BERLIN NEWS SCHOOL NURSE HAS WUCH OPPOSITION Question of Vital Tmportance to Children “SAFETY FIRST” WEEK IS ON Instructions in s Giving Schools — Chautauqua Gaurantors ror Next Season—Church Notes— Lerlin Bits, question of having a district chool nurse in Berlin is meeting vith much opposition as well as favor. This problem was first intro- luced by the Berlin Motherhood club, which at a meeting held last pring voted that a 'nurse in the pub- le schools of the town would be an 1dded as well as a needed improve- ment. A committee headed by yrge ¥. Dodd was elocted to in- estigate It I8 understood yppose the project Lelleve that the town should have a whool physician Instead of a school n Many people in the town have volced their opinlons both pro and con on the argument. It has been Interesting that there are 30 small towns in inecticut which have the nurses, according to B. R. Showalter. Th nurses in these towns work on part time but make thorough inspections of thelr schools. These towns, simi- lar to Berlin, do not have a school physician he report of a nearby town shows that the nurse has been a great aid in the betterment of the health of the childron attending the schools. This nurse discovered that there were 501 pupils with enlarged tonsils and nasal obstructions attending school. Of this number, 93 have had operations and 21 others were examined and treated. It it had not been for the nurse, the cases would probably have never been treated. Berlin has no school physiclan or nurse and there is llable to be a large numbar of such cases with other dis- cases’ in the local schools which are unknown, merely because there is no person to make an investigation. That the health of the children attending the schools in Berlin is not at its best is shown by the number of epidemics prevalent here last year. Whooping cough and diphtheria were the worst, Ttecently, at the Kensington Grammar school, a helght and weight test was talken. Fifty per cent. of those who took the test were found to be under- welght.
