In the opinion Of Cleveland public
school officials this is the fundamental
thing under the educational system.
And it il the object of extension work
undertaken for this school term. The
establishment of new department OF
school hygiene and the extension oil
school social centers throughout the
city are designed to accomplish the
single result OF teaching children how
to grow mentally and physically In
way most interesting to the children
themselves.
What shall It profit child to gain
an education and lose his health?" is
the question asked by Dr. e. A. Peter
son. head OF the hygiene department,
in urging parents to lend their en-
.couragement and active assistance.
Within few weeks social center
clubs will have been formed in every
sCleveland public school Mrs. Sarah
W. Hyre, principal of Brownell school,
long Cleveland teacher and champ
ion of this work. took the lead by
aiding the organization OF three clubs
for boys and girls to study civics.
The building will be open at night to
the clubs and the children's parents.
Virtually the whole community about
Brownell school will engage In the
study Of civics through the winter
months.

I'VE have known for years that

said Doctor Peterson, but why 1t Is,
no one mas ever explained We wish
ito study this trouble and correct It,
We may find 1t is due to the wrong
color of paper Or the size of type.
ALSO, we will find out what causes
nervous disorders among pupils. We
will make the boy and girl SO inter-

be happiest there, because they will
see that to live and study rightly will
make them grow into strong men and

ANSWERS TO QUERIES.

c. Il D.: II you wish to make a
shampoo, shave up a cupful of soap
in two quarts of cold water. preferably
soft water, and let It stand for TWEEN
ty-four hours, when 1t is ready to use.
II your hair Is very oily 1t Is quite per
MISSILE to add tablespoonful of
laundry ammonia to the two quarts OF
shampoo, or a teaspoonful of salts OF
tartar. Either of these "softeners" is
beneficial II used In small quantities,
but decidedly harmful when used In
too large proportion. Remember al
ways that you must be very thorough
in both the scrubbing and rinsing OF
the hair, and three times for the suds-
ing aud rinsing is none too often.
Inquirer: A curling fluid which
works nicely In the winter often fails
entirely during the summer months.
This is because the air is heavy with
moisture In the hot weather and this
takes the curl out OF the hair quicker
than you can put 1t In. Have you
tried the fluid made from one dram
gum arabic, one dram sugar and two
ounces rosewater? It may prove bet
ter than the one you have been using.
Crush the gum to a powder and put
1t, together with the sugar, in the
rosewater, and let stand till dissolved
and well blended. Moisten the hair
with this fluid just before rolling 1t on
curriers'!
Vera: You can coax more round
ness to your cheeks by giving them
gentle massage every morning with
nourishing cream. Use plenty OF cold
water after the massage, as that Is
good tonic. doubt il the. sage rem
edy will prove a cure for dandruff, and
wish you would use the tonic | so
often recommended. am sure 1t Will
relieve the condition of your scalp
and stop the hair from falling.

EXERCISE IN THE HOME
DAILY TASKS THAT ARE REALLY
BEAUTIFYINc.
Physical Culture Made Easy II One
Can Only Be Brought to Realize
It-teaIth-BrInsIng Agents
Not Properly Appreciated.

Have you ever thought of the great
value Of the exercise you take while
attending to your household duties
Some of the most valuable forms OF
exercise are those associated with the
ordinary tasks of every day life.
The woman with a home, and who
Is fortunate enough to be able to look
after 1t herself. has list of splendid
exercises at her command / discov-
cred this fact number of years ago,
when teaching physical culture. AT
the same time was doing the house
work for my little family of four, and
found some very interesting COM
parsons. There we're over hundred

ing, besides many, so-called whole
body movements. found that large
number of the exercises were exact
duplicates of movements made while
carrying on the homely tasks that are
usually looked upon as drudgegry.
One exercise-called "The Bell Ring
ers"-brought the arm muscles into
play with much the same movement
as we get from sweeping, and after l
discovered this similarity, never took
broom in my hands without thinking
of it, Unconsciously l found that the
task of sweeping had grown to be a
real pleasure and the exercise well
come one.
Another one recall was picking an
imaginary bunch OF grapes from tall
trellis, requiring the body to be bal
anced for a moment upon the toe of
one foot and stretching the arm up
ward in an effort to pluck the tempt
ing fruit which hung almost out Of
reach. The value of the exercise was
in the stretching It gave the muscles,
and how many times have duplicated
1t when trying to take clothesline
from tall pole or when reaching for
something from pantry shelf that
was above my head.
One exercise which I often recall
was the kneeling exercise. The body
was slowly lowered while counting
four till both knees rested on the floor
with the body in an upright position.
This was fairly easy, but the diff
Guilty of the movement consisted In
slowly rising from the lowly position
upon four more counts without touch
ing the hands to the floor or bending
the body forward. l am quite willing
to confess that while | frequently as
sumo the kneeling position when oc-
casion demands 1t, / do not always
rise so gracefully and with as perfect
poise as the exercise requires. But ]
always think of it and know 1t is
splendid for the muscles.
=. | could draw similar comparisons
from each one Of a hundred move
ments, but these are enough to show
the great benefit we derive from the
variety of exercise we go through
every day. and will serve to set us
thinking bit. Everything we do
brings something of value to us. II we
do it pleasantly and cheerfully, no
matter how Insignificant and unimpor-
tant 1t seems. It will aid us material
ly to gain in health and happiness IL
we try to turn the homely things Of
daily life into pleasures with full re-
alization of their great value as
health-bringing agents instead of con-
sidering them in the light of irksome
duties.

In such year is 1t wise to hold

I fear you think your answer is com.

pointed. I think girls of the age mem

each one to come with suggestion

Southern Utah, received a seri-
Gus injury in his home which for

Foster left the bank after the

as usual, but lay down on a
couch to rest. Shortly after w.

and he started up to answer it
1t is presumed that the sudden
rising caused him to become sud-
denly seized with blindness and
to pitch forward on his face.
The first intimation of anything
wrong was a call for help direct
ed to Mrs. Foster. who was in
an adjoining room, and rushing
to his aid, she found him en- the
floor with his head resting on
his hands, his face covered with
blood. DR.. A. N. Leonard was
hastily summoned and found
q cut on the upper lip which re.
uuired several stitches to close,
and a bruise underneath the
chin. The presumption is that
in falling Mr., Foster struck a
window sill before reaching the
floor. He was in a semi-con-
scious condition and remained sc
until Monday morning, when he
began to show signs of rapid i'm
