Be Quick To Treat
Bronchitis j
Chronic bronchitis mav develop if
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron-
chitis is mot treated andyou cannot af-
ford to take a chance with any medicine
less potent than Creomulsion which
goes right to the seat of the trouble to
help loosen and expel germ laden
phlegm and aid nature to soothe and
heal raw, tender, inflamed bronchial
mucous membranes. * ” -
Creomulsion blends beechwood creo-
sote by special process with other time,
tested medicines for coughs. It contains
no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines you
have tried, tell your druggist to sell you
a'bottle of Creomulsion with the under-
standing you must like the way it .quick-
lyiallays the cough, permitting rest and
eleejp, or you are to have your money
back. (Adv.)

B. K. COBH,
1 am, very sorry that some of the
high school faculty in whole did not
show up. i presume that some con
flict was the cause of the absence,
but our program was made last Sep-
tember and all other programs should
have been arranged accordingly. Al-
most every rural, teamher was pres-
ent! and I.am proud of that fact.
Buy Defense-Stamps.-
i huve not. received very much 'in-
formation on Che sales of Defense
Stamps to the school pupils through
the teachers. I have one report on
the little Deutschburg school which
pas about 27 or 28 students enrolled.
Kvery child has bought "Defense
Stamps and started a book of them.
This is ’the first school reported 1W*»
in buying Defense Stamps and they
bought these stamps before we got in-
to the war. That speaks in the strong
eat language of their patriotism.
1 have just received a copy of a tele,
grain that has been sent out by tfie
Seereary of the Treasury of the
I nited States, it speaks”'for-' itself
and is as follows: ‘ •

The .declaration of war. places iV
new and increased responsibility on
defense savings committees! You
should at once’ advise all local com-
-mittees to redouble their activities
and conduct a sales" campaign which
by its response will demonstrate to
our enemies that . America, to a man,
is behind our greatest national test.

Issues Warning.
The Christmas shopping sjason is
at hand and food establishments of
all kinds'will be serving more than
their normal number of persons^
Anticipating tills, the (Julf - Health
Department- wilt make a complete him
vey of alt establishments in the'
urea and will be on the alert to de-
duct any violations of the State and
Federal (iovernmeut sanitary codes
governing the operation of any mid
jill food, establishments.
For tlie past sixmonths iieriisl the
(iulf Health Department has carried
,ii a program of education and co-
operation rather than a program of
enforcement. ,,
Very recent evujits have forced ,
National Defense into tM- foreground
which should remind us that one of
the greatest patriotic duties is to
protect-iiniL.tuipro'*>ur„ ovvn health ;
and the health of those around us,
and, with whom we come, contact.
The spread "t disease tlirough fon.d
handling can be greatly curtained
If a few of the essential requirements
for proper food sanitation are ob-
served, such as:
Thorough sterilization of all
dishes, glasses, etc.
Adequate handwashing facilities
and the proper use of same, c
Protection of food against eon ,
tamination from Hies, insects rodents,
etc.
Heitltlf examinations for all food],
handlers. - *
Keeping all garbage covered
disposed bf daily.

Dr, (IiH>. U. Howard, director of [ •
the ' Gulfe Iietrtth Department, at a |

tinue our program of education and
cooperation, but NOW violations of

about the size of his vision. Wjltte the
