Method of Educating Children by
Appealing Through Vision
Is Discussed. '
Discussion centered around the
work of the nurse in the public
school and the home in the after
noon scission of the first conference
of the Oregon Public Health Nurses'
association at the library at 1:30 P. M.
yesterday. Several visiting: nurse
from out of town attended.
Inspection of school buildings was
discussed and the state-wide adoption
of a report blank form for county
nurses was recommended. Under this
system the nurse would make a report
on the sanitary condition of the school
rooms and would .send a duplicate to
the school board and the county su
perintendent. The necessity of having:
such a report standardized before
state-wide adoption, thus obviating
the danger of accepting the recom
mendation of a single nurse was ad
vocated. Interesting; Papers Presented.
in the discussion of the use of
posters and the work of demonstrat
ing in class-room work. Miss Uuth
Young. Multnomah county nurse, told
how placards were uvsed in the class
rooms, the appeal being made through
the tye alone.' In this way the chil
dren are first interested and then led
to ask questions. Miss Martha Sheri
dan followed with a brief resume of
the exact way in which this educa
tive appeal is made to the children.
One of the interesting papers of
the afternoon was presented by Mitui
L,cna Marshall, Portland visiting
nurse, in her discussion of "Home
Visits." "The object of all public
health nursing is two-fold." she said.
"First, to give .skilled nursing care
to the sick in their own homes: sec
ond, to teach personal hygiene, cleanli
ness and the prevention of disease."
A description of a day's work In
the home was given by Miss Frances
Kiernan. a Hood liver county nurse,
demonstrating that the work of the
public health nurse does not end in
the school room, but extends into the
home itself. An example was cited
of a little boy with defective vision.
The visiting nurse called on his home
and finding the mother in ill health,
volunteered personally to take the
child to a physician. Continuing the
investigation further, she found an
other child in the same family suf
fering from malnutrition. This waa
u result of ignorance and not poverty,
she said.
Other MnteH Itenrenenteil.
"The visiting nurse." said Miss
Kiernan, "cannot confine her work
to the school alone. The Bchool is
the field, the home is the labratory."
Visiting nurses from other states
at the conference were: Bess K.
Ijiwler, Kelso, Wash.: Mary A. Zum
walt, Boise, Idaho; Harriet McKinley,
Vancouver. Wash., and Minnie Hein
niann, lewiston, Idaho. Two men at
tended the afternoon session, lr. c.
S. Chase of the college of medicine
of the University of Iowa, and Ir.
Leslie Butler of Hood River, vice
president of the Oregon Tuberculosis
association.
Dr. K. A. Peterson, nationally
known authority on public health,
formerly health director of the Cleve
land public schools and at present
director of public health. National
Ked Cross, will speak at the after
noon session at the central library
today.

Jesse A. Curre Portland rose fan

where, with Rev. S. S. Sulliger of
Kent. Wash., tind Roland G. (Jamwell
of Bellingham. Wash., he acted as a
judge of the Seattle rose show. It was
was the first time that a Portland
rose expert has acted as judge at the
Seattle show. In discussing the show
Mr. Currey said:
"Seattle is making rapid progress in
rose culture and there is no doubt in
my mind that Portland will have to
increase its efforts in rose growing.

GONFRONTED with a raise of lc per quart in the cost of MILK,
the consumer is apt, for the moment, to feel a sense of injustice
all out of proportion with the amount of the raise, because of a
lack of knowledge of conditions of production.
Yet the consumer it is who demands a higher standard of quality- who
votes for the rigid laws that necessitate a costly inspection service, that,
in turn, necessitates improvements that increase property valuations
and taxes.
And Consumers Are Apt to Forget These FACTS
that the Producer carries a double burden of high first-costs and high"
upkeep expense.
that MILK, like every other commodity, is lower in price when pro
duced in quantities ONLY when the entire output is marketed. Thus,
when the consumer cuts down his daily milk allowance the price may be
higher for a longer period than seems necessary, or even further ad
vances may be forced upon the Producer and Distributor.
that the Producer is continually standing a loss on the surplus he is
compelled to produce. '
that winter's losses, due to natural decrease in production and high
feed costs, must be covered by summer's gains if production is to be
continued.
An Averaging of FIGURES
The percentages quoted at the left are doubly interesting in that they
apply to local conditions and were submitted by the Producers and Dis
tributors upon whom you rely for your milk supply. They do not pre-
tend to cover the entire cost of production, as this might make compari
sons appear extreme, but are intended to wake up the public to an ap
preciation of the low cost of the most important of foods.
Study these figures!
There is no substitute for MILK
MILK is the only substance nature pro
duces that is a complete food, containing
all necessary building and repair ele
ments. MILK is the very life of babies
and is indispensable to the health of
every person.
MILK Producers and Distributors ask
only your fair consideration. Having; '
this, they are confident that the con
sumer will co-operate by DRINKING
MORE MILK; first and most important,
for the sake of good health, and after,
as a substitute for less nourishing foods,
to keep living costs down.
