It is also specified in the bill that upon petition of the parents of eight deaf .or eight blind children. or 15 crippled children, special classes must be provided,
 The Commission reports that Pub lie school care for the deaf, blind, and mentally subnormal has been demonstrated to be very feasible and much less expensive than inStitu- uona1 state eare.'

As April approaches

As April approaches one must take thought of housekeeping and certain necessary refur- nishings. It is a matter of pride that ones home should look well in the eyes of visitors. It is a pleasure to have rugs, draperies and furnish ings the subject of .fa- vorable comment by wis itipg friends. Spending much time and attention on combining the fur ishings of a room always brings a satisfactory feeling.
 The average man, woman or small boy can put the right name on every motor car that passes the house. But how about styles of rugs, tables, chairs or tapestries that one lives with all the while?

BEAUTY CHATS
REDUCTION SUGGESTIONS.
By. EDNA KENT FORBES.

Reduction has long since ceased to be a matter of hap-hazard guess work. It has become a matter of science and a great many doctors have made large fortunes out of 1t.
 There is also a great deal of non sense that is written and spoken on the subject of dieting and there is a great deal of nonsense that is prac- tced as a means of reduction. Any woman who will take the time and trouble to read up a little bit on this subject can soon distinguish the good advice from the bad. For after all the best rule to go by is the rule of common sense.
 There is one excellent rule to re- member and that is eat the right foods in the right quantities. If you have a tendency towards fleshiness don't eat so many fat and starchy- dishes, nor so many sweets, until you have reduced to your normal weight. The rule, of course, works both ways: That is, if you are thin, eat more fats and Starches, but use your common Senso fin either case. For you must take in some fat even with thinning foods and if you are thin you cannot eat too much with out getting indigestion. But it is quite possible to eat just the right foods in the right quantities and to acquire the right weight, and the process of so doing is not very com plicated.
 If you are too fat don't sleep too much and don't indulge in occa- sional maps. Don't over-eat and don't drink with your <leals. Above all don't ride whes you can possibly walk Every fat person should ex- ercise and few fat people want to- The easiest method of exercising is to walk, that is why I advise walk ing whenever possible for any per son who is overweight.
 TPrTXT--A j-1 nf o1I feet tall, should weigh 113 pounds. You are overweight, you are prob ably over-eating, and if you reduce, the pimples you complain of will dis appear.
 Helen H.:-Eating oranges is splendid for the complexion, because oranges contain beneficial acids, and clear the system.
 J. K-:-If your rings turn your fin gers green, my first guess would be that they are not solid gold. Pos Sibiy they are what is known as gold filled, and have worn down to the metal inside the filling. Of course. it is just possible that your system possesses a great deal of acid so that your skin is affected by metal. I have heard of such cases occasion ally before.
 Ruth B.:-I would not advise you to use liquid face powder, because this is very drying to the complexion. If you keep your skin in healthy condition you can use plain rice pow der on it which is perfectly harm less.
 Blue Eyes:-From time to time ar dcles on curing pimples appear in 1 his space. If you have not seen any recently, send me a letter with a self | addressed stamped envelope enclosed | Sor directions on taking care of the | skin.
