IN THE INTEREST
= Of PUBLIC HEALTH

Is Garfield county, under the super
vision Of the Red Cross, to be supplied
with public health nurse, whose duty
ii will be to advise and council and to
aid our people, especially along pre-
ventative lines, in a matter of preserv-
ing the public health?
We know that communities frequent
ly suffer through lack of wholesome ad-
wise and cooperation, which need might
be supplied through the officer in ques-
ton. Ottentimes epidemics may be
prevented or disease may be modified
through careful attention to sanitary
conditions or the proper handling of an
cpidcric in its inception.
the minimizing of "ontagion and many
other factors tha, "nter into the ques-
tiom of tine lealth Of the community
may be handled to advantage through
this program of Red Gross endeavor.
Glenwood was visited this week by
Miss Olive Chapman of the Mountain
Division of the Red Cross at Denver.
She explained that the Red Cross had
planned on taking up this important
work sooner, but on account of the war
it was put aside for the great task Of
caring for the needs of the men fight.
ing for democracy. Now that the war
is over and the Red Cross war work
has decreased rapidly, a great effort
is being made to give to the communi'
ties such assistance as the organization
feels is greatly needed.
The public health nurse may be one
of four factors, or combination Of
them all. A visiting nurse visits the
homes and gives mothers advice on
home nursing and the care of children;
child nurse, whose especial duty it is
to teach child welfare; an industrial
nurse is usually employed by mining,
manufacturing or other industrial cor
porat.ons to look after the welfare Of
its employees and hold classes and give
instructions in first aid so that disas-
trous results from accidents may be
minimized as much AZ possible; a
school nurse is usually employed by
the school to give information along
the lines of hygiene. This includes ad-
vice on the care Of the teeth, the use
of the eyes, bathing, hours of sleep and
other questions of habit.
Upon examination it has been found
that from so to rs per cent Of the
60 100000 school children in the United
States are physically deficient in one
respect or another. There must bs

The Republican appointee then brought
custer proceedings, but lost when Dis
trict Judge J. E. Rizer sustained the
position taken by Mr.. Chew.
The supreme court yesterday reversed
the Judgment of the trial court, there
by inducting Mr.. Beach into office. The

Governor Carlson,
Mr. Dickson took an examination
along with Mr.. Beach, and his appoint
ment is similar to the events which
transpired in the case of the Pueblo
engineer.
Former Governor Gunter sent the
name of William Fl. Lea. Democrat,
to the senate for confirmation day or
two before the executive retired from
office. Later Governor Shoup tried to
recall the appointment, but the senate
refused to accede to the wish and con-
firmed Mr.. Lea.

civil service commission since the 1915
law went into effect was for irrigation

public health nurse.
1t has been proven that the life of
soldier in the trenches is far safer
than that Of new born baby. By the
health program of the public health
nurse the lives of thousands of infants
and mothers will be saved
Last summer the government request
ed that all babies be weighed and
measured, for the purpose of finding
their defects. This work must be fol
lowed up by something which will help
to overcome these defects. A message
must be carried into the homes, and
the public health nurse is acting as the
messenger,
MISS Chapman s visit mere this
week will be followed up by various
propaganda on the part of the Red
Cross society in the hope that all our
people may become more interested in
this very important movement

HUNTERS OPPOSE
CLOSED SEASON

A committee of local sportsmen who
bill which was passed by the house
recently, called on Senator w. F.
o 'Brien, chairman of the game aud
fish committee in the senate. While
the bill was doubtless intended to pro-
tect game and fish throughout the
state, it is doubted if the proposed
closed season on deer, doves, ETC., will
accomplish the results desired.
The committee was elated to find as
man who is IA practical sportsman
and one who is really in touch and in
sympathy with the sportsmen through
out the state.
DIR. O'Brien produced a stack of let
ters coming from gun clubs, sports
men s associations and from many pri-
vate citizens scattered throughout the
state, with the remark: "These are
from people who really and truly want
TO prolecl ouT Saiie al" Ism, "'' '
one is in favor of the proposed
closed season. "
During the conversation Senator
O 'Brien remarked: "When we close
the season under the present game war
den system, the purpose is to protect
the game, but in reality we are protect
ing only the law violator. Our present
system of game protection is an abso-
lutte failure. This is not the fault ct
our present game commissioner, whom
/ believe to be thoroughly honorable
and conscientious. The fault IS rather
with the system. Our game wardens
should be appointed without regard to
politics. The state game and fish com
missioner should receive $4,000 year
instead of $500 this amount to be
paid from the receipts of the office.
"'Wc should have many more war
dens at larger salaries. At present
Colorado has only SIX paid wardens
with which to r9lice the entire state.
As an advisory board to the game com
missioner, the governor should appoint
five members to he selected by sports
mem s associations or any other repre-
sentative means of selection. These
commissioners should serve without
pay and in the capacity of an advisory
bosyd.
They should have the power of Sc
lccti1g the game wardens through 'uf
the state and TIC power of removing
these wHr6ers sufficient cause. j.
A. McGu,i1. editor OF the Outdoor Lift
has prepared such bill, and it should
| Ic passed. rhc game wardens so Sc
| lectrd should act be selected to serve
in their respective counties wehre they
| ,ave made their l,i me. There she nd
Ne at least cnc real lcme warden II
each county where game is to be pro
tected, and sufficient pay and travel
ing expenses should be allowed that
they may carry on their duties. Willful
neglect of duty should be punishable
by a jail sentence.
at is an undisputed fact that the
game commissioner cannot appoint 8

which he il not resident because .

The Glenwood post., 1919-03-08

sent into county to enforce the law,
and such warden must be withdrawn
"There can be but one reason for
this: namely, to permit the local resi-
dents to have their own ne ghbors as
wardens and thus enable them to have
their meat and to arrest any outsiders
who happen to intrude on their hunt
ing preserves, which preserve is legally
sanctioned. Yet there are senators who
really want to protect the deer and
they advocate closed season for anoth
er six years under this vicious and dis
astrous system.
elf they succeed the deer will be
greatly depleted at the end of six years
Only about 400 deer out of 10000 to
10000 throughout the state were killed
in 1918 by sportsmen during the few
days open season, as against many
thousands that are killed each year by
ranchers and law violators during the
so-called CLOSED season. A few days
open season on bucks with the closed
season rigidly enforced will do more to
protect the deer than perpetual closed
| season which, in effect, is an open sea-
son the year around for the law vio-
lators because of no funds with which
to police the state. There are always
more bucks than needed for propaga
| ton"
Senator o 'Brien further proposed the
forming of a state sportsmen asso-
citation with nominal fee for member
ship, each and every member of said
association to be game warden with
out pay and duty bound to report any
and all violations. Fines for killing
such as deer, sheep, elk, antelope, ETC.,
out of season to be made $500 and
thirty day Jail sentence as a minimum.
Also when person applies for fish
license or a game license there should
be a pledge printed thereon whereby
the signer pledges himself as a sports
man warden not to violate the laws
h.mself and to report any and all vio-
lations which may come to his atten-
ton. Willful failure on his part to do
so should automatically revoke his
license.
Senator o 'Brien furthered his re-
marks by citing the game laws of
Maine, Massachusetts,, New York., Con
necticut, Pennsylvania and various
other states. He said: "Why, those
states have five hunters to our one, yet
they have three times as many deer as
we have in Colorado and they have the
open season every year. How do they
account for it? They have real game
wardens who hale into court all vio-
lators. They have real penalties and
the laws are drafted by real sportsmcn
who want to see the laws respected and
law volators run down and punished.
They have organized and make the
weight of their organization felt.
"We must do the same and while it
may result in few more whitefacel
cattle being butchered for winter
meat it will also result in increasing
our deer and birds fourfold in short
time. We must remember that tue
closed season does not protect the game
under our present warden system and
inadequate funds. Az to the dove, We

An open meeting will soon be held
in which local sportsmen will give their
views before the senators.

HERE'S DOPE ON
SERVICE BUTTON
The Question That Has Been Often
Asked Here Is Answered by the
Recruiting Off,

Those service buttons that are to
be issued all men who served in the
American army during the world war
may be secured by Keokuk men in
the near future, is the cheering word
that has been received here.
Many inquiries had been made
about them since they have begun to
give them out In some of the larger
cities. but no authentic information
could be learned about them here.
Sergeant Hardin, who is at the
recruiting station at the postoffice
this week. stated this morning that
they will be distributed through the
recruiting office.
But that will be some time In the
future, for they are not made yet The
Buttons for this district are to come
from the Rock Island arsenal, and it
Is behind on its schedule a little bit.
When they finally do come out with
them, they will be issued at the Bur
lington office upon the presentation Of
the discharge certificates.
II the Keokuk office is opened
again, which is very probable, they
may also be secured here at that time.
Announcement will be made in the
newspapers when the final arrange
ments are made for this district.

BUDGET FOR YEAR MADE
Part Of the Tax Goes Into the Sinking
Fund to Pay OF the Bonds Out
stadins When They Be-
como Due.

That the tax levy for the keokuK
school district for next year be $l2o..
coo was determined by the board OF
education at special meeting at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The finance committee. headed oy
John A. Dunlap had made budget
carefully and reported it's recommen-
dations.
Every item was discussed thorouhg-
" by the members of the board. The
levy is an increase over last year OF
$50 900 which covers the increase OF
salaries already made in teachers and
janitors contracts.
The board passed the formal resolu-
ton making the levy which will be
certified to the county auditor by
Secretary Frederic c. Smith at once
The levies by funds were as fol-
lows:
General fund ............. $ilU,VuU

fund is partly used to pay interest on
the bonds.

DENVER, Colo, July 23-Julian r.
Moore, presiding Judge Of the district
court for the city Of Denver, is OF the
opinion that the war has had absolute
ly no effect upon the filing Of divorce
cases insofar as the city Of Denver is
concerned. No cases have been called
to his attention or come under his
observation which would indicate that
domestic infehcity had been induced
by reason Of the soldiers absence

at the conditions which obtained upon
their return from the service.

of divorces allowing for the normal
increase in the population in his juris-
,aiction.
