Report of the School Physicians.


Milford, Mass., January 15, 1937 To the School Committee of Milford :


The annual inspection of the school children this year shows a slight improvement in their physical con- dition over last year. To draw a distinct line between normal and abnormal physical conditions is an impos- sibility. There is always an important factor of per- sonal equation entering into the problem. For that reason we hesitate to publish figures regarding the number of normal pupils. Those whose condition we regard as satisfactory, we prefer to tabulate under the heading of "those having no notable defects".


Considering the pupils in this light, we find 51% in satisfactory physical condition, or "having no no- table defects". This is an improvement over last year's figures of about 5%, which is encouraging, and indicates that more interest is being taken in the chil- dren's health, both by their parents and by the public at large.


Under the statutes, school physicians are limited in their activities to detecting physical defects in the pu- pils, and notifying the parents regarding those defects. The burden of correcting the defects still remains with the parents, and we are pleased to say that the par- ents are cooperating with the school authorities with results reflected in the increased percentage of well children.


The following tables are presented to show the num- ber and character of physical defects which were found in pupils of the various grades.

The principal health undertakings of the past year were :-


1. The County Clinic held in March, 1936, for the first time, for the discovery and prevention' of Child- hood Tuberculosis. The Clinic includes only those pu- pils in the seventh, ninth and eleventh grades. Statis- tics show that these are the most susceptible age groups. Dr. Hugh S. Edwards and his staff from the West Boylston Sanatorium, skin tested, X-Rayed and examined those in the above grades. These pupils will be examined every year, if necessary, for the remaind- er of their school life.


2. The Lions Club provided funds for an Eye Clinic for the correction of vision defects.


3. The Dr. Curley Memorial Fund made possible tonsil operations for urgent cases.


4. More children than ever before will be able to take advantage of Sterling Health Camp, through the splendid co-operation of the teachers and pupils. This year over seventy dollars was realized from the Christ- mas Seal sale in the schools.


5. Twenty-eight girls received Red Cross certificates in Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick.

CLASS ODE by Eleanor Arlene Senter, '36


O Milford High School, lov'd by us, We bid farewell to thee.


Four happy years we've spent with you, And now 'tis time to leave. Our teachers all have had their part In making mem'ries bright, And as we leave this hall tonight, We'll conquer with our might.


!


We face the future, Mother dear, With courage and with joy,


For you've bequeath'd to us the power That we'll ne'er destroy.


The class of nineteen thirty-six Bids you a fond adieu,


And though we may be miles apart, We'll try and trust for you.


Tune : Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes (Old English Air)
