If there is a public park in or near the town;
what privileges does it offer, especially for
young people? Is it well taken care of? Well
patronized?
Discuss briefly why you think the Government
should provide these things and what results may
be expected when it does not supply them. How does
the lack of them affect the grown people of a
town, in the end?
II. Special Health Facilities in your Locality.
1. What is the rule as to registering births? What
is the advantage of this? What is the infant
mortality rate?
Of what diseases should the local authorities be
notified?
What diseases must be quarantined? Isolated?
Posted? Reported?
2. Food Supplies. What are milk stations? Does
your community control the marketing of milk to
any degree? Why is the milk question so important?
Are there any laws for your bakeries?
What are the regulations as to the storage and
protection of meat in local markets?
3. Housing. If three families are willing to live
in three rooms in your town, may they do so?
Is there anything to prevent your erecting a
building of any size and material you wish in any
place?
4. Medical Institutions. Is there a public
hospital in your town? Who has a right to use it?
Who pays for it?
Is there a public clinic? Why should there be?
Is there a public laboratory? How would it benefit
your community if there were?
Is there a district nurse? How could Girl Scouts
assist such a nurse?
5. Schools. Is there any medical inspection in
your schools? How did it ever effect you?
Is its work followed up in the home? How are Girl
Scouts particularly fitted to help in this?
Is there a school nurse? Why does it pay the
community to employ one?
Are luncheons served in your school free, or at
low cost? Mention at least two advantages in this
and one disadvantage.
Are there school clinics for eyes and teeth? Why
are some cities providing such clinics?
6. Baby Hygiene. Is there any place in your town
where young or ignorant mothers can ask advice and
instruction in the care of infants? State briefly
why you think such help would benefit the
community in the end.
III. Public Services and Sanitation.
1. Who is responsible for the cleaning of the
streets? Dry or wet method used?
