Daring Few Waaka B.47S FeopU Have Beast Examined. , Daring tbe f mr weeks of book worm campaign. 2.470 people have beea examined. Only two more weeks renxaia for thoor who wish attention in this matter. Interest in the work is still active and should continue io be -so till tbe end. " Eaeh person should see to it that h visit tbe nearest dispensary point during the next two weeks and learn definitely about his own and bi fam ily's condition. In spite of the seem ing .loss of time which such a visit incurs, yettone may be sure that he baa dona his best day's work of tbe year when he has looked into the im portant question of the health of his family and bas learned by hearing of sanitation how to keep bis family free from those diseases which can be prevented. For those sections of the county which have not been located conven iently near a dispenssry point, the manager of the campaign has decid ed to send through those portions of the county, during this week or next, a person who will make a house to house canvas, leaving instructions, on tbe first dsy and collecting them on tbe second day. By so doing every one in the county will then have an easy opportunity to get this work done. These specimens will be brought io tbe dispensary and exam bed. Whatever medicine is needed will be left in Concord with Dr. King, tbe county superintendent of health, and any one may get the medicine from him at any time for the asking. The medicine will be prepared by the director of the campaign before he leaves the county and will be left for free distribution. Those sections of the county which are near dispensary points will have two more opportunities in the two weeks remaining of the campaign to have examinations made. The dispensary points to be visit ed during this week are Kannapolia. Mount Pleasant, Poplar Tent school house, Flowe's Store and Concord. The examinations and infections for the past week follow: Examined. Infected. ir.nnonnlia 140 15 Mt. Pleasant . . 124 10 3 Poplar Tent Z . Flowea Store Concord . - - Total . - - 89 00 205 648 6 . I ST-1 58 Everything connected with the work is free as usual. It will be of interest to many in the county to know that the director of the campaign saw last week at one dispensary one of the severest cases of the disease that has ever come to his notice.. This clearly shows that the hookworms have been getting a foothold in the county for some years and should stimulate everyone to in creased activity in regard to its erad ication.
