one of the only ways in which to To-

doctors should cooperate to curb the
disease

SCHOOL NURSE.

Bemidji is threatened with a
serious epidemic of diphtheria
because it has no scohol nurse.
A school nurse is an impera-
tive necessity. for safeguarding
the physical welfare of school
children. In this case a nurse
could in all possibility have To-
Gated the cases in the various
grades before the entire school
was exposed to the disease.
Last spring Bemidji had
pol nurse and excellent re-
! were secured. The nurse
was secured through the sale of
Red Cross Seals. This year Be-
midi can again secure the nurse
if $4,000 seals are sold. It is the
duty of every citizen to buy his
share, to see that Bemidji gets
the nurse.
But action should be taken
Immediately.
Bemidji needs the nurse now
to assist in exterminating. the
disease which has already got
ten a foothold in the city.
The nurse should be secured
at once.
Citizens, fathers and mothers,
should take immediate action to
see that such nurse is hired to
protect the children of this city.
The expenses of the nurse
would not amount to over 800
month, while the expenses of
the disease may not be able to
be figured in dollars.
The object of the school nurse
is to better conditions among
school children, safeguarding
them from disease and render
them healthier, happier and more
vigorous It is founded upon a
recognition of the intimate rela-
tionship between the physical
and mental condition of the chill
dren. What is done for the par
ent is to tell him of the needs of
his child which he might other
wise be ignorant.
A school nurse is necessary
for the future welfare of Be-
midi.
