KIWANIS TO HEAR
JFYE DELEGATE
Iva J une Sproul, Alaska’s
second International Farm Youth
Exchange delegate, will be in'
3almer January 12 to describe
her experiences this summer and
fall in France.
Some of Miss Sproul’s colored
slides taken during her stay
abroad will be shown at the
regular Kiwanis meeting which
will be held at 12:05 p.m in the
Co-Op Club Room, Richard Blue,
agricultural agent, said.
The Extension Service has a
speaking tour scheduled for ma
jor towns along her route from
the States to Fairbanks where
she is an instructor in the home
economics department of the
University of Aaska.
The Pennsylvania farm girl
spent four months abroad, divid
ing time between two French
families who included her in the
activities of their small farming
villages. She lived in the homes
as a member of the family, help
ing with meals and occasionally
working in the gardens. The lat
ter was a rarity as the father,
sons and hired men did all the
farm work, and a little maid the
laundry, cleaning and barn
chores.
Miss Sproul escaped the chore
of Alaska’s first delegate, Herb
Lang, who spent his first few
days in Sweden “hanging” hay.
Applications are being received
now for the 1953 exchange. To
be eligible, an applicant must be
589 Boys Make Medical History
Wearing an expression that we ait know well, a Boys
Town youngster awaits his tarn in the dental chair.
BOYS TOWN, NEB.—Boys like
to brush their teeth ... if they get
i new toothbrushes when they need
them. Interest in toothbrushing
lags when the toothbrush is worn
out. That's the latest finding at
Father Flanagan's Boys Home at
Boys Town, Nebraska.
Hope for the prevention of acute
gingivitis came from the famed
Boys Home where the story of
how 689 youngsters from Boys
Town volunteered to aid their fel
low children suffering from the ill
effects of gingivitis was drama*
tically revealed when the results
of the first scientific group study
of its kind on the disease in the
history of oral hygiene were made
known.
These tests proved that chloro*
phyll toothpaste was twice as ef
fective for quickly reducing acute
gingivitis-compared with brush
ing teeth with a white toothpaste.
The independent project, which
was made possible by the coopera
tion of Msgr. Nicholas H. Wegner,
director of Boys Town, and his
staff, was co-sponsored by Lever
Brothers Chlorodent toothpaste
and the Rygtan Company, licens

Alaska TB Patients
In Critical Need
Says Social Worker
The critical need for bed space
for tuberculosis patients in Alas
ka was pointed out last week by
Sherral E. Winget, social worker
with the Alaska Native Service
while on a routine visit to Palmer
and vicinity.
Winget cited one case here in
the Valley of a Native mother
who is wasting away in her home
because there is no hospital bed
for her. She is but one of many
in the Territory in similar circum
stances, he said. Native hospitals
are so full that the Territorial
Department of Health and the
Native Service must divide TB
hospital allocaton among patients
who are in the most critical need.
Others must take their medical
care at home; the best way they
can, with the hospital waiting
lists runnng into the hundreds.
The local mother who is so
critically ill was admitted to the
Air Force Hospital in Anchorage
because of a complication and lat
er discharged when it was clear
ed, although doctors expressed
the wish that they had facilities
to keep her there for TB care.
Th husband was recently releas
ed i, m the army but was not
found work. He is trying to nurse
his wife and care for his family
with a small emergency fund
granted by the Territory. With no
Public Health Nurse in the Val
ley, there is no special diet or
instruction available to the
family.
Case loads have doubled in
Southwest Alaska, Kinget report
ed. Poor fishing this past season
was given as the reason. These
cases must be investigated indi
vidually and assistance given
whenever possible.
Winget reported that his de
partment works very closely with
the Department of Public Wel
fare, helping one another where
ever and whenever possible. Mak
ing local visits periodically, Win
