RED CROSS NOTES

The better health program for Jasper county la meeting with perfect co-operation by everyone. The physicians, heads of schools, township trustees and others have pledged their support to give the children fair play against physical odds which may be the determining factor whether they succeed or fail in life’s race. Records are to be used which will show the general physical condition every year during the child’s school period. Physicians and nurses will check the physical records and the teachers will note the mental progress. A few years hence will find Jasper county exhibiting the special talents and the phylsical prowess of its children rather than give fat stock shows as the prime achievement. One certificate of learning found tn a home is worth more to America than a whole drawerful of pedigrees for prise critters. Medical inspection by a physician will be given the consolidated school at Tefft this week and the inspection of the school children of Rensselaer will begin Monday, Oct. 27 by the local physicians. NETTIE B. JORDAN, American Red Cross Nurse for Jasper County.
