UNHEALTHY COUNTRY CHILDREN
Better Educational Facilities Urged
for The Country

The American Agriculturist April
IL, 1914, contained the following:
HI. B. Willis, superintendent OF the
Middlesex country schools, has informed
The supervising principals association
that the county schools are lOoslng
their reputation for healthy children.
He said that while most people have an
impression that country children, rails
ed where the air is pure, have better
physical development than the city
children, this is no longer true. City
schools and city homes are so much
better equipped along sanitary and
health-glving lines that the city chill
dren now have an advantage over
country children. He strongly urged
the building of modern schools in tn 9
rural districts. Foreigners who are
going in largely for agriculture have
not proved to be advocates OF up-t0-
date methods Of sanitation.
The Youths Companion, April I6,
1914, contained the following:
Which are healthier-city children or
country children? Can there be more
than one answer? Country children
have the pure ali, and wholesome food,
the exercise, and all the other good
things that farm and village life afford.
The city is the place of the tenements
and the pitful slums, of poverty, neg
lect, and ignorance. OF course, then
country children ale healthier.
That has long been the popular belief,
but the National Council of Education
and American Medical Association have
upset it. Through committees that
have been studying the subject for two
years III all parts of the country, they
make the amazing report that country
school childran are actually from 10
to 20 per cent less healthy than city
school children.
The conclu, ion will astOnish us less
if we stop 10 think how times have
changed. 1t is no longer merely a case
of city life against country life, but a
case of city oversight and care against
rural indifference and neglect. Foul
hundred Of our cities look carefully
after the health of their school children.
They furnish medical inspection, school
nurses. medical and dental clinics, and
buildings designed with proper regard
for lighting, ventilation, and seating.
On the other hand, not one state III
five provides even the simplest medical
inspection for children i'll the country
schools. What is the result? A study
OF twenty-five typical cities and of hun
dreds OF rural districts, chosen al
random in Massachusetts, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Idaho,
shows these percentages: curvature OF
the s~pine,-Owing largely to school
seats,-.I3 in the cities, 3.5 in the coun'
try; ear trouble, l i'll The cities, 5 i'll the
county; eye defects, 81 in The cities

2I.08 in the country; adenoids. 3 < in
the clIles, Il 8 n the country; enlarged
%tonsils, S,S i'll the city, 80 in the co1n-
try.
In II city, for example, 50 per cent
of tile school children have some phvsi-
cal defect serious enough to warrant
medical attention; but in 1881 rural
districts III the same state the percent
age is 70. In the crowd CITY of New
York, less than | per cent of the school
children have any affection of the lungs;
III the rural schools of a Virginia coun-
ty, the percentage is 81. Heart trouble
is twice as prevalent among ountry
school children as among those i'll city
schools; and although 1873 per cent of
the city school children suffer from
poorly nourished bodies, il the country
schools the percentage is 81 2.
The investigation Slows in definite
terms the progress that tile cities are
making and the returns that they get
from tleir investment in medical super.
vision for the schools.
Il What the cities are doing for their
OWL children, the states, as far as con-
ditions permit, should do for the chill
dren in rural districts. Some states
have already made "a good beginning,
but most of them have done little OF
nothing. The rural districts CANNOT
uaaided do the work thoroughly, al.
though many could easily accomplish
! much more than they do now. Above
all, a responsibility too often unrecog-
nized rest on the Individual country
home.

Vudor Porch Shades

Vudor Porch Shades add another room to your
house an outdoor livingroom that you'll like best
of all. Here you can work or play and enjoy the
summer days, secluded from outsiders and free
from hot, stuffy rooms. It's always cool, shady
and comfortable on a "Vudorized" porch. You
never feel shut in for you can see out readily and
get all the air and light you want. Vudor shades
not only cool the porch itself, but every room
opening on the porch-in fact, all the first floor.
Vudor Porch Shades outlast many seasons.
One of their greatest advantages is the fact that
they keep out the sun and the gaze of passersby,
yet admit all the light and air you want. This is
because of the size of this seine Irvine and the
way in which the wooden strips are spaced.

New Laws

The making of new laws for the year
has been completed by Governor Fielder
passing OH the bills left in his hands.
KOt the total of 1928 bills and joint
resolutions introduced in the two houses
the Governor received only 348, and OF
these he approved 276, so that there
will be that many new laws for tile
people to digest-when they get a chance
to learn that they are on the statute
books. Until they do learn they are ex-
pected to know, and should they happen
to violate any of them before they find
out that they exist they will be punished
with the understanding that ignorance is
no excuse under the law.
