j ' Copeland Lauds Evening World’s Camp of Whooping Cough Kiddies Health Conimissioner Tells of Benefits to 161 Children Derived From Riverside Refuge. “The work that has been done here this summer will benefit not merely the children directly restored to health, not merely New York City, or even Americc, but the whole world, And we owe our heartiest thanks to Cousin Eleanor of The Evening World for her initiative and enthusiasm.” So deciaret Health Commissioner > Copeland in his address to the staff] their homes 161 children\so far this of the hospital at Riverside Island, “said Dr. Copeland Secs dren were taken when their re- valescents where the 161 lttle convalescents) i tince to disease was lowest and from whooping cough have beeM}i ave heen restored with their resist- eared for co-operatively by the}ance at 100 per cent.

We have known for years that something should be done to save children with whooping cough from becoming tubercular, But it was not until Cousin Eleanor of The Evening World came to me full of enthusiasm and with the means at hand to undertake the work that it became feasible. It is the first time In the history of the world that such a camp has been maintained and 1 hope that when we resume the work next summer we will find that other cities are following sult as a re- sult of the widespread publicity pro- vided by The Evening World.” In the afternoon the children bad ail been assembled on the lawn under the trees to greet the Commissioner As he stepped ashore from the hos- pital boat Riverside, which conveyed him to the island, he gazed on a big canvas banner welcoming him, Then in the centre of the island, were the happy children each waving .an American flag in one hand and a toy balloon in the other. It was a gay and inspiring sight, all the more so since Dr, Copeland realized that each one of these ruddy, sturdy youngsters had possibly been snatched from the clutches of the groat white plague. Dr. Robert S$, Wilson, director of Board of Health Hospitals, added his thanks to those of Dr. Copeland for the ald given by The Evening World and then speaking from a strictlY professional side told of his satisfac- tion over the way members of the Board of Visiting Physicians had been won over, “Whooping cough has been regarded as best treated by iso- lation in the home and not in a hos- pital,” he said, “but it is now ad- mitted that We have met with com- ccess, The visiting physi- ve been struck by the ap- and training of the children. Our success has been due primaril} to the fact that the children have plenty of fresh air, andLalso to the fact that we have been able to provide ade- quate nursing.” Dr. Thomas F. Joyce during the afternoon saw that the children were kept in three groups. First there were the alumni—the children first to be received in the camp when it was opened in June and who had pro- gressed from an anaemic stage, racked by convulsions of coughing, to perfect health and strength in the e®ix weeks’ vacation at the island, No child is discharged until the doctors and nurses are convinced that it is safe. All of these children were kept for six weeks and some for two months or more, until the sun and sea breezes could effect their cure. There is no specific medicine for whooping cough, according to Dr. Dr. Joyce, who is in direct charge Copeland, but fresh air, sunlight,] of the children and endeared to every good food and enlightened afd} one of them, made a very brief ad- thoroughgoing medical attention.| qress which was in the nature of a And that is what the children got and report to the Commissioner. "We are getting at Riverside Island. have handled 161 children so far this summer and we have not had one case of cross infection from any other disease and not one accident or other untoward incjdent,” he said. sR ABIE” EI SHIP NEWS INFORMATION In the second group were the chil- dren “who are about to be graduate!— those who have been at the island at least two weeks and are well on the road to recoyery. The third group was a less happy one. It contained the youngsters only yecently admitted and who are under- going quarantine in the detention camp. They are still ill, of course, and are under observation to make} oy, sure that they are developing no] 2 other illness. : Due To-Day. An entertainment of singing, danc- ing and recitations was presented for Dr. Copeland by three talented Kiddie Klub members, all of whom have re- cently had whooping cough, and all of the youngsters had ice creani and “Happiness” cutie pops.
