County Health Dept.
Service In The Schools

: The annual physical examination
of children in the public schools in
the counties was begun in each
county by the County Health Officer,
with the approval of the Depart
ment of Education, soon after the
schools opened for the fall term.
In announcing the arrangements
for the school year, DR.. R. H. Riley,
Director of the State Department of
Health, said that the plan of con-
.centrating on the younger children,
especially those in the lower grades,
which has been followed for several
years, would be continued in the ma
jority of the schools. Children in
other grades will be examined at the
request of the teacher and special
attention will be paid to those in
the upper grades who We're scheduled
for re-examination.
School dental clinics have been
established in nearly all of the
counties and the usual clinics will
be held during the year.
Particular attention is paid in
the examination of the children"
DR.. Riley added ''to the general
health of the child as indicated by
weight and other symptoms of good
or of faulty nutrition; to the throat,
nose, teeth, vision, hearing, the chest
conditions and the child's posture.
The younger children are selected
! for the examinations so that .unfavor-
able conditions may be detected while
they are in the early stages and
when they can he corrected most
readily. Reports of conditions that
need attention are sent to the homes
and the parents are always welcome
at the examinations.
Largely through the activities of
the Parent Teacher Associations and
the follow-up work of the public
health nurses there has been a
steady increase in the interest and
cooperation of the parents in all
matters relating to the health and
well-being of the children in the
schools. The mems Service Clubs
have helped greatly, too, when
glasses have been needed for chill
dren with defective vision or when
other special services have been
needed.
"The physical examination of the
children constitute only a part of the
Health Service of the County Health
Departments in the schools. Medical
inspections of children, no matter
what grade they are in, who have
been exposed to scarlet fever, diph-
iberia, measles, or to any of the
other diseases that are passed read
lily from person to person, are made
by the health officer and the public
health nurse whenever there is dam
ger of an outbreak of such diseases.
"Last year over $4,000 children in
counties had the benefit of the care
full checking up that is given by the
health officers in the physical exam
nations; over $4,000 were inspected
to prevent the spread of communi-
cable diseases and over 10000 visits
were made to the homes by the pub
lie health nurses in connection with
these activities. These figures give
some idea Of the extent of the work
that is done to keep the children
in the county schools in good health ;
to keep them free from avoidable
physical handicaps and to prevent
the spread of communicable diseases

The Last Day
of Summer
At Sandy Spring, Sept. %, 1886

Al Sandy Spring, sept. ~, lJt
The last day of summer!
1 inwardly sigh
To think of chill breezes
And frosts that are nigh.
But too much of gladness
Is still in the air !
To harbor drab forecasts
This day is so fair.
A lacy-like cobweb
In silvery threads
Suspends from the apple tree
Over our heads.
Above the green hedges
White butterflies soar
In the rainbow petunias
Bees eagerly bore.
The prim gladioli
In thrftiness stay
The tints of the sunset
They carry all day.
The pale blue hydrangeas
Our cognizance lure,
And the coral barberrfes
In beauty mature.
The Japan ounce is dropping
It's spicy, gold fruit.
That autumn's advancing
No one can refute.
A lovely transition
Is in view of all,
The richness of summer
With a foretaste of fall.

GRAIN MEN JOINING
PLAN TO HOLD CROP

for pool to hold the crop until
market conditions warrant selling.
At a recent meeting a committee
for this purpose was appointed, Dan
West, assessor-c collector and mem
Der Of the committee, said that in
his opinion this pool is the only
salvation for valley farmers, point
ing out that in this neighborhood
a farmer recently sold barley for
70 cents per hundred, which, said
West, is below the cost OF pro-
duction.
The grain growers finance grow
ers on the basis of 60 percent of
the market price enabling them to
pay the cost of operation. Cheap
insurance, warehouse and railroad
rates are further advantages offered
by the association, West said.
In addition, drought conditions
in the middle west and the extreme
cold in the northern states point to
future favorable conditions for val
ley farmers.

RELIEF COSTS
Expense Takes Sharp
Rise in Many
States

WASHINGTON, April Is.
UP) Government officials
today revealed the cost OF
providing relief for the un-
employed in the past nine
months varied from $371 per job
less person in Kentucky to $2,654
per person in the District OF Col
umbia.
The range of almost $4,000 in
the amount required to give relief
to an individual in connection With
the $4,88O,OOO,OOO work relief pro-
gram was attributed principally
to distribution of the unemployed,
with the cost rising Sharply III
states with few on the list OF
joblesS.
In addition, however. the total
expended took in costs of the WPA
program, the more costly public
works program and other relief
agencies which required varying
federal expenditures as well as
varying wage scales. For instance
New York with 10 per cent OF the
nations jobless showed an aver
age per relief capita cost of $839.
Statistics on the $2,515, ,O82, l5o
distributed by the treasury up to
April /, disclosed the most pro
nounced tendency was toward high
cost for relief in states where the
number of needy is smallest. New
ada's relief costs per capita were
$l,188 while the state was only
1894 persons on relief, or one
tenth of one per cent of the total
of 1904 208 in the nation.
