Should Be Quarantined

Many physicians believe that anyone
who has bad cold should be COM
pletely isolated to prevent other mem
bers of the family and associates
from contracting the disease, as colds
are about as catching as measles.

himself of a cold the less the danger,
and you will look a good while be-
fore you find better medicine than
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to aid
you in curing a cold.

AGRICULTURE, A
NEW FEATURE TO
BE IN MCMILLAN
Teacher of Vocational Training VIII
Be Under the Supervision Of Ma
tiOnal Government.

Agriculture is to be a new feature
to be introduced into the curriculum OF
Mcmillan High School this fall. In
the past, agriculture has been taught
hut not the vocational agriculture.
The teacher will be under the super
vision of the government who are
giving this vocational training to all
the boys who desire them.
Two credits will be given for the
completed work when done at the
school. Along with this subject the
student must take two other courses
An interesting feature Of the course
is that the father of the student u
agree to finance some farm project
such as raising a half-acre of corn or
a calf or some other farm project,
He also must agree to let the boy
have the profits.
This is an organized effort OF the
Federal government to teach the boys
Of this country practical agriculture.
Unless sixteen boys are signed up at
the high school at the beginning OF the
veal the required federal and state
aid can not be secured. Those desiring
admission should make a formal ap-
p~lication for it.
