EMPLOYS Teachers

The school board has been exceed
ingly busy since school closed making
arrangements for teachers for the
coming term and up to now have en-
ployed eight, five of whom we're on the
staff last year.
DR.. Copeland has been rendered the
position OF superintendent, but as yet
has not accepted the offer. The board
responded to popular sentiment In
this act and feel they have secured
a man who will place the Ordway
schools In the ranks OF the best In the
state should he accept.
The teachers employed thus far are
Misses Lille Corvan, Susie Adams,
Rosa L. Rice. Emma Corey and viva
Sypher OF the old staff. and Miss A.
May Sharp. Mrs. Ulta Helms and Miss
Pauline Klinkenberg.
Miss Sypher has been teaching the
Box Springs school for the past two
years and Is to be congratulated on
her promotion to place on the city
staff. She will probably be assigned
to the third grade.
Miss Sharp is sister Of our towns
man, r. B. Sharp, and Is ut present 10
California. She will probably teach
the eighth grade.
Miss Klinkenberg has been visiting
in the home OF her sister, Mrs. w. A.
Gray, for several months. Her home
Is In LeavenworLh, Kansas. She will
teach one of the lower grades.
Mrs. Helms has been elected az
teacher ut Box Springs which position
she held several terms prior to Miss
Sypher's Two terms.
Owing to the fact that the board has
decided to employ two extra teachers
thOse employed last term may not be
assigned to the same grades and sev'
eral changes will no doubt be made
after the full corps has been engaged.

Whooping Cough

Whooping cough Is one of the
most contagious of diseases that
children are subject to. So when
this disease is prevalent every pos
sible care should be taken for the
protection of children who have
not been infected.
During the whooping stage the
victim of whooping cough spreads
infected secretions continually
For at least week after the
whooping stops the danger of in
lection is still very great. Some
times the danger continues In a
greater or less degree, for three or
four weeks.
Furthermore the oontagion can
be carried by persons other than
the victims Of the disease, who
have come In close contact with
the patient.
Thus. for absolute protection of
from whooping cough
they should not only be kept from
associating with children who
have, or have recently had the dis
ease, but also from contact with
those who have recently been In
with such children.

TABOO CARPETS
Says a Physician.
Carpets have had their day.

Sui lFulo HdNo Hhu titii way
The carpet is the champion col
lector of dust and germs. To keep
a carpet thoroughly sanitary IL
would be necessary to wash II or
steam ii every week or two-and
of course that can't be done. Sc
the best thing Is to get rid of the
carpet.
IL you have a house with hard
wood floors this is easy. Simply
rip up the carpet and substitute
a few-as few as possible-rugs.
And keep the rugs CLEAN.
II you have am old fashioned
house with a rough floor and can t
afford a new floor, lay down a
good quality of linoleum and
scatter few rugs over that. See
that the floor Is thoroughly clean
and dry before the linoleum is
lafd-then keep the linoleum and
the rugs scrupulously clean. Don't
let water get under the linoleum.
From a sanitary standpoint this
expedient does almost as well as a
hardwood floor.
