In a news article issued today from
the headquarters of the North Car
olina Tuberculosis Association an
nouncement is made that in Orange
County there were 22 deaths from
tuberculosis last year and that the
present time there ar eight times as
many active, open cases if tuberculos
is, the majority of whome are taking
no precautions whatever to keep from
killing themselves and infecting
everyone they come in contact with;
because in a great many instances
they are not even aware that they
have tuberculosis. As a step toward
correcting this condition and saving
the lives uselessly sacrificed to tuber
culosis the Association asks Mr
Average Citizen, “How Much Do You
Care?”
It is pointed out that “tuberculosis
is no respector of persons unless a
high standard of resistance is main
tained by keeping in good physical
condition all the time; that tuber
culosis is not as hereditary as gen
erally believed that the best check
on your physical condition is a
thorough looking over at regular in
tervals”. all of which is true and'
good advice.
The Association goes a step further
and volunteers to send an examiner
to this county who will spend as
much time as required to give a
thourough physical examination for
tuberculosis to anyone who is suspici
ous that they have tuberculosis and
wishes to know positively.
This service is provided by the As
sociation from receipts derived from
the sale of Tuberculosis Christmas
seals and no charge is made for the
examination. The only requirement
being that someone sufficiently in-
trested make the preliminary arrange-

LITTLE HISTORY OF ELM

The first house was built in 1846-
’47, on a plot of land five and half
miles south of Hillsboro, four-half
mils south of New Hope creek, a few
hundred yards east of Hillsboro and
Chapel Hill road, was a log structue
with rock chimney and large fire-
place.
Tradition says the house was con
tracted to be built for $80.00. Three
men in the community did the car-
permonth.

pay and less work was not in
