Prior to 1917 there was no state
wide organized activity for crippled
children in North Carolina The
General Assembly of that year, which
saw thousands of adults leave for the
war fronts of Europe, made legal pro-

Gastonia. It's services were limited
to white children under sixteen wears
of age and there were only sixty beds.

With the passage of the Social Sc
