AIDS PROGRESS
EXPERIMENTS ON CHILDREN

Washington. May 8. That school
children who are taught in fresh air
class' rooms advance more rapidly in
their studies and make greater im
provement in weight and strength
than children in regular class rooms,
is a conclusion demonstrated by Frank
H. Mann, of New York, before the
Sociological Section of The National
Association for the Study and Pre
vention of Tuberculosis this after
noon. The speaker reported ' on a
series of experiments carried on
Jointly by the New York Committee
on the Prevention of Tuberculosis and
, the Board of ' Education : in which
1 three groups of children were studied
to note the effect of fresh Bfr Upon
them. In one group, the children
were, placed in fresh air classes and
were fed during school hours wth
milk and crackers "morning and af
ternoon; in the second group, the
children were placed in fresh air
classes but were not fed and in the
third group, the children were left
in the ordinary class room under
regular conditions. Every effort was
made to illiminate or equalize in the
comparison such variable factors as
age, home conditions, physical condi.
tions, school conditions, nativity, etc,
The two groups of children in the
fresh air classes were all under
nourished and anaemic at admission.
: : The results of this experiment ex.
tending from September to June,
showed that all of the poorly nourish
ed and anaemic children in the fresh
air classes gained in weight, red cor-
pusels in the blood, general nutrition,
and physical tone. The gains were
made for the most part independently
of the home environment and of the
financial conditions of the children's
family, suggesting that the associa.
tion between poverty and malnutri
tion in school children is not so close
as has been commonly assumed, and
that cases of extreme poverty with
lack of necessary food at home are
not nearly so prevalent as has been
frequently stated. It was also dem
onstrated that, even without, school
feeding, fresh air classes can be run
with advantage to the children of
poor families, although the greatest
benefit was obtained where extra
feeding of children was employed.
"All lines of tuberculosis activity
lead more or less directly back to the
great truth that most of the implan.
tations of this disease occur in child'
hood," was the declaration of Dr.
William Charles White, of Pittsburg,
another speaker this afternoon, in
arguing that all movements for the
betterment of children should center
in the anti-tuberculosis organization
Dr. White pointed out that anything
which anti-tuberculosis societies did
for the welfare of the child was a di
rect contribution to the prevention of
tuberculosis. Dr. John B. Hawes,
2nd, secretary' of the Massachusetts
Trustees of Hospitals for Consump
tives, Boston, declared that direct in
fection of children by their parents or
other members of the family who
have tuberculosis is very largely re
sponsible for the spread of the dis
ease. A large percentage of original
infection of tuberculosis, Dr. Hawes
contended occurs in childhood.
Child Cross? Feverish? Sick?
A cross, peevish, listless child, with
coated tongue, pale, doesn't sleep; eats
sometimes very little, then again ra
venously; stomach sour; breath fetid;
pains in stomach, with diarrhea;
grinds teeth while asleep, and starts
up with terror all suggest a Worm
Killer something that expels worms,
and almost every child has them.
Kickapoo Worm Killer is needed. Get
a box to-day. Start at once. You
won't have to coax, as Kickapoo Worm
Killer is a candy confection. Expels
the worms, the cause of your child's
trouble. 25c, at your druggist.
