South Amboy, Nov. 24:@There
was a special meeting of the Board
of Health last evening in city hall.
There were present DR.. Eulner, j.
A. Sexton Thomas Gesinon and In
spector Parisen, also Messrs.. Da-
Wis and Wyckoff of the Board of Ed
u~cation and School Physician DR..
Albright.
President Eulner stated at their
last meeting they had discussed
several things that had occurred
among the children in the schools
that appeared unhygienic and had
thought ii wise to have a talk with
the members of the Board of Educa-
ton to see whether it Is now being
taught in the school, and If not II
hey would lot advise it with the
children from the lowest grades
right on up to the highest. He
thought it very necessary that they
should be ms ructed in the simple
principles of hygiene, that informa-
ton of this character would be in
valuable. He asked If DR.. Albright
would favor the Board of Health
with a few remarks as to just what
relation he bears to the instruction
of hygiene in the schools.
DR.. Albright stated he did not
know the purpose for which he was
asked to attend the meeting or he
would have brought the code of in
structions which he followed. He
stated, however, the duties of the
school inspector is to examine the
children, noting their condition on
record cards provided for the pur-
pose, giving their name, age, weight,
height, condition of eyes, teeth.
nose, throat and their general CON
dition: that he also looked after the
general hygienic condition of the
buildings, also Is supposed to give
a talk two or three times during
the season on school hygiene. Or
anything that pertains to the pupils;
these talks being given to the teach
ers with the idea that they will
disseminate the information to the
pupils. DR.. Albright stated he had
gone over matters of this character
with the supervising principal and
where defects had existed, efforts
had been made to correst same.
Mr.. Davis, president of the Board
of Education, stated they had this
term placed in the school from the
fourth to eighth grade Gulick's sys-
tenn Of hygiene that practically COW
ers everything that had been
brought up during the evening in
the matter of cleanliness of the
body, etc. Mr.. Davis exhibited a
complete set of these books and they
were pronounced as being the prop
er course TO pursue, the only eriti-
cism being that 1t was thought they
should begin teaching in some prac-
tical way this subject in the lower
grades, as II was among the lower
grades the greatest spread of conta-
gious disease obtained.
DR.. Albright said he thought the
general condition had improved
wonderfully since the law went into
effect and that the general condition
of the pups hal also improved. 1t
appeared to be the concensus Of
opinion that the Board OF Education
had the matter pretty well In hama,
except that the subject should be
ouched upon in the lower grades.
1t was explained to the Board of
Health that pencils, ETC., were kept
separate and not allowed to be mix
ed so that different pupils handled
the same maerial.
