PERFECT

SOUGHT
Results at Three of City
Schools are Noted

y nat hammond school harbors
the perfect child?
Not the anemic genius intellec-
tually years ahead Of his or her
fellow stunents.
Nor the mental sluggard that in

But the leo per cent normal child
n whom Is blended and balanced

That's what Dr. H. S. Kuhn il
seeking. She's health director OF
Hammond public schools. She has
started q child health survey of
all schools in the city This viii

The hunt for the perfect chItld is
only incidental
The real purpose of the survey is
to find children not normal physical

assistants. Miss Lulu Cook and Miss

Of course somewhere in the Ham
mond schools there IS a perfect child
Perhaps Dr. Kuhn has found that
child is one Of the three schools in
which surveys have been made. To-
day she wouldn't say who that child
is. But she will, she says. Then
she added.
One thing peculiar about the
school children of Hammond IS that
We've found the percentage OF NAL
nutrition Cunderfed) children re-
markably low for an industrial COM
munity.
In fact the percentage is much
lower here than in many country
districts. Farm children have al
ways given the state board Of health
something to worry about in this
respect. The real reason why the
children Of the soil should be NAL
nutrious has never been. satfsfac-
toriiy determined. Perhaps it is
because they are forced to partake
OF the heavy fare prepared for the
men folks. Usually the foods are
for child. True they have the ad-
vantages Of butter. eggs, milk and
fresh farm produce. but still they
present the greatest number of un-
derfed specimens.
In Hammond too, one would ex-
pect TO find q great many cases of
lung troubles. The climate, indoor
occupations Of most Of the workers
and other causes are of the sort
that lead to lung troubles. But
Hammond school children fortunate-
" are free in great measure from
these ailments
Here is what the health survey at
haywood and Wallace schools re-
vealed The figures for Lafayette
have not yet been compiled
