Brown was given to us this week for publication: There will be a Child Health Clinic at the Rest Room, Camden, on Tuesday, June 26th from 9:30 in the morning until 12:30 noon. Dr. Dotterer state specialist for infants and children, will be in charge. Any child from infancy to three years of age is welcome. Dr. Dotterer has held several clinics in this county in the past and parents .are urged to take, advantage of this chance to have* their young children examined without charge. The following is the Public Health Report for the month of May: Prenatal visits 6, Post natal 4, Babies 1 month to 1 year 14, Preschool children 12, School children 16, Registrars 6, Doctors 21, Tuberculosis 32, other communicable diseases 17, other nursing visits 38, Social service visits 32, Early diagnosis clinicB 1, Number examined 36, Number suspect cases 8, iSchools visited 8, Veterans' Bureau cases 3, Applications for admission to Clinton Training School for Feeble Minded 1, Articles of clothing distributed 38, Patients sent to hospital 3. In the early part of May an Early Diagnosis Clinic was held at the Camden High School.. This clinic was financed by the Annual Christmas seal Sale of last year. Over thirty High School pupils mostly those from the eleventh grade who were greatly underweight or who had been in contact with tuberculosis cases, were ex- J amined. Of this number eight were found to be suspect cases. This is the season of the year when babies and young children suffer most from stomach and intestinal disorders'.' It is of utmost importance: that the baby be kejit clean and quiet, and that, if it is taking artificial feedings, its milk, drinking water, etc., be kept in sterilized containers and the utmost care taken in preparing formulas. The care of a young.child certainly means strict observance of the lod saying "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." Scout. News The regular meeting was held Friday night at the scout house on Chesnut street, twenty-five scouts were present. We assembled in front of the building and repeated the Oath of Allegiance to the Flag and the scout oath, then marched into the hall. Bill Sears, of Columbia was a visitor at^ the meeting and instructed us in first aid and also told in an interesting manner of the camp at Lake Junaftfska, N. C. The scout master then told us of the plan to divide the troop in to two parts. The Beaver and The Eagle patrols, the former to be under Walter Rharfte assisted by Duncan Lang and the latter, to be under Ansel Bateman, assisted by Benton Bruce. The Panther patrol gave 41 Bible reading then told some jokes and held a tournament. ; GEORGE RHAME, -Scribe. 1 The South Carolina State Teachers association will meet in Columbia next year, Its executive committee has decided.

'By Order of Police Department, C. C. WHITARER, Chairman.; Club Institute To Meet at Winthrop The thirteenth annual session of the Club Institute of the South Carolina Federation of Women's Clubs will bo held at Winthrop College June 26 to 29, inclusive. Club Institutes are now a definite part of the plan of the National Federation of Women's Clubs. The South Carolina Federation blazed a trail in this particular line of work. In 1916 a short course for club women was offered by Winthrop College as a result of a recognized need by some of the leading club women of the state. The Club Institute of today is the out-growth of that first short course. As our club women know, each state formulates its own plans and frograms for putting on its own Club nstitute. ilCowever, the basic purpose of each is to serve organized womanhood through conferences, dis cussions, and training which shall load to better methods of club work. Our National Club Institute Chairman says, "Remember that Club Institutes are to help us to a better understanding of methods of running the machinery of our organization, not to provide material for work." It has been deenuKi advisable to reduce the time for the Institute to four days, and to pack those days with >pertient discussions and offerings. The United States government has assessed income taxes, interest and penalties totaling $8,498,035.78 against Henry M. Blatkmer, wealthy Denver oil operator, self-exiled in France. Blackmer was mixed up with Sinclair, Stewart et al., in the Continental Trading company deal* which has been in the limelight much the last few months. summer Co ds At Brat sneeze rub dat?inhtte vapors V1CKS ? , n^, Mil I I LAMOY'S FILLING STATIOIN I ! i I 1 elephone 349-W We Dejiver.
