Ssome time ago The Advance was pleased to publish some able verses by a frienmd of this paper. This week anâ€" other poem from the same AbDle is given herewith:â€" Memories (By "Nature‘s Dreamer‘") Memories, "swert memories" Come like refreshing rain. Forgot are life‘s grim struggles; Youns days come back again. t rbam again through shady lanes And hear the wild birds sing. I gather flowers from the wood, And hear those church bells ring. But memories, like floating dreams, Tso scon they pass away, But their happy recollections Wiil buoys u in life‘s fray. Memories the same able pen M6 "What is a County Health Unit, and how is the amount of sickness and the number of deaths lessened? Ths anâ€" swer is simpleâ€"education otf the peopie in the prevention of disease by a fuliâ€" time highlyâ€"trained staff of doctor. nurse and sanitary officsr. All our larger cities have such a staff with the result that the people in the cities are becoming healthier (but not happier) than those living in the rural districts. In Loendon, for example there is a fullâ€" time Medical Officer of Health, a Saniâ€" tary Inspector, Public Health Nurses. School Nurses, Victorian Order of Nurses, insurance company nurses. Child© Welfare Clinics and Prenatal Clinics. The services of these organizâ€" ations are free to those who are unable to puy, or if not entirely free the charges are nominal. Those living in the country have the advantages pf few if any, of such organizations and they are just as deserving, if not more so, than the city folk. The County Health Unit can give community the same kind of help in preventing disease as the fullâ€"time doctors and nurses do in the cities. "In the towns, villages and townships, ons of the doctors is chosen as Medical Officer of Health, usually the most popular and busiest doctor in the comâ€" munity, and he is paid from $25 to $100 or perhaps a little more for his services. You can appreciate that it is imposâ€" sible for him to spend hours and hours of his time educating the people how they can prevent illness, The County Health Unit has a fullâ€"time Medical Officer of Health who has taken special training in preventive medicine. He will have nothing else to do but look after the health of his community. If at the end of one or two years he canâ€" not show a lessening of the number of deaths, he will lose his job in all likeliâ€" hood. He should soan banish diphâ€" theria from among the childrenâ€"toxâ€" oid, toxoid, toxoid, just three tiny doses. Smallpox should be as scarce as chickâ€" en‘s teeth. There are too many childâ€" ren who have not been vaccinated against smallpox. On several occasions The Advance has made reference to the proposal for the "County Health Unit" system, as it is called. This system has actually been in force for some years in the North Land though in modified or restricted way. There is an organization to lock after this district in health matters but the territory is so large that the wonâ€" der is that results are as good as they are. It certainly must be admitted that the provincial health organization in this North is doing excellent work, and that it is worth many times whatâ€" ever it may cost. It looks after all the unorganized territory and it has an enormous contract on its hands and all things considered must be termed both useful and successful. If the plan were developed to include three or four simiâ€" lar staffis it would be even more effective. In ‘such a case it would be following out the County Health Unii plan. The matter should ‘be of intesrâ€" est to all concerned in the true piroâ€" gress of the country, and for this reaâ€" son The Advance has in the past pubâ€" lished references to the County Health Unit plan so earnestly advocated by the Social Service Council of Ontario. For the same reason there is given herewith an article headed, "Health Unit for Every County," and written by "The Family Doctor" in The Farmer‘s Advocate. "The Family Doctor" says: "Some two or three years ago I first heard of a County Health Unit. It was a doctor from Quebec who explained its workings before a medical convenâ€" tion that I was attending. He was keenly enthusiastic about its vailue especially in rural districts. Recenitly the at Ottawa became inâ€" terested in it and now as I understand, the expense,of a County Health Unit is shared equally by the Dominion Govâ€" ernment, the Provincial Governmen’t and the county. "Quebec is the pioneer in this experiâ€" ment, and has been followed by British Columbia and Saskatchewan (naturally â€"the healthiest place in the whole world). Quebec nt present has sevenâ€" teen County Health Units in operation amnd expects to have eight more within a short time. This Province is one of the ocldest and is quite conservative. I am satisfied that the rural people must have been greatly benefitted, otherwise the scheme would have been dropped before now. "You will be interested in hearing the results in one of the counties, for example Beauce County, where the County Health Unit was instituted in 1925. The deaths in that community during 1926 were 643, and two years later was 487, a decrease of 156. Quebec has had a high mortality rate among infants and you will be glad to hear of such spllendid improvemenit. The results obtained in Béeauce County were duplicated in the other communiâ€" ties that had established County Health Units. HEALTH UNIT PROPOSAL URGED FOR FVERY GOUNTY "Just yesterday, a doctor asked me which was the more serious disease, inâ€" fantile paralysis or scarlet fever. I naâ€" turally saxi infantile paralysis because whenever a few cases occur the newsâ€" papers broadcast it and everybody is interested and a few frightened, but little notice is taken if a case of scarlet fever develops in the neighbourhood. He claimed scarlet fever was the more serious because of the danger of damâ€" age to the heart which may be crippled for life. A crippled arm or leg, accordâ€" ing to him, is not as serious as cripâ€" pled heart, and I believe he is righ:t. Scariet fever must cease to exist. We cannot afford to allow our children to "Family Doctor" Writes in Interesting and Informative Way About Every County and District of Canada. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO so and so the jail term was operative. It was discovered that he not only had no license for selling goods in town or taking orders but also he was the required license to opsrate the car he was using. This resulted in a penâ€" alty that had the alternative of ten days, and there being the tenâ€"day penâ€" alty for not having the license for doâ€" ing business in Haileybury he is spendâ€" ing twenty days at the jail in Haileyâ€" bury. The incident should be a warnâ€" ing to others who break the law in this particular. The Kirkand Lake Northern News last week says:â€""After a four months struggle from a severe form of septic poisoning, during which the hand of death was close at times, Dr. Bob Armâ€" KIRKLAND LAKE DOCTOR TO RECUPERATE N SOUTH stong, well known and beloved medical practitioner in this district for the past 14 years, has so far recovered that he was able to leave for Toronto on Monâ€" day. Mrs. Armstrong left on Saturâ€" day by motor for the Queen City. It is the doctor‘s intention to remain in Toâ€" ronto for a month to receive further medical attention, prior to leaving for his old home, a few miles south of Tornâ€" bury. Ontario. If he can get away from hoeing in his brother‘s prize corn patch or caring for their renowned Shorthorn herd, two things that Armâ€" strong Bros. are noted for throughout that part of Ontario, he and his wife will spend the month of «August at the beautiful Wasaga Beach resort. His friends here, which means everybody, are very gratified for the recovery he has made and wish him a®most pleasâ€" ant summer, to regain his former roâ€" bust health." Itinerant salesmen should take warnâ€" nz from the recent fate of a man who struck Haileybury and proceeded to do business in that town without the reâ€" quired licenses. He was picked up by the police for peddling without a license and was assessed $39.50 or twenty days in jail. He was not able to produce the money or at any rate he failed to do "The County Health Unit is a forâ€" ward step in making our rural comâ€" munities healthier, and health gcoes with happiness. I hope we will see them established in every province in Canada." s Lack of Licenses Sends Salesman to Jail Term "The Medical Officer of Health of the County Health Unit will do his part to banish scarlet fever. He will train the mcthers how to feed their babies so that they will not have rickets and fatal diarrhoeas. He will establish prenatal clinics with the result that it will be as safe forâ€"a mother to have a child in that community as in the best hospital in the city. FPinally he will be interested in the middleâ€"aged and his diseasesâ€"high blood pressure, heart disease, Bright‘s disease and cancer.

Et 8 i9 Huntingdon Gleaner:â€"Eight years in prison, thirty straps, and then deporâ€" tation will convince a couple of United States gunmen who held up three gasoâ€" line stations that Toronto is no place for their activities. In demanding senâ€" tence the Crown Attorney said: "U.S. gunmen can‘t come over to Canada and make this a hunting ground. We have got to stamp that out." And there is no doubt that other artists of this sort over the border will take the hint. Following is the Moose Creed:â€""Love thy country, and be a loyal peaceful citizen . thereof. Strive to make thy country happy, rather than splendid; peaceful, rather than given to war; conâ€" tented, rather than turbulent; good, rather than glorious; devoted to ideals, rather than to conquests; and known for the happiness of its people, rather than for the extent of its domain." In her comprehensive report Miss Smellie stated there had been a conâ€" siderable increase in the free work of the Order. This was a natural sequence of unemployment, and the social probâ€" lems encountered were very difficult ones to meet. A nursing staff of 303 operated in 74 centres of Canada. They made 648,545 visits to 64,356 patients, an increase of 143,389 visits over last year to 3,000 adâ€" ditional patients There were 14,218 obstetrical cases,~ with 28 maternal deaths, and 312 infant deaths. The amount collected in fees by local assoâ€" ciations were $268,057. "We are not satisfied," Miss Smellie said, "that we are devoting sufficient time to intelliâ€" gent and effective prenatal work and wish to give it special consideration this coming year. It would appi>ar that many more patients are taking advanâ€" tage of the nursing service for followâ€" up work and instruction on retuum from hospital." Following luncheon given to the deleâ€" gates by Rt. Hon. George P. Graham and Mrs. Graham, in the Chateau Laurier, delegates were registered and the business of the annual meeting was opened. A message from the Viscounâ€" tess Willingdon was read, rgretting her absence from the meeting. Her Excelâ€" lency is the honorary president of the Order. The national office staff, Miss Smellie told the delegates, was now up to strength and ready to meet not only the nseds of existing centres, but each member was keen to arouse new interâ€" est and to interpret the service at every cpportunity. arrangements for area decentralization whereby eastern and western supervisors established headquarters at Moncton and Regina, proved very satisfactory. New district centres were established at Kirkland Lake and Braeside and in Regina. For some years past the Victorian Order of Nurses has been doing good work in Timmins and there is general interest here in the progress of the Orâ€" der. Accordingly reference to the anâ€" nual meeting of the V.O.N. at Ottawa last week will not be out of place. The national work of the Victorian Order of Nurses, with its problems of health and education, was reviewed by Miss Elizabeth L. Smillie, chief superintendâ€" ent of the Order, at the thirtyâ€"second annual meeting of the board of govâ€" ernors which opzned on Wednesday afternoon in the Chateau Laurier at Octawa. Eight scholarships were awarded in 1929â€"30, and the nurses will shortly return to districts in which their serâ€" vices were most required. At the reâ€" quest of the Department of Indian Afâ€" fairs a nursing survey was made in Ontario, of six Indian reservations, and a report returned to the Department. At the close of the afterncon session the delegates were guests of Mrs. A. C. Hardy at tea at the Parliamentary Reâ€" staurant. Mrs. George Black will enâ€" tertain at dinner for the nurses of the Order attending the meeting.
