is a member, and which resulted
in the establishment of the
league's kindergarten for deaf
children. The school was estab
lished in January of 1953, and
for the first year and a half of
its existence, Mrs. Bartels was
the instructor. She is a gradu
ate of Central Institute for the
Deaf, Washington university.
The honored woman said yes
terday that the school here, as
well as others of its kind, prove
that the deaf child can learn to
speak and to utilize lip reading,
and that they further prove the
importance of early education.
In accepting the award Thurs
day night, Mrs. Bartels stressed
that credit is due every service
league member for the success
of the kindergarten.
In addition to her work with
the Junior Service league and
the league kindergarten, Mrs.
Bartels is superintendent of the
early-service kindergarten, First
Presbyterian church, and is a
member of Vesper circle of that
church. She is also a member of
Roosevelt Parent-Teacher asso
ciation, works with the Jackson
county chapter of the American
Cancer society and with Jack
son County Public Health asso
siation. Speaker for the banquet was
Miss Dorothy Huskey, health
educator with the Jackson Coun
ty Public Health department.
Miss Huskey stressed that to
solve health problems on a county-wide
basis, people of the
county must often be educated
to new social concepts that
merely giving them information
on these problems is not enough.
Studies show that the economic
status of an individual control
how early and often he will
visit his doctor, and added that
improved public health will im
prove the economic and educa
tional status of a community.
Listing some of this county's
health problems, Miss Huskey
said that sewage disposal in
some districts is a health hazard,
that the death rate from cancer
and tumor could probably be
lowered, that 9 out of 15 tuber
culosis cases discovered recent
ly were in late stages, and that
medical care for older people
is said to be insufficient.
Miss Huskey elaborated on
methods being used to change
health concepts, and said that
group teaching brings better re
sults than an approach to in
dividuals. She spoke of the Na
tional Training laboratory
where leadership training meth
ods are being worked out.
Miss Huskey closed her talk
by saying "we are on the thresh
old of greater progress in solv
ing health problems."
Women who have received
the award in past years present
at the banquet were Mrs. G. Q.
D'Albini, Mrs. Justin Smith,
Miss Hazel Swayne and Mrs.
Blanche Canode, and they were
introduced. A message was read
from Mrs. Henry Padgham, last
year's winner, who was in Port
land for a public health confer
ence.
Other winners of the past
have been Miss Vera Humph
rey, Mrs. A, Orin Schenck, Mrs.
Clarence A. Meeker, New York
City, now editor of the national
magazine, Methodist Woman,
and the late Mrs. John Gribble.
