announcement that last friday would be observed as garbage or tin can collection time brought them more business than all the town teams could handle during the day consequently the work had to be carried on the following day until all the rubbish mostly tins was conveyed to its final disposal in the town dumping grounds the manner in which the citizens heaved great piles of tins from the rear of their premises and deposited ready for the collectors was in itself suffi- cient justification for the undertak ing on the part of the council all these ruhbish piles would each be a breeding spot for flies hence the community is in that much more sanitary condition by having them assembled in the dumping ground as much of this materia had accu mulated for years the undertaking next year will not be so great as the dumping ground presents an unsightly view from the north of obrien avenue the council will take steps to have it shut in with a cedar hedge also it may be possi ble to apply a chemical to the old tins that will hasten their departure into nothingness the tribune is in receipt of several letters concerning the tin can day held last friday only communica tions that bear the signature of the writer can be published each letter however which we are unable to print were of a jocular nature and one writer says that after visiting the dump they realized that it must have been

ultimate object in view the building up of healthier happier canadians prenatal is one of the most im portant in spite of all our educa tion today the greatest single cause of deaths in infants is due to pre maturity in 1923 toronto there were 923 deaths under 1 year of age 257 due to prematurity 14s within the first week of life 41 within the first month and 18 over 1 month regular visits to a doctor and den tist are essential in this period and a well balanced diet the diet and nutrition of the mother very largely determine the strength and vitality of the first teeth ofthe child preschool period is also very im portant for it is in this period death and disease pile up their big gest score dr arnold gesell of yale university says there are ten times more deaths in the preschool than the school period suscepti bility to communicable disease is greater in the younger child 80 of deaths from diptheria occur under five years of age of all deaf ness 13 of all cripples and consider able portion of blindness occur in the preschool period our educational failures the maladjustments and the behaviour disorder of the school be ginner are symptoms of what we left undone the work done in stouffville in cluded a visit to every home where there were children also to any home needing advice or instructions regarding health matters or bedside nursing total population 1086 number homes visited 170 number people seen 570 3 mothers conferences were held total attendance 37 prenatal 4 preschool 4 school u 3 adults f 26 at these conferences health pos ters and a model layette were dis played and literature distributed children were weighed and meas ured and advice given re diet hygiene and general care 2 home nursing classes for adults wore also held general care of the sick was demonstrated out of the 14 babies seen 11 were breast fed it is a wellknown fact that the breast fed baby has the sbet chance of survival and healthy childhood the next best substitute is cows milk for the childs proper growth and develop ment it also has considerable effect on the preservation of the first teeth in my visits to 92 preschool children i think incorrect feeding is the outstanding defect and the cause of some cases of malnutrition faulty nutrition win also result in dental caries through its effect upon the saliva regular visits to the dentist are necessary for the care of the temporary teeth in the preschool period the child forms habits which influence his whole future life so too much em phasize cannot be placed on the four essentials to good health proper food rest exercise and fresh air day and night correction of defects are a problem for instance an- ortho pedic case was found that needed medical and perhaps surgical care at the earliest possible 11101 or it would be toqjate to have a success ful correction made no doctor was being consulted dr w j bell held a childrens clinic in stouffville march 25th and the following is the report given there were 54 in atendancs and 75 defects located as follows adenoids 12 tonsils 1z teeth 11 enlarged glands 13 malnutrition 5 golture 12 orthopedic 4 heart 1 infantile paralysis 2 infants 7 preschool 11 school 36

sanders with messrs f w silvester and f w marshall coming second the president dr sangster was accorded a unanimous vote of thanks for his donation of land to the park property the first of july program was discussed at some length and the executive delegated to push ahead with arrangements v room teaching stories health plays and songs 3 home nursing and first aid lessons total number of school children examined by the nure 24 9 total number defects suspected- by the nurse 568 out of the 249 examined only 186 belong to stouffville and 63 to the country the number who have had measles 203 diptheria 11 whooping cough 108 chicken pox 129 mumps 118 scarlet fever 26 rheumatism 4 total 613 number vaccinated were 156 and 93 not vaccinated suspected defective vision 58 suspected adenoids 5 suspected disease tonsils 98 defective teeth 192 enlarged glands 67 goiture 6s malnutrition 47 orthopedic 2 total 5 264 school visits were made to the homes and it was found that 28 tonsilectomies and 29 cases adenoids had- been removed in the preschool period or shortly after entering school there were also ah unusu ally large number br children at tending the dentist regularly and having both temporary and perman ent teeth filled notwithstanding these facts there are still 69 with defective teeth 39 with diseased tonsils 18 underweight for height 2 with goiture the children who are underweight for height or malnutrition may be due to physical defects or faulty health habits regular vi3its to the dentist for the care of temporary or permanent teeth are also ssontials to good health proper food rest exercise and fresh air day and 1 jght have also considerable effect on the general health of the child there are232 with- defective vision this would not only hae an effect on the general ljalth of a child but would make considerable difference in their progress at school ventilation of a room is also very important children study very much better in a properly aired room on the basis of iso days in the year the average child misses 11 days from school 6 out of these are for illness 2 out of these are for common colds after completing my survey of the school the teachers very kindly tccl charge of the daily classroom inr ction for cianlinesj and c itn- municable an individual health re cord was made out for each child and stars given wnre the health rules had been kept only those records which the child is responsi ble for himself were taken into ac count however the most important health habits take place in the home and this method of keeping a record at school acts as a stimulant to practicing health habits at home this should be a pleasure to the child and is only meant to be en couraging and interesting five home nursing and first aid classes were held for the higji school girls with a total attendance of 125 these classes included in struction in bathing a baby night and day clothing bed making care of the sick such as preparing a tray and serving it treatment in simple emergencies and first aid alio ban daging r before concluding i would like to make three recommendations 1 dental and medical inspection per iodically for tho schools 2 mbre time spent on physical exercise and outdoor sports encouraged sports teach children courage cooperation and control of temper 3 pupils be encouraged on a knowledge of health habits and all round

dear sir since the council of last year pur chased a piece of ground at the south east of obrien avenue for a dumping ground i entered a big protest and there was a petition against it it is somewhat of a sur prise to find that some of those who signed the petition have ignored it by putting out their rubbish for col lection last friday since the can collection day my opposition is more than justified is the council going to disgrace our village by piling rubbish on the very door step of one of the best streets in town the reeye and councillors should have more respect for them- of the
