i TOWNS EMPLOY VISITING
!. ~ NURSES

Ewenty-six Minnesota towns, in ad-
dition to the three large cities, Min
neapo1is, St. Paul and Duluth, are en-
ploying visiting nurses all the year,
says Or. I. j. Murphy of the Mime
sofa Public Health association. This
includes most of the cities above
5000 in population, and few towns
below 1900 have visiting nurses for
y considerable tine. Iii towns of over
5000 population could employ a visit
ing nurse to advantage the entire
year, DR.. Murphy says, and smaller
towns could group with other COM
mnnities in getting nurse. In many
parts OF the state no doubt county
nurse would be the most practical
plan, he thinks.
'Some cities seem to utilize the
visiting nurses to fuller extent than
others,' DR.. Murphy continues. uIn
Albert Lea, Austin, Brainerd, Eve
leth, Faribault, Owatonna, St. Peter
and South st. Paul, besides the school
work, the nurses do tuberculosis work
and in some cases act as assistant
health officers, contagious disease in
spectors, and truant officers.
'Besides these towns,'' he adds,
land the three large cities, which
employ nurses the year round, fifteen
towns employ nurses during the
school terms. These towns are: Au-
rora, Biwabik, Cloquet, Chisholm,
Gilbert, Hastings, Hiding, Mankato,
Red Wing, Rochester, st. Cloud, Still
water, Virginia, Window and Vino
na.''
In these towns the services of the
nurse should be recognized as being
Of as much value during the summer
months to the embryo school children,
the health association official warns,
as it is to the older children during
the school terms.

IN THE DAYS OF THE STAGE
COACH

Long Prairie Leader: Judge E. A.
Lewis of probate court received a
brief statement yesterday of the death
on April 9 Of Michael O'Connor in the
hospital for insane at Anoka. Back
of this terse notice, however, there is
sufficient to write a history that
would pertain not only to OConno-
himself but to the early struggles of
the people of this section.
It was 40 years ago that O'Conner
was taken away in stage coach-an
adjudged incurable insane person.
The order for his commitment to the
institution at st. reter-there was no
hospital in Anoka at the time-came
from Judge of Probate William
o'Brien. 1t was in 1916: 0'Connor
had been resident Of Reynolds
township.
Because of the fact that there was
no railroad it was necessary to make
the trip to st. Cloud overland in a
stage coach. It required three days
in which to make the trip and cost
the county $500. c. E. Harkens,
who was afterwards clerk of court ::or
Todd county for number Of years,
took the patient to .he St. Peter in
stitution.
Mr.. Harkens, upon his return, sub
mitted detailed expense account of
the trip. It was shown that 60 cents
had been spent for tobacco for the pa
tient, indicating that the patient on
sumed 20 cents worth each day. The
report Of Mr.. Harkens also showed
that the railroad fare was $3.55 for
one person from St. Cloud to St. Paul.
The fare from Long Prairie % st.
Paul, twice the distance, is now but
$2.85. The two-cenr rate was evi-
IDENTIFY not in effect at that time.
The old reports of the case also
show that one physician was neces-
sary in adjudging patients insane at
the time, whereas it is now necessary
that three sit in judgment. DR.. W.
H. Ewing gave testimony on O'Con-
nor's case. He WAS one of the first
physicians in this section Of the coun-
try. O'Connor was taken from St.
Peter to Fergus Falls and from that
institution to Anoka. He was the
second patient to be sent from this
county to an insane hospital. O'Con-
nor was about 20 Gears of age and
was born in Ireland.
