HEALTH AND MYHIENE i E. R. Hardin, Health Officer. Rcdwson county with its enormous awa. vast rtarmtceis ami three races of people is almost an empire in it seif .In 1^23, 16-1? children were lmrn in Robeson county. In M22 there wera 504 deatlrs from a!i causes in Hebe* sen county. The same year there were 203 deaths in chiidren under five years oM .excluding still births; and 13d deaths in chiidren under 1 year< o!d exclusive of still births. Thus wc c-ee that the infant mortality is h'gh, and constitutes a very large per' cent of.the iota! death rate. This is due largely to a inch of knowledge on the pari of many of our people, of even the elementary requirements of the pregnant mother, and the young baby. In other words, they need a broad general knowledge of how ^to take care of the pregnant mothers and young babies, especially the artifi cially fed babies. How are the pa _ touts, for instance, who employ the 13(1 ignorant mid wives in the county, to obtain the knowledge? Certainly not through the midwives. The mid ^wives have done nothing to reduce the maternal and infant mortality in a! the hundreds of years they, have been operating ,so we need ex <m .. ! pert little he!p from that direction, j The solntion of the problem, as ' c tlier countries have fully demon strated, is the education of the wo men, so that they will employ train ed physicians to attend them during the period of pregnancy and child birth; and to supervise the care and I feeding of their young babim in the homes. This is a big program, and one which wili require personal con tact and teaching b? bUydrc 'most a; bring n] niesoT of a phy eayittt-cb amd efi wiStgivb general advice aild instructions as to how the pregnant mother should care for her self; and the other mothers should care for their babies. He will advise them to cdnsult their family physi cian when in his judgment it is ne cessary. These conferences will serve, to place many pregnant mothers with complications who are in the hands of midwives, under the care of physi cians. They will also bring many ba bies, who are victims of the evil in fluences of luidwives ,and neighbor ing grannies, under competent medi cal jurisdiction. This is the aim of Peaches for Canning ' BEGFX\JXG M()S<DA), JLLY 2Sth, we will have at our orchard , 1 !-2 miles east of KA1RMOXT, nice' "Elberta " and "Elberta Rose " Peaches for canning and preserving.

LOOKING AT THBT MANS FIELD BASEBALL CLUB. Special to The Robcsonian and to tbe Manhfield Baseball club: It is mighty strange they have got such a fast ball club and we have challenged them for a game on their own ground and they will not give it to us. They have such a good club, we tpeat them 2 out of fpur and tied them one of them. They have nut beat us but one game out of the 1 games played, and anytime they want a game we arc ready to play them cn their diamond. (Signed) Cauley Fields Capt. of the Bladenboro Bail Club. E .E.

Another Fight On K!an !s Planned Features of Louis ana Ant!-K lan Lev May Se Embodied in HiM—Session May Extend Beyond 29-Day Limit } SENTIMENT AGAINST GEARY i Raliegh—Another fight on the i^ar i is being planned for the apis^&S^ijC sion by Representative \f. Hr'^ ^* gwyB, of Northampton county, wis said toc!ay" he will introdn.*^,; ;a hiti ' embodying the features tM Lt^nsi ana anti-klan act. . the Louisiana law prohibits the i mas!: and requires registration of ! membership, provisions similar to those contained in the bi!! which pass I ed the house of the 1923 genera! as sembly but met defeat in the sena'o. "I have written for a copy of the Louisiana law and as soon as I ra iceive it I expect to prepare a bill for introduction in the special ses sion", Retro -optative Burgwyn said. "The goveinoi- of Louisiana said a: : New York that the anti-klan hi!! had killed the organization." Fight in Legislature. The house and senate fought over the Man for several days at the 1923 session of the North CafroHna legis lature. The house passed an unmask : ing bill, the senate killed it and of fered a substitute and the house kill ed the substitute. Defeat of the anti-kian bill in the last session was attributed by Mr. Burgwyn to klan membership and a hostile feeling between the house and senate. Asked how m ny ' klansmen he thinks are members of the state legislature, he estimated the number at twenty. Since the 1923 fight Judge Henry A .Grady, grand dragon of the klan, 1 as made a move to gain prestige for his organization by commg out into the open as its official spokes man, thereby giving it a responsibie head, and by putting North Carolina klansmen on record in opposition to the mask. * Mr. Burgwyn has heard of con siderable Sentiment for the impeach ment of Judge Grady because of his leadership of the klan. "A democratic leader said to me that he Was apprehensive that a re publican member of the house might introduce a resolution for the im peachment of Judge Grady," he de clared. ''I told him he should also be apprehensive about democratic members who are extremely hostile to the idea of the grand dragon of the klan sitting cn the superior court bench." The only charge that can be made against Judge Grady is his klm con nections aim Mi*. Durgwyn, Who has NO FEA^!
