ARUNDEL-ON ON-THE-BAY
WITHOUT SANITARY SUPERIOR.
Among Summer Colonies in Maryland
Says Board Of Health Survey.

The following letter has been sent
each Of the residents of Arundel-on-
the-Bay, the popular little residential
colony six miles from Annapolis. The
place has been visited and inspected by
the State and Federal health officials
who speak OF IL in commendatory
manner regarding its sanitation and as
a health resort The letter follows:
May 20, 1915.
Dear Sir-Thc Sanitary Survey of
Anne Arundel county. now being made
by the United States Public Health
Service and the State Department of
Health of Maryland, develops some in
formation of great interest to those
who own or occupy property al Arun-
del-on-the-B Bay
1t clearly appears that the residents
of this place have shown unusual in
telligence in the disposal of sewage
and other waste matters. The con
struction and equipment of the outdoor
closets. while not perfect. are good
enough in general to justify a state
ment that Arundel-on-the-B Bay might be
without a superior among waterside
communities, if few inexpensive i'm
provements were made. and if the san
itary removal of waste were made reg
ular and systematic
1t viii give US great of pleasure to
furnish all information and assistance
as we can command. for the purpose of
bringing Arundel-on-the-B Bay, by an
easy step, to superior statute among
the waterside colonies.
Yours very truly

THE IMPORTANCE OF READING

"A school superintendent was ask
ed" says Grace B. Faxcn, ''how he
managed to advance his pupils in all
Of their studies so much more rapid
ly than his predecessor had done. He
replied, 81 make II a point to bring
them along as rapidly as possible in
reading. In the primary grades / give
more time to this exercise than is
customary In other schools, and
persuade or entice the pupils of high
er grades to read books, newspapers
and magazines, anything wholesome
that will give them practice and at
the same time instruct them. Every
day We spend from 10 to 20 minutes
asking and answering questions about
what we read. To excite curiosity, we
post the most important caption lines
from columns OF the newspapers. The
next morning nearly every one OF the
older pupils is prepared to give par
uculars on the subject of the pre-
vious days bulletins. II I can get
our pupils to read, 1t Is easy to induce
them to study; by as much es they
become more expert in reading, so
much Is the labor Of pursuing their
other studies reduced and their en-
joyment heightened"
/ hope that each teacher in Ander-
son County. will make reading the
most enthusiastic recitation in the
school room, and then the other sub
iects will not be difficult for the pu-
pills to grasp. Teach the children TO
glance from their books occasionally,
1t adds life to their reading. Read
as you talk"
urge each teacher (through the
help Of the trustees and the School
improvements Association) to add
supplementary reading to their IL
brary. She should order a book for
each child in the class. These books
are to De kept in the library and used
In the class frequently to vary the
monotony OF the regular reader
The following provision was made
by the general assembly for supple
mentary readers.
