 Much of the excellent health con- ditions existing throughout the town, can be attributed to the unlimited CO., operation of the local visiting nurses work in the school. Miss Elizabeth Heineman. the nurse in charge, pays visits to the school every Tuesday and Friday mornings On these visits she learns through the teachers of any children who may need attention. These children are examined by Miss Heineman. and. if necessary. are sent to a doctor. Their parents are also advised to consult a physician. How ever. should it be a case where the parents are not in a position to have their child taken to a doctor, Miss Heineman aids as much as possible. There may be children who come to school with sores other wounds. These are attended to by the nurse A report of every child i'll at the school is forwarded to Principal Orrin L. Judd and in turn, an examination of the child is made. They are sent home and the nurse is advised to as- certain their real condition. Few days at school are lost on account of ill- ness. as when the first stages of sick. ness are discovered immediate care
