Health Education—The new emphasis
For a long while, the business ot
making and keeping children healthy
was left entirely to
the family and its
doctor. As far as
children are con
cerned, the results
have not been sat
isfactory. It is now
pretty certain, that
to be healthy in a
modern suround
ing. a person must
be in possession of
the "how” and the
“why” of ways of
living. Not only this, bui the prime
importance of health must be realized
and ■ appreciated before any results
can be had. So many things crowd
ing in, parents have been found to
put other considerations before
health. Laws of health neglected,
steady work is impossible and funds
with which to pay for the services
of-a physician are not saved up. The
free clinics are so crowded by these
unfortunates that adequate attention
is not possible. No wonder that in

,Harlem group shows thrice as high
tuberculosis death rate as other
groups and other alarming evidences
that the forces which break down
health are wining a battle.
So, those who are educating chil
dren—teachers, school doctors and
nurses are hiking up the campaign
with renewed vigor. They are begin
ning with the children, the parents
of the future. If the parent of today
will listen, these children will bring
home much information and many
suggestions which mothers and fath
ers may use for themselves as well
as for their children.
Now, when your child comes home,
saying that a day has been spent by
teacher in weighing and measuring
her class, do not think the school has
thrown away a day. Rather, get
busy and see if your child is up to
the standard by the weight and
height chart for ages. This scale
may be obtained through the Ameri
can Child Health Association, in
New York City. And, after finding
that your child is underweight and
under height, get busy and find out
why. If you are sent for by the
school, hurry over, without delay.
And, combining new knowledge with
your own common sense, take steps to
correct any errors which exist. While
yon-are at the school you may learn
that the reason your child minds so
poorly is that he hears only half or
less of what is said or done. His
nervousness which has always an
noyed you turned out to be due to
poor eye-sight and strain which may
be relieved by proper glasses.
The next surprise in store for you
may be a new kind of note book
wliifh is filled, not with spelling or
arithmetic, but pictures of vegetables,
dairy products, fresh air ideas and
the like. Instead of exclaiming:
' What’new fad next?” take an in
terest in it, read its plans for break
fasts, dinners and suppers and, try
them out for the children. That’s
what they’re for; and give them your
sympathy and understanding. ler
haps you may be urged to supply a
towel each week soap and a con
tainer for it. Will you crossly grum
ble, or will you express pleasure over
the progress in education, when you
pack this in the school kit?
No longer are school buildings the
high temples of the worshipped
“Three R’s.” They are the work-shops
where pupils are working out the
ways and means of good living. Being
large houses with windows, they lend
themselves to teaching methods of
obtaining fresh air indoors. There
are a number of ventillation systems
used in various schools and both
teachers and pupils have to learn
how to help in their operation. In
some, it is not necessary to open
the windows at all, as large machines
in the basement circulate the air. In
others, the air is changed directly
by raising the windows three or four
times in the morning and twice in
the afternoon while the children
stretch and move.
These big school houses have to be
kept clean and nearly everywhere
this is an unnecessarily heavy bur
den, on the school janitor. Children^
throw papers and food about when
they have been taught not to do this
at home. For that reason, “clean
up” campaigns are a part of the
regular school programme. Lessons
on beautiful paintings and colors and
the use of them in the school, are
toward the end that children shall
want to have cheerful surroundings.
But, children are in school only 5
or 6 hours each day. For the rest of
the twenty-four, the parent must
"carry on.” Under their guidance,
there must be play in the open, up
until but hot later than 7 p.m.; there
must be long hours of sleep for
growth, in rooms with windows wide
open; there should be quiet in the
sleeping room and not more than
two in a bed; there should be fre
quent bathing and early rising, so
that breakfast may be eaten slowly
and the walk to school need not be
hurried..
This health programme may seem
a large order to the busy parent, but
it is not half as large as the loss in
nervous '•nergy, money and happi
ness which comes from neglecting it.

would rather travel than eat. He
likes to meet new people, and go new
places. He wants change. He is
generous, needs to cultivate sticktoit
iveness, and has enough pride to;
make him want to have the respect i
of his friends, and associates. He
will make a splendid lawyer, and
should take up this profession.
D. R. B.—This writer is a man who
tells us that he *s having a great deal
of trouble at home. “My wife never
does anything to please me,” he says,
and the reason is plain enough. This
man w'ants to be boss. He wants other
people to always do what he wants
done. He is quick to speak sharply,
and is always hard to please. Instead
of trying to please his wife, and
friends, he wants them always to be
doing tilings for him. D. R. B. has
plenty of natural ability, but he is
so wrapped up in himself, and so anx
ious to have other people wait on
him, that he finds the whole world
is wrong. It isn’t the world, D. R. B.
It is you, and you will find happiness
by changing you way of thinking.
Frank J.—You like rich food, and
comfort. You are generous, and like
to have other people have the same
things. You have very emphatic ideas.
If you think a :hing is so, then there
is no changing you. This is not a
good habit unless you hold it in
check. It is fine to have decided
ideas, but remember you may be mis
taken. You should study electricity,
and become an electrician.

Every man, woman and child will
occasionally over-indulge. But don’t suf

to do so. You can so easily sweeten and
settle a sour, upset stomach with a little

guards the breath. Women know what
it does for nausea—or sick headache.
And when children have over-eaten—are
bilious, constipated or otherwise upset—
give them a little of the same, pleasant
