TRAIL OF DISEASE

Scientists Show Danger in It's Bite
The whole country is infested with
mosquitoes. The government health
service and every other agency known
to man is being used to exterminate
them. Once they Weer looked upon as
an annoyance only; scientists now
know that they leave in their wake
deadly disease germs, especially ma
lara Those who are in a position
to know, vouch for the fact that they
have been the cause of more diseases
and death than all the wars from the
beginning of time.
Mosquitoes will probably never be
exterminated. We can, however, by
proper screening and spraying of our
home daily with TORMENT, rid our
household of them.
TORMENT is a gaseous vapor in
which no insect can live. Sold by
druggists, general stores and dealers
everywhere.

HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETICS.
Training Of Pupils of Both Sexes
Systematized. z

The need for physical training has
never been questioned TRANSACTIONS
of works of the early Ronsans reveal
that they believed in strong mind,
in healthy body. The same truth
is stated today in the current express
lslon, "All work and no play makes
Jack a dull boy" A further idea on
the same subject recommends that
play be systematized until it becomes
a part Of the daily processes of the
child.
In addition to systematization, the
modern idea is to train all of the pu-
pills, rather than to concentrate the
attention on,s and develop the
|physique of, the few; in other words,
Ito train the masses and let the So
called stars alone.
This is being favored ct the Dom
laldsonville High School. Supervised
play, whereby the entire grade takes
part, has taken the place of ordinary
play, where the mos proficient mem

The daily play period is divided in
to three periods: First period in the
morning at 80; second at 2 p. M,
and the third at AS p. m.
At the first period pupils of the first
three grades are Instructed as to
means and methods of play. Games
and roundels are introduced to these
pupils at a ten-minute period. The
five teachers engaged in the work at
this time have charge of their re-
spective pupils.
The second period lasts for twenty
minutes Grades four to seven, in
elusive, have their play period at this
time. Glasses are divided into
groups, and pupils are segregated ac-
cording to sex and size. Games which
appeal to children of their ages are
taught the different groups. Here
the main idea is to train the child to
reward the victorious in a conflict,
to take defeat graciously, and to
strive for success, whether in con-
fiict at play or at earnest work. True
craftsmanship is thereby developed.
Besides this, short calisthenics drill
to inculcate orderliness and prompt
ness forms part of the daily pro-
gram.
The work of the school day comes
to a close with the third play period
at 3:20 p. m. The high school pupils
have their twenty-minute play period
at this time. Each Of the sexes is
divided into two groups. The play
involves three elements: First, form
|al drill; second, traditional game
playing; third, competitive athletic
sports and team games.
Continued inclement weather has
greatly initiated against thorough
playground work Rains have pre-
vented outdoor play. To meet this
ondition, indoor play is divided into
the elementary and grammar grades.
This indoor play consists chiefly Of
quiet games and games of relaxation.
