ROADS HANDICAP
 CHILD WELFARE
Dr. Bradley and Assistants Can eel Dates at BOdcaw and Sut- ton Because of DeplOrable Condition of Highways.

Nevada county's disgraceful roads have scored another victory to help place us in the class with other ne- glected counties. And this victory for our highways" is the cause of disappointing the eager mothers around Bodcaw and Sutton who have been waiting so patiently until the Child Welfare Special could get there that they might have their little ones examined for the children's future safety. Pathetic to relate, these low ing mothers must fOrego the realiza- tion of their hopes of insuring the future health of their children through the expert and valuable ad- vice of Dr. Frances Sage Bradley. Not because the Special is too busy | to go, but because the roads will not permit the passage of the truck over Cor through) them. The special is now in the repair show here, having had part of the underbody torn away travelling Gin" one of the county roads Dr. Bradley stated this morning that she and her assistants will not be able to keep any ether dates in the county save Emmet, at which place they will be next Monday, leaving Tuesday for Columbia county.
 Places visited in the county to date have received the special with an eagerness which is really commend able, and Dr. Bradley is very en- thusiastic over the interest being manifested by the rural population in the introductory child welfare work. An incomplete report published in The News few days ago stated that 1 90 children were examined in Pres colt, but the revised figures show that IF tots passed under the expert eye of Dr. Bradley during the stay of the Special here. At Boughton in less than eight hours, 32 children were examined and at Laneburg on Tuesday 30 were passed on, while 31 were fortunate enough to be admitted at Rosston yesterday
 At each of these places Dr. Brad ley said large number were turned away and they were only able to ex- anime one child in each family, be- cause of the exceptional response to tho coll for avo m tion of tho obil dren, mothers and fathers bringing the entire family to the place where the big truck had parked until the scene resembled small country fair.

Dr. Bradley Givec Detailed Re- port of Children Examined to Date in Nevada County by Child Welfare Special.

An interesting insight on the con- dition of the average child of pre- school age in towns visited by the Health on Wheels" in charge of Dr. Frances Sage Bradley, can be had by a study of the following data pre- pared for the Daily News by Miss Ruth Dawkins, secretary to Dr. Brad ley. The figures are taken from the reports of Dr. Bradley on children eX- amined at Prescott, Boughton, Lane burg and Rosston, and will probably be alarming to some, surprising to others, but quite interesting to all:

The main points of his ad Rrpss were explained by the use of .hart When he stated in the course Nj his talk that the situation from |busness viewpoint is not at all dis 4urbing and the crisis in business had hassed and that wholesalers and re- BaIers should return to quick sales md reasonable profits the guests &heered him to the echo.
