Facts About the Compulsory
MEDICAL Inspection Of Schools

tire nation. Several prominent off,
Gals, in fact, are plainly on record to
this effect.
In securing allies, the political doc
tors, have shown a resourcefulness
worthy of a noble cause. For several
years they have received the active
support of a number of prominent
agencies, such as the Committee Of
One Hundred, the Russell Sage Foun-
dalton and various economic and So
Geological societies, including Women's
clubs. Misguided philanthropy has
always been the unwilling tool of op-
preston.
Rising Tide of Opposition.
All intelligent citizens imbued with
democratic ideals are naturally suspi-
cious of routine medical inspection,
those who have seen, with disinterest-
ed eyes, its operation in our schools,
declare it to be a gross infringement
upon the liberty of the individual.
Since medical inspection is wholly
allopathic, except as it includes dem
tistry, it ignores and often wantonly
violates the teachings of other schools.
To force any therapeutic measure
upon a subject who holds such e
ure harmful is directly opposed to the
principle of sympathic treatment,
universally acknowledged to be the
first essential of the healing art.
Since medical inspection frequently
leads to morbid introspection 1t re-
ceives the condemnation of a large and
rapidly increasing class who place the
psychological factor above the physio-
logical.
Since the average medical inspector
is a young or incompetent doctor, un-
trained as a diagnostician, to whom
the majority Of the pupils are neces-
sarily strangers, his hurried examin-
atoms and arbitrary decisions have
brought wholesale condemnation ever
from within his own profession.
Since medical inspection so far as
1t relates to cleanliness and the
hygienic care of the children of the
slums is a purely sociological question,
its introduction into the schools is re-
garded by many sociologists as a mere
palliative, and by it's indirect cost an
actual burden rather than a relief to
the oppressed classes. Granted, say
others, that such oversight is neces-
sary, do we require a vast medical
machinery to apply soap and water
and examine children's scalps?
But the leading opponents of COM
pulsory inspection are the army OF in
dignant parents whose wishes have
been ignored or defied and whose
children have been coerced. This
army already numbers many hundred
thousand. and is increasing daily.
1t is the representatives of these
varied elements who are swelling the
membership of The National League
for Medical Freedom, an association
organized solely to oppose such forms
of medical oppression.
Compulsory Medical Inspection.

HOW CONNIE MACK
SIGNS HIS STARS.

McCreary was the star pitcher Of
the Pennsylvania State college team
last year. After his school closed,
McCreary started to pitch ball for
some independent teams aroun Phila-
delphia. One day he was twirling for
the Ocean City team, near Atlantic
City. He famed a dozen batsmen and
bIanked the Atlantic City bunch. Aft
er. the game the catcher for the Allan
tic City club called McCreary aside
and inquired If he would like to join a
big league club.

lantic City catcher. Attach your sig
nature to it and you'll have no trouble
arranging the salary question with my
father"
Who are you, and who's your
blooming father?" inquired McCreary.

is Connie Mack, manager of the ath-
l~etics," said the catcher for the A. c.
team. We've heard about you and

MEETS ORDEMAN HERE
Russian Wrestler Will Make His First
Appearance in Fargo When He
Meets ordeman.

When the curtain is rung up at the
operahouse next Tuesday night, April
2, it is expected a fast match will be
witnessed. Henry Ordeman, the
American champion, will clash with
Ivan Romanoff, the Russian giant, in
a finish bout, best two out of three
falls.
Ordeman is in the pink of condition
and is working out daily in his pri-
vate gym in Minneapolis, while
Romanoff is conditioning himself with
Packey Mcfarland, the welterweight
champion mitt singer in Chicago.
Romanoff will arrive in the gate city
April 1 to finish his training.

seriously considering their introduce
ton in the schools.)
1t means, by repeated suggestion and
the alarming ordeal of physical ex-
animation, a morbid reign Of alarms
and panics in our schools which in
many cases directly induces the evil
it ostensibly guards against.
1t means to sensitive children the
public exposure and exaggeration of
some minor defect or petty ailment
which seldom escapes a mothers
watchful eye or the vigilance of the
family physician.
1t exaIts the germs of disease to a
pinnacle of power only equaled by
primitive conceptions Of a personal
devil.
Such evils are inherent in the sys-
tenn everywhere.
But medical inspection has likewise
become contaminated by political cor
ruption, and it would be difficult to
devise a system more susceptible to
favoritism and graft.

nish examples of the collision be-
tween the medical inspector, whether
a doctor or a nurse, and the private
practitioner, the dentist or the OPP

of the inspector furnishing the par
ents with the name of a physician to
whom they are urged to take their
child for treatment. Frequently, also,
the inspectors visit is followed by the

ant of many abuses, but it has never
knowingly tolerated an invasion by
private interests of its public schools,

This time, 1t Is only a few hundred
thousand acres of rough land, but
these lands are scattered anon the
home allotments of $500 Indians, and
the Indians prize them for range for
their stock, and will never willingly
give them up.
Congress has the power to open the
lands whether the Indians are willing
or not, but has always deferred more

consent has been obtained; this time
