The message Of health, Of disease
prevention, Of correction Of defects in
children, financed through the sale Of
Christmas seals, has been planted in
every county in the state of Minnesota,
according to Dr.. William F. Wild, Elk
ecutive Secretary Of the Minnesota
Public Health Association. Says DR..
Wild. 70
Glow many other states in the
Union, if any, can boast of program
of health work such as is taking place
in> Minnesota at present. Every coun-
ty in the state has had at least one
clinic and most counties have had
many, where expert medica} advice has
been given free. Stop for a moment
and think Of this work. It is known
that many defects can be corrected in
childhood that cannot be corrected in
adult life. Think of program which
brings specialists to the most remote
rural sections of our state. We know
that ignorance of condition never
cured that condition, hence odr, educa1
tional program has been placed on a
broad enough scale to be within the
reach of all.
Dollars and cents can never measure
the benefits and VALUE of these clinics,
though even on this basis they are
hundred fold investment, and yet the
whole expenditure dwindles into insig-
nifcance when compared to the untold
Joy Of mothers whose undernourished
children have become strong and TO-
bust as a result thereof.
Nor is the program limited to chill
dren, as chest clinics are held in coun-
ties not taken care of in Tuberculosis
Sanatorium Districts, where adults can
have chest examinations made.
The educational activities last year
included the distribution of over lOO,-
coo pieces Of free literature, reaching
every county in the state. County
fairs have been supplied with free
health literature and pamphlets on
many different subjects are sent free
to any person in the state upon re-
quest.
Lectures, motion pictures, and other
on broader scale than has
ever before been attempted, are being
conducted by the State and County
Public Health Associations which are
entirely financed through the sale of
Christmas Seals. It can truly be said
of the Christmas seal. "The good they
on you!''
