STATE BOARD AND
COUNTY HEALTH SURVEY

Columbia, Feb 23.-The state board
of health, through Dr.. Luther y. Ri
ser, who is in charge OF that depart
ment, will Immediately begin work
upon county health surveys in Or
rangeburg and Greenwood counties.
Each of these counties has appropriat-
ed $4,000 which will be supplemented
by $4,000 for each by the State and
$4,000 for each to be given by the
international health board. Intensive
work will be inaugurated. Dr.. F. VI.
Routh will be in charge of the work
in Greenwood county, and DR.. V. w.
Brabham will be in charge of the
work proposed in Orangeburg county.
Drs. Routh and Brabham are field di-
rectors under the State board Of
health. The effort will be to visit
each rural home in each of the coun-
ties and to suggest improvements IN
the matter Of sanitation.
DR.. Riser said today that the State
board would probably be able to ar
range to give short courses of three
months each in several other coun-
ties, looking towards rural sanitation
instruction.
"Healthgrams,' to be posted in pub
lie places, have been prepared by the
State board.
In regard to the work to be started
in Orangeburg and Greenwood coun-
ties, $4,000 will be available under
the status for each county.

inc: My December statement to the
comptroller general will show that !
spent out of the game protection fund
S134.4O and the State treasurer's
books will show that in December we
collected $21,5O9.47. Is it not reason
able to presume that l did good busl-
ness by spending the above-mention-
ed small amount to collect up sucn
large sum OF money
The governors message says the
chief game warden has spent on this
item alone s1,204.65, plus mileage
books s120. incidentals SlS4, automo-
bile and boat hire $1,500.41.' This IS
another ferversion OF the true facts,
and will show right her that it is.
81 make monthly statements to the
comptroller general itemizing the
travelling expenses of chief game war
den and I make another entirely dill
ferent statement to the comptrollef
general covering expenditures OF the
entire deDartment throughout the
State. The mileage books and the
automobile and boat hire are shown
on the last mentioned statement. The
one covers expenses Of the entire de-
partment and any one with common
sense who will look at these state
ments could not possibly think tnat
the above items were spent by the
chief game warden for his own travel
ing expenses. The other amount or
1854, mentioned by the governor as
sircidentals,' is an untrue statement
altogether. l have never spent o:'e
cent since l have been in Office and
marked it 'incidentals.' Every dollar
that has been spent by me has been
disbursed by check and stub shows
what for. furthermore, | have IN my
possession with endorsement OF the
person to whom it was issued each
check.
THE whole message is misleading
from start to finish, but do not care
to 90 any further into it now. except
to say this that if a bold lobby was
pulled off Governor Manning and his
friends worked just as hard on one
side as | and my friends did on the
other and because they did not have
any luck is not my fault.
Since writing the above, Mr.. L. A
Searson, certified public accountant
has gone through my expenditures
and has found that the averAge
amount paid the men working under
me will figure out to be s37.I per
month to the man.

Hall and several old historical points.
Also have been all over the Boston
Commons, where the first bloodshed of
the Revolutionary War was, and
Scolly Square and places too numer-
Gus to mention. All have history at
tached to them, and it is an education
to see them and in afterlife to be able
to say so.
Bought a few postcards of these
places, and will mail them to you all
from time to time. Save them, for
they will be interesting when my
cruise is over. The Tonapah, which
saw in Annapolis, is here. Don't
you remember seeing it when yOJ
| were there? 1t is to be worked on,
and leaves shortly for the other side
when ready. Wish | could take you
| all around here, and we could see
these sights together, Tor they are
great and l know you would be in
tercsted in them all. One sight is to
see the Charleston go into the dry
dock. She is a very large ship, but
not of a first-class type.
In New Port we learned to splice
ropes, hawsers, etc, tic knots, ETC.,
but here we get nothing of the kind,
except in Ease we use them. We get
no instruction along this line here,
except to lash our hammocks, etc,
which was all done the first night we
arrived.
