DOMESTIC ARTS
WELL UNDER WAY
Nearly All Pupils Are Making
Rapid Strides in Popular
Course

Teachers of Domestic Arts have
their work we'll under way at the
Edison Junior High School. Every
girl in the school is enrolled in these
courses. The girls in the Com
,mercial and Academic sectors will
have one period. The girls in the
Commercial and Academic sectors
will have one period in this work
each while those who have enrolled
in the Manual Arts courses will have
two periods per week. Some special
students will have three periods per
week. This program can not be
carried out, however, until the
school is able to operate on a full
time basis. In the meantime very
satisfactory results are being at
tanned.
Miss March who teaches the
seventh and part of the eighth grade
and Miss Heagy who teaches part Of
the eighth and ninth grade report
that fully ninety-five per cent. of the
girls throughly enjoy the work and
are showing rapid improvement, the
girls take great pride in doing neat
work and are rapidly learning the
pleasure that comes from work well
done.
One OF the underlying aims Of the
course is to teach the student how
to help themselves and thus serve
the community. With this in view
the girls have addressed themselves
to the task of preparing linen for
the Domestic Science Department
Thus far they have made several
hundred towels for the Domestic
Science kitchens and upwards of six
hundred individual towels for their
individual use while working in the
Domestic Science kitchens.
The girls of the Domestic Science
courses are not only taught how to
prepare food but how to serve 1t at
formal dinner to their invited
guests. For this purpose table linen
is necessary and the Domestic Arts
girls are making this linen which
consists of several table cloths and
several dozen napkins. Other girls
are at work making covers for the
ironing boards which will be used
by the Domestic Arts Department.
Still other girls are making curtains
for the shower baths. Because the
girls are helping in this way to pro-
vide equipment for the school they
are acquiring the feeling of personal
ownership which will have a marked
effect upon the way they will care
for this property when using it.
They will thus feel that Edison be-
longs to them. The girls are also
making sewing bags in which to keep
their scissors, thread needles and
soforth, needed while pursuing their
work in these courses.
At the present time the Domestic
Arts Department has two sewing
machines, five ironing boards. and
many sewing tables. Three more
sewing machines will be added in
the near future. The department is
housed in two large and well-lighted
rooms with a fitting and a store
room situated between them so that
these rooms are easily accessible to
the students from either workroom.
The school provides all the material
from which these articles for school
use are made.

Landing Fields Through
Pennsylvania Towns Are
Essential For Flyers

In line with the policy of the Air
Service, Lieutenant ]. H. Sullivan
appeared before the goth Annual
Convention of the Pennsylvania
League of third class cities. 1t.
Sullivan selected as his subject the
advisability of municipality owned
landing fields. He told them about
placing the name of the town on
the roof of their railway station and
the advantages of a municipal map
for use in the assessors department.
The value of a municipal aerial
Photographic map for use in the
assessing department was explained
by the statement that all natural ad-
vantages and real estate improve
ments, municipal and private, were
very plainly shown on such a map
The appraising of valuation of prop
erty in municipality could thus be
more fairly made. A definite plan
of operation was adopted by the Con-
Nention whereby eachh city inter
ested through the administration of
the Mayor. would form a committee
on aviation in their respective COM
munity. The functions of this COM
mittee would be to select a landing
field and devise ways and means to
maintain it: to arouse public inter-
est in the development of CONNER
cial aviationA using their community
landing field as an operating center.
Among the cities represented at
the Convention was Scranton, Pa.
IT will be noted that Scranton, Pa.
is the site of the main field on the
Lackawanna Air Trail which was
opened recently by the Scranton
Aero Club with the cooperation of
the United States Air Service.

General Ireland Honored
by Edinburgh College

The Royal College OF Surgeons of
Edinburgh. Scotland, has conferred
Honorary Fellowship on Major Cen
eral Merritte w. Ireland, the Sur
geon General of the United States
Army.
This ancient and famous college
decided to mark the termination of
the world war by offering its hon.
orary fellowship to a representative
of each group of the medical forces
of the British Empire and it's Allies,
as indicating appreciation of serv-
ices rendered. 1t is explained that
Major General Ireland was selected
as representing the American Army
Medical Corps.
The Royal College of Surgeons of
Edinburgh dates from the year 1906,
1t conferred only 33 honorary fell
lowships from 1871 to 1898 and the
total number conferred to date does
mot exceed rs.
General Ireland has been further
honored, by an invitation to de-
liver the address at the Massachu-
sets General Hospital in Boston on
October 18th in celebration of
EITHER Day"
AS early as 1905 inhalations of
ether were recommended by a DR..
Warren Of Boston and in 1912 ether
i1ntoxication by inhalation is said
/ to have been frequently practiced.
1t was first used as an anasthetic by
DR.. c. L. Long, of Georgia, but 1t
was not until October, 1S46 that Dr.
Warren at the instance of w. T. q.
Morton, of Boston, used ether as a
surgical anasthetic at the Massa-
chusetts General Hospital and made
its value public knowledge. A few
days subsequently c. T. jackson, of
Boston claimed to have first made
known to Morton the use of ether
for the prevention of pain in dental
