color.”

are rare and family trend as to body
ruili Uncernottr... hmem has been
fund to be ever, more prevalent
am: ns hh.dren of the weil-to-do than
among children of poorer families.
The causes of undernourishment
are: first, physical defects and dis
eased processes: obstructions in
breath::.?, such as adenoids and dis
eased tonsils: second, lack of home
control; third, chronic over-fatigue,
foil-day school program. long study
hours, activities out of school, such as
dancing atta music; fourth, improper
health habits: fifth improper diet and
food habits. To this may be added
that malnutrition in children may be
caused by insufficient food not
enough calories per day. unbalanced
diet —enough to eat, but not cf the
right proportions, fast eating and
candy-eating habit.
To remedy these deficiencies, it is
necessary to make an individual study
of each child, and success depends
upon the co-operation of the parent,
teacher, physician and the child.
In the examination of large num
bers of schoo! children, decayed teeth
form the biggest percentage of physi
cal defects found We have just re
cently come to the conclusion that
the deeay of teeth has direct relation
ship to the diet of the child.
Calcium, if left out of the mothers’
; diet, as well as the child's, wili re
: suit in soft teeth, which are easily
1 decayed. The net requirement of cal
cium. the bene - forming food, from
birth to the atauemen: of full stature.
: averages fully six pounds. It will take
j one fuii quart of milk a day for the
nursing mother and the growing child
I to supply this need and build strong
teeth. ®
Diseased teeth are often the result
cf eating food that does not demand
chewing and consequently does not
rxercise the teeth- adherence of pasty
foods to the surface of the teeth,
with resulting fermentation and de-
with acid formation which
itches the enamel —unhygienic condi
tions of the mouth.
The development of teeth capable
of r-sisting destructive agencies ’A
a dietary problem. The small jaws
and crowding teeth so often found in
hildren of today is almost always a
result of faulty skeletal development,
and will be influenced by the dietary
errors which favors the development
of rickets.
The authorities all over the country
are arriving at the conclusion that
ther is a direct relationship between
the undernourished child and tubercu
losis. The priucipal treatment for tu
berculosis in adults as well as chil
dren is based on diet together with
rest. There are 25-.25S undernour
ished children in school in Georgia.
Every one of them will be in danger
of contracting tubercuolsis. if they
come in contact with it. due to lowered
resistance. Scientists have recently
made studies, which show that the
undernourished child is very suscep
tible to tuberculosis.
If you suspect your child to be un
derweight. write your State Board of
Health, and they will send you a card
giving the weight a child should be
at a certain age and height. If you
find your child not up to the stand
ard according to this card, consult
your family physician before attempt
ing to apply any remedies.
In a short article like this, it is im
possible to give details, but a system
of diet which can be confidently rec
ommended with the assurance it wili
go a long ways toward improving the
physical condition of everyone, and
can be followed without any grea,:
self-denial is as follows: First, instead
of the average consumption of a half
pint of milk a day. there should be
at least a quart consumed by every
person. Second, include in the diet
some of the vegetables—these,
together with miik. are called the pro
tective foods. Third, include in the
daily ration a certain amount of raw
vegetable food. Those, together with
the other foods wo receive, will form
a balanced ration. -
Know your child and its food re
quirements. See that it gets the
proper food in the right amounts, and
we will have fewer physical defects,
fewer failures in school: fewer men
tal breakdowns, and fewer cases of
tuberculosis.
AH school teachers and pupils
should be successfully vaccinated
against smallpox. Each Board of Edu
cation has the power to require sue
cessful vaccination against this dis
'ase before entrance to school.
Never in the history of the State
have such demands been made upon
the State Board of Health Laboratory.
An immense amount of work has been
done, and wo are pleased to know that
it has been satisfactory to our physi
eiaus.
