monthly report Of Miss Henke, county
nurse, yesterday afternoon at 4

fifteen rural schools in southern Lee

able to make return visit. Here

referred to oculists, those having de-
fective teeth were referred to den.
lists, and those having other physical
ills were referred TO their family
physician. In this district Miss Henke
made thirty visits to parents explain
! ing the object of the nursing service
and what it was hoped would be &C
icomplished. On her return visit to
the school a few weeks later she was
most encouraged to note the results
due to the sympathetic cooperation
Iof the parents. In the other fourteen
schools she inspected 3S9 pupils fol-
lowing the same plan as in the Sum
init school. She inspected forty-one
school rooms. noting the lighting and
the ventilation Of the rooms, She
also inspected the buildings and the
Surrounding premises from sanitary
viewpoint, making report OF this In.

Gus schools.

there should be appointed one or
more men or women who are inter-
ested in the public health program,

service committee should meet regu
larly on the second Friday Of every
month at 4 o'clock at the Industrial

ton OF utilization and the coordina-

cies to sign the affiliation blank pro-
vided by the Red Cross.
