outbreak of communicable disease school sanitary inspec tions and restaurant operating conditions have highlighted the local health unit interests recent ly an outbreak of infectious jaun dice which began in the summer of 1052 and continued through the fall in the richvale markham twp area has produced another crop of some 15 cases of jaundice most of these are in the richvale area but some have occurred at a distance from the centre unfort unately modern medicine still knows very little of the method of transmission of infectious jaun dice from one person to another the usual seasonal increase in chickenpox and measles is occurr ing but tapering off another forward step in the fight against tuberculosis has been accomplished by adding an additional chest xray clinic to the xewmarket area this additional clinic will supply free chest xray examinations for any person in the community on the recommen dation of their family physician and will be held in the health unit office every eight weeks 453 routine health inspections of pupils were made by the public health nurses last month and 130 special inspections were made of purs for special reasons other than the routine program 172 pupils received vision tests during the month flans for expanding the school health services depend upon the health unit being able to add one additional public health nurse to its present staff of seven nurses in order to obtain federal health grants to apply toward the expan sion of school health services the york county health unit is required to have a basic staff of eight public health nurses as a foundation upon which to build more service thereupon it is possible to obtain federal health grants to provide another two additional nurses to bring the total to ten nurses because of the predominantly rural nature of the area such an increase of staff three nurses for the price of one rurso will make expansion of the school health program possible as well as initiation of other health program activities legion ladies organize some forty members were initi ated on monday feb 10th at the opening meeting of the ladies auxiliary of the stouffville legion besl by mrs m
