A Bill

A Bill
TO Provide for a System Of Medi-
cal Examination Of School Children
and Students Attending Public
Schools and Colleges Within the
State.
Be it enacted by the General AS
sembly Of the State OF South Caro-
lima:
Section |. The board Of school
trustees shall appoint one or more
physicians to act as official medical
examiners, hereinafter called school
physicians under the terms of this
act, at each and every public school
and college within the State, and
shall provide said physicians with
all proper facilities for the perform
ance Of their duties as such exami-
ners: Provided, however, that moth
ing herein contained shall be con-
strued to require or authorize such
appointment at any school or col
lege already employing regular
physician for it's school children or
students.
Sec. g. Every school physician
shall make a prompt examination
and diagnosis OF all children or stu
dents referred to him as herinafter
provided, and such further exami-
nation of teachers, janitors and
school buildings as. in his opinion,
the protection of the health of the
public may require.
Sec. 3. The teachers shall cause
to be reported to a school physician
for examination and diagnosis every
child or student returning to school
without certificate from a board
of health, or, where no such boari,
account Of illness or from unknown
cause; and every school child or
student who shows signs Of i'll health
or of suffering from contagious or
infectious disease shall be so re-
ported, unless at once excluded from

sec. 4. The school physician shall
report. to the appropriate teacher
ana the teacher shall notify the par

ever a school child or student shows
symptoms OF smallpox, whooping
cough o'ph'heria, scarlet fever,
measles, chicken pox, mumps, in
huenza or any other contagious or
infectious disease, such school child

mediately by the teacher, or as soon

paternal legislation. Most States
seem to think that they have this
right, since most of them have pass.
ed similar bills. Each State has the
right to pass laws for it's own pro-
lection and for the up-building Of
it's citizens.
The fourth objection is one sell
dom urged, but dangerous because
Of the base insinuation that is con-
veyed by those evil minds that sug-
gest 1t. We refer to the manner and
mode Of examination as conducted
by the examiner. In the first place,
the examinations are Invariably con-
Quoted In the presence of the teacher
and several children, no clothing is
removed from the child. the exami-
ner asks certain questions, none Of
them ever creating the slightest en-
barrassment, and then tests the
hearing and the eye-sight, examines
the skin of the face and the hands,
the mucous membranes Of the
mouth, nose, throat and finally the
teeth. The efficiency of the eXami-
nation depends largely upon whe-
ther the examiner Is an acute OBJ
server. That Is all there Is to it.
Of course, If diphtheria is suspected,
a culture Is taken from the throat,
which clears up the doubt. If the
child appears tubercular, a very SIM
pie skin test is made, which deter
mines the matter.
In conclusion, we trust that, for
the sake Of progress and enlighten-
ment, each voter will consider, most
carefully, this question, and pay
childhood that debt that each man
owes to 1t. We hope that, despite
the bitterness engendered in politi-
cal campaigns, this question may not
be considered a political question:
but one OF craftsmanship, founded
upon good sense as we'll as mercy,
and that we may conclude that. even
though opportunities may have been
denied us, they shall not be denied
our children
Let us strive to drive away suffer
ing and sorrow from children's
paths. Let us labor increasingly in
the splendid cause Of promoting So
hriety and right-living by building
up strong minds in strong bodies.

1T is as much as to say we have all
the Fairgrounds we need, all the op'
portunities for all the people we need
and nothing Is desired except heaven,
and we are not sure that we want to
leave Detroit even for that"
who are the patriots?" was the
subject OF Bishop Williams remarks.
He divided patriotism into two types
the old, which boasted OF the past and
saw manifest destiny in the future.
sticking to the belief with obstinate
optimism, and the new, which has a
keen consciousness OF national de-
fects and definite national purpose.
America, he said was experiencing
something OF the new patriotism, was
getting away from the idea based on
individuSism, and was beginning to
see in government the means OF work
ing out social betterment. II think
that women are as well fitted for the
work OF proper civic betterment as
men," Bishop Williams said, They
know II alleys are dirty, If the schools
are not properly managed, II the po-
lice department Is not run properly.
