HEALTH SUPtoVISION 01'
CHILMtEN BEFORE SCflOOL
AGE.
f Department of the Interior
Bureau of Education.)
■niat special medical atten
tion should be given to children
ill the four or five early years
before school begins is asserted
by i)r. David Forsyth, an Ehg-
li^ physician, whose views are
published in a bulletin just is
sued by the United States Bu
reau of Education; Dr. Forsyth
dsclares that medical inspection
of. elementary .school children
points to a wide .‘spread physical;
deterioration during the . first
four or five yearis of life, which
leaves the majority of children
wiflh serious but preventable de-
fwts.
“tittle or nothing has been
done as yet by way of soiution,”
says Dr. Forsyth. “Preventive
measures limited to the first
years are unlikely to have much
influence in warding off later
troubles. A gap, at present un
abridged. stretches from the firs>t
year t« the fifth, wlien the scftiool
medical inspection lb>egins.”
As suggested remedy Dr. For
syth describes a plan adopted ii»
the city of. Westminster ,Eng-
land. In Januai^'- 1912 a medi
cal inspection center was opened
for children of school age in the
Northern half of the city. Here
a staff of'health visitors is main
tained, to get into touch at once
Vv'ith every family where a child
is newly born. Through this
staif every child in the district
is kept under medical supervision
from the time of its birth until
the end of its fifSh year, the pur
pose being to hand the child over
sound and healthy, to the school
authorities.
Of S74 children examined dur
ing the first year of the center,
131 were under 3 year of agi?,
77 under 2 years, 83, 50, and -33
under 4, and 5 years, respec
tively. The medical record
cards showed a rapid rise in the
tide of riisea.se with each year of
life. It was found that while
most children in the first period
are healthy, or!y a small min
ority come through to tUe fifth
year without at least one physi
cal defect of some kind.
Ur. Forsyth concludes; “Large
numbers of children, healthy in
all respect at birth, become with
in fiye.year.st)ie phy.sically de?
; rt-or.iv:5 JsatiSnfS^ the edu-!
no sii'iaii i-03t, t:; lai ;
as possible, to their original
state cf health. Yet most of
these cases are preventable, or,
if taken in time, can be rem
edied more speedily, and ther':'-
fore more cheaply, than if left
until school age, by which time
not a few will have receivcl
permanent damage—pliysical or
mental. The problem of the de
fective child largely resolves it
self into the problem of the un
der-school age child, and seems
hardly likely to be solved by any
thing short of a general plan in
suring to all children regular
medical supervision from birth
to scSicc! age. At>H this, to be
fully successful, must run side
by side with educational meas
ures for instructing the mothers
them.selves who, from ignorance
far more than from willful neg
lect or even from indigence, are
unable to safeguard their chil
dren’s health.”
WHAT CHICAGO DID TO THE
DEMOCRATS.
(New York American Democrat)
Local issues were, of course;
largely involved in the Chicago
election \vhit4i has resulted ia
the election to the Mayorality of
Mr. Willi:iiii Hale Thompson,
Republican, l>y the tinprecedent-
ed plurality of 139,000. But
Chicago nornially a Demo-
.eratic city. Local issues have
.always been before the electo-
I rate, yet in the last fifteen year.s
only one Republican has sat in
the Mayoi-’.'i chair. It is obvious,
(lierefore. that, this tremendous
disaster to the Democratic par
ty is of more than merely local
political signifiance. ;
Throiigiiout his campaign Mir.
Thomption persistently pushed
national i.ssues to the front. For
this he \vus ridiculed and critic
ised:—aiul -justly so—by those
who rightly believe that munie-
ipal elections should be determ
inative of municipal policiesonly.
But whatever may be said of his
political ethics there can be no
que.stiqii of Mr, Thomp.son's po
litical shrewdness. He rung tiie
changes upon the Admiiiistra-
tion’s vapid and fuile policy in
Mexico. Tie denounced the Wil
lson tariff law for its. failure to
j produce revenue and its siiccess
jin depre.^sing American indus-
jtry. lie levelled shafts of irony
at pitRe diplomacy and gnipo-
juice naval administration. He
excariated the failure of the ad
ministration to seize Ll'is op
portunity for. advancing the
shipping interests of American
shipping. And he assiduously
pointed out t!ie fact that his
Democratic opponent was the
selection of Roger Sullivan, who
as the representative of the Ad
ministration in Illinois, had just
.sustained an exemplary beating
in hi.-! contest for United States
Senctiir.
All of which was very repre
hensible on the part of Mr.!
Thompson. He ought tofliave

PARKER’S TRIBUTE TO TAFT

Judge Alton B, Parker, Demo
crat, to William Howard Taft.
Republican, at the Suffolk -ouji-
ty dinner Saturday night was
graceful and sincere. It is true
that for the dignity of the bench
and for conservative thought in
general the former president has
been a persistent, dauntless
champion, and an efficient one
judging by recent election re
turns, despite one great defeat,
iThe applause with which the
! name Taft Was greeted by the
I Suffolk county inen was wai“m)y
i spontaneous. Suffolk has never
