The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1903-09-09

In order 10 look INTO the real working
or the system OF treating and curing con-
, sumptives at DR.. Peters Pine Ridge
camp In Foster. on the Providence and
Danielson railroad. a News representa-
tive visited the camp yesterday. where
he was met by DR. Henry r. Potter. one
OF the visiting phys sians, and ~escorted
on tour of inspection throughout the
entire establishment
First visit was TO the row or tents where
the ladies are located. two comfortable
cots being provided for each tent with
plenty OF bed clothing The cots are
about a foot from the ground on a sub
stantal board floor or platform. VIII ch
Is wise provision against dampness that
neaNy rains must necessarily cause
where cots are located on the ground.
The ladies All take care OF their own
tents, and have the privilege of keeping
house In the narrow quarters allotted
them with rs much skill as they see az
70 use Everything Is neat and clean
and the tidyness Of the different tents
makes them positively attractive
From here the visitor was taken TO the
main avenue OF tents. where the men are
located these being arranged the same
as those occupied by the ladies. and cared
by for by the occupants IN the same
careful manner.
No state encampment could stand in
epcction and pass muster any more sue
cessfully. than thcse ouarters that arc
kept n poc1 order caily BY the patients
occupying them.
