American Army showed how much it
is needed in this country. About one
third of the xnen were rejected be-
cause of poor health and physical de-
fects, many of which could have been
corrected if they had been discovered
when they were children.
By means of school nursing every
child has n physical examination
made by doctor or nurse. If defects
such as poor eye sight, teeth, tonsils
and aednoids, to mention few, are
found the parents are notified. If
necessary the nurse helps them to
find ways and means of having them
corrected. Not only are the children
inspected but also the school build
ing and premises to see that they
meet standard requirements. With
the cooperation of the teachers the
children are taught how to be healthy
and the principals of personal and
home hygien.
1t has been found that adequate
school nursing also prevents to Il
large extent the outbreak and spread
of communicable diseases.
Every child should have not only
an equal chance for education but
an equal chance for health.

Of all the mining towns have
ever known this is most to be de-

than the average. The location is of

ing of the tenants. hear of no
trouble in the mines near this place.
The mine owners know what hui
man sympathy is, and help the
afflicted and unfortunate.
Jones, for one good act should
never be forgotten. Last year he
sent dentists here to do the necessary
work, in their line, for all the child
rem in this town. A few months ago
he sent to see what repairs were
needed, and what new work should
be done. Last year the dentists We're
kept here for six weeks, on the child
rens teeth. This cost something. A
short time ago n man, injured in
the mines, who had received COM
pensation; wished to go to hospl-
tai, Mr.. Jones handed $4,000 to him.
This same gentleman has built par
sonages, churches, school houses
and is now building n large school
house with hall above, for the
colored people. Also, sends children
of this community, not related to
him, off to school and colleges. Has
built road from Pocahontas to

But why continue? Enough has
been written to show that sympathy

upon the earth, so why despair?
