A nurse - dressed in a white nurse’s uniform and cap like nurses wore years ago! - will share procedures that were used in the early 1900’s to treat routine illnesses and injuries! Using available household items and things grown in the garden, different cures to health problems will be discussed and compared to how they are treated today. Students will be surprised to learn what can cure hiccups. Students will be involved in the demonstrations.
