supplied with comfortable, con

These should be made in sizes to
suit their occupants SO that the
feet of each pupil may rest on the
floor while sitting in natural and
easy position Every part of each
room should be well lighted so as
to not strain the eyes from lack of

other instructive devices.
These are but few of the many
requisites in good school sanitation,
but hope these incoherent and
hasty jottings may serve the pur-
pose of awakening thought and
eliciting discussion along lines of
such vast importance to the welfare
and the success of our public
schools. Let us as parents, teach

SCHOOL SANITATION.

whose parents or guardians are
responsible and should be made to
feel the stigma or disgrace they
bring upon themselves by negli-
gence. All of this can be and
should be banished from our
schools. They are easily prevent
able and should not be tolerated.
1t is a well established fact that
most if not all communicable
diseases are caused by germs that
find their indus or breeding place
in filth and dirt Then the ques-
tion arises how can we keep our
school houses i'll the best sanitary
condition possible. If neglected
dirt and dust from various sources
will accumulate and the health of
both teachers and pupils will be
ieopardized At the close of each
days session all dirt and dust should
he removed by the broom and
duster with opened doors and win
dows. This should be followed by
sprinkling or spraying the floors
and lower part of the walls with
water made germicidal with anti
septics, such as phenol. formalin
or calcium chloride. After the
sweeping and dusting the desks
and other furniture and apparatus
should be carefully y wiped with
sterilized cloths moistened with
the antiseptic solution. Then the
doors. windows and all ventilators
should be left open till next morn
ing. On Saturday of each week
the walls should be brushed or
wiped off with care. the floor thor
oughly mopped with hot water and
antiseptics. and when there is in
fectious disease. thoroughly fumi-
gated. When there is no epidemic
disease prevailing the fumigation
should be done at least once Il
month.
Fumigation to be effective should
be done in the most thorough man
uer under the supervision of n
competent health officer. AS ordi-
narily done it is only waste of
time and material and fosters Il
sense of security without atfording
any protection against disease.
Only dustless or hygenic crayon
should be used on the black boards.
No crayon containing gypsum or
plaster of paris. should ever be al
lowed in a school room. The dust
from such is quite irritating to the
eyes, the nose and throat. the
bronchi and the lungs. Every
school house should be so construct
ed as to be warmed in cold weather
by stoves or other heating appar-
atus, so that all can be comfortable.
Sufficient ventilation without direct
currents should be at all times
maintained, so that each scholar
shall not be compelled to breathe

IN no other article of use have history and rO

part in the building of nations; they have stood as
pledges of security: they have conveyed defiance

has so entered into the affections of men, ruled
the transactions of life In the history of dress
gloves stand unique.
So remote is the antiquity of gloves that no one
say definitely when these articles first came into
Hebrew scholars that glove is meant instead
of shoe in the story of Ruth where it is stated that
the shoe is taken for claim, and again in Psalms:
"Over EdOm will cast out my shoe. Mural pant
ngs in Thebes represented ambassadors bearing
presents of gloves and it is thought that among the
Israelites gloves were Worn only by of rank
ceremonial occasions. Men wore them for centuries
before women adopted them, and at first they were
not for warmth by either sex; for the sleeves

hands with them.

their literature. They mentioned in the "Odys-

into Great Britain: where however, they did not

Even Cave Dwellers Had Them

RUT the ancestry of gloves has a renoteness far
- beyond all this for Professor William Bovd
DaWkins, who has made the dwelers a study,
that these prehistoric men Wore gloves, even
the elbow variety, made from roughly dressed skins.
When the dwelers lived no man knows; but
geolOgiStS have said later than eighty thousand
years ago and surely gloves with such a record may
well claim to be of the first families!
Coming back to the comparatively modern be-
ginning of the Christian find that the church
took the manufacture of gloves into its care, it
did much else that useful and necessary in
those days About 100, Charlemagne granted
limited right of hunting to the abbot and monks of
Sithn for skins to be made into gloves; and more
than this. the church employed gloves in its
monies to denote that the hands they covered
should be Chaste. clean. and free from stain" There
are many legends of the church relating of gloves.
Beautiful workmanship and embroidery of gold
thread, silk and Jewels were exhibited on many of
the gloves belonging to the church. New College,
Oxford, still preserves par once worn by William
Of Wykeham. MANY gloves by the bishops
wrought with pearls and other precious stones,
and were bequeathed as legacieS. SO great became
the extravaganza in the matter of gloves in the
church that sumptuarv restrictions affecting the
clergy were passed which is the sole instance of
such legislation connected with gloves.
Not only were gloves associated with ecCleSiaS-
teal power, but they also the sign of kngly
might. MOnarchS were invested with authority by
the delivery of glove, and register of the Parlia
ment OF Paris, 1904 says that The Earl of Flanders
by the delivery of glove into the hands of the
King Philip the Fairl gave him possession of the
goode town OF Flanders"
