Public Health Nurse's Report All of the town schools of Ward County, except Sawyer, have been in spected by the Red Cross Public Health Nurse during the past three months. As the- report will show many interesting results of the Pub lice Hhealth work have been found. In some cases the' number of correc tions exceeds the number of defects found. The corrections mean the de fects taken care of up to the present time. The people of the towns and the surrounding territory of each town become as enthused as the children with the Health Game and are even so interested that they will come to the school and bring the children of pre school age with them for the nurse to inspect. Parent meetings have been held in all the places and have been very well attended, even one which was held on a day of a blizzard. In one town a meeting was held in the church basement, and the nurse was asked to speak, and a little tot in school enjoying the nurse's stories and talks on Health when she heard this, timidly approached the nurse and said "I am going to hear you preach tonight." One little fellow event home from school and told his mother that the nurse came into his room and asked them why she came to the school and no one knew but him and he had to tell her. He did too, saying, "To fu migate us."
