Report of Dental Clinic


The Attleboro School Dental Clinic has completed another successful year under the very competent gui lance of Miss "rances Macartney. She has in- stituted an educational program in the schools that is having a marked effect upon the dental health of the school children. It is this constant effort in the class rooms that really counts in any dental health program. The sale of tooth brushes has greatly increased, showing a desire for mouth cleanliness.


The dental clinic is running smoothly. We have all we can do in caring for the children who apply for treatment in the first four grades. Emphasis is put on prevention, filling small cavities in the six-year molars. The deciduous or baby teeth are also filled to maintain space for the permanent teeth and to keep the mouth healthy.

ANNUAL REPORT


The year has been marked by pleasant and cooperative relations with the school superintendent and teachers. All seem to appreciate the necessity of den- tal care among the children and have been very helpful and cooperative.

Report of Inspector of Animals and Inspec'or of Slaughtering


There have been many cases of dog bite in the past year, and I have taken some dogs' heads to the Wasserman Laboratories for examination. but there have been no cases of Rabies.


Through the cooperation of the U. S. Bureau of Animal Industry and the State Division of Livestock Disease Control, a new program of calfhood vaccina- tion for Bang's Disease has been offered, without charge to livestock owners, at the time of the regular tuberculin test. This should improve the dairy herds here.
