They expect to return MAPLE 6 (Too late for last week; In spite of the stormy weather there was a good attendance at the January meeting of the Oak Ridges Home and School Associa- tion. It was gratifying to see so many fathers present. This was health night and the health com- mittee reported a busy season to date. Mattresses have been cellected 1nd covars made for them for use as tumbling mats in the school, Since Xmas boys of grades 6â€"7-8 have been coached and at Tuesday night’s meeting two groups of 15 boys each, gave a demonstration of rolls, head stands, hand stands, and pyramids, which did great credit to their teacher and their on hard work and long hours 'of practise. The health room in the school has been renovated by this committee. Members cleaned the roam, put up shelves for suppliesl and added some new linen for the bed. Outlines of the work of a public health unit were sent to every member before the meeting and the guest speaker was Dr. Robert King, NeWmarket” director of the York County Public Health Unit. Dr. King pointed out that Public Health work is not a form of chm. ity for g few people in the com- munity. It is the modern intell- igent method of preventing illness in the whole community and the control of it when it does occur. This is done by an innoculation program for all children, by enforc- ing of quarantine and isolation of infectious diseases, and by 'ris- its of the public health nurse to the school. Also the unit pro- vides inspection of sanitary con- ditions throughout the community. The provincial government pay! one half the cost of the health un- it to the township councils. The people pay their half through their taxes and the cost is one mill on the equalized assessment. roughly one dollar for every thou- sand dollars of assessment. It was the unanimous decision of the large number present to send a delegation to Whitchurch and King- Councils asking- for the services of the York County Health Unit in this district. A vote of thanks was tendered Dr. King by Dr, D. Gama. Mrs. Harold Woolnoug'h is the new recording secretary, taking th. place of Mrs. GOAT. Gamble who has gone to England.
