MEDICAL NEEDS
 IN PUBLIC SCHOOL SUPT. CANNON'S VIEWS DOES CONWAY NEED MEDICAL INSPECTION IN HER PUB
 LIC SCHOOL?

This is a day when much is being said in the public press and from the public platform concerning medical inspection for schools. In nearly. all of the larger cities medical inspection has already been established. Condi- tions discovered have, in nearly every case, fully justified this tardy act of justice in behalf of the helpless chil- dren of our country. We are accus- toned to think that such things are all right in cities and large towns, but that there is no real need for any thing of the kind in smaller towns, such as Conway.
 Let those who think this way study carefully the following facts gathered from the first six grades of the Con- way public school.
 I recently prepared and handed out to the teacher of each of the above mentioned grades blank, calling for the number of cases showing any of the following symptoms of disease, disorder, etc.
 In addition to the foregoing, 10 eases of defective speech are report ed. It will be noted that of all the disorders reported on, the cases of dental trouble far exceed any of the others, there being 154 cases. Mouth breathing and adenoids come next with AZ cases.
 Two cases of eye trouble are re- ported as mild, the others as being more or less serious Ten pupils have difficulty in hearing. Thirteen show a marked disposition to nervousness or sluggishness. An adequate medic al examination would doubtless reveal the cause in most of these cases.
 Is there not cause for grave con cern in the facts shown here? Take, for instance, the mouth-breathing, adenoid children. Many of them are undergoing daily the slow process of oxygen starvation. Many of them are already retarded one, two, three, or even four years in their work. They are becoming more and more

 As the returns in the national con- gressional race pour in from every part of the nation, the scope of the Democratic victory Tuesday becomes wider and wider. The Democratic party will dominate the house of the sixty third congress more completely than during the past two years.
 With 16 districts still unreported, the Democrats have elected 287 mem- bers, the Republicans i18 and the Progressives IA.
 The total of 2S7 gives the Demo crats 69 more than the 218 necessary for majority and 57 more than the Democratic membership in the sixty second congress.

It costs approximately $15 per pu- pil to maintain the school as it IS at present. It is also safe to say that at least 50 per cent of the cases re- ported in the above lists are doing unsatisfactory work; in all probabil- | ity will be unable to make their grades this year, and from causes that competent medical attention could prevent. Suppose there are 25 such cases, and the number is proba- ply larger? This means loss of 1,125 a year, more than enough to provide the medical attention needed
 And when we consider the danger from contagious diseases and the per manent injury to the health of SC many children, along with the eco- homie loss to the community result ing from preventable causes, the question seems to be not, Gan we af- ford medical inspection and attention in the school" but "Can we afford not to have it?"

 know something of the troubles ac-

The teacher of the fifth grade writes: Thirty pupils have hollow teeth" The teach CT of the fourth grade writes: "One boy especially needs attention. He seems to have a mixture of all the troubles possible Mouth-breathing in his case is very pronounced. There are some bad adenoid cases" This grade reports 15 out of the 42 cases of mouth-breathing and adenoids.
 Another teacher writes "I have one p1pil who has an offensive odor all the time, though this pupil ap- pears to be cleanly dressed. Another has a very weak mind, apparently. He disturbs those around him most of the time, and is very troublesome.
 Another writes: -Four children with defective speech Six unusually dull. Four" (giving their names) need attention before l can do any thing for them
 I asked the teachers to note only such cases as any observant person might easily note; also, to state whether the case was a mild or acute form, ands whether, in the teachers $ judgment, the case or cases noted needed medical attention at once in order to be able to do school work Following are the total re- suits:

THE NEW CLUB
 AT EDGEWOOD

The plans recently noted as to the Country club at Edgewood are interesting not merely to the athlete and the motor enthusiast, according to a member of the club, but promise delightful things to so- ciety generally. The officers of the club are working on plans and improvements that will make it most attractive and ex- elusive, and in a few weeks it bids fair to take a prominent place in the social world of the vicinity, for 1t promises in- novations that other and larger clues en- joy in their club life, but have hitherto been impracticable in Birmingham.
 The beauty of the clubhouse and Its surroundings have received frequent pub lie comment. The building is picturesque and convenient as well, and the wood land surrounding 1t affords a beautiful background. The members of the club are becoming enthusiastic over the pros pective completion of the various at tractive features. With an automobile speedway and golf links lake hlled with launches and other pleasure crafts, a clubhouse in which week end parties may be accommodated and cafe where motor parties may stop for luncheon, the club will be popular social medium.
