¡X U THE RAIL SPUTTER A particularly bright hoy of 12 years is one of the "shut-ins'* whom Miss Vera Beard looks for­ ward to visiting on her rounds of public health nursing. He is ex­ pecting her long before it (s hu­ manly possible for her to fit in a visit with him along with school inspections, maternity work^dtn. lea, etc., but she Is thinking about him and trying to solve his problem long before she arrives at his home. After tam ing off the highway and driving 18'miles toward Mt. Pitt she has plenty of time to think of all the cheerful news she knows a live-wire boy would like to hear, but she most also remember that her visit must not make him restless and long to take part in the football game she wants to tell him about. Miss Beard’s patient has tubercu­ losis .of the spine or perkaps it Is cured from having been in a cast for a year and given complete rest until this past summer, when he was released and allowed to walk across the room. For the past few months he has later- nated a day in bed with a few steps the next day and has been counting on beginning the new year with going t<> school and playing In the snow. His mother knows that his schooling will be postponed even later than that. Miss Beard and Dr. Oeary do all they can but are worried about one of the boy’s knees that is becoming Inflamed and wish they had met this boy in a clinic when he was many years young­ er. If they can not save this boy they hope to save every other child In the county from develpoing tuberculosis of the bones, of the lungs, or any oth­ er sickness for that matter. Thsl boy is receiving good care in his own home with his mother fol­ lowing instructions carefully to this dread disease, but the big mistake was made three years ago when a quack doctor tried to cure the sore spine with iritatlng “electric rube* until the child de­ veloped a fever each afternoon became too weak for furth­ e r treatments. Later the family moved west settling in their pres­ ent location and after a long time, too long, in fact, they weie put in touch with the County Health Unit which prompt.y ad­ opted them. ________ _ To reach invalids like this as well as the healthy children, the Jackson County Public Health Association recently put into 7 J s.hools the essay contos'., having as its subject, "Why We ShonlJ Buy Christmas S eals’ The inter, est of the children becpnio thor­ oughly aroused as they reallawt that the seals help pay for clln- * ics all over the “county. milk and medical supplies for the sick and innumerable items to keep people wall.
