Next comes the annual school election, which takes place on the third Saturday in May. This is the most important elect ion in the state, for upon the competency or incompetency of the men elected school directors depends the success or failure of the public schools, and the public schools have a direct and posi- tive effect upon the citizenship of the state. So with these facts in view, let every elector go out to the school election and choose the best men in the community to serve on the school board, and then give them a hearty support in the discharge of their duties.

laria Mosquito. Nothing will do so much to abate these dan- gerous nuisances as a thorough "Clean-UD"
 The following is taken from a recent bulletin of the bureau of municipal research:
 The canal zone of Panama is an excellent illustration of what can be accomplished by thor ough cleanup. This country has been converted from a un- healthy one with large mortality from yellow. malaria and typhoid fever to a healthy one with vel low fever entirely eliminated and malaria and typhoid largely re- duced. The death rate last Au gust Was 1920 per l, 1000 of popu- lation which compares favorably with the death rate in 1907 of the state of Pennsylvania GIG. .40), New Jersey Q710), California Q6.OO).
 Start early to weed gardens and yards and the work of keep ing them free during the sum mer will be lessened. Weeds are not only unsightly but are breeding places. especially for mosquitoes. Tin cans and bot ties should be carefully carted away, as an ordinary tomato can will hold sufficient water to breed enough mosauitoes to in- feet an entire city block.
 See that cellars are clean. A coat of whitewash is inexpen- siye. Do not throw rubbish on open lots as the source of con tamination is merely removed from one place and deposited in another. No matter how hum ble, the home can be kept clean, the reward for which is ample in preventing sickness during the heated term.
