HEALTH EDUCATION
 CONFERENCE

The Young Women's Christian asso- citation has been holding a series of health education conferences this fall, to which the yhave invited Young Women's Christian association physi- cal directors and women physicians from all cities of the United States. Miss Lfllie May Wolfram, physical di- rector of the Birmingham Young Wom- ans Christian association has just re- turned from the conference held from December l to 6.
 Miss Wolfram says the most inter- esting feature of this conference was the study of health center which was established in New York by the buAeau of social education of the YoAng Woman's Christian association in August. 1919. The staff consists of bhysfcal directors and women physi- cians. The center is open to any girl or woman in New York city, and 1t has been running at full capacity since September. Engageme are book ed weeks in advance, and the growing in terest shows that our girls want to know how to become healthy and stay healthy.
 When girl reports at the health center the doctor investigates her per sonal and family health history, her habits of sleep, diet, clothing, e1imina- tion, bathing. the condition of her heart, lungs, nose. throat, etc. The girl is then given instruction when ever necessary as to the care of her skin. her diet. her food tube. her nerves, etc, and she is sent to the physical director
 The physical director next examines her to determine her height, weight, muscle strength, lung capacity, etc. Next her posture is noted and recorded. Ihen her feet are examined for pro- nation, weak arches, pinched toes,

corns, bunions, and callouses. She is carefully instructed how to hold the body in correct posture. now to walk with the toes straight ahead. and prop CT shoes are recommended for her Each girl is graded according to her condition and is told how she can raise her grade This gives her something definite to work toward and makes the work very interesting.
 Some of the girls are recommended to the gymnasium for general work but most of them are given a list of individual exercises which are super vised once a week at the center and then carried out every day at home.
 The gymnasium at the center always presents an interesting picture, being full of girls, each taking her own ex- ercise before a mirror on n.s
 bench or other appartus for lateral curvature, flat chest, constipation nervous tension, dysm enorhoea, weak feet or some other hindrance to health. When the girls condition is 'suffi- ciently improved she is referred to her own gymnasium for class work. This lis only part of the health center pro gramme, as through lectures, camping trips. hikes, etc, they are learning that thereal meaning of health is that condition of being that gives us the power to get the best out of life.
 The purpose of these conferences is to introduce into each community the health center idea and to convince each girl that health Is her rightful heritage and is most necessary to her success in life. Of course it will not be possible to have health centers in all cities. but it will be possible to carry out some part of this work in every gymnasium.
