 Among the physicians who ad- dressed the children and told them the things they should observe to keep clean and healthy, explaining each subject in such 8 manner that everyone readily understood, were Doctors Rosa Rowland, Minor, Pol lard, Riggs, Ellsworth, Hallman and Tribble.
 Rabbi Rhine, Rev Trimble and Rev. Hickok also made addresses in the afternoon, and anotacr interest ing feature was the distribution of tooth burshes and tooth paste to the pupils by the ladies of the School Inn provement Association. There were some there who admitted tliat tooth brushes and tooth paste were assets they did not possess, but it's different in this respect now. and, needless to state, all who were instrumental in ] this observance were more than pleased with the excellent results achieved.

ON A PICTURE.
(RY M. ". C.)

Lines enclosed with the photo graph of young lady, which was returned to her for reasons eminent ly satisfactory to the young lady) For days I've watched this picture
 days of my vacation Watched it in the morning, watch ed it in the night; Plead with it, unceasingly prayed
 prayed for mere probation; Yearned for a reversal of the
 whitening blight. Face of mystic goodness, terrific in
 its beauty,
 Powerful in it's purity, poignant in
 it's truth; Face of shining soul-beams of loyal
 ty and duty.
 How it quails and qualms me,
 without rue or ruth! Could those eyes but penetrate my
 souls deep recesses And see the warning elements with
 which my heart is filled, Surely some compassion for what
 me so distresses
 Would be felt; and surely the
 tumult would be stilled. Face of smiles beatifed! Why that
 tinge of sadness Fitting like summer cloud around your lips and eyes? l IDurst a grewsome sentiment miti-
 gate your gladness? Durst untoward circumstance mix
 your songs with signs? Strange that while l watch you
 sense of sting or stain or sin

 Comes not to mar the pleasure Of
 my enraptured soul. An Angel with flaming sword has
 stood from the beginning To drive all evil from you and pro-
 tect your sacred goal, Cruel is the fate that drove all in-

POEM TO A HOT SPRINGS GIRL

 The following beautiful poem, "On a Picture" was written to a we'll known Hot Springs woman.
 Although the peom was printed in one of the leading newspapers and in one, or more, magazines it has never before been told that it's in- spiration was Hot Springs girl. She had represented this city in a biz social function in a large Southern city and her picture had appeared in one of the largest South ern dailies and in wellknown magazine.
 She had allowed an admirer, a gentleman friend, to retain the photograph after a newspaper cut had been made from it.
 Months after she requested the re turn of her photograph and was pleasantly surprised to find the fol lowing beautiful lines scribbled in pencil on the ordinary wrapping paper encasing the photograph. She still has the original copy of the poem and the photograph.
 The author of the poem is well known writer, being considered one of the most brilliant newspaper editorial writers in the United States.

There was also a very cred itable display of pupils work in drawing, composition, geography and nature study arranged neatly. | In addition to a fair attendance of patrons and neighbors, the school was visited by Superintendent D.

 Tn response to a request for a talk, Superintendent Crockett made ten minute address, praising the work of the pupils, the teacher and referred to the excellent reputation that school has always borne Then he gave the children and patrons a talk setting forth his ideas about advancing the children and the school.
 He requested samples of the work exhibited to place in his office.

ALL WOMEN SHOULD

ERE is an opinion held by the broad

her mate and the father of her
children: that we should have a
better race Of beings If women did
not have to wait patiently to be
chosen.
Well, wome are not waiting to
be chosen as much as they did. The
modern woman learns a business or

busy that she doesn't worry a whole
lot about being chosen until the

up the shade as she spoke. Helen
was surprised to sec that She was a

five. In the dim light of the hall she
had appeared much older and her
qucrulous voice had added TO that old
appearance.
She bent over the machine and
looked at it carefully. Then she
