREAKS LEG Friends in Edenton will regret to learn that A1 Owens, Jr., broke his leg in the football game Saturday ) night between Catawba and East Car olina College. 'Your Ironing Jobs Begin On The Line It’s not on the ironing board that' ironing begins. Your clothes line is the starting point. The way you hang your clothes on the line can simplify your ironing i procedure, says Mamie Whisnant, State College home management spe cialist. Hang a]l garments on the line by their strongest points. For example, hang shirts and pajama tops with the tail several inches over the line. Pin at side seams and at center front to hold shirt front closed and to dry it straight. Dry jackets and blouses on hangers. Some jackets may be hung by the hem hut generally they’ll have fewer wrinkles if allowed to dry on a hanger. Dry dresses on rust-proof hangers or hang on the line by shoulders at A Cordial Invitation ☆ Your fellow-citizens, the parishners of St. Ann’s Church, Edenton, extend to the general public a sincere and warm welcome to a series of lectures explaining their Catholic Faith. OCTOBER 7 Christ is God! “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God.” (matt. 16; 16) OCTOBER 14 Christ in the Church. “The Church is His Body” (eph. 1:22) OCTOBER 21 You live in Christ! “This Life is in His Son.” (1 jn. 5:11) OCTOBER 28 Christ in You! “You are in Me, and I am in You.” (jn. 14:20) These lectures will take place in St. Ann’s Church on North Broad Street on the Thurs day evenings of October at 8 o’clock.

Miss Whisnant 1 says you’ll find that pants dried on ■pants stretchers require little or no i pressing. , Towels and pillowcases will blow free from wrinkles and creases if they 'are hung about one-third over the line. Hang pillowcases with hem open end down. There’s also a trick to clothes from the line that will save you more time from the ironing board. Fold flat pieces (sheets, bedspreads, table clothes, etc.) as they’re removed from the line and place them flat on the bottom of your laundry cart or basket. This practice will keep at a minimum wrinkles that must be iron ed out later. Fold and place together those pieces that won’t need ironing like washcloths and towels. And then place together in a basket the clothes to he sprinkled.
