The band had Its inception only a few months ago aud 1 think you will agree with me that its progress has been most gratifying. I have heard the the famous Arthur Pryor band play music that swayed big audiences. I have heard the famous John Phillip Sousa band, the Gllmore band and many others. These bands had to have a beginning just the same as our own schools band. And our band will progress in excellence. "Last sunwper you probably recall that fine high school band from Lancaster that came down to play for the entertainment of a big group of Florida airmen at the Woodward airport. Later the same band marched in our cotton festival parade. Camden wanted a band like that and today Camden has a band. A good band is a great asset to a community. 'IMr, Newell Wlmberly, the director of this band, Is to be congratulated on the wonderful progress he has made with the young musicians.

MI88 THOMAS ATTEWD8 HEALTH MEETING AT MYRTLE BEACH Kershaw county's tuberculosis nurse, Miss Marie Thomas, attended the meeting of the South Carolina public health asaoclatlon at Myrtle Beach Wednesday of last week to hear Doctor P. P. MoKaln, superintendent of the North Carolina Sanatorium, talk on "Present Concepts In Tuberculosis Infection and Dlaaase," Dr. McKaln said among other things, "Every positive reactor to the tuberculin test, especially persons such as school teachers and drivers of school buses, who come iu close contact with large numbers of children dally, should be examined for tuberculosis." He related a story about a college student having a positive tuberculin test. Three successive years, during her.collogo career, this young woman turned down an opportunity for X-ray examination in spite of the fact she had a slight chronic cough, which she attributed to cigarette smoking. Soon after graduation, she accepted a position In a school. The following year It was found that a large number of children in this teacher's class had a positive tuberculin test. Since In that comi&unlty, there was a ruling that all teachers as Veil as students having a positive tuberculin test must have a chest examination, the teacher at last decided to be X-rayed. It developed that she had an advanced J case of tuberculosis and further Investigation revealed that several members of this teacher's family also had tuibrculosls. Colonel W. H. Moncrlef, superintendent of the South Carolina Sanatorium. who was preeent for the tuberculosis secretaries' luncheon, assured tuberohlosls workers that plans are being made for better service to counties seeking X-ray examination for tholr citizens and students. As to the possibilities for admitting cases of tuberculosis to the sanatorium at State Park, Colonel Moncrlef said, "Since the first of the year we have been able to provide bedB promptly for white patients seeking admission to State Park. However, there Is a watlng list of two hundred negroes asking for hospital care." "South Carolna," continued ~ Colonel Moncrlef,? "needs more beds In tuberculosis hospitals for negro patients in order to prbperly deal with the situation." I During the last -fiscal year more than five hundred people were admitted to the South Carolina Sanatorium 1 at State Park. "About two hundred and seventy-five of these," said Colonel Moncrlef, "had tuberculosis In the far advanced stage; we must arrange to be able to admit them In the ear^ Her stages if we expect many cures." Kershaw county is entirely dependent on the sanltorium at State Park for care of tuberculosis cases. Since January 1, Kershaw county has been able to get nine patients admitted to. State Park. There are seven on the waiting list. Six of these ate negroes. ?-? It is with the fctfoceeds 0f the 1989 Christmas Seal sale, which netted the county about $1,200 after 20 per cent was paid to the tftate And national tuberculosis associations, that the local tuberculosis association Is carrying ou a program to control and prevent tuberculosis.."
