Health Department Reports Highlands Maternity Clinic A new maternity clinic was: open ed in Highlands, Friday, Febru ary 7, in the Satula Club room, with Dr. Gilbert Beecher in charge. The public health nurses assisting at the clinic were Miss Alma Kee. district supervising nurse, from Waynesville, Mrs. Jos ephine D. Gaines, from Macon county, and Mrs. Doris Hick. from Swain county. The local healtb officer. Dr. E. N. Haller, was also kept busy at the clinic The necessary care and atten tion of expectant mothers will be made available at these clinics, which are to be held each month on the first Friday, at Z p. in. in the Satula Club room. Physical examinations, routine tests, monthly check-ups and con sultations with the doctor in charge will be provided at each clinic For the use of the Satula Club building in the Highlands com munity, for the fuel furnished by an interested citizen, and through the support of an active P. T. A. member, the health department is duly grateful. One of the major defects of the North Carolina poultry industry is the lack of care in grading and packaging products, especially eggs. Services are being held each week in the new Baptist church here, although the interior of the building has not yet been com pleted. The beautiful stone-veneered structure is the third in which the church has worshiped since it was organized about 50 years ago. This building was begun in July, 1940, under the leadership of Kcv. J. G. Benfield, who has been the pastor since June, 1938. There are nine Sunday School rooms around the main auditorium, six of which can be used as a part of the audit orium. Back of the pulpit platform are a Jwptistery and three rooms. There is also a large basement where a heating plant is to be in stalled and several additional Sun day school rooms equipped. I' pon coming to this charge Mr. Benfield found an inadequate church building, an unfinished pas torium, and a burdensome debt; The dvbts were soon liquidated, more real estate added to the church property, and a building launched. In all of this work the efforts of Mrs. Benfield have been as earnest and tireless as those of her husband. The church is being built on the pay-as-you-go plan, which accounts for the unfinished interior. Mem bers and friends of the church have put about $4,000 into the " present structure, and it is estimated that when finished tre entire , cost will be some seven or eight thousand dollars.
