Interest in medical inspection OF
schools IS increasing in Oklahoma
The state department OF health is
receiving much encouragement since
its advocacy Of a policy of partial in
spection by teachers in lieu of the
regulation system that should be
employed where facilities are obtain
able.
The idea advanced in this depart
mcnt some days ago has met with the
approval of the state department of
education and the following open let
ter to the public has been issued by
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1913-09-18

Hon. r. II. Wilson, state superin.
tendent of schools
ITO the Public:
"a have just read an article giver
to the press last week by the state
commissioner of health, DR.. j. c
Mahr. and | take this the first op.
portunity of endorsing to the public
this article am persuaded that
! the agitation being waged by the
state health department in behalf Of
the public schools is worth many
| times to the state the cost of sup
/ porting the department. DR.. Mahr
in this article, has set forth the sim
pie methods by which a teacher
may make herself indeed helpful 10
the community.
My office is in the same building
and is on the same floor as that of
Or. Mahr, and ! have frequent oppOr-
tunities to examine the maps of the
state indicating the location of con-
tagious diseases Ii is peculiar that
a large per cetn of the dseasG such
as scarlet fever smallpox, diphthe-
ria, measles, chicken poX, etc, are
more general throughout the state
in the fall than during any other
season of the year ami are largely
confined to children of school age.
These facts, with other information,
lead me to endorse the plan of the
state health department, that all
public schools should be thoroughly
lumigated before the opening Of
school in the fall. II makes no dif-
ference how open the school room
may have been during the summer
The fact that the building has not
been used is sufficient reason that
large number of poisonous germs
collect in such a building, and VIII
prove injurious to the health of the
children. IN many cases the wells are
bad at the opening of school and
too often the school board fails To
have them properly cleaned before
school opens and sometime not at
all.
This has been an extremely dry,
hot summer, and We may naturally
expect a great deal of sickness when
schools begin to opne. For this reas-
on, feel that schools throughout the
state should not open until we have
general rain which will thoroughly
cool the earth and purify the air, or
until the temperature is much lower
than it is at present. In view OF
these conditions, where schools open.
feel that every teacher and super
intendent should exert an unusual cf-
fort TO see that sanitation is good,
the water is pure, and the buildings
thoroughly fumigated. In case OF
unsanitary conditions. impure water,
or other causes which will produce
sickness, the teacher should not hes
itate for one moment to call the at
tention of the county superintendent
of schools and the county superb
tendent of health at the same time
"In this connection, | desire to
also mention the fact that Superin-
tendent Newell of Chickasha is pro-
noting a scheme which, if adopted
generally throughout the state, will
add materially to the welfare of the
children of the public schools. The
old saying that "A stitch in time
saves nine" was never truer than
beginning in time to prevent contagi-
Gus disease among school children.
"Respectfully submitted,
"R. H. WILSON,
state Superintendent of Public IN

LOCAL CHURCH
TO Be AIDED BY
MUSIC FESTIVAL
ELABORATE AFFAIR WILL BE
HELD AT NEVADA THEATER
EVENING OF JUNE 12.

One of the most important events
in the musical history of Tonopah
will be the grand festival to be given
in the Nevada theater on the mig
of June II, when large chorus as
sisted by several soloists and an
orchestra will render some of the
most ambitious music of the old
master composers. Mozarts Gloria
from the 18th Mass and Haydn's
Heavens are Telling" from the
Creation" and Handers "Hallelu.
iah Chorus" from the Messiah" are
some of the numbers to be given.
A male choir will sing Nevin's
Rosary and the Soldiers Chorus"
from Faust" and other numbers.
Solos and readings by prominent To-
cal singers and elocutionists will
complete the program which will be
announced in full in a few days.
Tickets will soon be placed on sale
lat a reasonable price Of admission
and the public is assured a first
class program OF varied and pleasing
nature. Such musical are not often
attempted in small localities such
as Tonopah, where trained singers
are not as common as in larger com.
munities, and the fact that such a
feat is being accomplished is due
to the love of good music and abil-
ity and sticktoitiveness Of the local
people who have sacrificed Their
time in the last few weeks to make
this notable and long to be re-
0 membered event. The perseverance
in the face of obstacles now over
come should commend itself to the
people Of Tonopah and liberal pat
ronage result therefrom.

paratively large scole is about to be-
gin. One man at Winnemucca has
bought tractor costing $500 and
proposes TO break ground on 1000
acres, sink wells and cultivate the
whole area by pumping. He esti-
mates that the tractor will bore
wells, do all the work of the farm
and pump water by moving it around
from section to section, using porta-
BILE pipes TO convey the water to the
required quarter. He has sunk ex-
,erimental wells and knows what he
doing. Another man at Elko has
brought his own family and three
5thers from Lenox, Iowa, and he is
going TO farm with steam plows.
