IN operation for Al number OF yea rs.
II Is maintained at Healthwin and
is on the same grounds with the

ton and is entirely separate al
though the Healthwin staff and that
Of the league work in cooperation
In the matter OF the Preventorium
just as they do in conducting the free
tuberculosis clinics at the court
house in South Bend. at the city hall
in Mishawaka, and elsewhere in the
county. The league furnishes this
service free 10 the children IN SUP
normal health for the purpose OF
building them up through the sum-
mer, fitting them for their school
term in the fall and preventing them
from becoming cases OF tuberculosis.
