Decreased Deaths from Diphtheria in State Show Value of Antitoxin Won’t Last Long This Merchant Believes Hon esty is Best Policy or Is Careless in His Advertising ^Ve have always heard that “Honesty is the best policy,” but we’ve only recently found a mer chant who is willing to practice this policy to the limit in his ad vertising, and he is a Moore county merchant, if you please. Or, it may be that he did not mean exactly what he said; judge for yourself. This is the wording on the sale paper: “Men’s work shoes. All solid leather; double soled—They won’t last long—$1.84.” DOC HUSSEY FOUND DEAD NEAR HOME OF NEIGHBOR Doc Hussey, a well-to-do farmer of upper Moore county, was found dead near Brown’s mill above* Hemp about 2:30 o’clock Sunday afternoon.

C. Only 19 Deaths This September As Compared to 38 in Same Month Last Year At this season of the year deaths from diphtheria have nearly always been more excessive than at any other time. If parents, teachers and phy sicians will act together in order to promptly discover any evidence of diphtheria in the very earliest stages, and if teachers will promptly send home any child having the slightest complaint of sore throat, and then if a competent physician is immediete- ly consulted and anti-toxin used in sufficiently large doses, there gener ally need be no fear of death from diphtheria. Deaths reported to the State Board of Health for the month of Septem ber indicate two things with reference to diphtheria this year. The first is that evidently a great many more children have been Immunized dur ing the spring months by using tox in anti-toxin; and second, the parents and physicians were much more alert than usual. The reason for this state ment is based on the fact that, where as in September 1929, 38 deaths were reported to the State Board of Health from diphtheria, in September of this year there were reported exactly half that number, or 19 deaths. A one hun dred per cent reduction in the mor tality of any disease is a somewhat remarkable record to accomplish in one year. At the same time these 19 deaths could have been prevented by, first, using toxin-antitoxin in three full immunizing doses, say, last Ap ril and May or even June; and, sec ond, where it was not used, if a com petent physician had seen each one of these 19 children the first day of its illness, and had administered -a large dose of curative antitoxin, the chances are, instead of their ha^nng been 19 deaths, there would not have been a single death. “The purpose of this message is to urge upon everybody concerned with the care and training of chil dren at this time to be on the alert every moment in order to prevent the approach of so insidious a disease as diphtheria, and so to prevent the us ual large number of deaths for this season of the year from that disease,’* says Dr. Symington, Public Health Officer.

Monday was the lightest day of re cent months in Recorder’s Court, only two or three oases being disposed of. Arthur Fry was before the court on a charge of non-support, and in another case along with Clyde Black was charged with the larceny of an automobile, driving an automobile while intoxicated, transporting and being drunk on the highway. As to the charge of larceny of an automo bile, the evidence was not sufficient to make a case. Fry was found guilty of being publicly drunk, but judg ment was suspended on the payment of the costs in this and the non-sup- por^ case. Clyde Black was found guilty of possessing one half pint of liquor for bis own use and not for the purpose of sale, and of transporting the same in his pocket. Judgment was suspend ed upon payment of the costs. Mr. and Mrs. James Buchanan of Broadway were guests in the home of Mr. and Mrs. T. D. McLean last Sun day. PUNCTUALITY PROMPTNESS PRECISION Well, did you vote early and of ten ? One man at the polls was heard to ask which of the candidates the pictures at the top of the ticket were supposed to represent. When told it was an Australian ballot he said he had always thought there were ele phants in Australia, but didn’t know they had mules there. Another voter when asked if he was a socialist said he wasn’t sure, his mother was a Methodist and his fath er a Baptist, but a doctor once told him he was a somnambulist; anyhow, he always voted a straight ticket. Still another was heard to remark that he once had a friend who was a Taoist, and knew a man who was a Buddhist, but he thought the in ventor of the Austrilian ballot must have been a Confusionist. The Bank of Pinehurst is neither socialist, confusionist nor somnam bulist. It is always wide awake and prepared to render service with punc tuality, promptness and precision.
