Is The Army
OF Peace Fit?

II the babies under six years old
were all drafted into the army OF
peace, would one-third of them be re-
jected? The weighing and measuring
test. which is now going on. is find
ing many children VIM 10 not weigh
as much as they should for their
height. The fact that a child Is un-
derweight for his height should be a
danger signal because some OF the
conditions which produce underweight
in children are likely TO develop into
serious defects if not treated In time.
Many of the reflections from the army
were caused by defects which had
have been corrected IL they had been
discovered and cared for then
This weighing and measuring test
will give Canon City a chance to find
otu which of its children are under
weight now. But weighing and meas
uring tests do not last forever. Who
will keep on watching out for the
health Of the children here as the pub
lie school looks out for their mental
progress?
At the Washington conference on
chill dwelfare standards. special prom
inence was given throughout the ses-
sions to what the public health nurse
can do to keep children well. The
conference, after mature deliberatioa.
