i6o MISSIONS IN THE TELUGU COUNTRY support during training, and at the end of the course all returned to their respective missions. Recently, for the second time, a similar class has been opened, which some S.P.G. students are now attending. Nandyal is comparatively well off for medical aid. There is a Government hospital there with a fully qualified Indian medical man. But at Kalasapad and Mutyalapad there is nothing except the Mission dispensaries. Readers may conceive the position of a sick person, for example at Kalasapad, without the Mission dispensary. The nearest medical aid is provided at a dispensary, maintained by the Government at Giddalur, which is twenty miles away, and the road to which is only partly made. The patient, if seriously ill, could hardly be carried there in a cart and survive the journey. He must then be carried on a bed, by men—a slow and exhausting process. The next nearest aid is another dispensary at Badvel, thirty miles away on the other side of Kalasapad. To this place there is a good road. But the nearest doctor is to be found at Jammalama- dugu, in the L.M.S. hospital, which is sixty miles away. In this direction also there is a good road, but a big river has to be crossed. Thus, between two Govern- ment dispensaries, fifty miles apart, there is no other place to come to for aid but the Kalasapad Mission dispensary. It should ie added that patients in India prefer mission to Government aid. Even though our dispensary has so much less equipment than the Government can afford to provide, many patients, if they cannot get to Jammalamadugu, will come to Kalasapad. One example may show what a dispensary may mean
MEDICAL WORK i6i to the people. In the autumn of 1908 cholera attacked the valley of Kalasapad. Cholera, as is well known, is so rapid a disease that, if medical aid does not come quicldy, it is useless for it to come at all. No help was available from Government sources. But immediately upon the outbreak, hundreds of cholera pills, suitable to be taken on the appearance of the first symptoms, were manufactured at the Kalasapad dispensary, and were sent to the senior mission agents with instructions for use. The teachers in forty villages were told, on the outbreak of cholera, to send to the nearest place for these medicines. Over and above the benefit from the medicine, the panic, a great factor in the spread of cholera, was by these precautions allayed. The Christians, in that visitation, suffered very little. Fully qualified doctors being so far distant, the dispensers have to treat nearly every case that presents itself, and they perform operations, some under chloro- form. Most, of course, though not all, of the operations are of the class called ' minor.' A very small number of beds are available for in-patients, and when in-patients come their friends have to be freely admitted to cook for and tend them. Most persons prefer to be out-patients, and the number of in-patients is comparatively small. In one year, for instance, at Kalasapad, there were only seventeen in-patients as against 4,655 out-patients. To illustrate the kind of work done, we give the following statistics of the largest classes of cases treated in that same year at Kalasapad. It should be noted that in these, and in the total of out-patients just given above, the cases are not all new. Each patient M
