RED CRO88 ITEMS
Sadie Kennedy von Treeckow
A apodal edition of the American
Red Croatt Nowa Service brings to the
entire United States this plea for
young doctora to aerve Britain overseas
and it la gratifylug to know that
Inquiries swamped tho lied Cross
headquarters tho drat duy." Rvory
assistance to Britain outalde of war."
Kvory paper has been requested to
print the patriotic call.
Doctors for Britain
The British Red Cross han asked the
Aid erica n Red Cross for 1,000 young
doctors. Ho pressing la Britain's need
for more medical men, BUpport of thla
undertaking has been freely glvou by
President Roosevelt and Government
officials directly connected with our
own medical defense programs. Prom
Washington has gotto out the request
for Selective Service Boards to give
special consideration to volunteer doctom
jiubject to military duty with our
own troops.
Our doctors who uro willing to
serve Britain In this'way, and who
meet (he rigorous requirements, will
bo eligible either for duty with the
Royal Army Medical Corps or tho
civilian units of-the Kmergonpy Medical
Service. As officers of the
RAMC, they may choose where they
will serve, whether it be Glbrallor,
Cairo or Bnwua. Tbelr task will be to
work side by side with British doctors
in tho treatment of military casualties.
Those who elect to servo as civilians
Will be fTsblgned duty with "KM3 lit
Hospitals and first aid stations in
bomb-wracked areas on the homo
front.
Great Britain's medical profession
is lighting dcith and injury against
Insuperable odds. On tho homo front
in Kngland ami Scotland doctors arc
working days without rest. Bombing
of population centers has heightened
their task, limiting the number free to
serve at the front.
On the military front?-from Gibraltar
to the Middle Kast?the fast movement
of troops has created acute problems
for Britain's Royal Army Medical
Corps. In former wars medical
officers attached to troops were a bio
to handle large numbers of casualties
in base hospitals. Today tho British
doctor at the front travels virtually
on wheels, picking away Jo a new
theater of war. With the limited
facilities of mobile units, more doctors
are needed than in previous wars.
Aside from tho humano aspects of I
sending doctors to Britain, this contingent
of American doctors will return
to America with invaluable ex- (
perlence In the modloal techniques of
modern warfare. Their knowledge
and skills may bo noeded some day
in tho defense of our own shores.

MRS. POMEROY'S GARDENS A
TREAT TO FLOWER LOVERS
The April meeting of the Camden
garden club was held at tho home of
Mrs. Robert W. Pomeroy, Monday afternoon.
April 14.
The business session was given over
largely to discussion of the regional
meeting of the Sandhills district of
garden clubs which was held tho folI
lowing Wednesday at the Court Inn.
The program for the afternoon consisted
of a series of moving- pictures
shown by Dr. Robert W. Glbbes, of
Columbia. Among those pictures
were those of Kdlsto Garden, owned
by tho city of Orangeburg; Swan Lake
of Sumter, and his own lovely fall
garden showing many varieties of
chrysanthemums of gorgeous colors.
The last series of pictures shown were
taken during the recent visit of Dr.
I Gibbcs to Guatemala, and gave much
I of the topography of tho country as
well as the life and customs of its
natives.
During tho social hour the guests
were Invited Into tho dining room
I where delicious refreshments were
j served, with Mrs. W. S. Ralnsford and
| Mrs. R. B. Pitts pouring tea and cof|
fee.
j Nothing can give one more exquisite
pleasure than a stroll on a beautifully
kept lawn In the late afternoon.
Mrs. Pomeroy's guests were afforded
this pleasure which was greatly
heightened when suddenly* crno found
oneself in a lovely hidden garden built
around two large mill-stones In the
center of a dense group of pines. An
iinviting wrought iron bench is near
and extending in all directions are
bricked walks bordered with Ivy,
which also covered much of the entire
ground. All plants in this garden
were brought from woodlands and
placed In their natural habitat. Here
one could sit and enjoy an utter peace
und contentment listening to the
songs of the many birds Invited to
linger there.?Mrs. G. H. Baum, publlctity
for Garden Club.
Bundles For Britain
Plan Aid to Hospitals
Tuesday, May 6, will be Bundles for
Britain Hospital Hay all over the
United States and here in Camden the
lopal unit of Bund lea for Britain are
planning on having small banks placed
in many public places where the
public may deposit coins for the fund.
The picture of the hospital situation
in Kuglund is ghastly and there is
need of a generous response from
Americana to give immediate aid to
tho many institutions which have
suffered as tho skies rain death and
destruction, .
In England, May 6, ia known as
Hospital Da,y. On that date for many
years the entire nation joins in raising
funds for the voluntary hospitals.
In spite of war, threatened invasion
and nightly air raids England with
incredible heroism plans to hold as
usual this year their annual hospital
day.
instead of pretty ' debutantes in
Spring frocks collecting on street
corners this year there will be brave
English girls in tin huts and gas
masks who know that these hospitals
must continue their humane work.
But and this is a very Important
point? -there is very little money In
England now -and that is whore wo
fortunate Americans must lift high
tho torch for these hospitals.
in many communities in this country
tho hospital fund day will bo in
the nature of a tag day. In Now York
famous stars of tho stage and screen
have volunteered to collect funds.
Here in Camdon the local unit of
Bundles for Britain will place the
small banks about tho city, in stores,
theaters, b^n^s and other placos
where generous big-hearted Americans
can deposit their contributions
so that British hospitals may continue
to function.

DOCTOR'S
HOURS
Rare indeed is the Doctor who can
aay his working time is confined
within certain hours. Office hours
may be thus and so, but what with
free clinics, Hospital staff service,
Hospital calls, operation hours
and emergency calls, the A
Doctor's working day is long
and arduous. Even the Doctor
with a highly specialised
practice is
immune to broken
hours of sleep
and rest, JKm
