In last week's issue of The Record an appeal was made to all good citizens of Williamsburg to assist in the campaign for the eradication of hookworm disease, now being carried on in the county. This appeal was not in vain. Responses have * 11 a._ - r i.L. come m irom an parts 01 uie wuuty. The first two days of this week as many examinations were made as during the whole two weeks previous. Dr Riser has received many letters of encouragement and offers of assistance from representative citizens. This work, in the interest of public health, will last four weeks longer in this county and we hope that thousands will avail themselves of this offer of free examination and treatment. It is thought that a similar campaign against tuberculosis and malaria may be arranged if just and proper appreciation is shown for the work now being done. 75 per cent of the white children in the county who have been examined are found to have hookworm disease, and the percentage among negroes is the highest of any county in the State. |Dr Riser, who is in charge of this work in the county, will be at the following places on dates named where free examination and treatment will be given. Do not put this off till the last week when so many apply and some will have to be turned away. Every Tuesday, Hemingway, Farmers' Drug Store; every Wednesday, Greelyville, Dr Taylor's office; every Thursday, Gourdins, Dr Rich's office; every Friday, Nesmith, Dr Pratt's office; every Saturday, Kingstree, Court House. Ice cream and cake will be served on the court house lawn Friday evening from 7:00 till 10:00 o'clock, for benefit of the Epworth League.
