good health report
The health and sanitary survey
of the town of McCrory was com
pleted Monday. Every home has
been visited and the demonstra
tion now has a complete record
of the population of McCrory.
The director of the campaign is
outspoken in his praise of the
water supply as furnished by the
driven pumps at practically all
of the homes. It is also found
that a great majority of the
homes are screened, though some
of them need repairs. Thus far
about two hundred persons have
been examined for hookworm
and none were found to have
them, though a few were found
to have intestinal parasites of
other kinds.
The director of the campaign
says that the two things most
needed here to protect the health
of the people are, first, sanitary
closet at every home and place
of business, and second, drain
ing of the near-by mosquito
breeding places. The demon
stration will supply a man to in
stall the closets, and it is possi
ble that if the people manifest a
sufficient amount of co-operative
spirit the drainage proposition
may be undertaken later on. To
those who co-operate the demon
stration will offer additional ben
efit as the campaign progresses.
The survey of the town having
been completed, the work is now
being extended to the country and
will be carried to the other parts
of the county as rapidly as pos
sible.
