fants are weighed, and by bringing
them to the center the gains or
losses are noted, as well as any de-
fects, and remedies are recommend
ed. Should they need medical at
tention, the parent is referred to
their family physician. No prescrib-
ing for illnesses is within the scope
OF the nurse.

Vail, who has charge here, is also
