Report of School Nurse
To the Superintendent of Schools:
I present herewith my seventh annual report as school nurse.
The teaching of health is an important factor in preventing illness. The nurse cooperates with teachers, doctors, dentists, and parents in endeavoring to protect the health of the children. Each school is visited once a week and more often if necessary.
111
Clinics are held during the year to discover defects of eyes and ears. Diphtheria immunization was given under the auspices of the Board of Health. All children in grades one to seven were weighed three times during the year.
In November the Massachusetts Vision Testing Equip- ment was loaned to us. A small number of children in each school were tested. We should like very much to own this equipment so that each child could be tested once a year.
We have been without a mental clinic for testing retarded children since that service was discontinued by the State.
In cooperation with the National Safety Council a record is kept of all school accidents and of all non-school accidents sufficiently serious to result in absence from school for one-half day or more or necessary for the pupils to receive medical attention. Accident reports are sent each month to the Superintendent of Schools and to the National Safety Council.

Starting in early October there was an epidemic of mumps which lasted until the end of the term. There were 214 cases reported.
The nurse assists with the milk program. Pupils may purchase a one-half pint bottle at four and one-half cents. The Federal Foods Distribution Administration reimburses us at the rate of one and one-half cents per bottle, and the Mothers' Club Tag Day makes possible the free milk for needy pupils.

DENTAL CLINIC
The School Nurse cooperated with the Board of Health Dental Clinic, held in the Tripp School each Tuesday and Thursday morning. Dr. Edward Mee is the dentist and Mrs. Anne Silva the Dental Assistant. The children in grades one to seven were examined in September. Pupils from each school go once every five weeks. Dr. Mee treats from twelve to sixteen children each morning. Charges vary from 20 to 35 cents, but the work is done without charge for those unable to pay.

A Tribute to William D. Champlin
The resignation of William D. Champlin, Town Clerk and Treasurer for approximately 25 years, was received by the Board of Selectmen December 1, 1949. Having held the office for many years he has had personal contact with nearly every citizen of the Town of Fairhaven and is held in high esteem for his personal integrity and fair mindedness.
He served as Park Commissioner for six years and in 1923 filled the vacancy in the office of the Board of Assessors. He was appointed in October, 1923 to fill the vacancy in the office of Town Clerk and Treasurer caused by the death of William H. Bly: was elected to this position February, 1924 and has served continuously until his retirement December 21, 1949. He became Treasurer of the Retirement System in 1937.
Mr. Champlin was born in Stonington, Connecticut, October 28, 1873. After graduation from High School he took a business course in Danielson, Conn., and then trans- ferred to Wesleyan Academy at Wilbraham. He was married in 1906 to Rebecca W. Hathaway and came to Fairhaven to live in 1907. They have one daughter, Sara E. Leslie. He is a member of the Unitarian Memorial Church; George H. Taber Lodge, A.F. and A.M .; a former member of the Leighton Club; also an honorary member of the Fairhaven Boy's Club.
We wish for Mr. Champlin many years of happiness in his retirement.
