Reports from the sale of Christmas stamps for the Minne- sota Public Health association indicate that the seals are selling with only moderate success. “Money is tight" is t}\e:geneyal opinion. ; s ! Many forget the economic value of health in a community. Health is sometimes purchased at.a considerable.monetary price but it invariably brings profitable returps on the investment. Factories of robust work men, stores with vigorous.salesmen andY. sales women, and schools with healthy children and teachers, make a community, 8 self-supporting, progressive and happy place to live in. If, on the other hand, individuals are permitte to go about exposing thase with whom they come in contact to some malignant disease, the efficiency and progressiveness of the group thus exposed is weakened and the employer losep much that would be gained through.a sturdy group of em- ployees. -The health of a family, one member of which js afflict- ed with a contagious or infectious diseage, is in grave jeopardy and the whole group becomes a liability rather.than an asset :u the community. Economically, the community-is suffering a 0ss. ¢ b2 This, then, is one thing that the Public Health association " 'has done and will continue to do. It has searched qut.cases of tuberculosis and other infectious diséases and reported them.tfin many cases the patient suffering from the disease was seriously endangering the lives of others. The patient was sent to a sani- + tarium or some means were taken'to relieve him in the best possible way. . In many cases the patient is able to take care of /himself as sooh as he realizes his condition. But in cases where he was not able to do so, the Public Health association has ad- vanced the funds. y ey : Cases like the above mentioned are too numerous to men- tion, but the fact that they are of a private and confidential na- ture makes publicity of the details impossible. Tuberculosijs; clinics are held in the county and many take advantage of the free examination offered. There are, however, a great many who do.not avail themselves of such an opparfuni- ty. It is the duty of the Health association tosee &w‘ uch persons are examined and to take measures to protect the com- munity in case an infectious or contagious disease is found. Is this not worth‘investing a small sum of money in? Would not the returns from a tuberculosis-freed county be a hundred times the amount invested. in a few dollars of Christmas stamps?

Y In the grade schools these questions would be much easier than in the Junior and Senior departments of the High school, where éach teacher has only a few subjects to feach, and each pupil. has several teachers during the course of the day’s in- struction. g . Toa i e \ This week is National School Week and_all residents of Bemidji are urged to. become acquainted with their schools, in other words to “know your.schools.” Bemidji’s schools are open to visitors at all time while school is in progress, but this week a special invitation is being offered. So far, there has been an increase over the usual number of school visitots, biit the facilty urges that still more people visit the various school’ bl’lildinlfl.
