The Forrest County Medical Society
at its last meeting appointed com
mittee consisting of Dr.. J. J. Stevens,
DR.. w. w. Crawford and County
Health Officer Dr. Robert Donald, to
go before the board of supervisors for
the purpose of learning if 1t is not
practical to tent or shack some
third degree consumptives at the
county farm.
Several days ago Dr. Stevens applied
to the secretary of the state board OF
health to learn what disposition most
of the counties in this state are max
! ing of those consumptives who have
reached the third degree stage. Re-
plying to this inquiry DR.. E. H. Gallo
way, secretary of the board, said:
there is absolutely no provision that
can be made for those cases in this
state. We have no institution where
they can 60" The matter was brought
to the attention of the county medical
society with the result as stated
1t is said there are relatively few
cases of consumption in Forrest coun-
ty and the majority of the cases exist
ing are among the negro race AS a
rule these people, when they become
enfeebled by the disease, are in q
poverty stricken condition, because
their chance to earn living is gone
and they not only often suffer for thu

to the health of the entire community
