A hard type of child to deal with and one that tries our patience is the sullen child. He makes no outlet for himself like the angry child who vents his temper in screams and passionate talk. His had temrper works all on the inside. He broods over the trouble, distorting and enlarging it by dwellâ€" ing upon it. He usually refuses com- fort or sympathy and seems to enjoy shutting himself away from every- one. He is usually a sensitive childâ€" s'hy, lacking confidence in himself, in- clined to dwell upon himself too much. What can we do with such a child? He went talk the trouble out, like the highâ€"tempered child, and it is unwise to put him by himself as you would the high-tempered child. Give him something to be busy about just as soon as possible. Work is even more necessary for him than for any other type of child, for we must get him out of himself. If possible, have him work where he will have the companionship of his brothers and sisters, or perhaps he can help you in what you are doing. Work is a blessing for most persons, but for no one more than for the child who is inclined to live his little life inside of himself. This type of child is usually reserved and takes thin-gs hard, but to the few people he loves he gives a wealth of affection and loyalty and usually he has a deep, strong nature which is sincere and true.

The little cousin entered.

Do you know that there are thou- sands of young children growing up with physical defects of various kinds not being correctedâ€"in fact without any medicine or nursing supervision whatever? These remarks are pointedly direct- ed to youâ€"you, the person who reads these lines at the present moment. I want to talk to you, and you only, and I Want you to feel that What I am writing will apply to you as an indi- vidual. Let us get to the point then: What are you doing to help Public Health work? - Perhaps I should ask you first of all if you believe in Public Health ‘work, and if not why not. Do you not ‘think Public Health activity is useful, and if not Why is it not useful? Willl you ask yOurself that question before we go any further? The reason I want you to ask yourself that ques- tion and get it settled once for all, is because I believe every man, woman and child in the province should be a Public Health worker, and I further-I believe, indeed I am confident that‘ every man, woman and child in the} province would be a Public HealthI worker if he or she only knew what‘ is being done along health lines and what still remains to be done. One‘ thing is Certainâ€"you cannot throw out your chest and feel confident if there is disease in your house or neighborhood, especially communicable. disease. If there are such diseases} about, you may be the next victimâ€"i you are probably just as liable to} “catch” something as your neighbom It is therefore in your interest to see‘ that your neighbor and family. as'well: as yourself and family. are not ex-3 posed to any form of outbreak if possible, and that everybody is in good: health to resist or throw off such an‘ outbreak once it does occur. Listen to this: Do you know that 60,000 babies died in Ontario last year before reach- ing one year of age, and that a large number of these deaths could have been prevented if these infants and their mothers had been given proper c'ate and attention? Do you know that thousands of lives are lost yearly in this province because communicable diseases are not reported to the Medi- cal Officers of Health in time to have quarantine and preventive measures taken to stamp out the outbreaks.
