The convention opened with regis- tration,—1,800 registering the first day, Thursday, April .26th—many more registering during the week. All -told, nearly 8,000 registered. Fol- lowing registration we attended joint sessions, which were held each day, at which talks were given and papers read on various subjects pertaining to . gemeral public health, including topics on care of children, mental hygiene, social hyglene, school nursing, etc. ou paper worth mentioning was by Mr. Thomas Mott Osborne, who told of actual conditions exikting in Sing Sing and Trenton prisons only two years ago. His subject was ‘“Health Conditions In Prisons”—but he de- clared that it should ratheér be —“Dis- ease Conditions in Prisons’’—because heaith conditions were most conspicu- ous by their absence. The speaker also sald that crime was a moral dis- ease and drew many comparieons be- tween the treatment of moral disease and physical disease to show the ab- surdity of the fixing of a uniform course of treatment in any prison. Miss Mary Beard, president of the National Organization for ’Public Health, expressed the fear that the, war would cause S0 many nurses to' volunteer for Red Cross work that the public - héalth would suffer. She plw that the nation's health should not.be d by tooigreat a patriot- ic fervor on the part of nurses, and urged all nurses engaged in public health work to hold their - positions until called for war duty. She said, *“If we are doing our duty as public health nurses, we are serving our country every day and in these com- ing days our service will be more than ‘ever needed”. hing h-lp to 1musutlon. prevents and settles the little one’s stom- as nothing else can do.
