Many parents wonder why Illinois schools are so insistent about health exams for children who are either just starting school, or entering fifth or ninth grade. For one thing, health exams for children entering these grades are required in the Illinois school code. More important, however, is that educators and health professionals know there is a direct relationship between a child's health and the progress of his school work. It's simply that a healthy child does better in school than does a child who has a health problem. The school health examination is a good way to detect and-or prevent health problems Which might in­ terfere with a child's ability to do well in school. According to state guidelines, the school physical should include the following: blood p r e s s u r e ; b o d i l y measurements, anemia check; TB skin test at the physician's discretion; vision and hearing screenings; examination of the skin, inspection of the ears, nose and throat; dental check, examination of the respiratory system; gastrointestinal check up cardiovascular (heart) examination, physical in­ spection of the muscular and skeletal systems; develop­ mental screening; and, of course, the complete series of immunizations If your child is just starting school, or entering fifth or ninth grade, your school district will send a school health examination form home. It is then up to you to take your child to your family doctor, neigh borhood clinic or local health department for the physical And remember, it is important that you accompany your child so you can answer any questions The vision and hearing screenings are important parts of the examination, as so much is learned through these two senses In most areas, vision and hearing screenings are conducted in the schools by persons trained and certified by the Illinois Department of Public Health < But your child's vision and response to sound should be checked periodically from birth Don't wait until your child is five or six years old. as some vision and hearing problems are much easier to treat while the child is very small Good eyesight and hearing are im portant to the development of skills your child should have by the time he or she begins school ) r/ The Ball Corporation is lamous lor making glass jars that preserve just about anything From apples^ to strawberries Their glassmaking however burns a lot ot scarce luels So when Ball decided to switch part ot their production to electricity they were helping all ol us That's because electricity is plentftul here in northern Illinois Ninety percent ol it comes trom coal and uranium--two tuels in good supply So whenever you or a company like Ball use electricity instead of a scarce fuel you're actually conserving that tuel lor transportation and other vital energy needs And that knowledge is as sweet as strawberry preserves -- We maj|.e electricity-the conservation energy 11 CriMwiioifwinliif Edison So, remember -- the school- health examination is im­ portant to your child's health and to your child's progress in school Actually, the school exams are just part of the series of health exams your child should have, beginning in infancy. If you want more information about school health examinations, contact the school principal, your local health department, or write to: Illinois Department of Public Health, Division of Education and Information, 525 West Jefferson street, Springfield, Illinois 62761. s£8S? by Gerry Johnson Woman Finds Life More Fulfilling Through Concern For Others Young Country According to recent population studies, half of the population of Mexico is reported to be below the age of 17 So says the U.Z'ZZi: Edgmgton u^i o&vQuKhiO*. >E VA COMPLETE hospital TME Put PAHfoE C* VvED'CAL £.,<»<BLE an£> OvT?A t E C o n t a c t n e a r e s t V A o f f i c e ( c h e c k y o u r p h o n e b o o k ) o r e l o c a l v e t e r a n s g r o u p . "Having a fulfilled life is not measured by the type of people you know, your trips abroad, or the number of prestigious clubs you be­ long to, but by the genuine concern for someone other than yourself and not put­ ting yourself first all the time," says . 82-year-old Mrs. Hattie Roberson of Midland, Texas. On her own since she was 11 years old, Mrs. Roberson had to learn pret­ ty fast how to fend for her­ self and how important it was to be considerate of others. < "It was a struggle," Mrs. Roberson toUl a writer from the National Council on the Aging, "but^I never com­ plained or burdened others with my problems. Instead, I tried to help them with theirs." Until a month ago Mrs. Roberson held down full- time jobs in private homes, kept her own home and garden, was an active mem­ ber of the American Legion Auxiliary, the Heroines of Jericho and the Democratic Women's Club. She and her husband of 50 years also have given a lot of their time to helping under-privileged juveniles. "We were not blessed with any children of our own," said Mrs. Roberson, "but we've always had a house full. Over Phe years, we've taken in and raised several children who had no family. We loved them as our own and they loved us." When Mrs. Roberson wasn't either caring for her house and family or work­ ing she would be taking part in the activities of the Democratic Women's Club. "We would go out into the community and talk to people about the impor­ tance of voting. We would help them to get registered and get them to the polls to vote," Mrs Roberson said. Sometimes Mrs. Rober­ son held meetings at her home and talked to inter­ ested people about the lm- DNESDAY, SEPTkVIHtKK, 1978 portance of voting. "1 feel that I have a gift for talking to others," Mrs. Roberson said. "A person should use whatever talent God gave, regardless of how small it seems." Since retirement, Mrs. Roberson continues her club activities, but not hav­ ing enough to do, she is thinking about returning ta work. "I think many people quit working years before they real'y should. They dwell too much on age and they think that retiring is what they're supposed to do," said Mrs. Roberson. "I'm not ready to retire yet. I 'll be going for a long time." FITNESS AT any age is -* important, whether you're* 18 or 80. The Westside; Jewish Community Center; in Los Angeles promotes^ exercising for physical tit- ' ness no matter what a per­ son's age. . For those suffering from arthritis, the Center has be­ gun a pilot program that starts with warm-up exer­ cises in the gymnasium, fol­ lowed by further exercise iu the pool. Those who would rather stay dry can enroll in the conditioning program where young and old alike bend, twist and kick. It 's the cen­ ter's contribution to bridg­ ing the generation gap. sal«- t u b at.
