Telephone 154 LIVING No one can savor the flavor of liv ing: t Unless he’s had giving to do and for giving; No one can tell you or spell you the story Of life wi£h its stain and its pain and it’s glory ' Who’s never been beaten, defeated, and risen From the breaking, heartaching des pair of some prison. Beating knavery with bravery and ris ing to heights He’d never have known without strug- v gles and fights. *> No one can savor ihe flavor of liv- ' ing Unless he’s had giving to do and for giving, Unless he’s had fighting and righting old wrongs, Unless he’s had grieving and leaving the throngs * And living alone with no' comforting hand And none to comfort or to under stand. Grief is a good gift, and pain is a treasure; No one knows life who knows only its pleasure. —Mary Carolina Davies. « f MISS BOND ENTERTAINS Miss Annie Bond delightfull enter tained the G.

Georgia Governor Commutes Sentence of Mrs. Ida Hughes To Life Imprisonment. Atlanta, Ga., April 11.—Mrs. Ida Hughes, sentenced to be hanged on April 24 for the murder of her moth er-in-law, Mrs. M. C. Hughes, in De cember, 1923, escaped the gallows to day, as a result of the decision of Governor Clifford Walker in uphold ing the recommendation of the Geor gia prison commission that she be granted life imprisonment. In the clemency order of the govern or, which states that although from the records of the case “Mrs. Hughes is guilty of murder” and that the chief executive has “no sympathy with the mauldin sentiment which seeks to make a heroine of a woman guilty 6f a horrible crime,” the governor de clares that after a study, he has “reached the conclusion that there are mitigating circumstances in this case which justify clemency.” When attorneys for the condemned woman went to the jail to tell her the governor’s decision, Mrs. Hughes received the news without any visi ble signs of emotion. Before her at torneys could speak, Mrs. Hughes said: • “1^ can see by the expression on youf face that you bring good news.” After being assured that such was the case she said: “Well, I’ll go to the state farm and do the very best I can to be a model prisoner. And I’ll do all I can to help the other prisoners do the same. I’d rather live in the penitentiary than outside under such conditiohs as I did before I got into trouble.” The crime for which Mrs. Hughes was convicted occurred at her home in Egan Park,, near Atlanta. Her mother-in-law, with whom she had been angered for some time, entered her home accompanied by two baliffs with a possessor’s warrant for articles she alleged the defendant had stolen.

NASH CONTINUES TO SET RECORDS • A V HOTEL CLINTON Special March Sales Sweep Aside All Previous Records of Popular Automobile, Company’s Books Show. All previous sales and production records of the Nash Motors company, locally represented by J. K. Hatton, have again been swept aside, figures on the company’s books now showing that March was the biggest month in the history of Nash Motors. “The shattering of Nash sales rec ords began in the fall, shortly after the introduction of the new series of special arid advanced series of cars,” said E. H. McCarthy, general sales manager of the Nash Motors company. ‘^October outstripped all previous rec ords in our history, then along came February with a new sales and pro duction record and now March has taken the lead over February. Inci dentally, the March shipments from the factory were 49 per cent greater than the shipments of March, 1924. “The situation with respect to the demand for Nash cars is further em phasized by the fact that the entire automobile industry during March nad about ten per cent less business than during March, 1924. And added to this, even though last month was Nash Motors’ biggest production month, there were in our hands bona fide orders for about 2,000 cars that we were unable* to ship because we could not produce sufficient automo biles to fill the demand.” In anticipation of the heavy de mand for the Nash line of cars the work has begun at both the Kenosha and Milwaukee factories or! plant ex tensions, which, when completed, will provide for an increase in production capacity of 40 per cent. These ex tensions include new buildings and the installation of additional production machinery equipment and will be ready within a short time for opera tion.

GREEN Editor of "HEALTH” II ANNOUNCEMENT s^fadis=^i=sJi=dif^dr=ir=Jr= We will open at our new in store formerly occupied by CONSUMPTION is not hereditary, ^ but it Is now generally agreed among tuberculosis experts that, no matter when the disease develops, in fection generally takes place in child hood. This Infection, like all other germ Infections, can only happen if there is a break somewhere in the skin or the lining of the body cavities. The mem brane which lines our nose, mouth, throat, bronchial tubes and lung spaces is a continuation of the skin, and, like it, is not affected by germs, except ns they can find an opening somewhere to allow them to enter the substance of the body and begin to grow. Any break or tear in tills membrane Is Just like an open gate in a city wall. It is a gap through which the enemy cun enter. One of the earliest and most common signs of tuburcular infection in children is a swelling of the lymph glands of the neck. The lymph glands of the body, which lie Just under the skin, are the filters or drains which stop and hold any infectious mutter which may enter the body and so prevent it from reaching the deeper-seated vital or gans. They -are the second line of cte- fense, like the street barricades which the defenders of a city would throw up to stop the enemy, after the gates hqd broken down. Now It has long been known that In many, If not all cases of tubular glands In the neck, the teeth would be found to be decayed. Even If the decayed teeth are pulled. Infection may enter through N tfe holes left In the gums. If decay has gone far enough so as to k|ll the pulp In the tooth, the softening opens up tht canals in the roots of the teeth and root abscesses may result The tuberculosis germs may then pass from the root abscesses into the fine lymph vessels. The first lymph gland they come to catches and holds them. If they are few In number, they may be killed in the gland without doing any harm. But If they are many, they make the gland work so hard that the glands become swollen and tender and finally break down and form little ab scesses. Bad teeth or openings in tbe gums caused by bad teeth are Ideal breed ing places for the tuberculosis germs, as the warmth and moisture In the mouth gives them just the conditions they need for growth. Sound teeth and clean mouths art a protection against disease. Children especially should be taught to' keep their mouths clean. Bad teeth should be removed or filled at once, not only to save the other teeth but also to keep out any disease germs that may cause trouble in after life.
