County Must Raise Entire Nurses
Fund Except $500.

FOrty-one States bes des Maryland
have accepted the conditions of the
Sheppard Towner Act and are engage
ed in the almost universal campaign
to secure public health nurses in rural
sections as we'll as in the cities. A
number of Maryland counties already
employ public health nurses and at
least ten other counties are working
to secure nurses for the first time and
avail themselves of aid now offered.
The Sheppard owner bill, passed
several months ago, has as its pur-
pose the encouragement of nation
wide activity in promoting the physic-
al welfare Of the country's children.
Maryland has received from the
Federal Government funds made
available by the Sheppard Towner Act
and has doubled the amount received.
The Bureau of Child Hygiene of the
Maryland Board Of Health now has
the funds received from both Nation
anu CldJG al us us JtSdl. IOm IIlIS
combined fund Garrett County will
probably receive as its share five hun
dred dollars.
The nurses salaries and expenses,
excepting the $500, outside aid, must
be raised within Garrett County. The
expenses for the first year are reIa-
lively high because they include the
cost Of acar for each nurse.
That Garrett County will probably
soon follow the recommendation of
the United States government m hir-
ing public health nurses and be one
Of the first counties Of the State to
avail itself of the offered aid is a
fact. of which every citizen of Garrett
may be justly proud.
In the United States there are now
employed $4,000 successful public
health nurses. Federal and State
authorities hope to double this number
in a short time.
