Landing Field For

One of the coming needs of a pro-

Air passenger service is now fact
and new air lines are being inaugu-
rated every day. Pine City is well
situated for landing field, about half
way between the Twin Cities and the
Twin Ports, on the line now being
taken by the regular passenger planes
now being operated between these two
points.
o. w. Peterson of the Pine City
Motor Company, is in receipt of a
questionable from the Ford Motor
Company, asking for Information re-
garding the possibility of a landing
field being provided here. Anyone
having land close to town, available
for such purpose, or others interest

it up with Mr.. Peterson-Pine Poker.

bring results, she should visit the
parents in behalf of the child, in their
home
If this does not keep her busy for
the entire day or for the half day
for which she may be hired, there is
plenty of opportunity for her to lee
ture to the children on sanitation,
hygiene, and proper diet. She could
conduct clinics in physical culture, or
helpful exercises, proper diet, demon
strations of the proper way of cooking
the foods, and above all, personal n.y.
giene. This will give the children a
better chance in the school and at the
end of the year, the records of every
child will show that something has
actually been accomplished for the
improvement of the physical and men
tai condition of our school children.
There is one particular branch of
medicine that lay great stress on for
school nurse or general county
nurse to do, and that is the teaching
and demonstrating of oral hygiene.
My reason for this is that l have
found so many of our boys and girls
at the ages of 10 to Is years wearing
complete sets of artificial teeth. This
condition, we all know, is entirely
preventable.
The ever-present problem of defray-
ing the expenses of school nurse
and school physician believe could
be worked out satisfactorily in each
district, by the boards of education
in connection with the superintend-
ents of the schools and the county
superintendent of schools. Suggest
ions as to the change of the curricu-
lum would perhaps give saving that
could be paid to the nurse as salary.
When the full meaning of the i'm
portance of regular school examina-
tions and follOw-up work of the
nurse is understood, there will be
no trouble to provide means to
employ them. We spend our tax
payers school money to educate
our children and it is reasonable to
suppose that a child that is healthy
both in mind and body will be more
benefited by the schooling and the
money spent than otherwise. They
would attend school perhaps less
time, which is an economy, whereas
it would take them ten years or more
to go through the eight grades if they
are sub-normal and unhealthy, they
would perhaps make it in less time
than eight years if normal.
In conclusion, fellow practitioners,
l can see no practical solution of the
county nurse problem by employing
one general nurse, required to cover
the entire county and schools of the
county. Such county as ours, as
described at the outset of this paper,
would demand the services of ten such
nurses, if the field were to be covered
anywhere near as it should be.
What l have attempted to make
clear in this paper, is that favor the
appointment of school nurses-half
