HARTFORD, KY. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10 1920
HEALTH

The Red Cross Chapter of Ohio
County has endeavored during the
past months to make a partial COM
nunitl study OF living conditions
among the people of the county.
This has been done with the idea Of
nnding out the greatest need of the
communities so the Red Cross Chap
ter may intelligently decide upon
some plan for bettering the condi-
tions. The study was made in 12
Of the thrity-two voting precincts of
the county some mining counties
and some agricultural The sub
jscts covered were health, santa
ton, education, recreation, unstable
families and religion. This study
covers the past twelve months.
A study of health conditions in
the IL precincts shows that there
are quite a number Of crippled
children. or this there are eigh-
teen for whom nothing is being done
to care them. Should the Red
Cross Chapter OF Ohio County de-
eide to enlarge its work along
health lines, the secretary could
make arrangements with the Child
rsn's Free Hospital of Louisville to
place their children under fourteen
years of age for free treatment.
Some of the best surgeons and doe
tors of Louisville treat the child
rem who are placed here.
In only two precincts OF the coun-
l'ty is there medical inspection Of
school children and no dental IL
spsction.
There is no systematic instruc-
tion given mcthers in the care OF ba-
biss and in the proper feeding and
clothing of children. The only care
given farmers wives during conhne-
ment is by physicians or midwivaa
trained nursing service being al
most entirely lacking. There is
almost no prenatal instruction given
to mothers. AS result of this
there is large percentage Of deaths
CT infants from premature birth and
other preventable causes.
In one section OF Ohio County,
the study indicates that there are
a great many cases Of trachOma or
sranulated eyelids. This is serious
as the disease if not treated will
finally make the sufferer blind. 1t
is not generally known to the pub
lie that there is at Greenville, Ky. a
hospital FOR trachoma which was es-
tablished and is maintained by the
United States government. There
is a trachoma specialist and two
trained nurses in charge and any
patient anywhere may go there and
receive free treatment, room and
beard. Therefore, the only expense
weVld be train fare.
The facts stated above indicate
that there is a great need for well
fare nurse in Ohio County. A Red
Cross nurse placed in the county
would inspect school children. teach
mothers in the care of children, as
sist the physicians with the most
sinsult operate and confinement
esses. visit patieNts suffering from
tuberculosis and other contagious
diseases, and be of assistance to the
pablic in innumerable ways.

WOMAN RESCUED BY DOG

Hopkinsville, Ky, March 9.-To
the sagacity of an ordinary cur dog
on the farm of ]. H. Pyle, of North
Christian, Mrs. Nancy Smith, so.
owes her life.
Enroute from her home to Mr..
Pyie's fora neighborly visit, Mrs.
Smith stumbled and fell while pass
ing through a woodland and was
, unable to regain her feet. She lay
there for three days and nights and
part of the fourth day. The tenn
perature was anything but pleasant
and one day the rain fell almost
without cessation. On the fourth
day the dog attracted Mrs. Pyie's at
tention by his unusual actions and
finally Mr.. Pyle decided to follow
him.
The dog led him straight to Mrs.
Smith, whom he had discovered and
evidently sensed her predicament.
The aged woman was taken home,
pat to bed and given every atten-
tion. She is threatened with pneu-
monia, bat It is believed she has a
good chance to recover despite the
terrible exposure she underwent.
Nearby where she lay there was
q grapevine, which is considerably
worn by Mrs. Smiths hands as she
grasped it trying to pull to her feet.

WILDCATS AND TROUT

You cant get orc except in an ore vein, any m re than you can get trout except in trout stream.
 Hold on, We hear someone remark ''how about catching trout in lakes?"
 Very well. we will admit the conten- ton, and submit that ore is also some times found in deposits, such as those occurring in the Granby mine at Anyox where map of the orebodies looks like the picture of huge hill of potatoes. But for the sake of argument, let's let the first statement stand.
 Listen to the meowing of the wild cater:
 ''Bill Jones has a fine showing of ore. Our property is only mile from Bill Jones', the herefore we have just as good chance to strike ore as Bill had
 He might just as well say: Bill Jones caught fine mess of trout ln Cascade creek. We have property only mile away from Cascade creek, there fore we have just as good chance to catch fine mess of trout as Bill had. !"
 Sounds idiotic, doesn't it? But it is no more idiotic than most of the wild catter's statements.
 Trouble is, the public in general is more ignorant than the wildcatter on the subject of mining
 The public schools teach all sorts of useless stuff, cramming the innocent pupils heads with lot of rot that will be of no more use to them than the Golden Ru is to a wildcatter. If the wise fools who dictate what the rising generation shall study, were not totally ignorant themselves on all matters per taining to mining, they would provide for simple course on ineraiogy in the public schools. The subject is fas- cinating and the pupils would enjoy it. besides fortifying themselves against being vi timized in later years by the wildcatter.

OLDlNDIANHISTORY
A. McG. BEEpE

In old times, and even since I've
known the western Sioux, old men
with fame and prestige gained in war
would, in short and eloquent talks
in public, exhort younger men about
as follows: Peace is good. War is
grief. War is seldom, unless large
nations are unreasonable, for small
nations are ever mindful of justice,
because they are weak, and 80 are
reasonable. Diligence in acquiring
NATURES boons gives holy joy. War
fills the mind with injustice which
is evil. And then, with startling
change Of poise and facial mood in
dicating the note Of fear they would
tell how the hazards of war might
bring and often had brought de.
struction to a nation even as a tall
tree struck by lightning is shattered,
while with the fall ola people the
fame Of old men, one-time victors,
becomes like fallen leaves tossing III
the wind.
Then the young men, by them.
selves alone, would say:-O yes,
Sioux County pioneer. (Fort Yates, Sioux County, N.D.) 1914-1929, 1920-12-09

these men have their fame already
gained, and by wars not always
necessary, and 30 they want peace
lest disaster by war may harm our
nationzCand destroy their own faa4e.
If too many men have fame it may
lessen their exclusive fame. They
are wise (sarcastically toned)
Al a recent gathering of large bu-
siness men speakers who have made
their fortunes already eloquently
plead far contentment with small
profits, from now on, lest over-greed
continued may destroy all classes,
with no Abrams bosom left for any
class, etc. Press reports do not
tell US what the younger aspirants for
fortunes said, by themselves alone.
The parrallism is complete. and
is just one Of scores Of similar par
rallisms that could be cited.
Once inside of the Indians blan.
ket and the Whiteman's .doublet
