Richards are having he snme work
nav also familiar work ia being con-
Quoted in county wido campaign.
II will bc seen from my explann-
ion of the relations Of the Tnzowcll
Red Cross to tho County Health Unit
that much has depended upon and
much credit is due tho Red Cros for
Ncllring the health work in Tnzowoll
County. Had il not been for the
funds contributed by the Red CroRa
we would have encountered difficult
ties in making up our end Of tho rs-
qurcd budget. therefore, In tho namo
Of the State Board OF Health of which
nm II member. tho nnmo Of the
Board Of Supervisors, tho Medical
Fraternity and the people at lurgs
wish to thank the Red Croaa for
their financial and moral support
given the health work during its
period Of existence.
Now permit mo to como to the
most important part OF my talk
inc future OF the hoalth work. Tho
Lime of nctive service of tho Public
Health Nurse in our field expires to-
day while the remainder of tho Unit
M now finnncicd will end Narch lar
1922. The Board Of Supervisors hnv.
been pctitiOncd to continue tho work
after The expiration of tho praaent
arrangement If In their iudnme,.t
Inc work has been q success--if IL
mas prevented disease-if It hns im,
proved living conditions-if it hoe
snved money. One of tho most m.
poftant things generated through tho
school inspection work is a pronos.
ed dental clinic for tho county. Tbo
records from the inspection OF acbooJ
children show that more than on.
