Looking After The Children

Child Health Conferences were held
in nearly every section of the State
under the auspices of the Bureau of
Child Hygiene of the State Depart
ment of Health, during the three
months, ending August 18th, accord
ing to reports from the Bureau.
Ninety-one places in twenty counties
were visited; ninety-five conferences
were held, and over 1000 children,
ranging in age from babies in arms,
to their older sisters and brothers who
will enter school this fall, were given
a careful physical examination. No
medical treatments were given, bu,
children in need of medical or dental
care, were referred by letter to their
own doctors.
Of the 95 conferences,-nearly half
Were held in connection with the visit
of the HeaIthmobile-th Child
Health Special" or the Child Health
Bus" as it is called, in Howard, Anne
Arundel, Prince George, Charles, s.
Mary's and Calvert counties. The
"Special' will spend the rest of the
season on the Eastern Shore, visiting
Queen Anne, Somerset and Wicomico
counties, holding child health confer
ences in each place.
In connection with the child health
conferences that will be hcld during
the next few weeks, Dr. Knox, Chief
of the Bureau, said. eve hope t. reach
as many as possible Of the five and
six year-olds before they are enrolled
in school, Our experience has shown
that the examinations frequently
bring to light conditions that need
correction-something that may seem
insignificant now possibly . condj-
tion of the teeth, or it may be 4
throat that needs looking after: or it
may be the eyes that need attention.
If those things are attended to NOW,
they may save a great deal Of suffer-
ing and Illness later On"
Two out of eve y tl.ree children eX-
amined so far, have needed dental at
tention. The Bureau owns portable
dental outfits, whica arc beng used in
follow-up dental Clinics in different
parts of the State.

iSe ha dado usted cuenta alguna
vez de que la causa de que tanta
gente anne a Abraham Lincoln cs
cue oIa un hombre conltin ordina-
rio?
L. mayor1a de la gente que ad-
quiere distinction 10 hace porque po-
seezl alguna cualidad o alglin ta-
lonto que los hace exclusives. Tales,
por eJemplo, son los casos de Cho-
nil, Gladstone, Mendelssohn, y mu-
cnos ctros contemporaries de Lin
coin. Zero Lincoln es notable porque
el no poseia ninguna caracteristica
exclusive.
No era bien parecido. Era un HON.
Ire feo. Y los mas de nosotros So
mos fees. Ell una vez dijo que "Dios
debia amar a la gente comun, a
la gente de apariencia comtn, va
que hacia tantos de ellos'. No es
ningunss desgracia ell ser bien pare
cido, y tai vez Sc lie pueda perdonar
2 ullo que Sc enorgullezca razonable-
mente de su pulcritud. Pero de to-
dos mcdos, los mas de nosotros nos
falta la buena apariencia. Lincoln
pertenecia la gran mayoria a este
ceSpecto, pues no era bien parecido.
No era IN hombre instruido. No
era un estudiante de griego, como
GladSton, nj era un gran musico, nj
I'M gran artista. Era grande. pero
su grandeza consistia en- las cuali-
dades que todos nosotros tenemos.
No era ingenioso. Era sencillamen.
te como el resto de nosotros en- esta

En- el habia todos los impulses
gtnerosos y buenos que todos tene-
mos. Cuando decimos que el era no
table por su bondad, simplemente
decimos que era notable por sus cua-
