PAGE EIGHT Dr. Hunter Heard At Cleveland Meet Dr. W. B. Hunter. Harnett Countv Health .Officer, described the work of his diabetic clinic to the Food. Nu trition and Health Officers section of the American Public Health Society at Cleveland Friday afternoon. The clinic started, Dr Hunter explained, when it was found that some diabetices patients ap pearing at the County Health De partment. were not receiving ad equate care. A few of these people were help ed. with such gratifying results, that the number increased and soon he found that he was conducting a diabetic clinic. Dr. Hunter contends that a clinic for diabetes conducted by the Health Department is justified for the same reasons that justify clinics for maternity, infancy, crip pled children and cancer. Dr. Hunter described how the clinic was given a boost by a mass survey for diabetes conducted a long with an x-ray survey for diseases of the chest in which 6.000 were examined, 500 re-examined, and 48 cases of diabetes were found. The survey was made possible, he said, by help given by Dr. L. C. Wi , v<'rson and many others of the Public Health Service and by the st’pnort cf the Harnett County Medical Society. The clinitron. to make the tests, mounted on a trail er, was loaned by the Public Health Service. Doctors became interested in the venture through a -dinner attended by 125 physicians, featur ing Dr. Howard Root as the main speaker. Dr. Root has visited Dr. Hunter’s clinic in Harnett. This not only aroused interest among doctors, but made the public dia betes conscious. 561 ADMITTED I During the six years the clinic - - I tgmr jr vagaiggi START YOf R S A VINO® AT COMMERCIAL BA&K Dunn.

DUNN, N. C. has been in operation. Dr Hunter told the group. 561 patients have been admitted, well over one per cent. of the population of Harnett. These cases included diabetes, ob esity and nondiabetic ailments. Os the last hundred consecutive cases. 82 were referred to the clinic by doctors. Os the others, some were referred by other clinics and some were referred by their own physi cians. •This." Dr. Hunter declared, "is an indication of the support given this clinic by the local medical profession. Obviously." he declared, "this is a doctor's clinic. Without those referred to us by them we would not have enough cases to keep going." Dr. Hunter tcld the group that about two percent of the population in this country has diabetes, one percent known cases and the other one percent not yet diagnosed. The disease, he said, is universal in distribution, with some racial variations, it is more frequent in women than in men and much more frequent in fat. people than in thin people. For this reason, he points out. the control of obesity will us ually control diabetes. ,—. . Since the disease is. liereditatry. he pointed out. relatives of diabe tics,, persons overweight and <peo «ple over fortv should be particularly urged to take part in , mass sur veys. "It has been said." Dr. Hunter declared, "that a diabetic is as old as his age. plus the age of his diabetes." They are more prone to vascular and kidney disorders than other people. The management of diabetes, he told the group, is strictly preventive medicine as there is no cure for this condition. Doctors do not treat diabetes, they teach the patient how to manage his own indicidual case. The object of the treatment is to prevent complications and to keep the patient as near normal as possible. Treatment of the condition is in a large measure a matter of diet, he told the group. The diabetic eats Varied Cases iContinued From Paee One! suspended 12 months on payment of .SSO and costs, plus an additional $22.50 for tl.e damage done to Thomas' car. He also recommend ed revocation for a year of Arm strong's license. ANGERED AT SERVICE Luther Rodney Johnson. 26-year old Dunn man. became angered when an attendant at H. P John son's Gil Company did not wait on him quickly enough. According to the attendant. Paul V. Barefoot. 21. he pulled off his shirt, started . "cussing" and declared that he was going to beat Barefoot up. Barefoot, whom Johnson had charged with ah affray, told the court that lie n-ed a flashlight to subdue the truculent customer and that and other attendants finally managed to stop the fray. Mr, Johnson identified the de fendant us his nephew, and told file court that lie had been forced to call the office: s on another occasion due to trouble with young John son. "I’d like to have him put on a peace bond to keep away." he declared. Judge Strickland ordered the warrant, amended to charge as sault instead of affray and gave Johnson 30 days, suspended 12 months on payment of $lO and costs. Young Barefoot was found hot guilty. Issuance of a capias for Jose’ih Kimson Stanley. 47. cf Benson, was withheld pending receipt of a cer tificate or phone call from his nhvs'ciaii. He had presented one to Solicitor J. Shephard Bryan, but Tilts"did rot cover the proper date, and he returned to Benson for the proper pa tier. DRUNKEN DRIVER FINED Raymond McLamb was found guilty of drunken driving and given 90 days, suspended 12 months on payment of SIOJ and costs with the same food as anyone else but the diet is regulated by trial and error and additions and subtrac tions made according to the trend of the patient's weight. NUTRITION IS VITAL Tile clinic. Dr. Hunter explains, might well be called a nutrition clinic since it was found that obe sity and diabetes went hand in hand. In a clinic for obesity, many of the patients will be diabetics, while in a diabetic clinic many of the patients will be obese. Nutri tion forms the main treatment in j both cases. Treatment starts on the first vis’t Dr. Hunter explained, and if insulin is needed the patient is taught how to take it and gives the first do«e to himself while in the office. In addition, the program includ es individual and group instruct ion, often with the use of film strips. Individual instruction is given each patient regarding his own diet and the insulin dosage. With all of the regular person nel taking an interest in the di sease, the clinic for diabetes has taken a routine place along with the other chuics. Dr. Hunter said, nd i> now an integral part of the U”"’ - ft D"blic health program. "Tt ‘s beii«ved" Dr. Hunter con cluded. "that in the field of diab etes and obesity, there is a field where for a comparatively small expenditure of money, preventive medicine can do much good for many people.” The clinic established in tlnis county by Dr. Hunter, was the first of its kind in the nation, and he has been asked to explain its work on numerous occasions so that it might be used as a model for sim Rallrb F!RST FOR FiNE SHOES • fUlfllSS Family 1 i—--c—<—— ' n WEYENBERG NATURAL BRIDGE Shoes For Men Shoes For Ladies FORTUNET Ladies Play Shoes ■■■ WEATHERBIRD RED RIDING HOOD Shoes For Children Shoes For Children THE DAILY KECOBD.
