THOUGHT she SHOULD
CLOSE The SCHOOL

Owing to the typhoid scare at Pele-
kunu, Miss Naopala, the school teacher,
has had but few pupils in attendance
recently at the school. On Monday
there were but four children present,
the remainder of the small community
of pupils being on the sick list. Some,
however, were recovering from an over
indulgence in green mangoes. On the
day of the arrival of the relief expe-
dition, Miss NaoDala was uncertain
whether she should close the school for
a few days until the village health
became normal.

calmly, not to say most unhealthful,
habits of sitting, standing and walk
ing.
DR.. Gulick concludes that a great
deal of the spinal curvature can be laid
to the custom of carrying heavy loads
of books daily, the burden usually
borne on the same side. In this I'M
wise habit the doctor finds girls out
number the boys as offenders, the fool
ish maids thinking to advertise their
intellectually by the bulk of their
bookish burden; boys always having
too much business on hand after
school to laden themselves down thus.
This is not a mere fling at girlish
vanity, but the result of examination
of large number of school children.
The Investigators report that some
thing like S5 per cent. of girls are af-
flicted with school deformities" to
Is per cent. of boys.
The very girl that should be I'M
hampered, spend her time in hop, skip
and play out of doors after school la
bors are over, is the very one that
goes to the extreme In weighing her
self down with school burdens rhe
Tribune writer says: Girls especially
enjoy going along the street with
plethoric bundles. They imagine
others view their stacks of educational
literature with envious eyes, and say
as they pass by: They must be goin'
to graduate pretty soon Look what
a lot of books they've got One child
was found that carried p blank pads
of paper to swell her pile"
DR.. Gulick suggests that as ca "a
child as a rule makes two trips day
to school, he and she divide the bur
den in two parts. and that the books
be carried on alternate sides. Also
the suggestion is made that each child
carry a knapsack slung from the
shoulder, as is done in some schools
in Europe.
Prof OBrien criticises school sur
roundings thus: Notice haw the

desks are all of one size, while he

girls sit in deformed attitudes that
the conditions under which they work
compel them to assume. In time the
attitude becomes habitual and they
suffer for life from 'schoolroom de-
formity'
Eat first and during the growing
years the deformities are merely
postural, that is to say the bones and
ligaments have not permanently
grown crooked, If such a term may
be allowed. In time the deformity be-
comes bony one, and cannot then
possibly be cured. Some of the most
common deformities are round shout
ders. The term Is an exceedingly gem
eral one. 1t may mean that the
child, either through habitual SLOUGH
mess or through general weak
ness, especially of those muscles
between the shoulder-blades, has
permitted his shoulders to drop
forward causing the typical rounded
appearance, of the back between the
shoulders, with its accompanying hor-
ror of flattened chest and sunken alb
domen. 1t may mean also that there
is an unnatural antero-lateral curva-
ture of the spinal column due either
to the habitual dropping of the head
forward or to a disease of the verte-
brae known as Potts disease"

ments of the school itself. Each
teacher could roughly make tests of
the sight and hearing. Procure card
with the test letters on it. Each child
should be able to read the let
ters at given distance, usually
16 feet, with either eye, the other be-
ing covered by card A card printed
with diamond type should be read at
distances of from two to four inches,
varying with the age of the child, If
any child shows defective eyesight the
teacher should insist that an oculist
be consulted at once"
To make a simple test of hearing.
Prof. O'Brien says: Seat the child
and hold a watch near one of the
ears, closing the other with the hand.
Tell the child to sit with closed eyes
and say whether or not the ticking OF
the watch can be heard. Gradually
withdraw until it is 80 or 40 inches
from the ear.
Having searched for and removed
the prevailing reasons for incorrect at
titudes, insist on proper positions. AL

Again, such a carrying of the head
forward may be due to some eye
trouble.
Another common deformity is an
unnatural curving of the spine in the
dorsal region, or, as it is popularity
called, in the small of the back.
Slouching down in the seat is the
cause. There are numerous deform-
tiles. such as wry neck. knock-knee,
etc.
Now as to the remedy. 1t is alto
gether wrong to try to correct this
growing evil by ordering the boy or
girl 10 sit straight The cause of
the incorrect position must be sought,
In most cases it will be found to be

County School Superintendent. l.

AS spring election time is draw
ing near, and a new county school
superintendent is to be elected,
and as that office should be filed
by a most competent person, it
would be well for the citizens Of
this county, to consider who they
want to preside over their schools
for the next two years.
VIM ID. Fuller, who has been
principal of our High school the
"a I few years has announced his
candidacy for that office. Grant
Cook, teacher of the Grammar de-
partment of our High school, an
Eagle River young man, we VI
derstand, may also be candidate
this spring for that office. J. j
Murray, principal of the Wood
ruff school, has made known his
intention of also becoming cam
didate for that office.
Of the qualifications of the
above three gentlemen. should all
decide to enter the field, are the
best, and is in the hanis of the
sound minded and thoughtful CT
tizens, to say which one they de-
sire TO handle the reins over our
schools for the ensuing two years.
Now is the time to think about 1t
and when you go to the polls on
election day you will make no
mistake.
