1e <br />30 <br />Report of School and 'Town Nurse <br />To the Honorable Board of Selectmen <br />and the Citizens of the Town of Mashpee <br />During this year of 1961 particular attention has been <br />given to the children of the town in an effort to guard their <br />present and future health and to educate their parents in <br />forming better health habits. <br />All school children were examined by Mrs. Alice Dalgell,, <br />County Dental Hygienist, and those most in need of dental <br />work were transported weekly to the Cotuit office of Dr. Craw- <br />ford. <br />Mrs. Lucy E. Haeselick, public health nurse for Mashpee r <br />during the first nine months of 1961 used both the Hass. <br />Vision and the Mass. Pure Tone Hearing Test for all pupils ° ;a <br />and all those children showing defects were followed up. <br />Clinics were held and conducted by Dr. Fred L. Moose, .. <br />County Health Officer. <br />In October of this year Mrs. Carol S. McLane assumed <br />the duties of Mrs. Haeselich who has retired. <br />We have felt particularly happy with the response of <br />many mothers who have expressed their willingness to assist <br />when ever possible in programs pertaining to the health avd <br />welfare of our young people. <br />Also the beautiful new cafeteria serving nutritious and <br />appetizing hot lunches daily and the spacious classrooms of <br />the school addition should be a source of pride and an inspira- <br />tion for the cleanliness necessary to better health. <br />
