At least 20 and, according to some estima‘es, possibly 33 per cent of the school children of the United States are suffering from malnutrition, as general physical underdevelopment is commonly designated, says the ad- visory committee on foods and nutri- tion “of the National Child Health Council in a report that will soon be published by the United States pub- lic health service, which co-operated in its preparation. Malnutrition, continues the report, is not confined to any one class or race; in some cities it is apparently as prevalent in the home of the well- to-do as in those of persons of more limited means. The condition is evi- denced not only by weight and growth records, but also by listless- ness, lack of color, dullness and sometimes by restlessness and irri- tability. It is due chiefly to physical defects, faul habits or environment. of ical defects the most common obstructions (adenoids, for in- stance) in the nose or throat, which interfere with breathing, and decayed teeth, which breed germs and inter- fere with chewing. When such de- cts are remedied many children will lop normally. Faulty food and health habits are also important causes of malnutri- tion. They include too little food. the wrong kind of food and bad food habits. whether due to ignorance, poverty or lack of home discipline: and also faulty posture in standing, sitting or walking, all of which in- terfere with the normal functioning of important organs of the body. habits be corrected by o which, however. fully controlled, as may prove harmful. re ch proper should otherw = n 1 DEDIGATE CHURCH AND NEW SO St. Anthony’s Ceremony Col ducted by Archbishop Curley.
