have small lunch allowances, we have

the foundation of the luncheon, but

ham or oatmeal crackers, or graham
and whole wheat bread may be taken
with the milk. and this with fruit will
make an absolutely satisfying lunch
if you have not accustomed your pal

The girl who al afford a more clab-

indulge in too many made dishes, such
as ragouts, croquettes, meat pic

or bit of steak, a slice of roast beef,

easily, but will be better for the com

2,666 treated, while during 1904
there were 1861 examinations and
6,2S2 children were treated, FOR
whom 1865 teeth were filled and
1885 were extracted" The average
number of children examined per
hour is so. They are taught Ito
clean their teeth three times daily,
and especially before retiring. The
dntist also instructs the children in
the use of the tooth brush, each child
receiving a brush for home use.
"Since the introduction of the
treatment there has been a marked
improvement in the general health of
the public school children, and there
is less headache, arache and stomach

that ground for the new house will

club has recently purchased property
at st. George, adjoining the new Car

expected that much good will result
from the efforts of the club through
its several departments.
