(By, John C. Brammer) ::;::;..
Lieut. John 0. Wood, Webster,

around. The High School pupils
gave an interesting program at the '
last Community Club meeting.
j Webster, Qualla and Caney. Fork
townships have done honor to them
selves and to humanity by raising
the required . amounts to pay- for
premiums which go back to them.
The County, Agent feels grateful for
the cooperation he received while
traversing the beautiful mountains
of these three townships! . Never
have there been more wide awake
ajid appreciative people,
J The Countr Agent hopes to finish
raising enough money in R i ver
Township Sept 22 to help the State

list.
I So great is the interest in phones
that big meetings at John's Creek

DIPHTHERIA
Some days ago there appeared in
a well-known periodical an adver
tisement that ran like this: "Total
ignorance." Ignorance feeds the
ranks of Bolshevists, I. W. W. A.,
criminals, loafers, and ail other
cooties that infest human society,"
but ignorance isn't wholly confined
to solid ivory heads, all ignorance
doesn't come out of Russia, ignor
ance isn't alway criminal its just
Lack of Knowledge, and ignorance
is more general than we admit. In
fact, ignorance is the "nigger" in the
woodpile today." This is
the way
the business man looks at ignorance.
Ignorance, lack of knowledge, is the
wrench so -often thrown into the
gear of Health work. Carelessness
also has a place in retarding effec-
tive disease prevention.

About three yeare ago I was tak
en with a severe case of rheuma
tism and indigestion which caused
much pain and suffering. The best
doctors treated me for months with
put giving me any relief. After
making a complete failure of my
case they told me that the nerves
muscles of my legs were so
diseased that I could never be cured.
IWENTIT CHIDREN
OPERATED ON
Wednesday about twenty child
ren of the county were operated on
by Drs. Candler and McCracken at
the improvised hospital which was
fitted up at the Red Cross room.
over Hooper's Drug Store. This work
was done under the di
the State Board of Health, two nur
ses, Misses Pratt and Williams
having been here for several weeks
examining the school children and
getting ready the hospital. Dr. Mc
Cracken came over fronv Waynes
yille Wednesday bringing with him
Miss Evelyn Abel, a graduate nurse
of John Hopkins, who administered
the anesthetics.
The childrtn of the state are
indeed fortunate in having the op
portunity of having their adenoids
and diseased tonsils removed at a
nominal cost, without the trouble
and expense of going to a hospital
and at the same time receiving the
&diue care irom expert nurses and
doctors that they would have in
hospitals.
Besides the nurses already men
tioned, Mss Lucy Divelbiss, of
Asheville and Miss Dunn assisted
in caring for the little patients.
Demobilization of the army,
which practically will be comnleted'
in a few weeks, will release railroad
passenger equipment in Dart from
the tremendous strain put upon it
since the United States wPnt tn
war. Many hundreds of coaches
and sleeping cars now employed in.
troop movement will be freed for
ordinary service, thus enabling the
railroads to provide more adequate
ly for the comfort and convenience
of the heavy general passenger trav
el which is taxing their limited fa
cilities to the utmost.
Throughout the war and during
the months that have followed the
armistice, large numbers of coaches
and sleepers have been constantly . .
iu .uiiu7 vibe.
tilities in Europe did not mean that
war work was over for American
railroads. The home-coming of the
army and demobilization furnished
a task almost as great and exact
ing as the war itself. In July, the
atest month tor which figures are
available, 949,660 soldiers were
moved on the railroads within, the
United States; including men$ re
luming from overseas, nlenldis-
charged and men moving between
camps. rJeven hundred and, seventy-three
troop trains were operat
ed, carrying an average of 421 men
each and traveling an average dis
tance ot bU3 miles.
In addition to the strain of troop
movements, there was heavy com
mercial travel during the war in
connection with the military activ-
ties, and families and friends of
soldiers moved about freely going
to and from the camps. This kept,
cars constantly in use, and made it
imperative that the railroads bring
out every available piece of equip
ment. Lines which..before had al
most reached the . ideal of modern
all-steel cars, were obliged to put
into general service old and worn
equipment usually used only to
meet the demands of excursions
and other special occasions.
One of my legs at this time had
perished away to half its natural
size; I then took all the guaranteed
remedies that I could hear of with
out getting the slightest relief. I ,
was finally persuaded by my wife
to try a bottle of Garren's Blood
Purifier and Tonic, and the results
were really wonderful. Before I
had taken a fifty cent bottle my in
digestion was gone and I could eat
and sleep well. The pains went
away and I improved so rapidly
that in less than sixty days I was
completely cured. And best of all.
it has been twelve months since I
have felt any of my bid symptoms.
JNow I can do all kinds of heavv
lifting without ever feeling any in
convenience from my rheumatism.
I am a strong and healthy man and
tip the scales at 180 pounds.
