Old Settler Here.

A. M. Grunden of Gales township
was a visitor in Redwood Falls Sat-
urday June End. This was the seven
ty-seventh anniversary of Mr.. Grun-
den's birth. He came to Redwood
County in 1872 and homesteaded the
place on which he still makes his
home, in 1874. Very few farms in
Redwood County have been the home
of the same man for forty-nine consec-
utive years. Mr.. Grunden was accom-
panied to Redwood Falls by his son,
Paul Grunden and the trip was made
by automobile which Mr.. Grunden
states is much faster mode of travel
than that to which he was accustomed
in the old days. He states however
that the walking was excellent in those
days and that he several times walked
from his home to the George johnson
home in Sheridan and return in one
day. this distance being about fifty
miles.

County Nurse
Makes Report
FIGURES SHOW WORK OF YEAR
DONE BY COUNTY NURSE IN
REDWOOD COUNTY SCHOOLS.

Miss Emma Ohlendorf, nurse of
Redwood County, makes the follow
ing report of work done by her during
the pastAyear.
"Once more a health survey of the
children Of Redwood County has been
completed. Every school has been
visited at least once and some of them
oftener. Approximately four thous-
and children have been examined.
While this may not seen such an un-
usual number, it assumes the pro-
portions of considerable task when
we stop to think that these children
are housed in hundred-i fifteen differ
emit schools. Added to necessary dis
tances are all kinds of weather and
all kinds of roads.
LET me state briefly a few of the
many duties of q County Nurse. Her
aim is the preservation of health and
the prevention of disease. In the
schools she teaches systematic care
of health by establishing health hab-
its-she tries to interest the teach
ers in carrying on a health program
throughout the year. She also con-
siders the environment of the school
room, studying its cleanliness, its
proper heating and lighting, ventila-
tion, seating system, drinking foun-
tain, facilities for cleanliness, indi-
vidual towels etc.
"The County Nurse also reaches
the home, studying the conditions
there and helping the family to live
normal and happy life. If we want
boy or girl in school to be nor
NAL, both physically and mentally
we must begin with its grandparents
or at least with its parents. We
need better parental care. The ex-
pectant mother should consult a ply.
sician at intervals, she should keel
herself physically fit, free of defec'
tive teeth and tonsils and have suffi.
cient rest and sleep.

want to give it right start in life

dollars cash and three dollars month
for four successive months. The girls

ing three dollars cash and two dol
lars month for four months. Boys

necessary that anyone wait until es-
pecially invited as the Club is not in
