Moss, field representative of the American National Red Cross, spent two days in Camden and Kershaw county last week conferring with the local Red Cross Chapter as to the annual Red (Cross Roll Call, which begins on Armistice Day and ends Thanksgiving day each year, and in making plans for the organization of the Junior Red Cross in the schbols of {lie county. The demands now being made upon the Red Cross as well as all other charitable organizations, are greater than at any time since the World war. The fact that the Federal Government has asked the Red Cross to undertake the" distribution of eightyfive million bushels of wheat and five hundred thousand bales of cotton to the needy and distressed of the nation, has imposed upon the Red Cross one of the largest relief tasks in history. 'No part of the wheat or cotton may be used in defraying the administrative costs of distribution, all of which must be paid froip the treasury of the Red Cross. In order to adequately meet this responsibility which has been plhced upon it, the Red Cross must have increased revenues. Only increased membership dues can make this possible. Your help is needed to make the annual Rolf Call a success, thereby assuring continuation of this relief program during the coining year. Memberships will be solicited during the R611 Call period, but will you not help by handing your membership to the office of the Camden Chronicle?

Diphtheria Can * Be Prevented Recently there have been several cases of diphtheria reported in Kershaw county amonir both children and adults. Had parents known or had those who knew taken the precaution of having; their children protected against this preventable disease, these cases would never have occurred. A child enjoys a natural immunity obtained from the mother until about six months of age. From that time until it is about six years of age it itP very susceptible to diphtheria. After that age it again begins to acquire a natural immunity or protection through its own folood stream cells or anti-bodies. About 8*3 per cent of all cases of -diphtheria occur between the ages of two and ftvo years inclusive and it is tho child at this ago tlyit it is so very important to protect. This can bo done by tho administering of two or three doses ^ of Toxoid or toxin-antitoxin at a cost of.twenty-five cents per case. When a child is exposed to a known caso of diphtheria and is given1 a doso of anti-toxin it is protected for only throe or four weeks, therefore let not the parents be deceived in thinking that tho child is protected for a longer period such as it would bo > ^otherwise. . Since anyone at any and all ^times may .be diphtheria carriers and infect children with whom they come in contact there is little, hope of ever completely eradicating the disease unless every child is inoculated by the time it is one year of age. It is hoped thatrn&very parent will take heed to this suggestion and? help protect their children and destroy this - malady which takes its annual toll of little lives and causes such an unnecessary amount of suffering and anxiety, advises A. W. Humphries, M. D., director of the Kershaw County Health Jfypartment. Trinity Church Planning Rally ' Rev. J. W.
