At every meeting of the Woman's
Book Club since December 9TH the
problem Of the fi!m show for child
rem has been under discussion. The
nation wide movement for furnish
ing good film for children started in
Louisville through the initiative of
Mrs. Fred Levy, who has written us
and assured us OF her help il this
new undertaking. We do not think
our town is worse than other towns
in this respect, but the fact that the
manager Is in sympathy with the
movement makes US bold to 60 for
word. At an early iste we are 60
ing to have an evening for the child
rem. Will you not give support 10
give our children an evening Of pure
fun, a story from the elaasics and
other educational features? If so
assure Mr.. Duncan of your approval
and later your support by attending.

Report Of County Nurse for February.

Among the various schools visit
ed there have been located over GOO
positive cases Of Irachoma. Trach
oma is q common Infectious disease
of the eyes, which if uncared for will
most likely result in total blindness.
Little have we realized the great dis
aster that will surely overtake our
County and we have been guilty Of
negligence along this line. 1t is
time that we should awaken to these
conditions and join in an effort to
correct the common practices that
are now being employed in the ma
ority Of homes in the County. II
has long since been our custom to
use the common roller towel, the
family wash basin, and in many
cases bed linen that has become
contaminated thru use by one in
fected. Such things are the agen-
cies that carry The disease and
should be dispensed with.
We are striving to better the con-
ditlons that relate to our education,
our agriculture, and our social life,
and meanwhile We are paying but
little attention to our health, the
thing upon which all of these are
based. If 1t is potent to establish a
county tar advanced in educational
lines, if 1t is important to develop a
county which shows evidence of
scientific agriculture, or if it Is de.
sirable to improve our social aetivi-
ties and the conditions OF our com
munitY life, then it is even more
necessary to take some step toward
betterment of those conditions
that affect our health For wears
We have been sympalhlzipg with the
counties Ina; unfortunately lie apar,
from the world due to their location
IN the mountains of Kentucky, blu,
it is better that we turn our words
Of sympathy into deeds of action
and put them into practice IN oul
midst.
