triton Worst Offender.

The following cou of a clinic
that was held in Idaho Falls is a
good indication of the work that could
be accomplished by a competent nurse
in Power county:
The farm bureau was especially
fortunate last month in securing the
services of DR.. Raphael S. Olsen, the
noted child specialist of Salt Lake, in
holding a children's clinic in Idaho
Falls on July 2S. DR.. Olsen is an ex-
tension lecturer of the University OF
Utah, and came to us through the
courtesy of the extension service of
the University of Idaho.
In each case examined, the ailments
were pointed out, the cause discussed,
and the remedies suggested, so that
each mother present received the BEN
efit of the doctors remarks, and
could apply them to her own chillren.
Out of the sixty-seven children ex-
amined, only six were found to be
normal in weight and height, and five
OF these had other defects of various
natures.
The following t%abulation shows the
variety and extent of ailments:

everything in the store if you
planted a cannon behind the door
and that's the time the adver-
tisement is sent out on it's holy
mission. 1t makes light work for
the advertisement, for chalk
sign on the sidewalk could do all
that was needed and have half
holiday six days in the weeks
but who wnts to favor an adver-
tisement? They are built to do
hard work and should be sent out
in dull days when a customer has
to be knocked down with hard
facts and kicked insensible with
bankrupt reductions and dragged
in with irresistible slaughter Of
prices before he will spend a cent.
Write this down where you'll
fall over it every day. The time
to draw business is when you
wan business and not when you
have more buiness than you can
attend to already.
