HEALTH NEE TING
Gets UNDE R WAY
SECOND ANNUAL HEALTH CON
FERENCE OPENED MONDAY
WITH BIG ATTENDANCE.

Miehigan's second annual confer
ence of health officers and public
health nurses, held under the au-
spices of the state department of
health and Michigan. Public Health
Association, began Monday with
more than 800 delegates present rep
resenting virtually every county in
the state.
In his opening address DR.. r. NJ.
Olin, state health commissioner,
pointed out the necessity of an annual
gathering of health officers and pub
lie health nurses and announced that
the annual conference was to become
a permanent fixture in the program
Of the Michigan Department Of
Health.
Few people have the responsible
ity thrust upon them in a lifetime
that a public health officer and nurse
face daily" DR.. Olin said. Chances
Of preventing death come to the pub
Tic health worker frequently. On his
decision and action rests much of the
welfare Of every community. To
cure the individual is the work of the
practicing physician. TO assist in
keeping the community from being
composed Of sick individuals is the
function Of the public health worker"
Ia addition to the large number of
health officers and nurses many
practicing physicians and members Of
the faculties Of medical schools and
colleges are here.
The principal speaker on the open
ing program IS Eugene r. Kelley, NJ.
D., Commissioner of Massachusetts
Department of health. Other men of
prominence who are here are: Geo
c. Whipplc, professor Of engineering
at Harvard University, S. w. Welch,
NJ. d., Alabama State Health Officer,
David Marine, NJ. d., New York City,
Anna f. Rude, N. D.. Of the U. S.
Dept. Of Labor, Washington, Frank
c. Boudreau, VI D., Of the Ohio De-
partmcnt Of Health
Governor Alex j. Groesbeck and
Attorney General Merlin Wiley are
scheduled to speak on the program.
