To Guard Students Health.

Madison, Sept. 10.-Health supervi-
sion of school children, especially in
rural districts, will be recommended
for adoption generally throughout the
state during the school year now be-
ginning. Contrary to common belief,
country school children are less
healthy than city children of school
| age, The army examinations confirm
ed this fact. The percentage Of men
| rejected as unfit for military service
because of physical defects has been
considerably larger among men from
rural districts than among city resi-
! dents. Health authorities are under
taking to remedy this fault by encour-
aging the introduction of school health
supervision. The United States is
said to be behind most European coun-
tries in provisions for the health Of
| schOOlchildren. In this country, while
! many Of the city schools have adopted
| health measures most Of the rural
| schools have none, and they appear
| to need them most. No comprehensive
| survey of rural school conditions has
ever been made in Wisconsin. AS an
| evidence of what such Il survey may
| be expected to Uncover, however, the
state board of health quotes from a re-
| port Of an inspection Of one rural
school by a deputy state health officer
"Twenty-nine children in the school
were examined TWenty-one had en-

fective teeth and five with defective
