YOUR HEALTH
TO PARENTS AND TEACHERS IN
TRANSYLVANIA COUNTY
Remembering: the ordeal we ex
perienced in many ways with the
world-wide epidemic of influenza last
fall and winter I would ask you to
exercise constant vigilence in or
der to avert as far as in us lies a re
turn to similar conditions. I do not
think it necessary to po into details
as to the symptoms of influenza; it
was so wide-spread and its manifes
tations so pronounced. I would sug
gest that all persons take spccial care
of themselves in every particular and
if any suspicions of influenza exist,
call a physician. I would call atten
tion also to the fact that I have quar
antined three homes in somewhat
widely separated part of the county
because of scarlet fever. So far as
I could ascertain there had been in
none of them any known exposure
to the disease. In view of the fact
that an infection from a light case
results quite frequently in a malig
nant case, and also that the quaran
tine period is so long, 49 days; I
would ask parents and teachers to be
on the alert and to report any sus
pected cases. For should it become
general it would almost certainly re
sult in closing a school in the neigh
borhood where it was prevalent for
a large part of, or it might be, the
whole of its term. In view of the
fact that we in common with every
section of the United States stopped
all concourses of people in churches,
schools and places of amusement it
behooves us to exercise vigilence to
avoid similar experiences this fall and
winter. For some reason, I cannot
see why, the public is not awake to
the great danger of whooping cough.
A study of mortality statistics will
show that its deat toll is very large.
For this season and always I would
enjoin a rigid lookout for this mat
ter.
Very sincerely yours,
W. J. WALLIS,
County Health Officer.

CO-OPERATION
Co-operation seems to be the fav
orable expression on the lips of ev
erybody these da^.^3. A man will
run out in the middle of the street
and shout “Let us co-operate” and
then go home and tell his wife that
he knows where there is some sugar
that can be bought in five pound
packages and send all the servants
and children out after a package
apiece.
Another man will argue with a non
believer in co-operation and then
charge his own customers five cents
for one measly doughnut.
A big huskey darkey will hold his
seat in a crowded car and let an
old white woman hang by the strap,
and then he will go out and deplore
the Jim Crow law, which is being
done in more ways than one these
days, right in our own little town of
Brevard.
Co-operation is a fine thin^r, but
what is the use in a mlui's shouting it
the face .i^ the he goes
home and picks out th& coolest spot
to read his paper and lets his wife
stick in a hot kitchen making pre
serves for the next winter, that is
not even co-operation at home, and
the home is the place to start all
these good moves.
Some people think that co-operation
is a division of spoils, but in these
days the spoils all go one way—at
least they go two ways, to the rich
and to the poor, and we com^non peo
ple in the middle have to bear all the
burden, that is being done right in
our own country. Let's co-operate.
Think these things over and let
there be more co-operation.
Much success to Brevard and Tran
sylvania county in the line of co-op
eration.

ROSMAN NEWS
We came near having a very ser
ious automobile accident Saturday
night about one mile from town on
the Old Toxaway road. M. P. Nix,
Wilk Reed and Jess Chapman were
returning from a candy party at a
late hour in the night and in making
a short turn in the road the car turn
ed over and all the boys were very
much hurt. Wilk Reed was badly
bruised and being unconscious for
some time it was feared that he was
very seriously hurt, but last report
he was able to be up and had gone
to his home at Quebec. The other
two were bruised about the head but
are able to be on the streets.
On Saturday Chief of Police J. Z.
Stroupe, Deputy Sheriff J. A. Gal
loway and E. Sims, accompanied by
Homer Loftis, made a raid in the
Rock Creek section eight miles sqijth
of Rosman, captured a copper still
of 70 gallon capacity, destroyed the
outfit and 800 galloons of beer.

eration from the shipping public can
prevent serious i interference with

Federal Managers have bi^en called
upon by the Railroad Administration
to utilize equipment to the fullest
possible extent, and particularly to
see that cars are set in motion promp
tly upon being loaded or unloaded.
Shippers are asked to lend a hand
both by reducing detention of cars
to a minimum and by careful and ]
heavy loading so that the greatest
possible service may be had from
each car. From a purely selfish Jaus-
iness standpoint, of course, it is to
the interest of the individual shipper
and receiver of freight to do his part
toward minimizing the effects of a
car shortage from which he will suf
