Weber GENERAL CONTRACTOR AND BUILDER Ow Free Plan Service ESTIMATES CHEERFULLY FURNISHED Scholars Put On Inter sating Program In Auditorium Last Wethiesday McHenry, as well as many Other cities of northern Illinois observed Good Health week during the past week under the direction of the school nurse, Mirs. Joanne Rulien. "Good Health" was the slogan for the week, special programs were put on in the schools and altogether,Good Health week in this city was a big success. Dr. Elizabeth Buss of the State Department of Health, was here all week and spoke to all of the grade school pupils as well as giving a most interesting and instructive talk to nearly 100 mothers at the high school auditorium on Monday afternoon. On Wednesday afternoon a very interesting and well-given. health program was put on in the high school auditorium by the grade school, with the pupils giving health plays, essays and songs. These little programs are of much benefit to the children as well as being of interest to the parent® and will impress the health truths upon the minds of the children as could be done in no other way. Thursday and Friday were dental days when clinics were held and each child's teeth were examined, the dentists giving their services. Previous to this over 300 grade children had been immunized with toxin-antitoxin, thus guarding them against diphtheria. The doctors gave their services for this work, also. Both the doctors and dentists have cooperated in every way with the (school nurses and have been very generous of their time and services which has been greatly appreciated. Mrs. Rulien, the school nurse, has also been very actively interested in the welfare of the pupils during her period of work in the schools and under her efficient supervision much has been accomplished in the health program. Every month the children are weighed and measured and their progress noted and this with her many other duties make the s,position of school nurse a very busy one. The subject of good health, although a very important one, has been more or less neglected in our schools heretofore and we have been very fortunate in securing the services of Mrs. Rulien, who, being most competent and efficient, is working out a health program of the yery best, which the patrons of the school should appreciate.
