PLAY SPACE URGED FORNEW SEAOOLS Supt. Ballou Also ‘Recom- mends Recreational Equip- ment of All _Yards.’ . FINAL SECTION OF REPORT Favors Increase in Medical and Dental Inspectors and Shows Need of Physical Training of Pupils. Adequate play space for every new public school established in the Dis- >, ct and the -satisfactory equipment Tor play purposes of all school yards but unequipped, are now available, the salient recommendations of Supt. of Schools Frank W. Ballou in the fifth and final section of his an- nual report, which was given out last night for publication. Dr. Ballou also urged that new items be provided in equipment to replace worn out play- ground equipment and to provide «ompensation for supervisors of play grounds after school hours and dur- the vacation period. n the past, the equipment of our playgrounds has consisted of swings, see-saws and aid the report. “These are all deteriorating solely because under the law, new equipment can be pur- chased for six additional playgrounds yearly, but none of that appropria- ay be expended for grounds pre- 1y equipped or recently enlarged. From the appropriation for mainte nance and repair, repairs for play- zround equipment can be made from time to time. However, when it is once worn out it may not be re- placed under any appropriation now yrovided in the appropriations bill. It is usually replaced by the generous ntribution of home and school as- ations and like organizations. Need for Playsrounds. “The streets of Washington are coming to be more and more danger- ous to pedestrians and particularly to school children. It is desirable that the school playgrounds be util- ized to their fullest exent. They should be opened before school and after school and during the recess periods. School playgrounds so open- ed should be properly supervised When children of all ages from the first grade to the eighth grade are using the same playground it is es- sential that there must be.some one in charge to supervise the children. “During the recesses which occur in the schoolday a teacher can be assigned to look after the play of children. It should not be consid- ered a part of the teacher's duties to supervise the play of pupils during the summer vacation.” Medical and Dental Inspection. A large part of the report is taken up with a description of the work of the medical and dental inspectors, ‘which, Dr. Ballou points out, is handi- capped because of low wages paid the physicians and dentists and the the mext budget for the purchase of inptruction for a period of years and which has now been incorporated as & part of the course of study and training for the elementary..school pupils. - “The point of view represented by this modification of the course of study s important.. Instruction in physiology and hygiene of the body is comparatively a failure unless it resulte in appropriate care of the body on the part of the pupils receiving such instruction. Instead of empha- sizing detailed facts of human physi- ology, the present course of &fly em- phasizes various health habi This new development is exceedingly promising.. 3 4 Physical Training Needed. “In the kigh schoo) physical train- ing is a required minor through the four-year course. In athletics usu- and training who are already best developed physically. In altogether too many cases high school pupils whose bodies should be built up by appropriate exercises are receiving lowed to continue throughout their high school period of education with- out correcting many physical defects which should be’corrected during that period. ‘Many pupils also go through high school suffering from overfatigue and overstrain, and many graduate or leave school prematurely, not well fitted physically to take up the duties of life. Suca pupiis need careful study and expert physical gildance. Their pro- gram of activities should be adjusted to their physical condition. Their bodies should be built up by proper food and health habits.” Medical Examinations. The report shows taat the twelve school medical examiners during the {year examined 29,544 pupils for the de- | tection and prevention of communicable diseases. Some of these were complete examinations, but the majority were for diagnosis of some special symptom noted by the teacher.\ The medical inspectors, according to the report, examined physically 329 ap- plicants for admission to the normal schools, virtually all of whom were found to be suffering from one or more physical defects which should have been corrected during their progress through the elementary and high schools. They also made 437 physical examinations of applicants for teaching positions in the | schools, several of whom were certifled as unfit because suffering from tuber- losis, cardiac lesions, partial blindness, deafness or marked physical deformities to such an extent as to affect materially taeir probable success as teachers. As a result they were not appointed. “These physical examinations,” said Dr. Ballou, “are of great value. and wil undoubtedly insure a higher standard of health among teachers. Such examinations are now made of all applicants for admission to the normal schools, of all pupils in the normal schools before graduation, and of all candidates for teaching posi- tions who come from other cities. It should continue to be the policy of the board of education to require physica] as well as intellectual and moral fit- ness for the teaching profession in the schools of the Nation’s Capital.” Tubercular Pupils ia Schools. Referring to the tubercular schools, Supt. Ballou expressed the opinion that undoubtedly there are many pu- pils now attending the regular schools who, if examined. would be found to be suffering from tubercu- losis, and who need the special care afforded ‘them in the tubercular type schools in order that they may re- n normal health. ‘The new health school to be erect- ed to take the place of the old Hamii- ton School,” the superintendent said, “will undoubtedly afford splendid ed cational and health service for this type of pupil. It is to be hoped that the school medical service may be ex- ally pupils receive physical exercise | too little attention and are being al-| R THE SUN MERCHANTS ASK- EARLY SHOPPING; Association Declares That Buying in Morning Is Espécially Desirable. An appeal to. “shop early for Christ- mas” and in the morning, when the torea are not congested, is contained {in a bolletin issued last night by Charles |J; Columbus, ~secretary of the Mer- chants’ and Manufacturers' Association. | There are now only eighteen more shopping days before Chrsitmas, the bulletin points out, and it behooves | the people of Washington to take ad- vantage of the well stocked store: cspecially those who send present: out of town. 4 “Washington caught the Chistmas preparation spirit in earnest yesterday and the stores were crowded,” said Mr. Columbus. “It is indeed gratifying that the public has come to such a lively ap- preciation of the benefits to be derived from early shopping for Christmas. Urged to Shop in Morning. “The cosmopolitan character of the population, nationally as well as inter- | nationally,” makes it even mandatory that Christmas peeds should be met now in order that the Yuletide remem- brances may be packed and shipped in advance to reach their destinations in season. “The Merchants' and Manufacturers’ Assoclation is therefore co-operating with the city post office in its ‘mail early campaign’ and will follow the ‘shop early’ slogan with a mail early admonition in the screen campaign that will be set in motion by the Merchants and Manufacturers' Association through the co-operation of - the. District of Columbia. Exhibitors' Associatior. It is of the greatest importance to the public that those who can pos- §ibly do so should shop in the morn- 8. Street Rallways Co-Operating. _“Both the Washington Railway and Electric and the Capital Traction companies are co-operating with the Merchants and Manufacturers’ As- sociation through the use of dash board signs supplied by the mer- chants and manufacturers, while the same organization has distributed show cards of the same tenor in a sincere desire to serve the public's interest by securing a more substan- tial observance of the shop early for Christmas program.”, — dietary habits, and, second, the under- nourished group, as' determined by periodical weighing, should be given special consideration, study and in- struction .in the following ways: “Midmorning feeding of miik and crackers, to be paid for by the par- ents, but handled by the parent teacher associations or mothers’ midafternoon feeding of samre school program modified to meet requirements for additional rest periods in cases of suffering from poor nutrition due to overfatigue physical examination by medical in spector of pupils 7 per cent or more under weight, and follow-up by nurses for cofrection of physical defects and of improper food and health habits: organization of undernour- ished children into competing groups known as nutrition classes, in which the results of weekly welghings will be studied and the pupils, together with their parents, instructed in the small force. As a result, the super- intendent recommended that the num- ber of medical inspectors be in- creased from twelve to twenty, that the dental inspectors be increased from four to six, that the dental operators be increased from eight to sixteen, and that their salaries be substantially increased. An increase from $2,500 to $3,500 a year also is asked for the supervising medical in- spector. The adoption of _these recommendations, said Dr. Ballou, ill extend the present “efficient but limited medical and dental service throughout the school system so that all pupils who need it will be reached by the increased staff.” “Instruction in physical wellbeing is provided for in the course of study in the elementary schools and in the high schools;” said the report. consists of a study of physiology and hygiene, in physical exercises and in the inculcation of health habits in the elementary schools. It consists more largely of gymnasium work, drills and athletics in the high schools. “In the elementary schools during the past year much attention has ‘been given to the modern health cru- sade, which has been a part of the SPECIAL NOTICES.

There should be scales in every school. It is pro- posed that scales be purchased as tisoon as funds may be obtained for this purpose, and that the report of the actual height and weight of each pupil, together with the amount which he should weigh, be entered on_the report card. “The program proposed for the solution of this problem of poor nu- trition is_both educational and cor- rective.
