At iit NU Cent Health Office Officer Issues State- ment on Work Being Accom- plished toward Correct- ing Defects oe eta, To the Public: The local health officiais, realizing the importance of finding physical de- fects in the ehild of school age, so that the parent or guardian may be mado aware of the condition in time to pre- vent serious consequences, are now éx- arining “all children in the public schools of Casper, A preliminary ex- amination of the children is being con- ducted by the school and publié health nurse, Each child's eyes, teeth, tonsils, nose and neck glands ure examined for defects and when there is reason to suspect diseases of the chest organs same also will be inspected. When the nurse finds « physically efective child, the case is referred io the medical inspector of schoola who conducts the final examination and Makes out the required form, a Gopy of which is handed to the child to bring home, the original being retained by the school niirse for follow-up work with the parents, This system of in- epection is approved and in force in ‘all of the progressive cities and states over our country. Tt is net in any sense compulsory that the parent have the defective condition corrected. They are merely* advised of the presence of the defect and it is suggested that the child be taken to the family physician or dentist:for his an se which is. con« sidered final. It is a well known jana recognized niifie fact, that during the schoot our coming men and women are being physically and mentally made. Is there a parent in Casper who does not crave for the greatest perfection attain- able, both physically and mentally, In their offspring? Of course, there isn’t. Most people are prone to forget physi- cal imperfections in the young, espe- cially in-the care of the teeth, giving the opinion that the child will grow out of them—asuch is not the case, It is nas Important to care ‘for the first set of tecth as it is for the permanent * since decayed and infected first teeth may cause a permanent injury to the child’s vital organs that will remain thruout their whole life. The same ap- plies to infected tonsils and defects of breathing. Many permanent heart and lung defects have their origin here. Besides a child physically defi¢iént can- not possibly have the same chance men- tally with a normal child. Absortion of bacterial poisons’ from the mouth or throat are the recognized causes of a great thany acute and chronic diseases.

Partfularly should they be followed just now, when influenza is again abroad in the,land. Authort- ties agree, however, that the flu thir year is less severe than in the last epidemic—the attacks are shorter and the death rate lower. In fact, many physicians insist that the epi-~ demics now belrig reported from so many sections are not flu at all, but simply the old-fashioned gripps. Keep the Air Passage Healthy ‘While we know very little more about the flu now than we did last year—the germ itself has never been positively identified—still most au- thorities agree that the flu germs are breathed in.
