who were fortunate enough to be in Ramble school on Health Day recey. ed.
 Mir Allen was received with great applause by the children with whom he is a great favorite since he won .such a large place in their hearts dur ing his two years principaship at Ramble school In his talk he men toned several common habits danger ous to health warning the children against them, such as running the hand along the bannisters in a public place and then carelessly brushing the hand across the face. He called attention to a barbed wire trailing dangerously beside the broken steps which lead from Ravine street to the school ground The barbed wire be- ling private property could only be pushed back so as to be less in the way, but some of the fourth grade boys knowing that there was also a poison ivy vine trailing dangerously near those steps went down at noon and with much effort and care sue ceeded in digging it up by the roots. The basis of the Health Day move. ment is that children are eager to do whatever they know how to do.

Hamp Williams, always inter- ested in the school children, visited the school in the morning, speaking of the Bonneville Sanatarium for tuberculosis The little children were much impressed with his picture of fortune and misfortune and the lesson taught in the proper care of their health while young. Vita the upper grades Mir. Williams went more into detail describing the life and treat ment at the sanatarium and telling how admittance might be gained should it become necessary.
 pr. Berrows address to the chil- dren was full of beneficial knowledge and practical suggestions which the children readily appreciated, such as, washing the hands often and forming habits of neatness and system both at home and at school.

These 800 children are al ways glad to see and hear tleir super iatendent. and they will doubtless re- member the story Of the dangerous widow" as long as they sec flies. This. however, may not be very long, for with 500 fly-swatters running amuck the people of the Ramble school district are not expecting to see many flies this summer Before the S l. A.
