No Subscription Received Under 0 Month* Thursday. January 13. 1948 I Croat Opportunity Martin County’s struggle for better health will be materially boosted the latter part of this and early next month when the State Health Department in cooperation with the County Health Department and other agencies sends equipment for a mass X-ray survey of all its people fifteen years old or Older. The service, the mosl extensive ever offer ed. is certain to prove a boon to the health of our people in that it will help ferret out the dread disease and place the victims in a position to combat it in the early stages of its development. While much has been accomplished in public health, the service now being offered brings the movement directly to the peo ple. It is a golden opportunity that no one should allow to slip by, and it is sincerely believed that every person in the county, fifteen years old or older, will take advan tage of the service. There are quite a few persons in this coun ty who are victims of tuberculosis in its early stages. The victims could be any one of us, and to find out their identify and place them m a position to help themselves a mass J>-ray survey is necessary. 7 The survey is being conducted without tt cost to the individual. Only a few seconds are required to make an X-ray. Every individual stands to pain much and lost' nothing. It is up to the people to get be hind the survey, have their X-ray made and see that all others g 't to the mobile units and have theirs made during the period be ginning January 27 end ending February 14. Simple faith and Xnl Farce Xceded With a tlollai in on? hand and a weapon nr threat in the other America can’t expect much from its Truman policy and its Mar shall plan. orenod with hum/A '<L»u ■ fc How men and adhering to the simple1 truths, Ameri cans can spread Democracy across foreign lands. It is fairly certain that we can’t buy it for others. And the United States, re gardless of its might and undisputed power, cannot force democracy on any people. And neither can Russia force other peoples to accept the isms. Power may gain an upper hand for awhile, but in a brief time the wishes of the people will rise to the top to challenge bribery and acts accomplished by force. There was a time when man struggled with economic and social problems, but now man is his own big problem. We seek to gain our way by force or bribery, forgetting the simple basic truths. We talk about our magnanimity, but in truth we are only boasting, looking for something to reward us tenfold. Tin* Harriers May Fall There are no inherent and insuperable barriers to the establishment of a new hu manity. There are blindness, laziness and selfishness, and these can retard and are re tarding its advent. The present need is for multitudes who, like the rebel in Patmos, see a new earth. An enlightened priest in the age of Alfred the Great, announcing the practicability of even the hinds, ,llains and serfs becoming so instructed that all of them could read Holy W'it and the ballads and chronicles of the time, would have been un frocked as possessed of the devil. Had some crank in feudal times taught tl at the com mon folk could be free to third, talk, vote and take part in government without so cial chaos and red ruin he would have risk ed the stake. Today all these things are ac cepted as commonplaces. Our dieam. too, will surely crime to pass. Posterity will only wonder how it could ever have been ques tioned, and why its obvious advent was so long delayed. I). W. Langridge in the Chris tian World.
