Work of Public Health Nurse.

For nearly six months Hinsdale has
had a public health nurse, Miss Elsie
Shook, and several families nave availed
themselves of her services. She has
made I54 calls, the receipts from which
have been about $50.

by Red Cross headquarters, Boston.
Near the end of the school year Miss
Shook assisted the doctors in their school
inspection, finding 81 pupils with defec-
tive teeth, 40 pupils with enlarged tom
sils, 20 pupils with very defective vision,
10 pupils with adenoids, three with de-
fectiye hearing, three with defective
breathing, two with orthopedic defects,
one with enlarged glands, one anaemic

least, but many are not complying with
the law, which requires that children be
vaccinated before attending school.
This enterprise is financed by the
local branch of the Red Cross, which
hopes the public will be sufficiently inter
ested to continue the work when the
year for which the branch is respon-

When We Go sWtmn1in,.

Boy! it's great to she'd your oxfords.
And shake your happy rags,
When the summer sun is boiling in the
skyi
And it's swell to trim your toe-nails
On the rocks and river snags,
And TO bid the blistering bank a brave
Good-by.
Follows, we must hit the by-way
That goes winding in and out,
Wriggling right up to the waters, will
low grit,
That's the highway, lads, that S my
way,
That's the road that suits a scout
And bids By-by to troubles, buds and
dirt.
How you dash in, how you splash in!
How you dive in, if you dare:
Oh the happy thrill, the pulse-beat, the
delight:
How your head does split the water:
How your heels do hit the air:
How you vanish, as by magic, out of
sight!
Then you bob up with a SILVER
Gently creeping down your spine,
Like a little tiger-kitten hunting game.
Oh, the culver Of the river
When you SILVER, amt it fine,
Don't it make the bloomin' bath-tub
blush for shame?

After an all-night search in the Con
n~ecticut river three miles from Fitzdale,
the body of Mary King, the 20-year-old
daughter of Philip King, was found, hav-
ing been drowned at 10 o'clock Wednes-
day evening when the automobile in
which she was riding jumped from the
ferry boat into the river Just as Almon
Smith, the ferryman, was starting his
boat from the New Hampshire to the
Vermont side. A party of six from
Fitzdale was returning from Whitefield,
including Mr.. and Mrs. John Lavorgna,
Mr.. Lavorgna's brother George, Mr..
Barnes and another lady, besides Miss
King. John Lavorgna was driving the
car and when the car was located on the
boat he supposed the engine was in neu-
trail, whereas it was in second speed, and
plunged into the river where it was Is
feet deep as 0 as he took his foot off
the clutch. By heroic work the ferryman
saved all the people except Miss King,
who worked in the boarding house of the

Whooping cough is the mean
est" disease that childhood is
heir to. While rarely fatal in
itself, except to children under
two years of age. still it hangs on
so long-the coughing paroxysms
are so violent, preventing proper
sleep and digestion-that when
the disease does disappear it
leaves the child weakened and
run down. In addition the
violent coughing racks and strains
the air passages and after re
covery this irritation frequently
remains.
During this period Of conval-
essence the child should be most
carefully watched until full
strength is restored and the air
passages regain their normal tone.
A prominent authority even goes
so far as to say-"There is more
criminal neglect in connection
with whooping cough than with
any other disease"
While the disease is active,
Vick's VapoRub usually helps to
lessen the violence of the cough
ing, but it is during conval-
escence that Vicks is most val
liable.
