How mseh ti a (gild’s Ufa' worth?
That is a question aach and every
adult in Camden and Kershaw county
who have One or more little folks ia
their home, should be ssklng.
The answer should be and Is “It’s
worth aU the money yon have and
more if it's one of your own chUdrea.'*
And that ia the big reason why aaob
and every one of oa ahonld back the
campaign being inaugurated by the
Camden Lions club to provide ftp!
Iron Lung" for the Camden hospital.
Did you know that avery yaar over
10,000 people die from esphyxia (fail
ure to breathe)., Ylioosands of tkaas
victims could be saved If an Iron Laag
irere handy when needed. When the
breath of lift stops, H only takOs a
minntea tor death to occur. So
it Is Imperative that an Iron Ludg
be cioae at hspd to b# of any valna
And for tost very reason the Cam*
den Lions chib has taken the Jnltta-
