The Frontier Nursing Service wishes to record its sense of  
loss in the passing of Mrs. Henry Ledyard of Detroit. She was I
so widely known in that great city, where her charitable inter-
ests were as extensive as they were keen, that many outside of
her own personal circle will have felt her going. Our organiza- I
tion is but one of many to know her friendly encouragement.  
She was the first person in Detroit two years ago to give us ’_
‘ financial support, when we were but a year old and made our I
first appeal in what was then a strange city. She was one of the  
first members to volunteer her service on our Detroit committee. A
She had offered to open her home for our annual meeting just E1
before she succumbed to this last fatal illness.  
The Frontier Nursing Service will always remember her  
name in connection with its early beginnings and will share a  
- little with her own people the reality of their great loss. l

*1 FOREWORD
  As this Bulletin goes to press we are receiving almost every
`· day supplies from our many friends for the Children’s Christ-
l mas. Even some of our best friends don’t know that we are at
1 present giving nursing and home hygiene care to nearly 3,000
· children, and that this· forms such an active branch of our
l Service that we are putting it under a special Educational _
  Supervisor in the Spring.
¤ Except at Hyden itself, where the Misses Buyers and Miss
Ruth Huston are doing a splendid piece of school and social
work, in co-operation with the local authorities and with our
I health program, and are, of course, halving the Christmas needs,
no other agency but ours is bringing any Christmas joy into
  the lives of these several thousand children, scattered over
, several hundred square miles.
lz It is literally true that the doll you send goes to a little girl
il who has never had a store doll before, and the harmonium or ball
l or top or knife reaches a boy who will receive no other outside
gift. Can you not imagine then, the eagerness with which we
Q are opening your boxes, and the joy with which we shoulder the
, extra work of planning the trees at all of our centers, and dis-
Q tributing the parcels? Every child is to have a toy and a bag
l of candy, and those who need it most will get warm clothing as
  wen. t
Q ·
  We are making a special effort this year to put shoes on
~* those of our children who go barefoot in the winter months, and
_,` who simply can’t get out at all for days at a time in the bitter
l weather. Some of our proudest people, who would not accept
  county relief or any other form of charity, and can’t wrest
, enough out of the barren soil to put shoes on all of the little feet
J of the household, will let us meet the situation in a common fel-
, lowship at the Christmas season. ‘
  In all of our Christmas celebrations we join hands with our
  local committees, who are the leading citizens in their districts
it and who know intimately the problems we have to touch
1 every day. We take this opportunity again of acknowledging
  `

 l

our unbounded debt to the many hours of time which they have  
spent with and for us, to the service without pay which they {
constantly render, to their wise advice and ready understanding.
At the same time we want to extend our grateful appreci-
ation to the hundreds of friends on the outside who are sending
us supplies and money to bridge the accidents of space and time, ll
and link their Christmas with ours. `

THE WORK OF THE FRONTIER NURSING SERVICE AS g
SEEN BY AN ASSOCIATE IN EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH  
` Familiarity with the plans for the Frontier Nursing Service i
since before it was organized, and a month spent in a statistical I
survey of its work at the end of the second year, give me basis j
for the statement that I consider it the outstanding piece of 3
constructive social engineering in the field of health in rural l
regions in our country at the present time. It has been planned ig
. and carried out with acumen and stategy, as well as buoyancy ,,
and thoroughness, and deserves the abundant success that .
should crown a piece of social work which is badly needed, y
I shrewdly contrived, economically practical, and scientifically  
sound.

THE WORK OF THE FRONTIER NURSING SERVICE AS ‘
. SEEN BY A PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE _
A month with the Frontier Nursing Service visiting the V
, various nursing centers, going with the nurses on their rounds, _,_
reading their records and reports and talking with them of their  
  cases sent me away from the mountains of Kentucky saying of  
; the service "needed, practical, and efficient?  —
, If an enterprise may be described by such adjectives need  
i I more be said? Needed? Men, women, and children in the iso- Q  ·

l lated districts of this country wtihout medical or nursing service,
  living by the fruits of their hard labor which provides existence
{ but little if any money, sick as those in towns are sick, dying as
those in towns are dying but without doctor, or nurse. Yes,
needed.
Practical? A service which provides public health nurses
l trained in midwifery who can carry a generalized program,
‘ give prenatal nursing care, attend women through normal labor
and give postnatal care. A s·ervice which provides that the
1 nurses may send for the doctor when absolutely necessary and
l. whose nurses have been trained to "carry on" efficiently while
l the message for help is sent and the doctor travels the 25 or 30
Y miles to the patient. A service which is decentralized and which
{ locates its nurses in the heart of their districts in small health
i centers where they live and from which they cover, on horse-
{ back, an area with a five mile radius. Yes, practical.
l Efficient? A service which wins the cooperation of the
l community itself through the organization of local committees,
A and which makes use of all the help which the community can
j give whether it be in horse shoes or land. A service which keeps
3 its cost per visit down by getting the people to travel to them as
l much as possible, instead of their travelling to the people. A
Q service whose costs compare favorably with the costs of similar
., services in cities where people live at close range, but where
» rents are high. Yes, efficient.

  THE WORK OF THE FRONTIER NURSING SERVICE AS
{ SEEN BY AN ENGINEER
‘ Big Creek, Ky., November 6, 1928.
_ Mrs. Mary Breckinridge, Director,
. Frontier Nursing Service,
_ Wendover, Kentucky.
  Dear Mrs. Breckinridge:
 "i I take this opportunity to write and tell you of my deep
 - appreciation of the work now being done by the Frontier Nurs-
  ing Service, under your direction, in Leslie and Clay Counties.

 6 THE QUAl{'l‘lCl{IiY ISULLIGTIN A
_ ` I have spent twenty-five years in the mountains of South- :2
Eastern Kentucky and South-West Virginia, having been in y
charge of work that brought me in intimate contact with the l
mountain people, and I have seen the extreme primitive life of  
its people, and also the lack of knowledge of the most simple ideas {
of comfort and proper living conditions in the homes. {
I have seen the results of all kinds of social and religious I
work, which has been carried on by the various mission schools  
and centers, and while they have accomplished some wonderful ”
results, I think that the work of the Frontier Nursing Service I
has reached the needs of the mountain people in a way no other Q
organization has been able to accomplish. '
T In my contact with the people in this section, I have heard I
nothing but praise for your work. Your nurses have been able
to go into the mountain cabins and help the mothers and children. j
The mountain people do not express themselves freely about
personal matters, but they have discussed with me your work,
, and always in a way that shows that they realize the help that j
is being given them, and they appreciate it. The results accomp- A
lished have been remarkable. 1
My opinion is that no change can be made in this section J,
until the desires and wants of the people are awakened; that I
they do not know of any other way to live than their present Q
mode of living, and of course will not change until they desire  
to do so by their own will. The Frontier Nurses are teaching ii
them in their homes, and they will change and make their lives ,
more useful to themselves and their country. l
I have seen the lack of proper medical attention—where the  
nearest doctor is from fifteen to twenty-five miles away, and if
will only come at a prohibitive cost, and then accomplis·h nothing ._
‘ on account of the lack of proper living conditions. Your nurses ;,
go in case of sickness or accident and give first aid and are able ·.
to advise whether medical aid is necessary.
I wish to assure you and those associated with you that I  
will at all times do all in my power to help you in your work, l
and that I will be glad to assist you in every way I can.  
, i Yours very truly, Y

·( for the gift of his horse "Snip." We remember "snip" well, as

I of the mother of six little sons. We love having him a perman-
ent member of our stable staff.

V One of the mostwelcome guests that ever rode in to see us
A was Mrs. Langdon Marvin of our New York Committee, who .
— spent five days at different centers this autumn. She is a
J cracker-jack horsewoman and a rare good sport, and nurses and
mountaineers alike, all who met her, enthusiastically enjoyed her.
; * * >k
A During the last quarter we have had more accidents than .
¢ in any other one year; perhaps that is because we are a much
j. larger service than we have ever been before. Miss Dorothy
J White’s horse, Major, fell with her recently, badly injuring her
iv shoulder. A trip into Hazard to see Dr. Collins and for an
  X-Ray showed no bones broken, but the ligaments were so torn
ii that she is still carrying her arm in a sling.

i The worst accident, however, has come to our neighbor,
{ Dr. Mildred McKee, whose services are so generously at the
” disposal of the Hyden Hospital. While riding in the Confluence
‘- district with her baby on the pommel of her saddle, she struck
¥ her head on an overhanging foot bridge and was thrown violently.
* The baby sustained no injury, but Dr. McKee has a fractured
, vertebra. She was taken to our station at Confluence and from
.§ there moved down to Lexington on an improvised Bradford
J frame, where she makes the fourth case of bone injury which
A Dr. Brown has handled for our section! Dr. McKee was fortun-
1. ate in having expert attention within a few hours after her
f' injury. Dr. Johnson of Baltimore happened to be in the
Y mountains on a visit to Dr. Stoddard and both men were within _
ji · sixteen mule-miles of Confluence.
