A, Voorhees, M, D, Philadelphia ON WORK OF PAST TWELVE MONTHS | was_completed early In the year and the results, carefully tabulated, furnished an interesting study. One thing was very evident was the need of some !ycten_m_t(: means of taking care of the appalling number of children needing correction of physical defects, especially tonsil and adenoid operations and a special com- mittee was appointed to work out a plan. Later in the year a dental survey was made, and results tabulated as to grades and schools as before. The importance of the physical and dental examinations cannot be overesti- mated, for, having conditions as brought out by th examinations placed square- ly before them, the policy in caring for the health of our schoo! children can be readily determined by those engaged in the work, and placed upon the soundest foundation. The repetition of the physical exami- nation of the children this year is of equal importance, as the results will | show how much progress was made in |the correction of defects during the vear. Shortly before the roll call last year the Norwich chapter announced its in- tention of extending ifs nurding service to branches and auxiliaricZ. The resuit of the ro’l call was not such as to per- mit_this belng done along the lines in- tended, but it was determined that the money’ received from the auxiliaries would be utilized for their benefit where |hossible, and, woring In cooperation with the home demonstration agent of |the farm bureau and our state director |of public health nursing, a study of health needs of ourrural sections was begun, It was soon learned that the town of Lebanon was struggling to have A school nurse, lacking only just what he Norwich chapter could supply. con- |siderab’e moral support and small {nancial support. The amount . as was' $250 and was readily given, the re- | mainder of the nuree's salary being pro- vided by the state board of education {and the town of Lebanon. The nurse started her duties April 1, and a monthly report of her work was filed with our chapter committee, showing a great deal o good work accomplished. As_soon as it became known what the Norwich chapter had done for Leb- lanon, letters and calls were received {continuously from other sections, threagh their district school supervisors, each one presenting their problems an: skig Bur cooperation in the establish- of school nursing, but an investi- n of these proved that only a smal {m rat section or In some cases none of their | districts belonged to our chapter, no fi- nanclal ass ce was given, but we | we glad to know their problems and i d to pw them In touch with other chapters, | This year febanon does not need our help, but already other calls have come {in and we hope to do as much, or more, | also to work out a plan by which neigh- | moring chapters will unite and Jointly {finance a traveling instructor for their |branches and auxiliaries to teach the classes in home nursing. something for which Wwe are constanty haying de- { mands. | Executive Secretary Reports. Miss Edith M. Rockwell, the new e ccutive secretary, made the general re- port for the exeeutive committee. Her renort ‘was'as follo i In looking over the ¥ork accomplish- ed by the Norwich chapter, American | Red Cross, during the past vear I think we can all see why the Red Cross needs a Peace-time Program” and that there is work to be done. ! ne chapter activities are under the |care of special committees you will hear | these detalls special reports later. | The first responsibiity of our organ- Wwho bravely served us during the war. While the largest percentage of |these men are well readjusted in their civilian life, we still have work to do those remsining in hospitals and un- federal tralning. It is to these men devosing first thought and deeply appreciate the privilege of : of service to them, During the summer the work of the hapter became so pressing that it was d to employ an executive secre- to devote her full time to the va- s phases of the work and Miss Rock- I' began her duties on Sept. 15 The second part of our program is the | th work in the Norwich schools and we are beating t'me until after the roll hoping for returns that make pos- jsible some form of dental work among the school children. The survey made last vear disclosed conditions making this work Imperative and we earnestly hope that some plan may be developed | for denta! clinical care for children ear- Iy in the coming year. The various committees eooperated In ng a pageant, The Red Cross of h, Nov. 5th. This is the {first presentation of the pageant in Con- Inecticut and the chapter is justly proud of being able to present to its members such a review of the work belng done at_the present time. We are closing our year consclous of many dutfes done, but with a renewed {purpose to make the coming year one of | even greater promise. Peace in Norw Fome Service Report. The home service report, which was | made by Chairman Eben Learned fol- lows: The home service department respect- fully reports to the ®hapter as haying had a most busy and useful year. It | was the wish of this department that we | |coula close our activities possibly April {1 and certain July * 1921, This was not to be, however, and the men would simply not let us go out of business. In fact we have had new cases right a’ong. |although the Flying Squadron of the | government was supposed to mot only clean up all old cases but eliminate any possibility of new ones. We felt that if | we could only the necessity for using our chapter's money for this pur- pose it could be emploved to greater advantage In the health and school work. As our report will show for prac- tically the first half of the vear our ac- tivitles Instead of diminishing kept up at high pitch and almost seemed to in- crease; when suddenly in a month they dropped to mothing comparativély and we feel now they are gradually lessen- ing month by month until in short white our expense for the men will cease. Wa have stood by them all the time that they needed us and now if they and oth- ers wi'l stand by us in our present cam- palgn we will get all the money neces- sary to carry out the complete program we have visioned. The detalled report showed that frem November, 1920, to October, 1921, the number of familles-to whom service was rendered was 660, fnformation given 180 and §1,369.42 total amount of money spent. School Nurse Service. Dr. Selden, ehairman of the executive committee, called attention to the seri- ous health conditiohs among the Nor- ich school chfldren. Careful surveys were made last vear by physicians and the Red Cross dantist, the funds for the work being furnished by the Req Cross Construction work must be undertaken Getting Rid of A Nasty Temper How Gude’s Pepto-Mangan Relieves Il Humor of Bad Health When Il humor becomes chronic and a man or a woman who should be genial becomes known as a “grouch,” nine times out of ten the cause is phys- ical. When blood gets weak and full of poison it leaves the body weak, the face pale, and causes a tired feeling. There is no endurance. Nerves get all tattered, because in a weak-blooded condition the body is not nourished sufficiently with the oxygen that rich red blood supplies. Gude’s Pepto-Mangan is a blood- builder and when taken in _steady doses for a while it causes a flood of fresh red blood cells to stream through the body, bringing robust health and strength. With good blood, rich and red, there are no “grouches.” Life looks good and pleasures are keenly enjoyed. Druggists have Gude's Pepto-Man- gan in liquid and tablet form. Be sure to_get the genuine with the name| “Gude’s Pepto-Mangan” on the pack- age.

RED CROSS APPEAL IN FIFTH ANNUAL ROLL CALL During this week, in Norwich and throughout the country, the fifth annual Red Cross rol call is going forward. On behalf of the executive committee, the chairman, Rev. Dr. Joseph H.
