Medical Inspection of School Pupils.

The three hundred thousand girls and
boys in the third and fourth class school
districts of Pennsylvania are to undergo
medical inspection by physicians under
the directions of the State health board
within the next two or three weeks. All
the preliminary arrangements for the
work of this inspection have been COM
pleted by DR.. Samuel G. Dixon, COM
missioner of health, and within the next
week, according to dispatches from Har-
risburg, the actual work will begin
throughout the S2l boroughs and 460 town.
ships which are made subject to the in
spection under the act of Assembly passed
by the recent legislature. 1t will take
the 500 physicians who will be appointed
for the task about two weeks to complete
the work in the field. When this is done
all the reports will be sent to the Depart
ment of Health where they will be studied
and wherever record is found ofa child
who is deficient in sight, hearing or other
wise in need of attention, the parent will
be notified by the commissioner. In no
instance will the doctor making the in
spection communicate direct with the
parents. This will be done by DIR. Dixon.
through the teachers, who will receive a
duplicate report which they are required
to keep until the end of the school year.
The first step in the examination of the
pupils will be an Identification record
giving the name of the teacher, location
of the school, age, sex, color and nativity
of the pupil. All of which will be en-
tered on card. The examination will
be made in the school room and when
they so desire the parents or guardian
may be present. The pupils vision will
be tested by the use of Snellen's chart
and the degree of impairment if any
noted. This will be followed by hearing
tests, breathing tests and an examination
OF the cervicsl glands. Skin diseases,
nervous disorders, qusrsntinable dis.
eases, deformities and the general nutri-
tion of the child all are to be considered.
In making the examination no clothing
will be removed and in looking at the
teeth and tonsils the physicians will use
a separate wooden tongue depressor for
each pupil. In addition to the examina-
ton of the pupils the medical inspector
will make thorough report on the sani-
tary conditions Of the school and its sur
Dundings. This will be most complete
as to details. The water supply will also
receive attention, as will also the method
OF serving it to pupils in the school
rOOms.

Word has been received at Clarion that
the secretaryship of the State Board OF

Clarion State Normal. He will In all
probability accept. DR.. Becht has been

seven years and under his administration
the school has had a marvellous growth.
In 1905, his first year, there were sixty
two students presented to the state Board
OF Examiners and in 1911 four hundred
hhy students were presented to this
Board. During the period that he has
been at the head of the institution, all OF
the buildings have been practically re-
modelled, new dormitory costing $75. 900
has been built, and the school is generally
recognized as standing for honest and
thorough work. The student body is in
tensely loyal to DR.. Becht aud all-those
who come TO finish the course and those
who come for spring term only-all
yield to bis superior leadership and give
due honor TO his worth. Trustees, faculty
and students are cognizsnt OF the honor
which has come TO him and they feel that
with his characteristic energy and splen-
did executive ability he is the man for the
place; but It IL with profound regret and
feeling Of great personal loss that they

Election Aftermath.

The official figures Of the recent cleo
tion are given in tabular form In the
REPUBLICAN today, and a study of the
figures is quite interesting. Judge
Hinckley, whose name was on both the
Republican and Democratic ballot, re-
ceiyed slS votes from the former and l49
from the latter party. His Prohibition
opponent has 299 votes. For Associate
Judge Jos. M. Morgan, Republican, leads
with $50 votes to 440 for f. Il. Allison the
Prohibition candidate, and 42l for Judge
Hill, Democrat. Sharp Maxwell, Re-
publican, for Prothonotary, received the
largest vote of any candidate in the field,
1913, against 2lS for X. X. Morrison,
Prohibitionist his only opponent. For
Sheriff VIM. II. Hood, Democrat, leads
his Republican opponent, Charles Clark,
by the narrow margin of II votes, thus
making him one Of four Democratic sher-
IFS elected in Republican counties in this
end of the State, McKesn, Mercer and
Crawford counties electing Democrats.
For County Commissioners Messrs.
Harrison and Scowden, Republicans, and
Mcclellan, Democrat, lead, VIM. Blum,
the other Democrat falling 96 behind Nc
Clellan. For County Treasurer W. II.
Brazee, Republican, leads his Democratic
opponent, j. Il. Russell, l52 votes. Both
these candidates received fisttering sup
port at their homes, Kellettville and
Msrienyille. For County Auditors, A. c.
Gregg Of Brookston and Geo. II. Warden
of Endesvor, Republicans, we're re-
elected, with s. Van Shields of Claring-
ton as the Democratic member of the
board. j. B. Eden and A. NJ. Moore are
respectively the Republican and Demo-
cratic Jury Commissioners. Roy. S.
Braden, Republican, Of Clsrington, will
be the new County Surveyor, leading bis
Democratic opponent, d. W. Clark, l56 in
the vote getting. The two constitutional
amendments were almost lost in the
shuttle, neither of which carried in this
county, and ouly trifle more than q
hundred votes being cast on the question,
pro and con. The largest Socialist vote
cast was for W. F. Weingsrd for Auditor,
225. and the smallest was for ]. E. Whit
more for County Commissioner, 159. A
study Of the table would indicate that in
the two leading parties little more than
so per cent. were straight ballots.

is private. When asked to what purpose
he proposed to devote the we'll known
estate Mr.. Sibley stated it was his inten-

known he has number of schemes along
agricultural lines and no doubt he will
devote considerable time to demonstrat-

along agricultural lines and for many
