Disturbances of the heart in 'child- ren, automatically divide themselves into two groups, those which were pre- sent resent at the time of birth, and are due to defects 'in development, and those which are acquired after birth. congenital heart •conditions, or those preeent at birth, are net uncommon, They are, as a rule, easily recogniz- able, and while they vary materially in extent, the majority of theterm- inate fatally m within a given period of Acquired heartdisease is rarely pre- sent before the second or third year of life, and when found in extremely Young children, is almost always due to a rheumatic infection. Careful examination of 'school age children shows about one per cent. to be suffering from some disturbance of the.'heart. In many instances the pre- sence of this disease was unknown to the,' parents or child -affected. Rheu- matism in some of its forme, St..

Rheumatism does not necessarily have to bs preeent in the toren of acute rheu- matic fever i11 order to damage the heart.

Slight pain or swelling in the joints, of a transient character, should be taken very seriously by the parents and physician. , The early reeognitioii of each dis- eases as diphtheria and scarlet fever and the prompt action of adequate treatment, will do much to Limit the possibility of the infection involving the heart.
