With The SCHOOL
NURSE FOR A DAY
Parents Learn Many Points That May
Saw Children Illness and Suffer-
in in Later Life.

The father who was afraid daily
brushing would wear out his children's
teeth, the mother who thought tooth
brushes are new tangled e~xtravagan-
cies, the boy who believed it was not
worth while because "his tools were
all busted" and the little girl who nev-
err manicured her finger nails, but
"just bit the dirty part off," have fall
len victim to the county nurse who
has them irrevocably pledged to good
health habits following her medical
inspection of county schools.
The nurse not only examines the
children and makes recommendations
to the parents for remedial measures
to be carried out under the direction of
the family physician, but she inspects
the school plant to see that it is a
healthful place for boys and girls to
spend five or six hours a day. Armed
with her charts, scales and measures,
she rides across country perhaps twen-
ty-five miles, starting in the early
gray SO that she can note sanitary con-
d%itions, drinking water containers, ia
cilities for washing hands, disposal Of
wraps and rubbers, hot lunch equip
ment, heating plant, ventilation, light
ing and general cleanliness and order
before the children arrive.
A little talk which makes the health
game appear a pleasure, disarms anx-
ious youngsters who associate nurses,
as doctors and dentists, with painful
experiences. Rural school children
range from six to fifteen, and some of
them cannot understand English very
well, SO the nurse has to explain her
mission simply.
She examines them in order Of their
age, measuring them, weighing them
and comparing the result with the
table which tells what the normal child
of given age and height should weigh.
Underweight, due to faulty diet, is
so prevalent that it runs as high as
68 per cent in some counties. In such
cases the nurse recommends the SUBJ
stitution of cereals, toast and cocoa
for a breakfast of pancakes and cof-
fee.
Adenoids, enlarged neck glands, de-
cayed teeth, threatened Deafness, due
to some focus Of infection, are COM
mon defects which are easy to cor
rect if taken in time. Rural school
contests, awarding banners to the
schools having the greatest percentage
of corrected defects, will show the
Improvement made during the inter-
val between the fall and spring medi-
cal inspection.
Parents notices, which list the ply
steal record of each child examined,
together with the teacher to be mailed
to the home. Because parents are vi
tally concerned with the welfare of
their children they value the scientific
work of the county nurse who calls
their attention to conditions which are
otherwise undetected, who supports
the school teacher in health education
and who arouses in the boys and girls
themselves the feeling that good
health is a game in which each one
can be a champion.

oneer of the state and has taken an
active part in politics for many years.
He has received many commenda-
tions for his course in seeking the
nomination and has issued a platform
on which he will stand. He favors
arbitration as opposed to strikes, and
good wages for workmen. A reduc-
ton in the high cost of living, but not
in the standards of living. Improve
ment of schools and adequate means
for their support, and endorsement of
deportation of radicals who would
work harm to the government, while
retaining freedom of speech and of
press are his chief planks.

TEACH WOMEN HOW TO VOTE.

Schools of citizenship for women,
purpose of which is to give general
instruction to women in government
al matters and in the policies Of the
various existing political parties, are
a recent addition to the educational
work of the Young Women's Chris
ton Associations throughout the
country. While women's clubs every
where are tackling the subject, the
Y. w. c. A. courses are reaching the
younger women in the colleges, in
business and industry. Instruction is
non-partisan, setting forth the pol
icies and platforms of all existing par
ties and the methods for exercising the
rights of citizenship.

'EVANGELINE' FILM IS
A GENUINE TREAT

"Evangeline" the William Fox mo-
ton picture version of Henry Wads-
worth Longfellow's immortal poem,
which will be shown at the Orpheum
theatre June 2 and 3, is unquestion-
ably the finest film achievement seen
here in a long time.
It's outstanding features are it fl
deity to the poem, the wondrous beau
ty of many of it's scenes and the ex-
~ceptionally capable Interpretation of
the title role by Miriam Cooper, long
a ~favorite film actress here.

native land, with their subsequent

Y. w. C. A. OPENS IN OLD SALOON
An old saloon in the Italian Sec
ton of New York has recently been
taken over by the Y. W. C. A., and
turned into a community center for
Italian women and girls. The brown
woodwork has been painted blue and
lively chintz has been hung at the
windows. The old place is hardly rec
ognizable. This center is being used
during the day as a nursery for chill
dren whose mothers are working, fol
a babies clinic, and for mothers club
meetings; in the evenings for social
times for the girls who work during
the day.

The first time Grant came in sight
Of the enemy in the Civil war he frank
ly tells us that his heart jumped into
his throat IT had not the moral
courage" he said, "to halt and con-
slider what to do; kept right on"
That is the whole story of how
Grant got to Appomattox he kept
right on. Starting without friend
Mt his back, and with only n long, un-
broken trail Of disappolntments be-
hind him, he never asked for promo
ton, an assignment or afavor, yet this
unnmbitious man rose to be general
in chief.
No conQueror ever was higher souled
than Grant at Appomattox. Sad
and depressed. as he tells us, Mt
the downfall Of valiant foe, he met
Lee as If that fOeman in war were q
ncighbor In trouble.
When he became president it was
Grants misfortune to know no one ex-
cept his associates in the war; The
Self-respecting among them kept away
from him. But the self-seekers and
the camp followers crowded about a
man who never forgot and never dis.

came bearing Greek gift, and Sena-
tor Charles Summer spoke scornfllly
OF the administration as q "gift en-
terprlse."
The many scandals Of the admins
trntion were mostly traceable to the
betrayal Of Grants childlilse conf
dence In unworthy friends. "Black
Friday" in Wall street cast It's
shadow on his family circle itself.

presidents private secretary. A mem
ber Of the cabinet was impeached for
squalid transactions, but by accepting
his resignation Grant let him dodge
the conviction.
a liberal section Of distinguished
Republicans revolted against Grants
election to second term, but they
were mostly leaders without follow
ers. The popular revolt did net come
until the paD;c Of 1878 had plunged
the county into six years of hard
times, Lad n tidal wave in the, cleo
tlon OF 1874 swept the Democrats
into control OF the house.
