Bell once again pleased many Bowmanville mothers at a Child Welfare Clinic on Thursday afterno on, January 12, held in the Council lloom and Nurses' Office ad- joining. From 2until 6 p. m., the doctor was kept busy examing babes and small children, advising parents as to the need of correction and treat- ment; explaining the cause of certain conditions and giving information as to corrective diets. Thursday evering, Dr. Bell met the Child Welfare Committee and some of the citizens and thoroughly expounded to them the need of and benefits to be derived by the town appointing a community nurse. He made very clear, indeed, that the responsibility of the many tragediles that might happen, which could be avoided by the presence of a com- munity nurse, would rest on the shoulders of those in authority in the town. It is their duty to protect the community. When the question of the cost of the nurse was raised one gentleman remarked, "The question is, Can we afford to be without a nurse?"

Home Nursing Classes, senior, met for 8 lectures and demonstrations and junior group 5 times. A Mothers Club has been organ- ized,, the object being to give to those women, who by reason of household cares are kept a great deal at home, a social evening onceaweek. By the use of the Club it is hoped that lone- Iy women will make friends. As Maternai Welfare means child wel- fare, everything can be done to make the mothers healthy, helps in the health of the chldren and whole fam- ily. And as happiness is necessary for good health, sucb work as the or- ganizing of this club comes wîthin the province of the Public Health Worker.

The following results were fonnd: In regard to cases of Malnutrition. Seven cards showcd that parents had been advised to make changes in the diet of the child, these lu the main being to bave the child take cocoa instead of tea, eat cereul and milk for breakfast, drink ut leust a pint of milk daily, etc. In 5 cases the mother said that the1 changes were being carried ont as fully as possible, and ou weighiug these children it was fouud that they had gained respectivelly 4, 3%i, 3, 21'/' and 2 pounds. *(Dr. Bell made the comment when this was rend that these were very good gains, indeed, for aperiod of two months). Iu one case wbere the cbild is also la need of an operation for tonsils, which was being delayed for finan- cial reasons the gain was only 1 %/ pounds, though the mother said the child had co-operated well in eating even things she did not like, for the sake of gaining what the nurse had said sheneeded to gain. In the seventh case the changes bad not been carried ont, and here was found a gain in weight so small as to be almost negligible. B In regard to Dental Effeets: 3 cards showed that children had been recommendedý to see the den- tist,, and ail three mothers reported that this had been doue within a fewr days of receiviug the report-lu one case on the very day of the examina- tion the first risit to the dentist was made. C Iu regard, to defects of Vision: 3 cards showed recommendations in regard to this. As a resnlt one whose glasses needed repuiring and changing had had them fitted np and was wéariug them regulaxly. A second had been taken to the Optom- etrist, but it had been f onnd that glasses were not needed. The third case had been fltted with glusses with the result of practicully revolutioniz- ing the child's whole school life., D Iu regard to Tousils and Aden- oids: 12 showed reécommendations in re- gard. to this, 8 being reported as quite serions. 0f these* 3 had, al-, ready had had necessry: operation performed; 2 others were waiting ujîder thîe dotor's orders and care until some other defects under which the children suffered were corrected. In 3 cases it was'reported that only financial reasons kept them from hav- ing the operation immediately, and they intended as soon as possible to have it performed. In 4 cases no- thing had been done, and the parentsý did not seem convinced of the need for immediate action. E Other Defects, 2 cards showed speciai treatment needed for other things. In one case this was being arranged for. in the other financial reasons alone prevent- e.d anything being done. Ail the parents interviewed ex- pressed themseives as heartfly in f av- or of the town employing a Commun-I ity Nurse. As one father expressed it, "It gives to every cbild an equal chance for a healthy body; without it the cbildren of the workingman arel handicapped".

For a number of years The Dur- ham Club bas been guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Ciemes, 123 South Drive, Toronto, on the lOth of January, that date being the anniversary of their marriage. It was, therefore, a joyous occas- ion to be the guests of the happy couple- on this their 22nd wedding annîversary. The home was in gala attire for the happy fete, and the un- usuaily large attendance gave evi- dence of the Club's interest in their host and liostess. Amidst ail the merriment, how- ever, the very recent sudden death of the Rev. Dr. M. P.
