WIPES OUT ANOTHER CHILD.
DISEASE
«. fSTONE VIEW CO . NEW YORK
Dr. S. Marbais, of the Pasteur In
stitute, Paris, France, who in a re
cent report before the Academy of
Medicine of Paris, demonstrated his
successful treatment for puerperal
fever, a disease which has long been
working havoc among children. Dr.
Marbais claims that a systematic in
jection of arsenobenzol into the tiny
patients veins every two or three days
will reduce and wipe out the disease
in every instance. The medicine can
be used either pure or iodinozed and
is an important step in the advance
ment ot child health.
HAST WHITE CHILD 0. S.
MANTEO, N. C., Jan. 8.-—A move,
ment has been started by a group of
citizens to permanently mark histori
cal spots, and one of the places to be
designated by a monument, if the
plans materialize, is the birthplace ol
Virginia Dare, the first white child
born on American soil. The spot is on
Roanoke island, often referred to as
“the cradle of the English race in Am
erica.’ ’ There is some doubt as to the
exact spot where Virginia Dare was
born, but it is believed to be near Ft.
Raleigh, about thre emiles north or
Manteo.
Mounds of earth forming the sides
of a pentagon at each angle of which
is a stone post protruding about a
foot from the ground, show the loca
tion of the old fort In the center of
the fort there is now an unpretentious
| stone marker on which are inscribed
\ some of the historical records of the
place. Unscrupulous relic collectors
have marred the present stone mark
but its inscription still can be read.
The county of which Roanoke Isl
and is a part is named Dare, in hon
of the first English child born in Am
erica, and the seat of the county is
named Manteo in honor of the Indian
chief who was the first person to be
baptized in the new land. Manteo en
joys the distinction of being the only
county seat in the United States with
the single exeption of Key West, Fla.,
located on an island.
Today the island is sparsely settled
the inhabitants making a living fish
ing eked out by a little farming. It is
said there is but one commercial far
mer on the whole island which is 12
miles long by three wide.
The North Carolina state depart
ment of education and the state histo
rical commission, in order to present
to the people the history of Roanoke
Island in pictorial form in 1921 had
the settlement on the island enacted
and photographed in 6,000 feet of film.
EINSTEIN GREATEST THINKER
OF THE DAY, SAYS DANE
PARIS Jan. 8.—George Brandes, a
Danish critic and essayist, who is vis
iting Paris, is rather hard on Ameri
can taste, still critical of Bergsonian
phliosophy and regards Freud as apos
tle of “obscene inhuman imagination.”
Though in his 84th year Brandes is
still very active.
Asked whom he considered the
greatest thinker of the day he replied
“Einstein beyond contradiction; he is
the Newton of this age. All his con
clusions are or will be established.”
r As to Freud he threw up his hands
in a gesture of horror and exclaimed:
“What have such obscene, inhuman
imaginations have to do with us?
Leave them to America, where they
are said to be very successful, de
lighting the bluestockings to whom
that country is the chosen land.”
Mrs. Ed Crawford and son Bennie,
will leave on the steamship Alaska on
a visit to the states, where she goes
to consult a specialist as to her state
of health. ^ ,
