The Schick clinic, started two years ago, has come to be a part of the annual school health program. In this way children who are entering Reading schools, either in the first grade or from other places where a Schick program is not available, will be given the opportunity of a diphtheria prevention program. The clinic started March 26 with an attendance of 186 children and continued until April 28. While the number of years in which this program has been in operation has been few, the records of the Board of Health show a decrease in the number of cases of diphtheria within the last three years. Whether or not this decrease can be attributed to the Schick program is hard to tell; it is interesting, however, to note that the cases of diphtheria which we have had with this same period have been children who have not


r


161


been Schicked and immunized. There is now a similar means of deter- mining a child's susceptibility to scarlet fever and a similar means of prevention. When it seems advisable to add this means of communicable disease control to the health program I am confident that the parents of Reading will receive it with the same support and confidence which they have given the diphtheria prevention program.


With the co-operation of the Visiting Nurse several children who are tuberculosis contacts have been examined at North Reading Sanito- rium. Three Reading children are now in Westfield Sanitorium and, as this report goes to press, another is awaiting admission to the sanitorium. Through the service available at North Reading Sanitorium and through the examination clinics conducted annually by the State Department of Health a definite move is made in the direction of tuberculosis preven- tion by means of detection of incipient and suspicious cases.


We are indebted to the Forsythe Dental Infirmary for its co-opera- tion in our nose and throat work. Through Dr. Cross of the Dental In- firmary arrangements have been made whereby cases may be referred by the Reading Dental Clinic for nose and throat examinations and subse- quent tonsil appointments if necessary. The operation is done at the In- firmary for a nominal charge of five dollars. This makes an ideal ar- rangement where the financial standing of the family will not permit the services of a private nose and throat specialist.


.


Last summer the Middlesex County Health Association, of which: Reading is a contributing member, through its Tuberculosis Committee,. operated a health camp at Lake Massapoag, Sharon Heights. The camp was for underweight children and was maintained for a period of eight weeks. Reading was allowed the privilege of sending nine children at the rate of seven dollars per week. The raising of money for this project was undertaken by Mrs. C. C. White, Chairman of the Tuberculosis Com -- mittee, and her committee. Much credit is due Mrs. White, for it was mainly through her efforts that enough was raised to send seven children to the camp for the entire eight weeks. Two other children were sent and paid for by their parents, making a total of nine children who en- joyed the experience of eight weeks in a summer health camp.


The continued interest and support of the various local committees especially the Tuberculosis and Red Cross Committees has been a source of inspiration and joy in the work. The confidence and spirit of help- fulness on the part of the various members of the school committee have been gratifying and much appreciated. Loyalty and interest of this kind are stimulating and invigorating.


In closing, I wish to thank you for your sympathetic interest and splendid support of my work.


Respectfully submitted,


MABEL M. BROWN, R. N., School Nurse.
