Anti-Typhoid Vaccination., If everybody took every reasonable precaution agaljfit Typhoid we would not have many chances of contracting th? disease. A number of people we are sure, will not do this, and it" there fore behooves us to safeguard oursel ves to the utmost extent. Modern science hasprovlded a way of almost absolutely preventing the growth ot these "germs" in the human body once they gain access. It is by means of "Anti-Typhoid Vaccination." Three treatments . given a week or ten days apart are necessary to confer immuni ty. It is safe practically, painKfee. causes no open sore, and gives won derful protection. By thla means, .rmy. It s pr three or four years, perhaps longer . The Vaccine is furnished free by t he State. Your Health Officer will im munize you free of charge. If you can't find the Health Officer, see your Doctor. There i3 no reason for tak ing chances with a disease that at tacks one person out of three and kills orre out of every ten of its victims. C. H. O. - . Endorses Judge Bond. The following resolutions were pas sed by the Bar of Franklin County, and Court officials at the August terra of Franklin Superior Court, 1916, Judge W. M. Bond, Presiding. We, the Bar, and Officers of the Court, heartily endorse the following resolutions That whereas, this is the first term of Court held by Judge W. M. Bond tn the County of Franklin, we desire to express to him our deep appreciation of his fair and equitable judlcIr-1 tern perament, of his kind and affable dls. position toward the Bar, the officers of the Court, the Jury and the public. We unhesitatingly say, that no Judge has ever presided over our Courts who has won more satisfaction nnd gener al apprecltion and commendation than has Judge Bond at this, his first appearance, among us. We wish for him a long p.nd happy ltfe dnd many returns to oar County. The above resolution was adopter! by a rising vote ct every person in the Court room. Judge Bond has made a fine impression on our people. Return Marriage Licenses. We are requested to Btate that all Magistrates, Ministers of the Gospel, and all others authorized tp conduct marriage ceremonies had better re-, turn marriage licenses to Register or Deeds or the fine will be imposed. We are Informed that there is a large number of licenses Issued that have never been returned for record ing and therefore renders the county record incomplete. This 1b an Import ant matter and should receive imme diate attention. Where crimson clover and V9tch ,have never beta successfully grown before, we would urgently reconfmend Inoculation to Insure success. This may be done either with soil from where these crops have I previously grown or with the commercial cul tures. The process Is simple, and to neglect It Is an Invitation to failure. ?
