Micro Boy Meets
Horrible Death
Elmer Woodruff, 14
Year Old Boy Is
ICaught Under Log
And Literally Crush
ed to Death
One of the most tragic happen
ings ever to take place in the vi
cinity of Micro was the accident
Tuesday afternoon which caused
the instant death of Elmer Wood
ruff, fourteen year old son of Mr.
Frank Woodruff.
After school Tuesday afternoon,
the young boy and his brother went
to a new ground to pick up roots.
They worked for a time, and then
the brother went bo the house for
a pitchfork to assist in moving the
roots. While he was gone, Elmer
sat down on a gum Jjg that was in
a pile nearby and began rocking
to and fro. The log on which he i
was sitting, a log about 14 feet
long and about 20 inches in di- 1
ameter, was kept from rolling down
^ slight incline by a smaller log,
and the jostling of the boy loosen
ed its hold, caught the boy under
it and literally crushed the life out
of him. It is said there was hardly
a bone in his body that was not j
broken. A little girl standing near- !
by was the only eye-witness.
The accident saddened the entire j
community where the young fellow
was held in the highest esteem. He
was a student in the Micro school,
being a member of the ninth grade.
He always stood near the head of
his class. He was interested in |
church work, being a member of
Carter’s Chapel Baptist church
where he was active in the Sunday
school. He had the confidence of
his elders as well as those of his
own ago.
The funeral was held Wednes
day afternoon at Carter’s Chapel
Baptist church, after which inter
ment was made in the Woodruff
family burying ground. The serv- j
ice was conducted by Rev. Arthur j
Creech. A very large crowd was
present, the school turning out for I
the funeral. The entire ninth grade !
and the faculty attended in a body.
Members of his class acted as pall
bearers.
The bereaved family has the
sympathy of the entire communi
ty in this sorrow.
SPEAKS TO CIVICS CLASS
The teacher of the civic classes j
in the local school, Mr. Kenneth
Coates, has arranged for a series
of vocational talks before his .
classes during the next few weeks.;

day Rev. D. E. Earnhardt spoke I
to the classes on the ministry, its j
possibilities as a vocation and from J
the home mission standpoint. Mr.,

Much Interest In
Four Oaks Revival
Rev. William V. Stuart I s:
Preaching Stirring Sermons;
—Day Service Is Held Up I
Town
Four Oaks is being stirred as
t has not been before in years by
he preaching of Rev. William V.
Stuart, conference evangelist, who
s conducting a revival at the Meth
>dist church in Four Oaks.
This is the second week of the
revival and the crowds have con
tinued to grow at each service.
The minister began having his
lay service at the church at ten
o’clock in the morning, but the at
tendance not being what was de
sired, the place for holding the
momfng service was changed to
Mr. Adams’s store uptown and

WATCH SUSPICIOUS
SYMPTOMS IN SPRING
SANATORIUM, April 26.—
These lovely, warm spring1 days,
do you tire so easily that it takes
all of the pleasure out of the re
turning spring season? Are you
losing weight, not much, but just
a little under par? Bothered with
indigestion, so much so that you
don’t enjoy spring vegetables? Did
you have a cold last winter, or
early this spring, and has the
cough hung on? If you have any
or all of these symptoms you may
have tuberculosis.
Don’t dismiss that tired feeling,
that slight loss of weight, the in
digestion, the cough, too easily.
Early tuberculosis often begins
with either or all of these sym
ptoms. Delay in tuberculosis means
advanced disease and ultimate
death. For even with modern meth
ods for the “cure” of the disease,
advanced tuberculosis is not cur
able. Early tuberculosis is one of
the most easily cured of all the
major diseases mankind is heir to.
If you’re easily tired, losing
weight, have indigestion, a cough
that hangs on, don’t hesitate, go
to a good physician at once. When
you have gone to him insist upon
a thorough physicial examination,
including your chest. If the doctor
tells you that you have tubercu
losis obey whatever instructions
for the cure of your disease that
he gives you. In that way you will
cheat the tuberculosis death rate
of one more victim, and save your
own life.

Another Case
Smallpox Here
Second Case Develops at Cot
ton Mill This Week; Dr.
Makes Makes Statement 1
Not long: ago, a case of small
pox developed at the Ivanhoe Cot-i
ton M,ill, and Tuesday another J
ease developed. Milton Capps, an
employe of the Mill is the second
small pox patient. Mr. Honeycutt,
after the first case was diagnosed
urged the vaccination of the Mill
population, but now he is requir
ing the employes of the mill to be
vaccinated, and stronjfly urging
all others in that section to take
the precaution of being vaccinated,
in order that an epidemic of the
disease may be avoided, if possible
Dr. C. C. Massey, County Health
officer, who is in charge of the
situation, makes a statement in
regard to small pox vaccination,
what it is, who should receive it,
and the care of the “take,” that
is timely and which should be read
certainly by all who have not been
made immune to the disease.
,Dr. Miassey’s, .statement is as
follows:
'“Smallpox vaccination is an
established scientific fact, a safe,
simple procedure, and a sure pro
tection against smallpox which .
lasts for a very long tme.
“Young and old alike should re- <
ceive it at least once and there i
would be no more smallpox. Vac- ;
cination is one of the few out- ■
standing achievements of medical
science, and is recognized by all .
intelligent thinking people as the .
only sure and lasting protective 1
measure to be taken against small- i
pox. The fact that there has been !
more of this disease in the state
n recent months is due to gross ■
legligence on the part of both the ,
public and health officials, for in i
i community or state where no ]
serious outbreak has occurred for .
i number of years public opinion ;
)ocomes negligent and even indif- ;
’erent to the need for protection.
“A small portion of vaccine is •
placed on the clean skin of the 1
apper arm and left to dry. In about i
live days a small sore forms. This, j
s the way the vaccine gets int<wj
die system. To be of service for <
protection it must get into the i
body through the formation of ;
i sore which remains for a few <
lays. This is commonly known as '
i“take,” or a successful vaccina- ]
don. Sleeves should be loose dur- ;
ng the take, and shields should \
>e left off. Experience proves that \
hey aggravate rather than help, ]
ind most so called “bad arms”
ire due to irritation from shields
or other common interferences.
3ne application of tincture of
odine over the vaccinated area
ibout the sixth day is beneficial.
'Jo other treatment is reecomend
*d or advisable.
“Finally, it should be remem
>ered that the method used to day
s considerable better in all res
pects from the stand point of the
ndividual, that to be of benefit to
he person there must be a “take”
vith possibly some inconvenience
?or a day or two, and it should be
comforting to realize that one suc
cessful vaccination protects
(gainst smallpox many years and
)ften for a period of life.”
KENLY LADIES HEAR
NEGRO SPIRITUALS
KENLY, April 26.—In response
:o invitations from J. H. Skin
ner, principal of the colored school,
a group of ladies visited the school
an Friday afternoon and spent an
enjoyable hour listening to negro
spirituals sung by the students.
The visitors were impressed with
the ease, freedom, and natural
abandon with which the students
interpreted these songs. They ex
pressed their interest in this dis
tinctive contribution of the negro
race and urged the students to cul
tivate their talent along this line.
A short talk by Mrs. J. M. Wool
ard, Jr., on values in life was lis
tened to with interest. Among
other things Mrs. Woolard stress
ed the value of an education and
said that the successful man is he
who works, who keeps plodding on
while others sleep. Other visitors
were called upon and they respond
ed with a few remarks.
Dr. Kerr Speaks
On Public Health
Reveals Startling Facts In Ad
dress at Kiwanis Luncheon;
Sees Need Sanitary Medi
cal Officer
Decidedly the most impressive j
address that has been delivered be- ;
fore the Kiwawlans this year was ■
the public health address by Dr. i
A. H. Kerr of Wayne county and
Goldsboro Board of Health yester
day at the regular weekly lunch- |
con. Dr. Kerr spoke on the need
of a sanitary medical officer to
guard the health of the people of
Smithfieltf and Johnston county.
‘You have a great county/' said
the speaker, “but you are not do
ing nearly enough to protect your
people from the fly and mosquito
pests, and you are doing practical
ly nothing to see that your people
ire getting good fruits, good milk
md good meats.” Diphtheria, tu
berculosis and scarlet fever can
-ome from bottles that are im
broperly handled by dairymen.
»***«»« me ooiues are not properly
sterilized they act as carriers of
:hese diseases. Cows that are in
jected with tuberculosis germs are
xften found in herds that are sup
flying milk for the people to
Irink. The speaker told of an in
cident that has come under his ob
;ervation. A man, his wife and
hree daughters started in the
lairy business. They bought a car
oad of dairy cattle that were not
>roperly inspected and started
heir dairy. In a year one of the
laughters was ill of tuberculosis.
Vfter three years the mother died
i victim of this dread disease. The
hree daughters are in tuberculosis
lanitoriums and the aged father
tilled himself in a fit of despair. In
mother case Dr. Kerr stopped an
>ld man who was infected with
iyphillsi and tuberculosis from
tarting a dairy. “How many peo
>le who would have died if that
>ld man had gotten into the dairy
>usiness nobody knows,” said the
speaker. “I am telling you these
hings to arouse you to think about
his -whole question of public
lealth and to get your fine coun
y to awake to its responsibilities
n this matter.”
“Frui and meat are two other
hings that should be inspected for
he good of the consumer,” said
)r. Kerr. He then told of a girl
vho met her death from syphillis.
j’here was no trace of syphillis in
ler family and her character was
:ood. After careful investigation
t was found that she had been
requently to a fruit store nearby
ier school and purchased fruit.
?he proprietor was a foreigner
riio had syphillis and he had been
pitting on his apples and ‘shining’
hem to make them look good. His
nouth was full of syphillis sores
>nd the germs were rubbed all
ver the apples from the process
f ‘shining’ them. The result was
he death of the girl.
“Watch your pools of water for
riggletails which will become mos
uitoe«, and burn and get out of
he way all filth so that maggots
rill not form flies,” was the ad
ice of the speaker. “Be sure you
lean up the filth and get rid of
he pools of water around your
•wn place and then help your
leighbor get rid of his.”
The speaker made a fine im
iression on his audience.

DEATH OF R. A. BAILEY.
The de-ath of my dear father, A.
R. Bailey, occurred on Easter Sun
day morning, April 8. I hated to
give him up but God knew best
and took him away from us. His
will be done and not ours. Father
had been in feeble health for about
two years but did not give up until
about two weeks before he died.
He bore his suffering with pa
tience. Much of the time he was
unconscious but by his pitiful
groans I knew he was suffering.
None could tell how father was
suffering, for he could not tell us.
All that kind physicians and lov
ing friends could do seemed to be
done but nothing could stay the icy
hands of death. He seemed to pass
away very easily.
Father broke up housekeeping
about two years ago after a spell
of sickness. His health was bad
and he had no one to look after
him, so he made his home with me.
I cannot tell anyone how much I
miss him. His place is vacant in
my home; his voice can’t be, heard,
and I can’t see father by the fire
side or when I go to eat.
The funeral services were con
ducted by Rev. Henry Renfrow in j
our home, after which the deceas- j
ed was laid to rest in the family
graveyard at his old home place.
He leaves to mourn his loss three
sons and two daughters: Dele
ware, Jefferson and Spain Bailey,
Endy Narron and Savannah God
win, besides a host of grandchil
dren, neighbors and friends.
I wish to thank our many friends
and neighbors who were so will
ing to lend their helping hand dur
ing father’s sickness. I also thank
our friends for the beautiful flow
ers. I hope God will bless every
one that was so kind and good.
Written by a daughter,
SAVANNAH GODWIN.
