HEALTH IS IMPORTANT
Basis for All Work in Schools,
Declare Experts.
Uncle Sans Agencies Are Working to
Extend Sanitary Regulations Of
Cities Of Rural Communities.

The most important element in the
education Of children is the establish
ing Of good health and right living
habits, according to those experts OF
Uncle Sans bureau of education who
make this their life problem. Half q
century ago the attention of those re-
spOnsible for the care Of children In
city schools was drawn to these i'm
portant features Of school and life and
work, and much has been done, say the
experts, in the last two decades for
the Improvement Of the sanitary fea-
lures Of school houses and grounds and
for school regimen in cities.
Only recently, however, it is pointed
out, has much attention been given to
health conditions in country schools,
but rural school sanitation is now re-
ceiving the attention of several govern
mental and state agencies. An inter-
esting study Of rural school sanitation
has recently been completed by the
United States public health service in
O certain part Of the state of Indiana.
It is thought that the conditions
found in that locality are, at least in
the main, those that exist to more or
less degree in many Of the rural schools
in the country. For one thing it was
found that there Is an undue number
Of one-room rural schools. Among
other things it was thought by the Of
ficials making the survey that an I'M
due number Of old buildings are being
utilized which have largely passed the
limits Of usefulness for educational
purposes. Many of these, it is said,
were without the proper sanitary fa-i
cilities and some were even without,
any water supply. Many had faulty IL
Elimination of the classrOOms and still
others were without adequate class
room equipment; some were improper
W heated and poorly ventilated and
still others presented evidences of In.
efficient janitOr's service.
The large number of children pre-
senting physical defects Of such gravity
as to demand specialized medical and
surgical attention, say the experts, is
an evidence Of the need Of medical
supervision of the school children OF
the counties in the interests Of the
child's educational advancement and
for the protection Of the community
health.
The undue number of mentally de-
fective and retarded school children
revealed by the study made emphasizes
the necessity, say the experts, Of the
mental classification of the children for
the purpose Of revealing those who are
in need of institutional or individual
lied treatment.

SAVE YOUR BOTTLES IS CRY
Uncle Sans homecoming Specialists
Say They Can Be Used in Place
Of Regular Jars.

Homecoming, specialists of Uncle
Sans department Of agriculture urge
every housekeeper to save bottles
especially wide-necked ones-for put
ting up fruits, preserves, jellies, jams,
and fruit juices. Saving Of bottles is
highly important, they say, as there
threatens to be serious shortage Of
regular Jars and preserving cans this
season. O. l%h IT.
The fruit products named, if sealed
with corks and paraffin, can be kept
perfectly in these makeshift contain
ers. Jellies, jams, and preserves can
be kept even in ordinary drinking
glasses, by, the use of paper and par
affin. Fruit juices should be packed in
ordinary small-necked bottles.
The specialists are also urging all
members of canning clubs and others
not only to can products, but to dry and
evaporate all such products as apples,
pumpkins and squash. They advise
strongly that if containers are scarce
lOCully, lllOSC Ill StOCh SllOuIu DC uSSu
to preserve perishable products which
have the highest nutritive value.
Nothing should be packed in jars or
cans which can be conserved effective
ly in other ways.
Candy containers or other glass jars
with screw tops or glass shoppers, and
in fact any receptacle of glass, crock
cry or porcelain, can be sealed with
cork or paper and paraffin.
Large tin canisters or tin cans with
removable covers, provided the body
of the containcr is air and water
tight, will be found useful In can
ming certain fruit products. Such con-
,tainers can be sterilized and their cov-
ers Theoretically sealed In place with
solder or wax.

Strontium Ore Produced.

For the first time in many years
strontium ore has been marketed from
deposits in the United States, accord
ing to J. NJ. Hill of the United States
geological survey, department Of the
interior. Most Of the ore marketed in
1916 was produced in Arizona and
California. The ore mined in the state
Of Washington was not marketed. The
domestic output was equal to about
10 per cent of the ordinary demand,
which amounts to 1900 tons. The
British embargo on strOntium salts
need cause little disquiet among Amer
lean users, it is declared. for abundant
ore is no doubt available in this cOun-
try, and American chemists have
shown that they can profitably make
the salts needed here.

CUBA IS BEST SHOE MARKET
Offers Greatest Possibilities Of Any
Country in World for American
Manufacturers, It Is Said.

Cuba is at present the best market
in the world for American footwear.
says a report on the subject just pub
lished by Uncle Sans bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce. AL
though the climate is tropical, very
few even of the poorest natives go
without footwear Of some kind, and
the per capita consumption of shoes
is therefore very heavy. Over 80 per
cent of the business is done by Amer
lean firms, as there is no competition

In spite of Americas strong position

References to Snow in Bible.

The historical books of the Bible con-
tain only two notices Of snow actually
falling: II Samuel % 20 and l Mac
cahees 13 90; but the illusions to
snow are numerous in the poetical
books. At Jerusalem snow often falls
to the depth of a foot or more in Janu-
airy and February, but it seldom lies.
At Nazareth it falls more frequently
and deeper.
