A IIIOAIril HOARDS AND THE TAXPAYER. PPROPRIATIONS for health purposes In many communities have in tho pnst been grnnted reluctantly, and In most Instances In Insufficient amounts for effective work. It has boon difficult to con vlnco tho taxpayer and tho public of ficial that there would bo an nde quato return for money expended. Health to them has seemed an Indi vidual matter and health boards havo had to beg for every dollar. An Im provement, howovcr, Is taking place, and tho amount per capita of health appropriations Is Increasing. A moro Intelligent understanding of tho ob jects of public hcnlth expenditures and of tho returns to bo had Is do voloplng. In somo Instances the tax payer Is now on tho othor sldo of tho propostlou. Ho demands of tho health board, having approved liberal appropriations, that It prevent opl domlcs which endanger tho health and lives of himself, his family and his friends. Spartanburg, S. C, has been for Bovoral years a center for tho study of pollagra by a scientific commission. This liiis no doubt pro moted tho Btudy of health matters In general In that community, with the result that tho local health sorvtco linB boon well supported, whllo tho peoplo have come to recognlzo the possibilities of disease prevention. With tho Idea In mind of tho seasonal rocurronco of certain Infectious dis eases, tho Spartanburg Herald says: "For tho amount of money the citizens of Spartanburg nro spending these- days for tho public health de partment they havo reason to expect sorvtco and results. . . . Just at this season of tho year and a llttlo later on, In February and March, most cities aro visited by . . . scattering cases of dlpthcrla and opl domlcs of measles nnd whooping cough. Measles and whooping cough usually spread until they havo ex hausted tho supply of youngsters who havo como on since tho last year's epidemic, whllo diphtheria, becauso of Its moro violent character, Is usu ally held In chuck. Hut tho question In our mind Is whothor theso things havo to bo. In modern days Is tlioro no way to prevent so much suffering and sickness on tho part of tho llttlo children of a city? Tho Spartanburg lionlth authorities could In no way cprry their sorvlcos nearor tho homes or tho peoplo tlinn by making a study of this suostfbn nnd taking ovory precaution posslblo to hold theso things In check this year." It goes without saying that tho health board of Spartanburg will do Its utmost, but this chnngo of attl tudo of tho taxpayer toward dlseaso prevention Is Interesting and hopo ful, says tho Journal of tho Amorlcan Medical Association. It also empha sizes tho obligation ,on tho part of health departments to mako good. Impresses upon peoplo that you noil a better article for tho satno Jiionoy, or as good an artlclo for less money, than your competitor. All legitimate advertising Is good, but somo Is bet tor than tho other. You should use tho kind that talks right to tho peo plo, sinks In and Impresses them. A quarter pago advertisement well writ ton Is far ahead of n doublo pago which really says nothing. Hy this wo do not mean that you muBt crowd an advertisement full of reading mat ter. That Is not always Impressive. What wo wish to Impress on your mind Is that when you wish to say something, say It In such a way that you drlvo It right In. Tho fower words used and tho moro slmplo tho language, tho better. Somo advertis ing goes over tho heads of tho average nowspapor reader. Lower your sights. Shoot straight, so that all can under stand, You nro paying snlosmen, paying rent, taxes, light, heat, drawing a. sal ary yoursolf and havo many other Incidental expenses and probably your advertising expense Is tho least of all. That Is not saving money. Advertising will keep your clerks busy, will sell enough merchandise for you that you can afford to pay I tho rent nnd will help you draw a bettor salary. It Is tho ono powerful I magnet that draws tho peoplo to your store. Everybody In tho united States knows of Coca Cola and Spear mint gum. They havo probably all tried them both. Everybody In your community should know you so well that they wlH try dealing with you once. Then It Is up to you to uso tho customer on tho squnro and re tain tho bnslncs3. Some Valentine Mr. Robert Stnrkoy contributes a few valontlnes. They nro nbovo tho average, and ovlnco tho possession of n rofhied spirit as well as an ability for dealing with such mat tors. Ed.

ASSISTANT GOVERNOR. TIlo Governor of Colorado has taken n long stop In tho right direction. Ho huh rucogulzod tho right of tho women to special at tention In tho affairs of thu State. In order to glvo tho women of Colo rado this attention, which they do serve, Governor Curlson has appoint ed hla wlfo to act ns "Assistant Gov ernor." Slio wll bervo during tho on tlro. administration and will put In a8 many hours u day at this work as does tho Governor at his regular orriclul duties. Her cnief duties will bo to look af ter legislation relating especially to women aud chlldron. In addition to this she will meet nnd confor with all women Intorosted In legislation; she will hold conferences and perform tho samo duties in her particular upbore as will tho Govurnor In his own. Govornor Carlson says that ho will abide by tho decisions and net on tho recommendations of his As sistant Governor, Our women deserve a largor place and a greater meuBiiro of attention in tho conduct of our public llfo than they havo boon receiving In tho past. For all too many yoars men havo acted as though they considered themselves to bo tho lords of creation and tho women of tho world to bo nothing moro than so many darnels and physical possessions. As they uro our partners In our dully lives to they should be our partners In our official and public lives. And suro ly no ono Is in a bettor position or moro nblo to understand them and their needs and to deal with them ns they should bo dealt with than is a highly educated woman, oxporlonc ed In public ns well ns In prlvnto things.

It goes out and tolls tho peoplo about your store, about the class of tnerchnndlso you carry, aud Thoro aro many things that mny intorforo with man's nppetlto, but lovo Isn't ono of thorn. Lady dentists aro scarco but thoro aro any numbor of females of tho species who can olonguto a man's leg. Our idea of tho human pest Is tho Individual who telephones tho editor to know the day and hour that Adam died. Rut thoro Is no law to provont n woman from stopping In front of a milliner's show window nnd wishing sho had a bank account of her own. Good henlth, llko a clear con science, Is most appreciated by thoso who do not havo It. Every roso has Its thorn, but It might bo worso. Supposo roses grow only on tho cactus! Many a man has bocomo lntoxlcntod with success not thinking of tho morning nftor, Most of us nro blinded to our own faults by tho shock wo feol at the faults of others. Tho mnn who waits for somothlng to turn up usually finds hlmsolf turned down in tho long run. Gossip Is what tho others say about you; what you sny about othors is nows. Don't worry over a mistako that can bo corrected. Get busy and cor rect It. If you want a better Job than you havo do your best on tho ono you have. (Continued from Pago Two.)
