For the last two or three weeks, notices about the tonsil and adenoid clinic to be held at the school building this week have been running in this paper, but hard ly anybody in Marshall realized until they saw it what would happen. Not many of us if any had any concep tion of the magnitude of the prep aration or the efficiency of the force until it was shown. Even the doc tors in Marshall were surprised, and all the patrons, so far as we have l"een able to learn', are being well pleasea at the treatment this force is giving. They began arriving Sunday j from the last county where they were operating and others arrived Monday, and when Dr. Wilson arriv ed Tuesday morning to begin the ac tual operations, the force consisted of ten, as follows: Dr. Wilson, of .Asheville, surgeon Dr. Lois Boyd Gaw (woman) Diag nostician. Miss Flora Rey Chief Clinic Nurse Miss Cora Beam, who has charge of the work in Madison County, Miss Geneva Sykes, Miss Bessie Marshall, Miss Ruth Wells, Miss Lu- cile Pegram, Miss Myrtle Thomas, Miss Katherine Livingston, and Mr. Dewey Sopponfield. By nine o'clock Monday morning, one could see that the upper story of the school building was rapidly be coming a well equipped hospital. The utensils' of the Domestic Science De partment had been placed aside ex cept such as could be used, such as running water, sink, tables, etc. The The library had been converted into a ward, as had also some of the reci tation rooms. Twenty-five cots were stretched and covered with freshly laundered linen, a chair placed at .the neaa of each cot, one room wtii Madison And Buncombe Singers To Assemble Choir lingers from Maditon, Buncombe and other counties in this section will participate in a joint program to be given at a singing convention to be held at the Madison Seminary Baptist church near Marshall, the first Sunday in August, beginning at 2 o'clock, it was announced Sun day.

Wi,W, Replace; jf JfrXfjll .AGENT'S COLUMN When the election failed to carry, Dr. Ditmore preferred to locate where there was a greater opportu nity for service and greater promise of a bright future. The hospital idea of treating patients has grown to the extent that not many up-to-date phy sicians will locate in communities where hospitals are not available. The time will doubtless come when every county will have its hospital in oraer to induce the most up-to-date physicians to locate there. Marshall will miss Dr. and Mrs. Ditmore and the little hospital and their many mends in Madison County wish them great success in their new location.

Only children under 12 years of age were taken at this clinic. Balls, dolls, etc. are provided for the children to play with until their turn comes. Each child is dressed in night clothes and given his or her bed. As his or her turn comes for the operation, as the child goes to the operating room, its bed is taken from ward of playing and laughing children to the ward of sick children. In other words, after an operaion, the child is not carried children are, otherwise their laugh back into the room where the playing ter and playing would be changed in to fear and crying and protesting, but each is led as a lamb to its slaughter, except that instead of be ing slaughtered, they are relieved of the terrible handicap of tonsil and adenoid troubles and the diseases which follow. The work is done in a systematic and orderly way, the par ents of the cildren remaining with the sick child over .night, leaving early with the child the next morn ing for home. While 'in their most perilous hours, the children are under the care' of these skilled and careful competent nurses, so that dangers follJJimg such an operation are care fully guarded and bad results reduc ed to a minimum. The women of the different churches in Marshall prepared and served sandwiches and lunches to the parents of the sick children as they sat by their chil dren, and the children were served ice cream, hence the objectionable features of the operation are as far as possible offset by pleasantries. The statement has been made that up wards of 50 of the children of the state are suffering more or less from these troubles, and the response this week from parents all over the coun ty has been much better than hereto fore. The Clinic can take care of only 25 cases a day and the 'clinic closes in four days, so that the limit of operations would be 100. Tues- west of Hot Springs, N. C, Helping in the convention will be Miss Daisy Magee, Raleigh, Chil dren's Division Superintendent of the No:th Carolina Sunday School Asso ciation. Also helping on the pro gram will be several of the best known Sunday School workers in the county. The convention is interde- nominatioal, and Workers from all Sunday Schools in the county are in vited to participate in the work. In charge of the arrangements for the convention are A. W. Whitehurst and Miss Stella Carver, President and Secretary of the County Sunday School Association. These officers are requesting the cooperation of all pastors, superintendents and other Sunday School leaders in the effort to make the convention a success. The officers have announced that again this year a pennant will be nre- sented to the Sunday School having in the convention the largest average attendance of representatives, six teen years of age and over, accord ing to the number of miles traveled. It is expected that there will be much friendly competition for the pennant among the Sunday Schools of the County.

He was confident that many justi ces are not within the law in their activities, although some of them are holding to the high honor which the post ussd to nearly always -convey to the public mind. "A magistrate who take a worthless check-or a bad ac count and issues a warrant and then quashes the case on payment of check and cost, is violating the law of the arars. any rgi'cte rras -isss his office as a collection agency for mer chants or others and who advertises his collection services, is guilty of malfeasance in office and ought to be prosecuted," Judge Sink declared. Asheville Citixen. Dr. Harry' B Ditmore has left Marshall and located at Marion, N. fC, For a year or more Dr. Ditmore - practiced medicine in Marshall and vicinity, and during that time he, to gether with Dr. Frank Roberts, op erated a small hospital .for the bene fit of .their patients. Our under standing is that Dr. Ditmore was quite successful with his patients and proved himself to be a good surgeon. He was much interested in the Coun ty hospital idea and was really in strumental in getting the 50-60 prop osition from the Duke Foundation.
