It |is the fust health clinic in Galilce. ‘The station, which is the twenty- |first in Palestine, established by Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Or- | ganization of America, and which is {maintalned by Hadassah and a group of Galilean women. will do mission- |ary work of a different kind, from that which made Galilee faméus in the first century. Then the spread of the new religion was the aim of the preachers; today the new “mi sionuries” preach a code of cleanl ness, personal hygiene, health, a knowledge of wholesome food values and efficient housekeeping, and try |to dispel the traditional taboos and {superstitions that surround birth and child rearing. Galilee lies about 700 feet below sea level, and during the incredibly hot summer months |discase spreads rapidly. The nursc in charge of the Galilee station ®was given a ' complete course in the Hadassah Nurses' Training School in Jerusalem. | Since 1922, when the first Hadas. sah welfare clinlc was established, |thousands of mothers have been ilnught personal care during and after pregnancy and the care of their children up to the age of two. In- struction in hygiene and prevention of diseases was only a part of the {task of the nurses and doctors. ¥or {a long time they had an uphill fight {in rooting out ignoranc: and super- {stition. Driving out the “devil of illneas” from a child by applying a hot iron to his stomach was a com- mon practise. The health clinic staffs had to combat the conception of hygiene that called for the tight !shutting of all windows even in the {summer, overdressing and rarely ibathing the children and scldom |bringing them to a doctor for ex- lamination until they were beyond {medical aid. The acceptance of the |rew ideas and methods spread by [the heaith weltare stations has been | |a slow but steady process, and the ‘nuru! and doctors now only occa- sionally meet with instances of gross ignorance.

Dee. 26. (—Women j operation of working women in the of the country made the year 192§ memorable for the part they took in politics. The feminine political strength, which has been accumulating since women got the vote cight years had a chance to 1nake itself because of the presidential election. And the women left no stone unturned. They were on the lecture platform, on the atr and at home in political headquarters of both parties, where special room were prepared for them. Not only were various womens' organizations working zealously for one or the other presidential candidates, bt big organizations hke the General Federation of Wo. men's clubs and the League of Wo- nien Voters concentrated on get. ting women to the polls, regardiess of what party they favored. They played a prominent part in getting out a record breaking number of voters, The federation lias campaigned for years for a larger and more in- telligent vote, The past year, through its department of Ameri- can citizenship, it conducted a $1 000 essay contest in grade and hig schools on “Why I should vot: Virtually every state in the union rarticipated. The League of Wo- men Voters reached 25,000,000 per- sons through its weekly radio “Voters' Service' which began broadcasting ten months before election, Support women of the country gave the Kellogg multilateral peace treaty was outstanding during the year. Since the promulgation of the treaty the general federation of club women, through its depart. ment of international relations, has been working for the treaty’s ratification by the United States senate, Thousands of petitions, signed by hundreds of thousands of names, have been circulated by the 14,000 member clubs and placed in the hands of the nation's law mak- ers, Another step forward by women in 1928 was the creation of the In- ter-American Commission of Wo- men at the sixth Pan-American conference in Havana last spring to investigate the legal status of women in all countrics of North and South America with a view to establishing uniform laws. Miss Doris Stevens was appointed chair- man, The creation of the commission came about through a suggestion by the National Woman's party. The latter organization interjected “equal rights for women” as an fs- sue in the campaign. The members put on an active campaign for Her- bert Hoover, concentrating their efforts in New York city. On November 6 three women were eclected to the house of rep- resentatives. They were Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick, daughter of the late Mark Hanna and widow of the late Senator Medi)l McCormick of Illinois; Mrs, Ruth Bryan Owen, daughter of Willlam Jenpings Bryan, and Mrs. Ruth Baker Pratt, the first woman to be sent to con- gress from New York. Women were anything but idle the past year, too, along humani- tarian lines. Women volunteers of the American Red Cross have con- cluded a record breaking vear for peace-time work. They made 253,- 040 garments, more than 2,000,000 surgical dressings for emergencies, 24,000 Christmas bags for U, 8. soldiers and sailors in foreign serv- ice and 379 books of Braille for the blind At ‘the first Pan-Pacific Women's conference, held in Honoluly, a movement was started in investi- gate conditions under which wo- men are working in the Hawalian Islands.

The maternal death rate, long station- ary, has at last begun to show in- dications of a downward trend. Many agencies, particularly state departments of health, have con- tributed to this achievement, -The children’s bureau has great satis- faction in the part it hay played in the saving of maternal and in- fant life.” An important achievement was the laying of the cornerstons for the new $2,000,000 auditorium in Washington for the D.
