Every detail is explained and, later,
the new nurse is at liberty to call upon
the Public Health Nurse for further
information and help.
Through the ministrations Of the
Red Cross Health Nurse hundreds of
lives are saved every year. Think what
a boon to community Public Health
Nurse really is!
Suppose Typhoid strikes your home
and you do not know what to do for
your sick brother or sister, call the Pu-
bile Health Nurse and let her help you.
If there is no Public Health nurse
in your community you should take
steps to secure one at once. If none is
available. there should be nursing elias.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE


Nearly everyone knows what Bet
ter Babies" week is.
Heralded at first with scorn laugh
ed at by the judgement or by the cynic,
the Better Babies" movement is now
looked to by mothers as a part of the
community life which is invaluable.
You remember the first movement Of
this kind in your community.
Better Babies?" What in Sam Hill
does that mean? How is the Red Cross
going to teach us to have better ba-
bies?'
But it didn't take long for the com
munity to realize what a great good
can accrue from such a movement
Enthusiastically hundreds Of babies
were brought before the committee
of judges. Hundreds of babies walls
rent the air as they were undressed,
weighted and examined by physicians
and trained nurses. But, the babies
walls were soon hushed in the gentle
hands of the Red Cross workers, and
the babies were given back to their
mothers with their records" that is,
the record of their physical health
The Rice belt journal. (Welsh, Calcasieu Parish, La.) 1900-19??, 1920-12-25

whether they weighted the proper
amount, whether their food agreed
with them, whether their teeth were
justright, and, if any serious defects
were discovered, the mothers were
told where they could have these de-
fects corrected.
In other words, it was thorough
medical examination furnished free to
the babies, in order that the future
men and women of the community
could face the world in health and hap
piness. A healthy baby usually means
a healthy child, and a healthy child
usually means a healthy man or
woman. And a healthy man or woman
is one who can cope with the problems
of life and come out on top.
The Better Babies" movement is
only one small part of the great Peace
Time program of the American Red
Cross. If there is Public Health
Nurse in your community it is her
duty and her, privilege to arrange the
yearly Better Babies movement, and
this is only one part Of her work. In
addition, she teaches Home Hygiene
and Care of Sick; it is the Public
Health Nurse who co-Operates with
the doctors of the community in order
that Dental and Medical Inspections
may be arranged in the schools. 1t is
the Red Cross Health Nurse who goes
directly into the home and teaches
the women of the family how to care
for the sick and suffering.
For example-Suppose one of the
family is stricken with typhoid fever,
and no one in the family has ever had
experience in nursing typhoid. The
Public Health Nurse in the community
can be called upon, She arrives with
the doctor or sometimes before the
doctor, and stays there until the case
is thoroughly explained to the member
