SCHOOL NURSE'S ANNUAL REPORT FOR 1935.
- -
TO MR. MELDEN SMITH,
SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS :-
I hereby submit the Annual Report of School Nursing done in the Mendon Schools for the year ending December 31, 1935.
All schools visited at least one day a week when school was in session, usually on Tuesday: Centre schools in the morning and the afternoon to East Mendon and doing home visiting.
It is difficult to work out a definite schedule, but we try to visit every classroom and talk with the teachers and if time permits, give a health talk, inspect pupils or talk in- dividually with pupils whom the teachers or parents have drawn our attention to.
School nursing is not like a music supervisor's or draw- ing teacher's work where definite results can be seen almost at once. Our work is really prevention of defects and cor- rection of existing ones to protect others. Practically all the school nursing time in January and February was spent in, what we call, working up the Diphtheria Prevention Clinic, the first we have had in Mendon.
These treatments were offered free by our local and State Boards of Health to the pre-school as well as the school children. To make a clinic of this type a success, numerous home visits have got to be made to explain to the parents
107
what it means. About 89 of our school children and 15 pre- school received the three protective treatments. 29 children started the treatments, but on account of colds, chicken-pox and scarlet fever, could not finish. Counting the children who previously had the treatment from their own physician, over half the school children are now protected from this dreaded disease.
The illnesses and diseases in the schools reported and investigated were scarlet fever, chicken-pox, whooping-cough, measles, German measles, pneumonia, grippe colds and a few skin conditions.
The pupils were weighed and measured at intervals and weight tags sent home to parents. Special attention was given to underweights. Two boys were sent to summer camps: one for a month paid for by the Christmas Seals and the other for three weeks paid for by District Nursing Association. Both boys benefited by their stay at camp.
Home Nursing Classes for the seventh grade girls were taught after school hours once a week up to June, when they were discontinued as the room used, is to be converted into a classroom.
With the existing crowded conditions in the Center build- ing, there is no room for emergencies and extra activities, such as there should be in every school building. The school nurses hope to see such provision in the near future.
As in the past, during the summer, home visits were made urging the correction of defects found by Dr. Campbell in his 1934 annual examination of the children. About six- teen were corrected throughout the year and a number are under medical supervision.
At this same time of the year, visits were made to the homes of children to enter school for the first time in September urging early vaccination and to have these children examined by their family doctors, looking for existing defects to be corrected before starting school.
108
In November and December, time was spent in assist- ing Dr. Campbell with the school examination of the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th grades. Notices of defects found were sent to parents and guardians. As the school examinations are still in progress a complete list of defects cannot, at this time, be given, but the following is a list of those found in the classes examined.
Enlarged tonsil and adenoids 26
Diseased tonsils

Enlarged glands 1

Respectfully submitted,
MILDRED L. SALMOND, School Nurse.

NOTICE.
Parents and others are requested to carefully examine the above lists and if any errors or omissions are discovered, report them at once to the Town Clerk, that the record may be corrected, as it is of importance that the records of Vital Statistics should be complete.
Parents within forty days after the birth of a child, and every householder, within forty days after the birth in his house shall cause complete notice thereof to be given to the clerk of the town in which such child is born. Parents should give this their prompt attention as it is very important and necessary for complete record.
Your attention is called to the provisions of Section 36 and 55 of Chapter 207 of the General Laws relating to mar- riages solemnized out of this state, which are as follows:
"Section 29 of Chapter 151 of the Revised Laws: If a marriage is solemnized in another state between parties liv- ing in this Commonwealth who return to dwell here they shall, within seven days after their return, file with the clerk or registrar of the city or town in which either of them lived at the time of their marriage, a certificate or declaration of their marriage, including the facts relative to marriages, which are required by law, and for neglect thereof shall forfeit ten dollars."
Blanks for the return of all Vital records can be obtained from the Town Clerk.
Attention is called to the fact that all dogs three months old or more must be licensed at the Town Clerk's office on or before April 1, 1937.
I take this opportunity in wishing the Townspeople much prosperity during the year 1937.
Respectfully submitted,
ALBERT S. COLEMAN,
Town Clerk.
