Proprietor L APPEAL ISSUED Miss Mildred Carlton, president of the Jackson County Public Health association, Issued an appeal today to all persons in the county Inter ested In public health work, ssklng them to rally to the aid of the mem bership drive now In progress. The drive this week Is not making the progress anticipated, she stated, and unless more people come to the support of health work, through pay ing of the small membership fee, It will be necessary for Jackson coun ty to make drastic retrenchments. A membership of at least 1000 per sons should be obtained here. The quota today was far short of that number, workers announced. With the splendid start that health work has In this county, the leaders explained, It would be very regret able should curtailments have to be made at this time, with the begin ning made possible here, health work has acquired' a foundation for great strides, which will be realized if ac tivities are not halted by a greatly reduced budget. The membership drive will continue through the rest of the week and It Is hoped that the final count will find all public spirited people silled with health work as members of the association.
