It you desire a personal reply, enclose a stamped envolepo.r ad dressed back to you.l Once in a while congress turns aside from its ordinary perform* nets .and devotes a lew minutes to the discussion of matters- having to do with, '.the health of the people. When in one of these happy moods it passed the following resolution: Kcspivccl by the .mate ana notice ol rep resentatives qf the United States of America in congress assembled, That tlic president of the United States is hereby authorized and requested to issue annually a proclamation setting apart May 1 of each year as Child Health Day and in\iting all a^cnc.ies and organizations interested in child welfare to unite upon that, day in the observance of such exercises as will awaken the IH’ople of the rnation to the fundamental neces sity of a year-round program for the protection and development of the health of the nation's children.” By authority of this act of congress, the president proclaimed Child Health' Day this year. May Day, v. Inch has always been given to the ' children, will this year and each year following, he observed as - National Play Day. Recreation and playground associations and all lovers of children have applied their every effort to make Child Health Day this year the best celebration of the sort we have ever had. President Hoover has always been interested m the children. He Is really the founder ol the practice of devoting a day each UK, cui uuiMU, year to the welfare ot ino young sters. If 1 remember correctly, lie u tlu> author ot what we call "Thr Child's Bill of Rights." Just tis Mr Jefferson is the author ol' the Pol itical Bill uf Rights, the proposed a national standard for the protec tion of child life. Wo Shall he hap py when there shall be no Child in America. "That has not been b an under proper conditions. That does not live in hygiene: surroundings That ever suffers from under nourishment.' That dors not have, prompt and efficient’ medical attention and inspection. | That does not receive primary In struction i.n the elements ol hygiene and good health. That tins not the complete birth right ol a sound mind in a sound body. I That has not the encouragement to exprr. ■ in liillest measure the spirit within which Is the filial endowment ol every human being " 1 have never failed to be thankful that. I was born in the country. There wo find open spaces and room for thr many activities so dear to the child's heart. In the City there is a real problem when it comes to recreation nnd play. Apartment houses and great hotels take all tire space that might be given over to ball fields and playgrounds. But there are children problems every where and they must be solved In every sense the child is the cornerstone of the nation. Unless we can guarantee to our children that the Bill oi Rights shall be something more than a proclama tion, we have not gone far in solv ing the problem of the future. To my mind, good health is fun damental to spirituality, to educa tion, to prosperity, to good citizen ship, and to the welfare of the na tion. Whatever we can do on Child Health Day to awaken an interest in the physical welfare of the chil dren. will mean that we have done our part to lay broad and deep the foundations of America.
