Health Ward
Information furnished by Pine County
Nursing Service.

Inc central subcommittee invites
all the women to attend an interest
ing meeting to be held at the school,
house in Hinckley, Friday, Septem-
Der 20, at p. m. Miss Ann Nyquist,
whom many of the women of the
county know as Miss Virginia Karl
sons advisory nurse from the State
Department of Health, Division of
Public Health Nursing, on activities
of nursing subcommittee, will give
an idea on what some of the other
counties are doing, and ways of i'm
proving the service here in Pine coun-
ty, through the interest and support
of the people.
DR.. Donald Dukelow, whom many
of you saw at the state fair, will
attend this meeting. He is an excel
lent speaker, and will explain vari-
GUS phases of the work in which you
are interested. The ladies of the
central subcommittee will serve the
lunch. 1t is hoped that some of the
southern subcommittee group will
come, and will soon organize and hold
regular meetings, as are the other
groups. It would make it easier for
the lunch committee if they knew
about how many would come, so if
those who can bring a car full of
women would let Miss Karlson know,
it would simplify matters.
Home Nursing Group Meets.
The class of Is women in home
nursing met recently at the home of
Mrs. Swan, in Ogema township. This
class will meet only once or twice
more as Miss Karlson does not have
much time for classes, now that
school has begun.
The Clover township group also
met, and made obstetrical packs,
which will be sterilized and used in
that vicinity.
Rural school board members and
parents are urged to consider the
immunization program, and try to
finance it for the children if possible.
It can be done very reasonably, to
include the pre-school with those who
attend school. Your teacher has the
necessary blanks and information.
The rural schools will be taken care
of first, while the roads are in good
condition.
The northwestern subcommittee
group met at Rutledge Saturday af-
ternoon. About Is members were
present and accomplished a great
deal. After two 0. B. packs were
wrapped for sterilization the bust
ness meeting was called to order by
the president, Mrs. Kenneth Gay of
Sturgeon Lake. Mrs. Ed. Danelski,
secretary, gave her report as did Miss
V. Karlson, county nurse. Both were
accepted. Mrs. Victor Shafer of Fin
layson, resigned as treasurer and Mrs.
Ed. Danilski was appointed to take
her place until the next election of
officers. A delicious lunch was served
by the Rutledge ladies. The meeting
was held at the schoolhouse. The
next meeting of this group will be
held the 25th of October.
There will be a meeting of the
Twenty-Seventh Annual Mississippi
Valley conference on tuberculosis Oc-
tober 2, 3, and at the Lowry hotel
in St. Paul. The Seal sale directors
of Pine county are invited to attend
the meetings on the third. Those
who are interested, may write to the
Minnesota Public Health Association
for program.
