Experiences At Columbia
University Training
Schools Described By
Medford Faculty Member
Through the training schools of
Columbia unh'erslty, New York
where health receives first emphasis,
members of the Jackson County Pub
lic Health association were taken on
a tour Thursday afternoon b? Miss
Carln Degermark, member of . the
Medford school faculty. Speaking on
health education at the bi-monthly
meeting of the association. Miss Deg
ermarlc brought a wealth of Informa
tion to health worker and guests
and a practical definition of her sub'
Ject, "Health education Is the sum
of all experiences In school and else
where, which favorably Influence
habits, attitudes and knowledge, per-
.talnlng to Individual, community and
racial health."
Miss Dcgermark spent last year
studying at Columbia and was priv
ileged to visit Its famed training
schools, making a health survey In
the Horace Mann school, where many
of the nation's famous children, rep
resenting families of all social ranks,
are pupils.
She found that In advanced circles
tress Is not placed now upon teach
ing the child the "bone of the body"
but his own health assets and liabil
ities. An Increasing measuro of self
guidance, she stated, Is taught In
all safety campaigns, and In the
field of mental hygiene, health edu
cation endeavors to teach self con
trol In small situations.
She quoted her sources of study In
defining the things most Important
In the life of a child as "security and
love," adding sitlsfactlon In doing
purposeful things.
Several Interesting stories were
told by the spsakor of Paul Whlto-
man's son, who la one of the pupils In
the training school. Miss Degcrmark
also quoted clasmates at Columbia
untverMty to show the difference In
problems, confronting westerners and
easterners. A man from the mining
districts of Pennsylvania, ahe stated,
Informed tho class that he had never
Been ft healthy child. If the bright
eyed, rosy cheeked ones on magazine
covers wero "healthy children." Miss
Dcgermark also mentioned the pale
faced children she noted gazing hun
grily 'through tho grill Into an India
cafe, spoiling the meal fur her but
apparently unnoticed by New York
ers. Alt children In the university
training school, she explained, are
given cod liver oil as regularly as
they are served arithmetic here.
A copy of the very scientific and
frank text book, adopted In a New
York high school for sex hygiene was
brought to the meeting by the speak
er to Illustrate the progress, which
has been made In thla field. "Life
and Orowth" is the tltlo of the book.
Miss Dcgermark was tntrodurod by
Mr. R. E. Green, acting a sprogram
chairman, after the meeting was
