Box 1342, Asheville, N. C. . . S15-2tc-S25 Two Union Sunday Schools Organized Two union Sunday schools have been organized in jMacort county by R; H. Hull, missionary, of the American Sunday school uniori( who, with Mrs. Hull, has rfeeently come to Franklin to take up this work; ' One school has been organized on Coweta creek with over 100 enroll ed, in a section which is. several miles from a church, where the young people do not attend any Sunday .school. The schoolhouse is used for this school., Turtle Pond cpmmunity Is. the location of the second school, five or six miles from the nearest church, where there has, not been a Sunday school for. 15 years, and where the gather ings are held in one of the homes of the neighborhood. A school has also been organized in Georgia, just over the line from Macon county in the Tate City set tlement, where the nearest church is eight miles away. . Mr. Hull explained that the American Sunday school union, with headquarters. In Philadelphia, has maintained its helpful ministry to the homes along the "Back Roads" of America since, 1817, so that many unreached children might have the privilege of Christian teaching and training. , " The following statement explains relation. to the churches: "We co operate most heartily with all the churches and denominational agen cies. One of the fines fruitages of our work is discovered in the number of churches that have had their origin in a Union Sunday school." Members of these isolated schools are urged to connect them selves with the church of their choice and become working mem bers. In addition to Sunday .schools, the fact is brought out that rural missionary work Jnvolves many things, besides the establishing of Sunday schools in needy and neg lected communities. Sometimes a visit to an isolated home means ministering for hours to the sick and dying perhaps a trip to the doctor or hospital where the dis tance of a remote neighborhood would otherwise make these ser vices impossible. , .. . ., " Mr. and Mrs. Hull bespeak the cooperation and prayers of all peo ple of the county in this new work.

Auutant District Health Officer Macon County Heaflth Dept. There are at present, scattered about Macon county, quite a few cases of contagious diseases. Most of these cases are whooping cough. However? seveTaI"ta5ey are -septic sore throat and a few suspicious of diphtheria. , Vaccination will prevent most of the contagious diseases we have to deal with each year. There are ef fective vaccinations which protect against diphtheria, smallpox and ty phoid fever, therefore these dis eases are absolutely inexcusable. Against whooping cough there is a vaccination which gives some im munity in about two-thirds of the cases vaccinated. Parents are guilty of negligence when they fail to have their children" vaccinated against all contagious diseases against which there is a vaccination offered. , : Every child should be vaccinated against diphtheria at six months of age. The child should receive vaccination against smallpox and whooping cough at one year of age. Typhoid vaccination should be giv en any time after the other vacci nations have been completed. Six nionths after each diphtheria vaccination the child should have the Schick test to determine wheth er the vaccination has given in munity against diphtheria. A child should be vaccinated against .smallpox until it gets a scar. The smallpox vaccination should be repeated every seven years. Typhoid vaccinations should be repeated every ' two years. Parents, lease do not neglect your children longer. These pro tections are available almost for the asking, let us keep disease from the children in Macon county.
