REDWOOD co. PUBLIC HEALTH
ASSOCIATION MAKES GOOD
HEALTH PLANS

Al general health survey Of the
county is being made by the Redwood
County Public Health Association.
Every voting precinct III the county
is represented In the association by
q director who has charge of the work
Of making this survey IN his own dis
trict. Survey cards are being distri-
buted to all households by the direc-
tors or their representatives turnout
the country This method provides
q means for each family and house
hold to contribute its own part OF the
county health survey.
Every successful business is based
on definite knowledge of the needs
OF the patrons of that particular en-
terprise. The business of the Coun-
tv Public Health Association is the
improving Of the general health Of its
patrons. who are the citizens of the
county. Our association aims to inn
prove the health Of its patrons by COM
batting tuberculosis, preventing or
checking epidemics and the spread Of
yeneral diseases. and discovering and
aiding to correct the physical defects
OF children. through educating every
person of the county in health.
Before this can be undertaken as a
business it must have business
foundation, knowledge Of the line
of work which will be most needed,
and how it can be undertaken best.
An accurate health survey giving the
exact status Of the county's health
furnishes the proper foundation OF
public health work.
The head of each household is urg-
ed to fiji out carefully the. survey card
and by SO doing help our Public Health

sarv information TO continue further
health work intelligently Katherine

Shall Redwood County,
Abandon These Buildings?
Rurnors Dropped;
Wabasso Seeks to
Stir Up Hatred

If the campaign that Wabasso is
conducting IN an effort to have the
county seat moved to their town is a
clean one then we would be interest
ed In knowing what the Wabasso
boomers would consider a dirty one.
This week they do not even attempt
to quote figures or any argument
that would interest a taxpaying voter
but devote the whole page to an eff
fort to stir up hatred against Red
wood Falls.
There statement that Bird Island has
kept pace with eff not outstripped
Olivia" is not born out by the census
taker. Olivia had population Of
$50 and Bird Island 931 in 1910.
Their argument that the title to the
present site does not revert to the
donors is an apparent misrepresenta-
ton according to an opinion given by
Assistant Attorney General Mark
ham. Perhaps WabassO has q better
lawyer than the attorney general.
However, their challenge was accept
ed and the answer is In direct opposi-
ton to their statement.
Their statement that Redwood
Falls bushes men who owned t1ae
local telephone line refused to sell TO
the farmers is not borne out by de-
veIopments as stock is now being sold
to anyone who wants it to keep the
company d private one. How much
stock will Wabasso buy
The vicious" attack upon Com
missioner Arends they speak of was a
question asked by Mr.. Gold at Bel
view a few weeks ago and while q
number Of Wabasso men were present
and were invited to answer it not one
of them uttered word. Evidently
the surnlise made by Mr.. Gold was
correct.
And in winding up their argument
they rather spill the beans for them
selves as they state you should vote
for Wabasso to in short, show these
gentlemen from Redwood Falls
where to get off at, and we might
add give Wabasso chance to show
you where to get off at.-Belview

the organization of social service work
in communities where it has not al
