T D.LOVES OF THOSE | “THE ss.:m oF | Recently hed was a al booklet “Home Care of the Tuberculous in Alaska,” which was written by Mrs. Frances Paul of Juneau with the photographs taken by her son, William L. Paul Jr. The bock, which shows step by step the cure of tuberculosis in an Alaskan native hcme, was nearly two years in preparation. All the photographs were taken in Juneau and many local natives posed for the illustrations. Copies of the bocklet have been received by the Alaska Native Service, the Alaska Tuberculosis Association and the Territorial Department of Health. The booklet i based on a stor It Can Be Done, produced original- ly in kodachrome slides by the Al- E Tuberculosis Assoclation with the cooperation of the Alaska Na- tive Service. Wherever shown, this excellent educational productionhas aroused intense interest, however, in order to prove truly effective, the details of home nursing had to be learned. This could not be done in a single film representation. Hence, Mrs. Frances Paul, president of the Association’s Board, delved deeper, and with the aid of her son, whose pictures are professionally signed “Paul, Junior,” prepared the out- standing pamphlet cn home nurs- ing. Their work was sponsored by the Alaska Native Service and the booklet printed at Haskell Institute. Leading Juneau native people posed for the illustrations.. Mrs. Katie Villoria and her daughter, Mrs. Jessie Greenwald, are the principal characters. The text has passed the censuring eyes of the medical and nursing professions. Where it touched upon native life, the natives themselves gave cor- rective criticism. | Th text is simple and comprehen- sive. For almost two years, Frances Paul tock time out of her busy life of teaching for the Alaska Na- tive Service, to make eve cene in the text count. She is an artis- 1 tic perfectionist. If not entirely -errrerreerrrerrrreeead | pleasing, patiently she re arranged jan erring set and rephotographed | the models. The result is an artis- | tic educational triumph, a credit | to Alaska. { That the booklet will meet a vital | need is emphasized in the preface | contributed by Dr. George A. Dalé, | Director of Education for the Alas- | ka Native Service. We quote, “There fwlll always be need for home care | o1 tuberculosis patients. Such care is necessary while the doctor is study- ling the patient’s case to determine | whether he has active tuberculosis. | At times hospital beds are not |available and home care is neces- isary while waiting for a hospital bed. Gooed care at home following { hospital care would often make it | possible for a patient to return to his family and make his hospital bed available to another patient. In many cases it will be necessary for i the patient to be cared for at home throughout the time that he is re- covering from tuberculosis.” Copies of the booklet are limited | and costly and they will be distri- buted with care. In general, the Alaska Native €ervice and the Ter-, ritorial Department of Health will send coples to their field nurses, and also to school, hospital and public libraries, while the Associa-| tion will reserve their booklets for the persons for whom they were | designed, in other words, persons with known cases of tuberculosls who have an opportunity for home | care. | | | AWVS MEETING IS SET FOR WEDNESDAY The American Women's Volun- tary Service will meet tomorrow af- ternoon at the Governor's House at 5 o'clock. Among the projects to be dis- cussed will be a proposed game party to be held in November to raise money for the Hospitality Fund. Reports will be heard on the day nursery and on the International Relations Study Group, which will meet cn the second Tuesday eve- ning of every month. ———————o The waltz, introduced from Ger- many into France and England at ATH!
