Weighing School Children.

living taught several years in the
public schools and having weighed little
children every month in the past ses-
sion, endeavoring to help them grow
up better physically, the following has
been my observation:
Many of the farmers boys and girls
are underfed. They have plenty to eat
all right, but the food is nor Of the
right sort. They are suffering from
malnutrition. If many farmers could
only be made to realize that it Is not
economy, especially where health is
concerned, to sell the eggs, cream, milk
and butter, how good j. would be
for the children. Surely il would be
cheaper and better for them to pro-
vide their wives with money other
wise.
have noticed in nearly every in
stance the normal or overweight chill
dren had plenty of butter, milk and
eggs while those underweight had not.
Again | have observed thar many
children neglect their teeth. A great
many do not battle as often as they
should, and what is more appalling, so
little encouragement is given at home.
Why is this ? Is it not because the mo-
Their who has so little outside help or
none at all, and no conveniences, and
is so worn out with the family sewing
and mending and the daily cleaning
and cooking, for not only the family
but very often for the hired men as
we'll, lacks the strength and courage to
do more?
Many Of the children sleep in closed
rooms at night and during the day have
work to do that is really beyond their
strength.
When farmers and their wives awake
to their children's needs, then will
the growing girls and boys attain their
greatest physical perfection. And af
ter all, is it not their birthright?

How Panama Hats Are Made.

virtually every inhabitsut OF San
PABLO, Colombia, is from childhood an
expert weaver of hats. We were told
mat in all the history Of the town,
says Mr.. Harry A. Frsnck in the Wide
world Magazine, only one boy had been
too stupid TO learn TO weave.
The government telegraph operator
OF San Pablo had record Of six hats
a week the year round. That was
probably at least double the average
output, for very few worked with such
marked industry. The overwhelming
majority are amateur weavers The

SONS out in the form Of fan shaped
fern. Once it has reached this stage
however, it is no longer useful to the
weaver of hats. For his purpose the
leaves must be gathered while still in

have expanded later into leaves are
spread out and cut into narrow
strips with comb-shaped knife. The
finer the cutting, the more expensive
the hat. Between the material of a
two-dollar and ffty-dollar panama
there is no difference whatever, ex-
cept in the width of the strips. Boiled
and laid out in the sun and wind, these
curl tightly together. They are then
bleached white in the form of tufts
not unlike broom straw or bunch OF
prairie grass.
The weaving of the panama begins

DEATH OF
WILLIAM
HIGGINS
Was Life Long Resident of
St. JOhnsbury and Held
Town Offices

William Higgins died at his home
at the head of Concord avenue Sun
day evening after an illness of about
six weeks.
Nj. Higgins was born in St.
Johnsbury, May 28 1885. OF. the
farm bought by his father, John
Higgins, in 1890. He lived on the
farm all his life and became one of
the towns best known and substan-
tial farmers. He married in 1861
Julia c. Blinn, who died in 1913. He
is survived by three children, Charles
II. Higgins of Arlington, Mass, AL
bert J. Higgins and Miss Ellie b.
Higgins Of St. Johnsbury, four
grandchildren and three great grand
children. The funeral will be held at
the house Wednesday afternoon at
two o'clock.
Mr.. Higgins identified himself with
the life of this community and serv-
ed for IA years on the board of select
men. For ten years he was the first
selcctman and for several years he
was the road commissioner. He was
for many years an officer and con-
siStent supporter Of the Caledonia
Fair Ground Company He had a
wide experience in administering es-
tates, some of the most complicated
in this vicinity being settled by him.
These estates were always managed
SO that all the Interested parties APP
peared to be satisfied. With plain
New England common sense he had
an unusual power of clear judgment
and understanding of law and equity,
while his grasp of fundamental
truths was equalled by his ability to
state them clearly.
He was a successful farmer and
fnancier, up to date in methods and
equipment, with a philosophy that
made him accept whatever life
brought without complaint A man
Of few words, he inspired trust, and
lived his later and less active years,
with broad outlook on world mat
ters; keen interest in community
affairs, and an unclitical attitude for
individuals. Serene, patient through
many years of suffering and i'll
health, with a sense of justice and
integrity, not too common in these
days, his years were rounded out with
no failures of mental powers or in
tercst in all worth while subjects

in the opinion of the City Council and
the representatives OF the state, WORK
could be begun on the building as
early as anticipated,
The state specifications and the
specifications of the City for its re-
quirements for city offices, were pre-
sented and gone over carefully. Ten
tative plans were decided upon TO.
accommodating both Company L and
tire City Department.
Every person attending the meet
ing was very enthusiastic regarding
the prospects for an aImory for the
city and it is the opinion Of these men
that the construction OF the building
could be done by-a-local contractor
better than By bringing in an outside
builder.
The name of Contractor Smith was
mentioned and it was believed ad-
visable to give him full charge of the
building of the almory. 1t was the
opinion Of all that more confidence
would be placed in Smiths ability
and integrity than an outside man.
There is absolutely no question bug
that the proposition will be put
through as planned. 1
