SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 29. 1916 CLEANING UP AN ESSENTIAL. The New Bam Sun Journal -reported in its Thursday's Issue that a case of infantile paralysis had been discov ered in New Bern, and the Sun-Journal very wisoly laid emphasis upon the necessity for taking every precau tion to prevent the spread of the terrible and mysterious malady, which is baffling medical science and blighting the lives of hundreds of boys and girb throughout the country. Of course, one ease, in the vernacular of some of our Kinston physicians, is not alarming. Widely scattered . farmers in the spring, asking each cases hav been discovered in many parts of the country . :k.w many men he must have WONT CALL EASTERN LABORERS TO WHEAT FIELDS UNTIL NEEDED (Ey the United Press) Topeka, Kan., July 29. The State employment bureau .announced today "hat it won't call an army of eastern laborers to the Kansas harvest fields :ict summer until it has a job for cvfry man called. The bureau will malts a canvas of ; i'fHw prospects of a first-class European plan eating K " ' fwm . - . .... t A for Kinston will not only be pleasing to tne rravei- public, but to many of the business men, who would T&etydoubt frequently take a meal downtown in the middle of the day and entertain a visitor at lunch if the facili ties for ao doing were better. since 'the serious outbreak in New York City had lis bi ginning a few weeks ago, but the fact that other epi demics have not been suffered is due, no doubt, to the prompt precautionary measures which have been taken in the communities where such scattered cases have been discovered. Although medical science admits that it is confronted with problems In the treatment and handling of this dis ease, which have not yet been solved, it is noticeable that clean-up campaigns are immediately started wherever iny cases have developed. That being the ease, The Free Press thinks the wise thing to do is to cleanup before my cases develop, and perhaps not only prevent any :aaca of infantile paralysis, but other infectious diseases, which may be propagated by unsanitary conditions. The people of Kinston and the rural' districts would do wull to see that their premises are made sanitary, that the weeds find rubbish, which is apt to accumulate in vacant places are cleaned out There is no need, and there is no tense in waiting for the horse to be stolen before locking the stable door. Ihider tho present system harvest uri are sent to the farmers as calls are made for them. The result has been that generally there is an esti mate given out far over the number ir.en actually needed. Men who 'orac from eastern places sometimes ?Io not get sufficient work to pay for heir trip to the state. WHAT OTHERS SAY Congratulations to Scotland -Neck on the municipal im provfemcnts which wa learn from the esteemed Common wealth an to be undertaken at once. Our contemporary regards the completion of the- plans for the work with so much favor that it makes the announcement in bold red fatten on It front page. e ' , hat Mr. Hughes will say when he is officially noti- f ! ilf his nomination for President by the Republican 4a wlday next ia a matter of speculation, but the fact that ha wiH have to say something and break the mon otonous silence, which has characteriied his campaign prior o and subsequent to his nomination, is aomo con solation at least Inasmuch aa there is apparently so much trouble to de termine the identity of the mysterious night prowler, which entered the Chesapeake Bay a night or two ago, it would not ho amiaa for Uncle Sam's watch-dogs to put an Sunder bit or a "crop" with a twelve-inch shell into the next such visitor in order that 'jth identity of those foreign warships which would violate' the neutrality of our waters may be determined without question. Publisher John Park and (Managing Editor Lyons of the Raleigh Times passed through Kinston Friday from Beaufort, where it la alleged they traveled in anticipa tion of the arrival of the German submarine Bremen. Measra. Park and Lyons were welcome visitors o The Fro Press office, and it was a source of regret that they were on euch a forced march as to preclude their stop ping Jong enough to imbibe sufficiently of the crystal wa ter from our fountains as to appreciate the merit of our ckhn to the best water on earth and to enjoy other marks of our hospitality. - The boya at Camp Glenn, according to a atory carried in the news columns of Friday's Free Presa, are laying claim (to first place In the list of truly American regi ments. It la said that 97 or 98 per cent of the boys in the three regimenta now at Camp Glenn are native-born North Carolinians, and that not over 1 por cent, of the remaining two or three are foreign born. The Free Press believes that the claim to the title of having the purest stock U well founded, and the attention of the United Press Is called to the claim that their versatile corres pxwdent, William G. Shepherd, may know that the black ONE BODY. Greensboro News: "W. H. Swift, a mountaineer him jelf, writes from Atlanta, enclosing a check, 'the moun tain people are proud as the dickens, and when they cry hslp, they need help.' True enough; but the last thing the people in the flooded districts ought to feel is that htr pride is in any way affected by an appeal to North Carolina. Had they been compelled to coll on New Eng land, or the West or even the South at' large, there might have been a lojch of humiliation in it; for it would have been an appeal to comparative Btrangers. Du. there is a ast difference between calling on perfect strangers and -ailing on the neighbors round about We all know tha 'f Guilford had Ven devastated by some convulsion of nature, Wilkes would have been right on the job with all '.he help she could offer; naturally Guilford cannoi do otherwise than come to the rescue when Wilkes is in the hole." "Already the silver lining of the cloud of trouble that has settled over the mountains h beginning to appear, The solidarity of the State is being emphasized with pe culiar force. North Carolina is one body. It happens that it was the mountains that were struck, hut the shock has run clear down to tidewater." SLAUGTERING THE INNOCENTS. University News Letter: "An examination of the school .hildren in a rural district of New York State also show. d that 61.6 per cent, of the children were suffering from adenoids or diseased tonsils; 51.3 per cent had defective teeth; 30 per cent, enlarged glands; 18.6 per cent, defect ive vision; 10 per cent were anemic; 7.2 per cent were tubercular; 5 per cent suffered from skin diseases; 3.2 per cent from spinal diseases; 2 per cent, from defective hearing; 2 per cent were mentally defective; and 1 per cent, had hernia. "The normal children were only 2.55 per cent of the total examined. The grownups do not challenge sympathy quite as the children do. It i not conceivable that fathers and moth ers anywhere are unconcerned about the welfare of their hildren. They are simply ignorant of their children's ailments. But will they be content to remain so in Orange or any other county in this or any other State? "Does such a state of affairs exist in the country re gions of North varolina? It is well worth investiga tion. "King Ignorance slaughters more babes in every county of the State than ever King Herod did in Bethlehem." FIFTY CRACK SWIMMERS IN A CHICAGO CONTEST (By the United Press) Chicago, July 29. .Fifty of the country's crack amateur swimmers were all set today for the Illinois Athletic 'Club's ninth annual river swim, in the Chicago river this after noon. The race is wo and a half miles, starting at the mouth of the "iver in Lake Michigan and ending at the 'Fifth avenue bridge. The last ace was swum in 1915, the event be irnr called off last year because of the Kastland disaster, when 812 excur sionists perished in the Chicago river wher the boat turned turtle. UNCLE SAM HAS GOOD WORD FOR BRICK ROAD (By the United Press) Washington, July 29. Continuing its advice on road-building, the U. 3. office of good roads today discuss ed brick as a building material. Forty-four years ago the first brick oad in the United States was con structed in Charleston, W. Va. "The experience of forty-four years,'' says the U. Office of Good Roads, "has demonstrated that it is entirely practical to construct satis factory brick roads." "These roads, "say Uncle Sam's sxperts, "now are giving general sat isfaction, when properly constructed and it is probable that their mileage will continue to increase rapidly." The principal advantage of the brick road according to the government road service are: 1. Durability under practically all traffic conditions. 2. They afford easy traction and rood foothold. 3. Easily maintained and kept lean. The only disadvantage attributed a this type of road is the high init al cost. Physician's Eczema Remedy Dr. Holmes, the veil-known skin special 1st, writes: .
