I Sanitarium for Negroes Let us put on out' "specs" and take a good look at this thing: I Tuberculosis -among Negroes, and K* sanatorium Treatment in 'South K Carolina. Dr. James A. Haynes. State Health Superintendent, recently stated that about J,000 more sanatorium beds are needed in this State for Negroes. From his med[ ical reports the Doctor is right, h and from what we see of the unreported and suspected cases we ^ have reason to believe he is conservatively right. In this State there are about six county sanatoria, with a small 1 umber of bed accommodations for Negroes, also the Sfcuth Carolina Sanatorium with a division .Palmetto Sanatorium --pro|riding twetny-six. beds for Negroes. Need less to sa$, this is a more drop in the bucket; but there has been talk of more room at the South Carolina Sanatorium in the very pear' future.. And what makes the picture a little brighter, we are beginning to see some actual preparations to that end. But before--we go further, here is something to consider too. Even with only twenty-six beds at Palmetto Sanatorium, some o f them remain empty for months. The superintendent sends an applicant'*!! notice to report in five ~?" days-;?rf"Hi'.at?person does i}ot come or'answer, stating his or her intention, this tinre is lost in wai? ing to be sure before^ ^warding the place to another. So one can readily see that this, all too often repeated laxity, on the part of Negro patients will keep available beds empty to no end. Naturally tlie question, arises; Will a larger number . he used or left empty when the State provides them? Another throw hack Is the f.Tct that so-called intelligent Negroes as a rule, refuse to enter a sanatorium?the place where he can only get the best treatment. Their reasons l-care.not to go into, as they are many and generally are groundless. Though it is my hum ble opinion that any person who is recommended to sanatorium treatment should go. if only to learn some health habits, so valuable for the 'protection, of himself and others. The. South Carolina Sanatorium with its staff of well-trained and experienced speciyJ/sts'. is com1 pletely equipped to give thorough diagnosis and modern treatments. Unfortunately mo-t county sanatoria are not so equipped. That practically moans that the Ne Igroi-s of the State must look <11reetly to iho South . Carolina Suna.tQriuni for satisfactory diagnosis and direction in whatever fight there is to be made against this acre old ravager. This contact with the State Sanatorium or its traveling clinic cannot be emphasized too -much, when we ponder the fact that the general practicing physicjur is absolutely not able, through the lack of 'specialized training and equipment." to definitely "spot" tuberculosis in the earlier stages, when a cure i< most probable. This docs not'-detract from the usefulness of. the family doctor, but nu-ielv stre-sos the difficulty of his ta-k when a patidnt thru ignorance or fear does not make hiniself available for ajA.-cialized examinations. It is regrettable that so many people, who are in great need of this aipl more information ot; "his subject, never get it because of their litter indUTercnce to reading matter. The firs*' step in meeting' any problcpx is ,to read, rcad?, read and learn all you can about it; then next make an honest effort to u-.e that you have learned.

Truly, "Iuiorai.ee is no excuse r>f the law." and certainly is no cure for tuberculosis. K. T.' JOXES. Mt. Cow ell Haptist - Church The .''.7th -ession of the* Saint Vautthnville Baptist S. S.
