where thirsty things find it and doesn't paint

refreshment pure and clear, to tired and painting
critters; and old soaks drink it with a tear, and
find II the bittsrs From dark abandoned bars
they come and brook they totter they're shut

They swear that such a drink is fierce. compared

Pensacola Journal:
1t has come to my attention that
the results of the physical examina-
tions of pupils of the city schools are
made known directly to the children
many of these children not knowing
the meaning of the terms that express
the diagnosis of their physical con-
dition have been very much frightened
and arrive home after school in state
of nervous excitement, and very
great impression is made on the older
pupils TO inform them of their ply
steal defects, why do so?
I would suggest to these examining
physicians that it would be wise not
to express their opinion before these
children, use card system, and place
their diagnosis on same. turn card
over to the teacher and have some
sent to parent or guardian.

me, and thank the physicians not to
inform their children of their condi-
ton.
