Child Welfare

Probably the best and most up-to-
date child welfare exhibit available in
Maine, has recently been purchased
by the Maine Public Health Associa-
ton for use throughout the State at
fairs, conventions, oranges, churches
and other places where people may
gather to interest themselves in pub
lie health work.
The exhibit consists of a score of
sets of splendidly colored posters,
with well -drawn pictures to illus
trate child welfare subjects. each
bearing an appropriate legend. The
posters are designed to interest
grown-ups and children alike and
will certainly attract a crowd wher-
ever they will be shown.
Among the available sets are post
ers on prenatal care, care of the
baby, scouting, tuberculosis as 1t per-
tains to the boys and girls. Health
Crusade and many others. One par
ticularly fascinating series is built
from the old nursery tales of Jack and
the Bean Stalk, Little Red Riding
Hood, Chicken Little, The Three
Bears, and the Sleeping Beauty.
These posters are boldly drawn and
magnificently colored with enough
gorgeous green and red and yellow
to attract the childish gaze. No
legend appears with these posters
which are used as illustrations for a
story telling hour when the health
workers, first with the old story. and
then with a carefully drawn lesson.
will bring home to the boys and girls
the health principles in more strik-
ing way than dryer facts can do.
The posture posters are especially
emphatic in their drawing and
phrasing. while child labor, the value
of supervised play. supervised read
ing, and supervised diet, all are the
subject of some attractive set.
The posters made their first appear
ance at the Exposition at Portland
held in connection with the Maine
Centennial Week celebration there
the latter part of June. They will be
kept permanently at the offices of the
Maine Public Health Association, but
are at the service Of health organiza-
tons and workers in the State who
nave q leSltlIIldte use 1Oi lhciii AOh
display purposes.
Information concerning them can be
obtained from w. A. Harris, execu-
tive secretary of the Maine Public
Health Association. or from the Maine
Department of Health, which will
gladly supplement the exhibit with
lantern slides and lecture material.
Such health material is invaluable in
conducting a health week, or in or
ganizing clinics or health centers, as
by it public interest can be attracted
readily to health issues.
A book descriptive of the entire ex-
hibit and reproducing the posters in
miniature is available at either the
offices of the Maine Public Health As
ISOLATION or the State Department of
Health for reference in choosing the
part of the exhibit particularly de-
sired. The exhibit of cIrse is loaned
free of charge. as are the lantern
slides from the State Department OF
Health.
