"" Ah!--Chopin's Ballade in A-Flat!" HEN the pianist's fingers strike the first few notes of this charming ballade, a thousand people in the audi- ence recognize it, How many people in an average audience would have known it twenty-years ago? Very few Today our people know good music. They not only, know it when they hear it, but even the youngsters can in- stantly attach the proper names to most of the classics, Quite a change from the days when most if us pronounced "Chopin" --if we had the temerity to pronounce it at all-- as we spoke of a well known exercise with an axe, We all know what has brought about this change, We all know that music has come into our homes, came through the ordinary piano, then piano, then through the talking the radio. But what about the music-producing mechanism itself? If you stop and think a moment, you will realize that the greatest agency in this work has . Advertising told us about these new things. It created in us a desire to hear better music and to possess wonderful contrivances. And because we bought, we en- abled manufacturers to produce these things at lower and lower cost, and to continually improve them in quality. Advertising today brings us the very latest news abouf the things which enable us to have better music in our homes. And it brings us the same kind of news about things that will make our lives happier machine advertising.

It is worthy of nbte, regarding the Infant Mortality that a number of babies were brought to Oshawa Hos- pital, from outside centres, for care and treatments, and with the atten- ding mortality increase. This is in- cluded in our report. Clinics Two Welfare Centres are open, one Tuesday and one Thursday of each week. At the Clinic babies are weigghed and the mothers instructed in the routine care of the baby. The supervision of the well baby is our greatest guarantee of its fu- ture health, No sick baby is treated in the Clinics, but it immediately re- ferred to the family physician. Each session of the Clinic is at- tended by a practitioner, who gives his services in an advisory way to the mothers. Ii the baby is under the immediate care of a physician outside, no in- terference 1s made in care or pre- paration of formula, thereby main- taining and protecting the medical profession and its business interests] mm a conservatory way.

' 7 School Nursing Service Since the amalgamation of the two services, that of the two Public Health Nurses and two Public School Nurses, a little over a year ago, we are hut now prepared to give in de- tail a somewhat comprehensive re- port of this service, For administration purposes the City was divided into four Districts, one Nurse in each District, having complete charge of all services per- taining to that District for Public Health and School Work. Each Nurs€ is giving three half days each week to each of the schools in her district, This works out to greater service than previuos arrangements did, and incurs no over-lapping whatever, The Malnutrition referred to above requires possibly some explanation, as these figures are derived from the number of children who show 10 per cent or more underweight, when every scholar is weighed at the Fall opening of schodl. However, they are judged by the standard scale of weights and measure, and no doubt race and stature should enter into the decision of this division, Three Dentists are working for the benefit of the underprivileged chil- dren, two giving two half days each week and one giving one half day, Since the amalgamation of the two services, the Dental Work has as- fumed an all year service, thus giv- ing greater service to the schools during vacation season, Two Doctors were appointed in April of this year to engage in the medical examinations of school pupils, Pwo half days of each week are given to this purpose, and, while the service was started late in the school year, considerable has been accom- plished in the four months given over to Medical examination, Children of Primary Grades ex- amined--650 and 305 parents present. The Medical Examinations will continue, throughout the coniing year, for all Primary Grades and Fourth Book Grades. Through the year, a campaign for active immunization for Scarlet Fever was put through in all schools, with the result that 1107 school chil- dren received four doses of Scarlet Fever Toxin. Toward the end of the year 169 students were actively im- munized against Diphtheria, This campaign for Diphtheria Immuniza- tion will continue in the following term. 45 249 71 11 A iated Org Our Health program is not com- lete without the co-operation of the ocal Red Cross Society, assisting in many ways. This year the Society has supplied to our Department bed linen and bedding, pneumonia jack- ets, and has equipped patients during illnesses of tagion in rooming houses, (27 of our patients have re- ceived such help), and has been of the greatest assistance to us in carry- ing out our duties. Sine Bosiety, hava supporied and equipped the Fres ir tage for the benefit of our school children. It was our privilege to select 113 children, who benefited greatly from this outing. 2 The Rotary Club haye continyed their interest in our Health activi- ties, building a spacious Fresh Air Cott; for our wunderpriviledged school children . The large number of children chosen by us for this outing has en- tailed many extra calls, but surely a most beneficial assistance in our Health program.

Babson En- dows Institute for Women FIRST OF ITS KIND Florida is Selected for Lo- cation of New Sé¢hool Wellesley, Mass, Dec. 30.-- Mrs, Roger W. Badson will an- nounce, on New Year's Day, her intention of endowing a college to train women In connection with business and investments. She": naming the institution Webber College after her daughter and granddaughter, Webber College will do for women what the Bah- son Institute is doing so success- fully for men. Webber College is something cn- tirely unique in this history of education for women, The found- ing of this college is as great a step today as was the founding of the first women's college by Mary Lyon ninety years ago. President Selected The president of the college is Mr. Austin H. Fittz, who has been in charge of the Finance Depart- ment at Babson Institute, and the new Dean is Miss Beatrice Grart, of Montreal, who has been con- nected with the camp work of the Canadian Pacific Railroad in the Rocky Mountains. Many wonder why Florida has been selected for the location cf this school, but Mrs, Babson states that this selection was made only after most careful study, Al- though New England is today a great centre for colleges and other educational institutions, yet this s largely accidental, she believes, Other sections of the country, es- pecially Calilornia and the Souta, are far more suited eclimatically for educational work, Located in Florida Webber College is located in the famous Ridge Section known as the "New England of I'lorida" where an educational community has al- veady heen started known as Bab- son Park, Florida, Here the girls will be able to combine with their studies, throughout the entire win- ter, all sports such as golf, tennis, riding, boating, and swimming, thus developing the girls physical- ly as well as mentally and spiritual- ly. It is said that this is the first school in the world organized un- der the educational and charitable laws to be operated without profit to teach women business. Further- more, the short intensive course of less than four months and the modern methods employed make it even more unique in connection with the education of women, As Mrs. Babson has been working on her plans for many months, the college is already prepared to open, and the first classes will start Monday, January 9, 1928, OSHAWA COWS ARE T.B. TESTED (Continued from page 3) spection of Slaughter Houses, Dairy Farms, Dairies, and of Meat and Milk, and the sanitary methods under which these great staple food products were produced, dur- ing the year ending October 31, 1927, My inspection of the milk end of this work is carried on through the adopted principle of assisting the producer to supply a clean, wholesome, disease-free product. The conditions in, and around, the stables, yards, milk-house, etc., are carefully looked into, The question of light, ventilation, cubic air space per cow, is fully consid- ered. The condition of the animals, their health, constitution and gen- eral evidence of care and groom- ing are noted, and friendly advice given, where deemed advisable, looking to a clean, well cooled, and wholesome product. The vast majority of the 96 pro- ducers of milk or cream, etiber or both, supplied to this City, are anxious to co-operate in every way possible with the Inspector, to en sure their product will regularly grade No. 1, but, as is invariably the case in every line of endeay- our, there is always a limited few who are more or less indifferent, and it is this limited few who cause fully 90 per cent. of the Milk In- spector's troubles, Without doubt, the most potent factor in the hands of the Milk Inspector for determining the pur- ity, or cleanliness, of any individ ual milk producer's product is the Sediment Test, It has been pretty thoroughly demonstrated that from 90 to 95 per cent of the Baec- teria in Milk get ther: through the dirt that gets into the pail dur- ing milking operations. The Sedi- ment Test exposes this dirt, and incidentally exposes also the care- less producer. During the year, some 1,000 of these tests were made, and where the disc showed an abnormal amount of dirt, the farm interested was visited, the cause ascertained, and remedial measures then advised. e,098 cows, representinfi 96 farms, are the source of supply for the milk and cream needs of the citizens of Oshawa. 172 of these, representing 16 farms, are the source of supply for cream only. Every one of these 172 cows is properly T. B. tested. Of the pe maining 926 cows, which form the source of the milk supply, 281 are T.B. tested, and 123 of these 281 are fully Covernment Aecredited. All of this milk. is pasteurized be- fore sale to the comsumer. During. the year, 1 have made a total of 316 T.B. Tests, from which there were 22" reactioms. These reactors . were immediately disposed of, as required by law. Therefore, of the 1,098 cows that form the source of the milk and cream supply of the city, 461 are now T.B. Tested, and the en- tire supply of both milk and cream is fully pasteurized. During the vear, a total of 286 visits was made to the farms, from which milk is delivered to the city dairies, these visits being in comn- nection with the work of inspec- tion. 43g visits were made, during the year, to the several slaughter houses engaged in the slaughter- ing of animals for the city's meal supply. During these visits a total of 2347 animals was slaughtered, representing 1122 cattle, 418 calves, 644 hogs, and 165 lambs In 41 of these, Tubercular Lesions were more or less in evidence. 37 of the cattle showed T. B. Livers. » 2 of the 'Cattle showed T. B. Livers, and diffused Tuberculosis of the Thoracic Cavity. 1 calf and 1 hog were so badly affected with T.B., that their em- tire carcassse were destroyed. In the case of the cattle, all of the diseased livers, together with the front quarters of both those animals whose Thoracic Cavities were diseased, were destroyed. The sanitary condition in, and PAGE around, the slaughter houses' ed a very marked impro over that of a year or two The quality of the slaughtered ranged from prime. So far as I have been in ¢ with the meat and of the durin gthe year, not ome po meat, diseased, or unfit for man consumption, has left slaughter houses, for the pu . of sale, in the year just end WEIGHT OF DEAD PIG SUFFOCATES CHI Riviere au Rat, Que., Dec, 2 Death by suffecation under weight of a dead pig was the' of Roger Rivard, 5 years of of La Tuque, Que.
