pose for the conducting of
these classes. After her class
work is finished at Clarendon
she will then go to Brinkley
where similar classes will be
taught, from there she will go

place in which to live.
The Red Cross hopes by the
aid of the plan outlined above
that every sick person will have
the services of someone compe-
tent to wait upon the sick; that
prenatal instruction and ad-
vice will be given in every case |
where desired; that every new
born baby will be inspected and
the mother when necessary will
be given instruction in the care
of each child, and the attempt |
be made to have each child re-
curing special attention treat
ed by a physician; that every
child of less than school. age
will be examined; that every
school child shall undergo a
physical examination at least
once a year, and that all cases
of tuberculosis will be discOv-
cred and given nursing care.
The Red Cross has funds suf-
ficient on hands to conduct this
work for a period of twelve
months, and the Executive
Committee of the Chapter be-
lieves that after this work has
been carried on in this county
for twelve months that it can
be kept up either through the
medium of the Quorum Court
or by voluntarily subscriptions.
In this connection we desire
to call attention of the public
to the fact that the Arkansas
Public Health Association last
year sent q trained nurse to
Clarendon. She discovered that
a large percentage of the chill
dren suffered with diseased
adenoids and tonsils and in
each instance she sent a card
to the parent of the child SO
diseased informing them of the
condition OF the child and re-
questing that a physician treat
the child to remove the diseaS-
ed condition. In some instances
the parent followed this advice,
in most instances the card was
thrown aside and no attention
paid to it. At present we have
diptheria in our town and all
public schools have been clos.
ed down, and all mothers and
fathers of the town are anxious
over the health of their little
one by reason Of presence of
this disease. Children with dis
eased tonsils, as physicians will
inform you are more subject to
this disease and are more sus-
ceptible to infection from the
diptheria bacilli than children
whose tOnsils are healthy.
We have no law which COM
pels parents to have their chill
dren operated upon for the pur-
pose of removing diseased ton
sils and adenoids, but we
should have, as it is unfair to
the child to have this condition
continue which will be a men
ace to it's health and decoration
to its growth, and cause it to
be a defective man or woman
when a simple operation will
remove the cause and prevent
suffering in future years.
We wish to say in regard to
performance of these opera
tons that the County Chair
man has consulted with a num-
Der of physicians in the county
and each physician consulted
has agreed where the parent is
unable to pay for these opera
tons that the operations will
be performed free of charge.
The County Medical Society
has been called upon by the
Chairman on another occasion
to contribute to theis welfare
work and has at all times found
them willing and ready to CO.
