Health Ward
Information furnished by Pine County
Nursing Service

In summarizing the work of the
county nursing service for 1899, it is
found that of the 5000 school children
in the county, 5000 have been in
Spected between January l and De-
cember 81 of 1889 We try to in
Spect the schools every school year,
but have found that there is too much
for one nurse to visit in the homes
to secure connection of defects. In
some counties the nurse inspects the
school child every second or third
year and there was more time to visit
the homes of the children who need
attention, as crippled, those who need
glasses or medical and dental care.
Pine county is one of the largest
counties to work in, there being % 900
people and the nursing service appre-
ciates any suggestion as to how we
can best help them to health.
To Visit Village Schools.
Miss Virginia Karlson is going to
begin inspections of city and town
schools which must be completed by
April, as there are yet some of the
rural schools to be inspected Par
entS are invited to come to these
school inspections as are the COM
mittee women. Three hundred and
eighty-siX homes have been visited.
for all types of visits combined. and
943 different individuals were Wis
tied. This includes maternity. in
fancy, tuberculosis, crippled children.
and communicable diseases. Of the
five auxiliary committees formed dur
ing the past year, two of them, the
central and northwestern, are well
organized, have definite meeting dates
and have elected their officers who
are efficient. 1t is hoped the other
groups will do this soon as there is
need for the work and interest of
these groups. There are IS women
on committees about the county and
we hope they all continue their in
terest and support of the nursing
service.
In analyzing our service we find
that there is great deal to be de-
sired. We do not do enough mater
nifty and infancy work, nor enough
tuberculosis work, nor enough for the
crippled children. Perhaps in the
coming year, with the help of these
organized auxiliary committees and
doing half of the schools each year,
the nurse will be able to reach more
homes, help more mothers in the
care and feeding of their children,
arrange for more vaccination and
immunization campaigns.
The nursing service wishes to thank

trying to lay down an orderly pro-
gram for Improvement of laboring
conditions, peacefully negotiating
contracts and agreements, quietly
smoothing over inevitable frictions
between workers and management.
When some irresponsible leader re-
sorts to tactics as detested blythe rank
and file of labor as by the rest of the
community, that misconduct, too, is
likely to be of headline-capturing
proportions.
Perhaps this is tendency no more
general in the press than in all peo-
pie 1t is the sore thumb that folk
notice. No one notices or comments
about thumbs when they are in nor
NAL condition. Wrap bandage
around one and it becomes conspic-
uous and the subject of question and
conversation.
A sore thumb, here and there, does
not raise any public apprehensions
that thumbs in general are offending
members. Perhaps we need the same
attitude toward the 'sore thumbs" of
business and of union labor. There
is need for more emphasis on and
more recognition of the constructive
contributions of the great majority
among the leaders of labor and of
business.

PLATFORM VS.. PERFORMANCE
Editor Askov American:

Editor Askov American:
The Republican party in state con-
vention assembled at Minneapolis on
September 2, 1888, adopted the fol-
lowing plank in its platform:
"We demand that the right to fix
and regulate the value of money be
restored to Congress under the Con-
stitution'
The people of Minnesota got the
impression the COP had awakened
from its hayward ways and hence
forth would follow in the footsteps
of Abraham Lincoln in the matter of
issuing money.
The Republicans won on that issue.
But where, oh where is the per-
Torrance?
Republican leadership has totally
ignored this plank.-Yes indeed, by
their inaction they have repudi-
ated it.
Instead of following in the foot
steps of Abraham Lincoln, they are
following the tracks of the Benedict
Arnolds.
Governor Stassen and the Repub-
lican leadership in the state legisla-
ture, instead of using their influence
to restore to Congress its power and
duty to coin and regulate the value
of money, have enacted laws pro-
tecting the loan sharks in the COL
lection of 36 percent interest and
passed the infamous lien law by
which perhaps hundred thousand
homes will be confiscated from the
aged and the infrm.
The people of Minnesota wanted
change in 1888, and got it.
They may want another change in
1870
Cut this out and send it to some
good CD Republican leader

During the week since the last re-

portant sinkings of German, French
or British shipping on the high seas;
there have been few small neutral
vessels sent to the bottom, but no
major naval event.
And the front on the border line
of France and Germany has con-
tinued to be remarkably quiet. OF
course, some fighting is always going
on between the French and the Ger
mans, but so far it has been so in
significant as to be of no consequence
whatever-except to the unfortunate
individuals who lost their lives.
One hears rumors of a violent
spring campaign being prepared on
both sides of the front. But-spring
is quite way off yet.

POOLING THE PUBLIC

Editor Askov American:
I'm somewhat surprised after
reading Honorable Harold Knutson's
comment under the heading, "Ob-
servations," in regards to what he
says about the Communists. How
they helped to save the Democratic
and constitutional government of
Spain. Indeed, they were so indig-
nant over the assault upon the pop
ular government, which is correct,
they helped all they could to save it.
But what help did our Congressman
give to help save the Democratic
government of Spain? Of he did) l
failed to hear of it.
Then he goes on and tells that
Finland is today fighting for SINH
lar cause and instead of the Com
munists helping them, they are fight
ing the poor Firms. There is where
Mr.. Knutson is trying to fool the
American public into believing that
the Communists are Every reluctant
ly) or backward and are not giving
any help to the Finnish people and
tries to make out that they are fax
ers whose minds have been warped
