PENNSYLVANIA
PUBLIC HEALTH SCHOOL
WHAT? HOW? WHEN?
One time in Chicago a cow kicked
over a lantern. A bucket of water
would have extinguished the blaze. It
was not applied. The resultant fire
destroyed 17,450 buildings ($195,000,
000), and 275 people.
If the man who brought smallpox to
a certain city in Pennsylvania had
‘been vaccinated, ten deaths, thirty
‘cases of hideous scarring and a num-
iber of cases of permanent physical de-
‘fects would have been preven:ed.
The State Health School will tell
' some true stories of what has happen-
ed, and some ways by which it may be
prevented from happening aga.l.
The lessons will be publ shed in the
Pennsylvania newspapers uuling the
second and fourth week of eich wonth.
‘Bach will be followed by thiec ques
‘tions, which any one who has read the
lesson can answer. The answers will
not be marked, but will be gruwcd as
a whole as “good” or “pour.” ly .1
itelligent person can do ihe geading.
In this school should be nuibered
every Pennsylvanian who can read.
The maximum cost is twenty-four
‘cents—that dis twenty-four postal
«cards, one to each lesson. To join,
‘write on the postal card with the an-
swers to the first set of g.es ous (hs
pledge, or words to that elfect:
“] promise to read the lessons of
the Public Health School of Pennsyl-
‘'vania, and send my answers lo th
questions within three days from time
of reading.” The address lo wh.ch tle
answers are sent will be given in the
newspapers.
To handle the answers and to in-
sure proper credit, each county has
‘heen organized under a Central Heal lk
‘School Committee consisting of : Coun-
ity Medical Director, County Executive
‘Secretary, County Superintendent of
1Schools, County District Atiorney,
Chairman Board of County Commis-
:sioners, to which have been added as
local conditions warran.ed, County
Representatives of the Red Cross, of
the Society for the Prevention of Tu-
berculosis or of other organized
bodies.
This committee has appo n.ed a tem-
porary chairman for each county cen-
ter, which chairman has sciected a
local committee and organ..ed per-
manently.
The Local Health School Coummiit-
tees ask all churches, lodges and so-
cieties and organizations in their re-
spective districts, including - labor, to
urge their individual members to join
the school and to send their answers
on postal cards to the aadress give.
in the paper.
The Secretary of the Local Sub-Com-
mittee forwards to the County Execu-
tive Secretary, the number of satisfac
tory answers from that district. The
County Executive Secretary tabulales
these results for the county and for-
wards the report to the State Health
Department,
These results may be regarded as an
index of the county’s health intelli-
gence and educational standard.
In some parts of the state, prizes
are being offered by business men,
for local disricts which have the best
percentage and for individuals who
send in the best answers.
Cities are organized af‘er the same
plan as counties. Local units being
school districts, with tne understand
ing that the plan of organization ma
be changed to meet local requirements.
Public, private, parochial schools,
colleges, normal schools, Rotary and
Kiwanis Clubs, Chambers of Com-
merce or any other organized society
or association may lighten the labors
of the local secretary of the sub-com-
mittee by sending ‘their answers to
the Secretary of their own organiza-
tion, who will send the number of
satisfactory answers to the local sec-
retary or he County Executive Secre-
tary of the proper county.
The answers to each lesson will be
published with the succeeding lesson.
The County and City Superintend-
ents of Schools are asked to have or-
ganized in each school in ‘heir respec-
tive districts, a committee of alert and
energetic pupils who will take from
the teaching force the whole burden of
organizing the schools, examining an-
swers, and re‘urning results to the
local secretary of the sub-committee.
The school children are urged to in-
duce their parents to join the Health
School.
Since these lessons will be available
to all, some may think that sending
answers to the questions is profitless
and troublesome, and believe that they
can derive as much benefit without do-
ing this—perhaps they can; but they
will not. For the credit of their coun-
ty and community, they are urged to
become members of the school. Even
though times be hard, two postals a
month are not an extravagance when
the end desired and often attained is
the saving of life, perhaps your own
or that of the one nearest you.
Also, a large enrollment strengthens
the hands of those laboring for a bet-
ter state health,

Trying Times.
The reconstruction period after the great
war is characterized by what may be call-
ed high pressure days. The demands of
business, the wants of the family, the re-
quirements of society, are more numerous
now than ever before.
The first effect of the praiseworthy effort
to keep up with all these things is com-
monly seen in a weakened or debilitated
condition of the nervous system, which re-
sults in dyspepsia, defective nutrition of
both body and brain, and, in extreme cas-
es, in complete nervous prostration.
It is clearly seen that what is needed is
what will sustain the system, give vigor
and tone to the nerves, and keep the diges-
tive and assimilative functions healthy and
active. Many persons from their own ex-
perience recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla
for this purpose. It acts on the vital or-
gans, builds up the system, and fits men
and women for these trying times.
In cases where there is biliousness or
constipation, it is well to take Hood's Pills.
They are a thorough cathartic, a gentle
laxative. 65-15
