Hookworm Treated in N. C. The rapidity with which a knowlegeof the cause, harm, cure and prevention of hookworm dis ease has spread among our peo ple stands without a parallel in the history of preventable diseas es.' Only a year or two ago there was found quite cammonly skep ticism concerning the existepee of such a disease; but practically all the doubters have now ha^ opportunities for seeing the worms, the suiTerers, their re coveries after treatment, and are now actively lending their sup port to the eradification of th6 disease. The quarterly report of Dr. Jno. A, Ferrell, the State IHrector of the Hookworm Campaign for the \hree months ending March 31, shows that up to date the phys icians of the State have reported treating 18,000 cases of hook worm disease, and that more than 500 of the active physicians of the State are treating the disease. Moreover, it shows that the La boratory of Hygiene has examin ed since the worl^ began 17,000 specimens of feces for the eggs of the hookworm which indicate the infection. To prevent the further spread of hookworm disease, ty|)hoid fe ver, and other diseases sirnilarly spread a waive for better i^anita- ry conditions is rapidly spread ing. “Clean-up Week’, and the compulsory use of sanitary toi lets are measures being inaiigii- rated in many towns arid village. Quite a number of county and city boards of education ha\ e ordered the installation of sanitjiry toilets at the schools. During the past twelve months there have been distributed ap proximately 200,000 pieces of stock literature on the subject which include a leaflet on hook- worm disease, an illustrated pamphlet of hookworm disease, and an illustrated pamphlet on plans and specifications for sani> tary toilets. These are sent on request to the Hookworm Comis sion, North Carolina Board of Health, Raleigh, N. C. The campaign in a broad sense, is one for better sanitary condi tions in the South, an aggressive warfare not against one, but against many diseases. “The success of the campaign,'’says Wm. H. Glasf on, in the A^ril South Atlantic Quarterly’ “must lesson the heavey burden of sick ness, bring new vigor ^*eat numbers of i^ple» and accomp lish the saving of Jthoutsands of lives.” Quite a number of people at tended the funeral of David Stevens last Sunday at Creek.

A. spent an hour in discussing the question^How should a student spend his Sabbath? It was a very profitable discussiort. Re^iar services were held 3uhday at the M. E. Church, by Rev. S'Barber. The two Junior debates sched- aled for this week are expected CO draw large crowds,—one 6c- curs on Friday night the 28th and the other on Saturday night the 29th.

On Monday Jamestown Nvas defeated on the home founds after a warm battle of balls, and on Saturday, last, the 22nd the team went over to Mebane accompanied by lifty or more students to meet Bingham School in the second gama with them. Bingham having lost the first game with Whitsett 5 to 3 and tried io strengthen her team by adding oh second and third bases Pearson an d Brock well from the Elon College team, but the additions could not sa've the day for her. Bingham' scored one run in the first inning, Whit sett scored one also in the first and continued to score in the fifth, sixth, seventh and dghth until seven runs stood, Whit sett’ s score. In the ninth ilining when Bingh im seemed t > have died with only one run to her credit the umpire made a close decision in favor of Bingham which allowed them two more rounds, closing the battle Whit sett seven; Bingham three. Thi victory was enjoyed by ail the more because of the fact that the Bingamites even with theiJr two helpers for occasion added to their team could never turn the tide their way. \ The second base ball te^ The, Tar Heels” expect to have a game with Burlington High School this week. , Several from here speak of at tending the State Sunday School Convention at High Point ttiis week and it is hoped ^ we may ha vie more done soon.
