Health Ward
Information furnished by Pine County
Nursing Service.

Miss Virginia Karlson has been in
specting the school children in dist
riots IS, SO and 80 this week and
made several home visits in that vi
cinity. A call was made to the home
of one of the school boys whose eyes
were much weaker this year than last
inspection. 1t is hoped that he will
now be able to get glasses.
Visits were made to several fami-
lies who have been in contact with
a person having tuberculosis and ar
rangements were made for each men,
Der of the families to have Man
toux test on Saturday. tuberculosis
is caused by contact with the germ
and it is necessary for those who
have been around any person with
tuberculosis to be tested in order to
make treatment most successful.
Influenza and colds are on the de-
crease. School attendance through
out the county is more normal. How
ever, people are urged to stay home
a few extra days to prevent seri-
Gus after-effects. Eat nourishing
foods and get plenty of rest which will
aid a great deal on the road to re-
covery.
Miss Karlson spoke to the PIT. A.
in Brook Park on Wednesday eve
ming about the development of Pub
lie Health work in the schools. About
80 people were present and an inter-
esting and instructive report on health
was given by the children from Miss
Trust and Miss Clausen's classes.
The weather has moderated some
what and roads are in better con-
dition, so Miss Karlson will be able
to get to more schools and homes.
