Bureau autoists who park their
machines in the rear of the old
building should have some consid-
GRAFTON for the fellow who comes
along a little later. and leave space
for him if possible. With a good
wide roadway in which to make the
turn, there is absolutely no reason
why close and straight parkings
should not be made, thereby per-
mittinS the parying OF many more
machines. 1t has been noticed that
some fellows, in parking their ma
chimes take up considerably more
room than is necessary, and the
writer has been requested to bring
this matter to their attention. 1t
should not be necessary to detail a
man to see that each machine is
closely and poperly packed right
next to the last machine.

up a cut finger. administer the nee.
essary remedies for simple ailments,
and firm to impress the necessity for
preventive measures, such as rub
bers and Umbrellas.
At school, women-teachers and
school nurses-prove that health
can be taught, and link together the
home and the school in the effort to
prevent or correct the physical de-
fects which the school doctor points
out.
The touch OF the trained nurse,
with its power to soothe and to heal.
Is second in its comfort in sickness
only to the trained eye and mind OF
the doctor To great masses of peo-
pie, the visiting or bubble health
nurse, is a constant friend and ad-
visor in health and an immediate
and grateful aid in sickness, more
intimately in touch with the family
and the home than any other agent
of health. More and more, the bene-
fits of medical science ARE being

and child by women, either as visit.
