Do Ashland people know the value
of school nurse to city health?
tSchool standards are always
raised by the work of an efficient
health nurse" says Miss Thornley,,
assistant professor of physical edu-
cation, at Oregon Agricultural col
lege. Parents are often disappoint-
ed when their child fails to make a
grade, or keep high class standing,
but seldom realize that a physical
condition may be the cause of it. 1t
has been found that two decayed
teeth retard child six months in
school work-adenOids retard him
one year. Miss Thornley, says that
the child who has these defects and
keeps up to grade does so with an
added amount of energy put forth.
Often child considered mentally
deficient is merely suffering from
physical weakness, which causes loss
OF energy and makes him appear dIll
or below average.
Children are carriers of diseases.
Glass rooms are breeding places for
germs. The child himself may not
take the disease, but may carry II TO
some one else. The health nurse in
testing children may find symptoms
and, by treating the child, prevent
the spread of germs. Colds are fire.
quent among school children, and
the germs easily scattered. 1t is
found that instructions on preven-
tion and cure of colds, given by a
health nurse, are effective in de-
creasing the number of colds in
school, thus helping to keep up at
tendance.
Health nursing is comparatively
new, having been successfully start
ed In 1903, but is well worked out
in many large schools.
The follow up" system is a good
one, thinks Miss Thornley,. This
lists children according TO diseases.
For example, diseased tonsils in one
class with special treatment given
to these pupils, records are kept and
noticed.
Letters or suggestions to the par
ents from the health nurse are
meant as kindly, helpful informa-
tion.
Schools such as those at Tacoma,
Wash, have a school health board
vita Il member from the city health
board, medical Inspector, dentist and
nurse. This board gets out health
bulletins, superyises buildings, play
grounds and swimming pools. and
looks after the general health OF
the children in the city.

Ashland Post Is more than pleas
ed with the lyceum course which 1t
is showing to the Ashland public
this winter. The talent so far shown
has been exceptionally good, with
every reason to believe that the two
numbers yet to come will be even
better. Madam Ringsdorf appeared

such rich talent as shown by her,

THE BELLE OF NEW YORK
 OF 1921" AT PARSONS

At Parsons theater. Hartford. for the first four days of this week the attraction will be the Messrs. Lee and ]. J. Shubert's magnificent production of The Belle of New York of 1921.'' The original Belle of New York; was one of the greatest musical comedy successes of the past twenty-five years. It was the first American musical piece to make great hit in London. The present production has been especially made for the New York Winter garden. Differing from other musical comedy successes of two or more decades ago, ''The Belle of New York is really modern in its theme and dialogue. Therefore, but little revision was necessary to bring it right up to the minute. With an eye to giving the public full measure the Messrs. Shubert have interpolated additional songs by Lew Pollock and Al Goodman. As a further guaran- tee of the attractiveness of "The Belle of New York of 1921" all that is necessary to say it has been staged under the personal direction of J. T. Shubert. whose last effort seen in the capital city was The Last Waltz" It is an amazing array of talent that has been brought together, for the pres entation of ''The. Belle of New York Of 1921" Among the more import ant members of the cast will be Doro> thy Ward. Shaun G1enville, Joseph Smith. Charles Dale. Nancy Gibbs. John T. Murray, Florence Rayfield, J. Harold Murray. Purcella Brothers. Kyra. James F. Carson. Rosie Green, Joe Keno. Kitty Kelly. Bud Doyle. Carl Judd. Al Martin. Gene Bedding, the Rath Brothers and typical Win ter Garden ensemble of beauty.

Seldom has light comedy made bigger hit than has tho one now showing at Fox's. Skirts To Eo into detail of the funny situations would be to spoil it for those who plan to see it tonight and tomorrow. but the ability of Clyde Cook is well known and he has the leading part. The scores of bathing girls and models add to the comedy. The Singer Midgets, with their band and circus, are also essential to the pie ture. The new serial. Eddie Polo in Do Or Die starts off with smash and indications are that it will de- velop into a tense melodrama. The first episode, now showing. is '"The Buccaneers Bride" The Fox Ne ys. a Sunshine comedy and an Outing Chester are also on the bill

DRAMATIC PHoToPLAY, PALACE.

Merit pervades the whole atmos- phere of Allan Dwan's production of The Scoffer." which opened an en- gagement at the Palace theater yes terday and which may we'll be listed as one of the very best photodramas of the current season. Seldom has such a story been told so masterfully and rarely have incidents held an au- dience so enthralled. An intensive drama, it opens the eyes to some of life's foibles, yet in no sense is it guilty of moralizing.
 The Keith vaudeville bill features four excellent acts with Cutty and Nelson in a musical offering; Conn and Hart. comedians and dancers; Jean BarriSs an excellent surprise of fering, and Nhe Three Hendersons in a marvellous sensational novelty.

The entertainment opened with a scene of the lobby hotel of "Phunn Inn." a honeymoon hotel. The young women of the chorus took the part of the bell boys of the hotel in the opening number.

"PETTICOAT GOVERNMENT"
Many Municipal Functions That
Women Can Perform.

During recent years it has hap
pened in a number of small cities
and towns in woman suffrage states,
that the women would become dis
satisfied with the way the men ran
the municipality and would offer an
opposition ticket of their own. Such
case happened at Jackson, Wyom-
ing, where the women more than a
year ago elected a governing board
of their own sex. AT a more recent
election the voters sustained their
administration and showed they
wanted it continued.
Such instances raise the question
whether the universal adoption OF
woman suffrage will lead women in
many places to seek positions in
municipal politics, or attempt to
establish what is disrespectfully
known as "petticoat government"
A number of western states have
had woman suffrage for many years.
No general tendency in those states
on the part of women to seek poll
teal control has been reported. Still
when one thinks how women are
advancing in every field of industry,
and how impatient they get with
tardy municipal progress, it would
not be strange if the next few years
saw many female candidates for
municipal office. Women may argue
that municipal government is but
an extension of the principles OF
home keeping to the home town.
Local government does not present
the complicated business problems
encountered in administering a
state or the federal authority. Many
women will feel that if they have
shown ability to run a home effici'
emily, they could also conduct
schools, take charge of public health
work, look after municipal charities
assess and collect taxes, etc etc.
Women are not likely to line ur
against the men in any politica
| movement based on sex. But there
are so many municipal functions thai
women could perform as well a;
men or better, that indolent official;
who follow along the old ruts, SHOULD
realize that they are likely to bt
superseded by class Of workers
that believe in efficiency and direc
results.
