Voicing a sentiment that Salina children were unusuually healtny, with no defects of a serious nature and a few normal children, Dr. H. Y. Richards, of the Utah State Health y child clinic board, closed a in Salina last Friday evening. Fifty-six children of age, took examinations during Thursday and Friday, and the report showed that some were handicapped by enlarged tonsils more than any other defects. Some were afflicted with impaired digestive organs, some with bad teeth, but' not of a serious nature and altogether Salina is stamped as a healthy place to live, as is evidenced by Dr. Richards report. Assisting Dr. Richcards was Miss A. L. Prichard, also from the state board of health offices at Salt Lake, and members of the local organization of the child clinic. Unusual interest was shown by the mothers of Salina in the free examination clinic and those availing themselves of the opportunity were more than pleased with the advice given and instructions for the care and raising of children. So successful was the clinic of last week that a real organization is to be effected here soon. Officers will be named, various committees chosen and plans will be completed for a more extensive clinic which will be held some time during April, the date of which will be announced later. At this time Dr. Richards or some other medico will be here and aid in the examinations.
