OPEN AIR SCHOOLS.

The greatest benefit of the "open air
school, has been the object lesson it
has furnished that all schools could
and should be fresh air schools"
When we learn that physically handi-
capped children with additional lunches
and out of door school rooms compete
in scholarship with physically robust
children, it ought to open our eyes to
the possibilities ahead of normal child
rem with equal opportunities.
When it was learned that sunshine,
fresh air, good food and rest cured con-
sumption, somebody conceived the idea
good for the health of people who had
not yet contracted the disease. If
everybody realized and acted upon that
logic consumption would be rarer than
it is.
Training detectives has elsewhere
taught us principles Of training normal
children. Madam Montessori, you will
recall, developed her system amongst
mentally deficient children. When, by
her methods, these children equalled
children who had started mentally
normal she argued logically that the
same methods ought to make sound
minded childed jump through their
schooling.
The expression "a sound mind in a
sound mind in sound body" has been
repeated so often that it has ''lost its
punch like an oath which has become
habit. But shouldn't schools build
up children physically, or if not that,
should they not at least refrain from
breaking them.
When we all appreciate and act on
the fact that is more intelligent to pre-
vent children from breaking down in
school than it is to partially cure
the matter there have been broken,
another great gain will have been
made. For one thing it is exceedingly
doubtful if anybody whose health has
been seriously damaged is ever COM
pletely repaired.
Our children can be given most OF
the advantages of an out of door school
room by putting more clothes upon
them and opening wide few more
windows.
Cold air is responsible for the energy
and ruggedness of northern people
Why, them. should we dissipate that
advantage by raising the temperature
of our homes. offices and schools to the
heat and dryness of the Sahara desert

PROPER CARE OF BLANKETS
by Adoption OF Methods De-

II housewives knew what a great
saving there was in having three or
even four sets Of blankets for their

not hesitate to make the outlay for
them. The cotton or silk and cotton
blankets OF June, July and August
should be washed and rebound, IL

wool
Now, the Atwood blankets, as all
housewives know, are most difficult

ways satisfactorily dry cleaned, SO
every effort must be made to keen
them clean. This is done by using
them only in the extreme cold months.

then shaking and airing them care
fully, putting them away. If the up
per sheet is very long, so that il folds
over, and the spread is used over the
blankets, they may really be used two
seasons or more without a real wash
ipg being necessary.
This method prolougs the life Of the
blankets and makes them always seem
new. And once in two years one may
afford to buy new pair of blankets
to use for best or to replace those
that have grown the shabbiest in
service
Old blankets are always in demand
IN the household economy for under
blankets, Ironing board pads, scrub
rags and polishing hardwood floors
and in dozen other ways
The Indian blankets offered in our
markets today are rather new, but
already in demand, especially those
