FREE MEDICAL CERTIFICATES.

The law demands that when boys and girls under
IS years of leave school to work. they must be
given physical examination by which it be de-
termined whether conditions of the job they
dertake such as will undermine their health.
1t may be taken certain that the compelling
reason for the large percentage leaving school be-
fore graduation is the necessity contributing to
their support
1t is pointed OUT by Mrs. Cox to the League OF
Women Voters that South Bend is of the few
larger cities of the state which make no provision
for furnishing this compulsory examination.

WINDING THE CLOCK.

When l was but a little Lad, my old
Grandfather said
That none should wind the clock but
he and so, at time for bed.
He'd tumble for the curious key kept
high upon the shelf
And set aside that little task entirely
for himself.
In time Grandfather passed away,
and so that duty fell
Unto my Father who performed the
weekly custom WELL
He held that clocks, were not to be
by careless persons wound
And he alone should turn the key or
move the hands around.
