Interest In Health
Services Increasing
August Reports Of Nurses
Show Active Participation
By Lay Groups

The desire for improved health
services is apparent from many
quarters of Montgomery county, as
judged by the monthly reports of
the seven health department staff
nurses. One lay health committee
is anxious to start venereal dis
ease clinic and has already OBJ
tanned permission to use the local
fire house. Another group, the
Dickerson Round-Table, voted to
assist in establishing health cen
ter in Poolesville. A building is
available, but money is needed to
repair it and install partitions and
equipment.
From two nurses come requests
from the public for removal or re-
placement Of unsanitary privies.
The demand to abolish these health
menaces is particularly strong in
the suburban area where the prox-
unity TO houses makes the danger
greater. In one area a dispute
arose in regard to a sewage nuis-
ance on the ground that the nearby
unsanitary privies were an equal
menace.
A number of children received
hospital care for the removal of
tonsils and adenoids. Others re-
ceived treatment for eye condi-
tions at the Episcopal Hospital in
Washington. Lay health commit
tees are assisting through trans
portation services and giving finan-
cial aid to needy cases. An under
rished child was much improved
~ attending a camp, the cost of
which was taken care of by the
Upper Montgomery Lions Club.

The purpose of the program is
to improve the living opportunities
for the lowest paid group of work
ers who now live in the agricul-
tural sections of the county and to
help and not upset all other gov
ernmental and economic local con-
ditions.
The construction of such a large
group of houses will, if worked
out, produce great amount of
employment during the next 18
months in which county residents
will participate.

County Rural Housing
Authority Plans Series of
Modern LOw-Cost Homes
DODGE SILVER ANNIVERSARY
AWARD
(Continued from page ID

\OOHLluuSQ 1EOiH page
Byron yesterday and have you
hand me your letter of September
7th, announcing the formation of
Montgomery County Housing Au-
thority. May I again pledge you
the fullest cooperation of the
United States Housing Authority
toward the Inauguration of rural
project in Montgomery County at
the earliest possible moment.
Faithfully yours,
"(Signed) Nathan Straus,
Administrator"
Chairman Lee said yesterday
that the tentative plan of the
Housing Authority of Montgomery
county as outlined to the United
States Housing Authority, is to
consider agricultural Montgomery
County as consisting of eight large
agricultural sections and to plan
for the construction of two villages
OF groups of homes in each such
agricultural section. One group of
houses would be available for rent
al to white workers of the lowest
income group, and the other to COL
ored workers of the lowest income
group. be
Lee said that under the plan of
the U. S. Housing Authority the
maintenance, operation and liqui-
dation of these housing groups
would not cost Montgomery County
any money and that the entire cost
would be provided by the Federal
government and liquidated through
rents and Federal contributions.
The County Housing Authority,
he said, plans to buy the sites for
the various villages and at the end
Of the Cougar mortgage term of
the U. S. Housing Authority, the
group of houses will belong to the
Montgomery County Housing Au-
thority which is 100 per cent a
branch of the government of Mont
gomery County, and all of whose
members are appointed by the
board of county commissioners and
serve without compensation.
The proposed houses will be
planned of long term substantial
construction with running water
end sanitary facilities, modern
heating, and each house will be
planned with an adequate garden
plot. The houses will rent at Sc,
So, $40 and $12 per month and the
occupants will enjoy certain bene-
fits such as local Fairgrounds and
other opportunities for improved
living conditions.
1t was pointed out that by plac-
ing two such villages in each of
the main agricultural sections of
the county the present opportuni-
ties for work will not be disturbed
and there will be no dislocation of
the general merchandising or other
setups of the communities in ques-
ton. In addition the lack of CEN
tralization of the projects will not
put an undue strain on the county's
present school system as the chill
dren of the same families that will
live in the new locations are now
attending school in the same gen.
eral sections of Montgomery
County.
During long term of years the
Housing Authority in the natural
course of events is required to re-
move one existing sub-standard
dwelling unit for each new unit to
be built and the Authority is auth
orized to acquire such sub-standard
dwelling by either purchase or con-

TRIBUNE FUND TO SEND
FRESH AIR VISITORS

The Tribune Fund again stands
ready to send out for the Holiday
Season the Fresh Air guests of the
summer whom Friendly Town hosts
wish to invite. Railroad fares will be
paid and the Fund will arrange the
trips just as during the summer seas
on.
More than 500 Friendly Towners
extended invitations last year. This
year invitations are already beginning
to flood in. Since the Fund works with
greatly reduced staff at this time
of year, it is necessary to have re-
quests from hosts as early as possible.
They should be in the Fund office not
later than December 10.
Those who wish to extend invita-
tions should get in touch with Mrs.
George S. Bunting, Pocomoke.
Children will be sent out on Deem
Der 81 or % to remain until January
2. Exact information as to the date
and hour of arrival will be mailed as
near December 10 as possible.
This is not a request to invite
Christmas Visitor, but an expression
of the Funds great willingness to CO.
operate if anyone wishes to cooperate.

WILLARDS MAN LOST in
WOODS FOUND DROWNED

A member Of a searching party
splashing through the treacherous
Pocomoke River swamp on Friday Of
last week, found the body of Wood
row Rayne, 81, of Willards, who dis
appeared the day before while gath
ering holly.
Word was sent to police authorities
that Benton Adkins, of Berlin, and a
group of five men among 200 search
ers found Rayne dead in the swamp.
He was lying on the bank of the riv-
er with his head in the water. He APP
parently drowned accidentally.
The search began when Rayne's
parents sought the aid of Superinten-
dent Dan Haningan Of the Powell
vile drainage camp where 200 CCC
enrollees have begun setting up Q
camp preparatory to draining the 10
mile bog on the Delaware boundary.

LARGE BUILDING
ON MARKET STREET
BOUGHT BY B.P.O.E.
Will Convert 1t Into Up-TO-Date
Club House For Use By
Local Order

The recently organized Lodge Of
Benevolent and Protective Order of
Elks, has purchased the building on
Market Street, built between 80 and
so years ago by the late Emerson G.
Polk, it's latest occupants having been
the heirs of the late Henry w. Gala
han.
The Elks, of course, will convert
this into what might be called club
house, more properly, however an
Elks' Home. It is roomy and we'll
built and was constructed at a time
when good lumber and good labor
were not charged for at present day
rates. With very little expense, it can
be made to answer all the purposes for
which it was bought.
The Lodge already has large MEM
bership, and, it is understood will soon
make drive for increasing its lists.
It meets twice a week, and its meet
ings are devoted to business and good
fellowship. It is an extremely pa
triotic and liberal order, and is ever
alive to the needs of the community.
At present it does not have the meal
feature that some other service clubs
have, but now that this Lodge has a
home, it may introduce the function.

DENTAL WORK in
SCHOOLS BEGAN TUES.

Dental work in the schools for this
year began on Tuesday, December 9Th
when DR.. Roy Bridger, the School
Dentist reported for work. He will
start in the lower end of the County
and will work through the white
schools to the upper end of the Coun-
ty.
All children in the first three grades
will be examined and those children
for whom parents request dental work
will be treated at a fee of $1.00 This
small fee is possible because of the
financial support given the program
by the County Commissioners and in
no way is to be compared with the fees
charged by private dentists.

MRS. LANDLORD
POCOMOKE SEAL
SALE CHAIRMAN
Sale Opened December First.
POc0mOke's Quota $3.50,
Same AS Last Year

A meeting was called Monday by
Mrs. Roger w. Landlord, Pocomoke
chairman of the tuberculosis Seal
Sales, for the purpose of naming a
committee to assist in the sale and to
formulate plans whereby the quota of
$3.50 for Pocomoke might be reached.
Last year the sale fell below the
quota.
The following assistant chairmen
were named: Mrs. James M. Crockett,
Mrs. William R. Willard, Mrs. w.
Sidney Stevens, Mrs. John H. Clarke,
Mrs. Harry Shaw and Mrs. Phil
Creath.
The public-spirited citizens of Po-
comoke and of Worcester County have
been aiding in the prevention of Tu-
berculosis for a number of years. The
seal sale campaign is most important
to those interested in the control of
this dread disease. In this way funds
are raised and used to reduce the death
rate and control the spread. These
contributions also help the county pay
for x-rays and maintain clinics. Sta
tistics show that the death rate from
tuberculosis ten. years ago was 1851
per 100000 population for colored and
67.2 per 100000 for white. The death
rate has been declining annually be-
cause of early case finding and hos
pitalization of those found, and con-
trolling the spread of the disease.
This great service has been render
ed to the people of the state through
the money derived from the Seal Sale
and the activities of the County Health
Departments and the Maryland Tu-
berculosis Association. Those who
purchase these seals are members of
a vast army in this state united in
fighting tuberculosis.
The committee will devote its time
to the distribution of posters, con-
tacting organizations for donations
and later on will establish booths in
the shopping area.
The colored population are cooper
ating and will do their part to finance
this important program in Worcester
County.
If you have not received seals thru
the mail and desire to contribute to
this cause, you can purchase seals
from the Pocomoke chairman or any
member of the committee. The sup
port of the public will be appreciated.
The seal sale officially opened Fri
day, December LIST. Help Pocomoke
to reach its quota this year.
