The Most Successful CHnlc; Held in
The State. " M :
The Chatham county clinic for
adenoids and bad tonsiIs,which
was held last week at SilerCitss
was the greatest one that has ev
er been held in this state . '-
Dr. J. B. Wright said that not
only was cur clinic the greatest
because more children were
treated, but because of the; greatr
est amount jf interest and co
operation had' been given the
work. ;-'
During four days 110 were op
erated on for bad tonsils and acU
enoids and every single opera
tion Was successful More than
75 children that made applica
tion had to be refused, because
four days was the maximum
amount amount of time c. that
could be given to Chatham fcoun
ty this year.
W. R. Thompson, county sup
erintendent of public instruction,
has already teen urged by nany
to ask the State to give us an
other clinic next year, and he
has promised to use his influence
to that effect.
The Record believes that" this
is the greatest service that has
ever been rendered to the suf
fering children of Chatham coun
ty, therefore too much praise
cannot be given to Dr Wright
operating surgeon, and Miss
Ramie E. Williams, directing
nurse and Prof. Thomnson. ; .
Old time music, fiddlers, etc ,
will be an added attraction to
the Deestrict Skuie, a play to be
given soon. 3

ANDE.
Dastardly Crime
Rev. Ennis Pearson, the be
loved pastor of Shiloh church, in
Taylor's township near the Nash
county line, has for a long time
preached to his people and talk
ed to them about the evil of illi
cit distilling and the bad results
of moonshine liquor. Last week
while near his home he was shot
in the back and died instantly.
It is thought that a distiller in
the neighborhood did it.
The earnest and frequent ap
peals made by this good man to
his" people against liquor making
will live after him.. His voice
will have closer appeal now than
before his untimely death, and
the biockader has accomplished
verv little by removing him from
the association with christian
people and a loving family.
