Dr. J. H. Selden, president of the Red Cross, who spoke of what had been ac- complished in the past year in the health programme in the schools and outlined what extension of this is aim- ed at for the coming year under the town health board. He told the Rotar- ians that.the annual town meeting is to asked to make an appropriation of $7.500 for this health work in the schools. If this sum is granted the Red Cross will undertake the very im- portant work of dental and oral hy- giene. Dr. Selden and Miss Edith M. Rock- well, the new executive secretary of the Norwich Red Cross chapter, were the guests of the club and had seats at the head table with Richard L. Tar- rant, who presided in the absence of President Lucius Briggs, who lIs at- tending the Rotary convention at Po- land Springs, Me, Dr. Selden Speaks. When introduced by Chairman Tar- rant, Dr. Selden spoke as follows: Just a year ago you gave one an op- portunity of presenting to the Rotary Club what was described as a New Health Program for Norwich. I shall be very glad to tell you today some- thnig of what has beea accomplished during the past year, and of the ad- vanced step which ought soon to be undertaken. An essential feature and, as some of us felt, the first step in this new health | program was the transference of the s nursing service for school children from | the jurisdiction of the Town School Board to that of the Town Health Of- f\er, as was provided in the State Statutes. - This movement was ~misun- derstood in some quarters. It was not undertaken in any spirit of criticism of the school board. But it was felt that the scope of their work was too limit- ed, for their overright was strictyl con- finéd to the pupils in the public schools. This mesnt in Norwich that one third of all Je boys and girls of school age would be denied the advantaze of train- ed, organized supervision.' It was evi- dent that no system of inspection would ghe effective unless all the children were included. This very significant step was taken at the town meeting of last year when this transfer was made. In January, 1920, as you will remember, with the ap- | proval of the school board, the Red Cre had supplied two additional schoo nurs Last October this enlarged work was taken over by the town health offi- cer, who associated with himself as an advisory committee Dr. Brophy, the city health officer, Mr. Graham, Superintend- ent of pudlic schools, Miss Faith Lea- vens, representing the nursing service of the United Woiker, Mr. James Macs pherson, chairman of the public welfare committee of the Chamber of Commerce, and Mrs. W. T. Taiglen, representing the Red Cross. Through the past year the nursing service has been conducted |by Miss Albertine, Miss Derr and Miss Moriarity with marked efficiency. The first advanced step of the present year was a thorough medical children of school age, physicians Dr. nspection made by of Norwich, Dr. La Blackmar, Dr. Driscoll and Dr Ca: The findings of the phys- iciavs were recorded on a series of cards, one for each pupil. A report was sent by the nurses to the parents of the pu- of all four Pierre, pila, calling attention to the physical defects discovered by this inspectien. The value of this inspection in giving direction and increased efficiency to the work of the school nurses will be obvious to you all. The expense connected with this med- ical inspection was met by funds sup- plied by the Red Cross. It has long been recognized that spec- ial attention shoupl be given :to fkhe mouth conditfons of the boys and girls. Nearly all the infections which cause children’s diseases come through the mouth. Nothing, therefore, is more im- portant that scrupulous care of the teeth and mouth. After repeated consultations with the town health officer and his committee it decided that the first step in - the direction of dental and oral hygiene was a dental survey, as moplete as possible showing the mouth conditions of our boys and girls. The necessary funds were s Kirbey undertook this important service. The results of the medical inspectisn and of the dental survey are presented on the card in your hands. ! When this summary was made by Miss Albertine, 1 confess 1 was appalled by the conditions revealed. Nearly half of all the boys and girls show physical defects, some of them of a very sericus nature, certain, unless corrected, to mat- erially handicap them in later life. Of the 5,500 pupils not more than 300 have sound testh ar1 clean mouths. I sup- pose hers Is 10 be found an explana- tion of the fact that over 800 children are known to have diseased tonsils and adenoids, and nearly 300 show evidence of infected glands. On consulting Dr. Prest of New York, one of the most eminent authorities in matters connected with public health, I was assured that conditions in Norwich | are mot worse than those prevailing in other communities without an adequate health policy. But this gave to me, as I think it will to you, very small comfort. Norwich ought *> have an adequate health policy. We have no right to per- mit these conditions to continue, and when the facts are known I think the good people of Norwich will not rest | until they have done every thing 'in their power to assure to the boys and girls of this community tk~t indispensable condition of a fair start in life, sound, healthy bodies. In speaking cf a new health program for Norwich I beg you to note that ws do not overlook, least of all discredit, the splendid service rendered by the va- rious departments of the United Work- ers. 1 cannot escape the feeling that Norwich in the past has failed to ap- preciate the broad and generous work of their organization. It deserves your full confidence and should receive gen- erous support. Bearly in November the United Workers plan a general campaign for the funds required by its enlarging work. ) trust the response of Norwich may be prompt and generous. But -many of us feel, and I am sure you will sympathize with us, that the proper care if ‘the health of the boys and girls of Norwich belongs to the com- munity as a whele, and it ought to be directed and maintained by the com- munity, We provided every. crild with the opportunity of an education. = For their own sake ,and no less for the sake of the town, they miust be trained and fitted for their work in the world.
