ATTRACT NOTICE
Several Students of Blackfoot Schools
Rank High in Anti-Tuberculosis
Drawing Contest

The hundreds of splendid health
posters from all over the state pre-
sented quite a problem for the judges
who were selected to choose the
winners in the health poster contest
conducted by the Idaho Anti-Tuber-
culosis association. These posters
were on exhibit in windows of the
Mode store, Boise, for a week, and
drew much favorable comment. The
state parentteacher meeting at
Nampa also had an opportunity of
viewing many OF the posters, and
great surprise was expressed at the
work of the Idaho children in the
display of artistic ability, original
ity of design, and application of
health ideas. Many beautiful draw
ings and paintings were received
which did not conform strictly to the
poster qualifications Beside the
winners, those attracting much at
tention were a pen drawing by Kath-
ryn L. Healy of Roberts, splendid
crayOn work by the pupils of the
) deaf and blind school at Gooding,
and an unusual freehand cutting by
o,
Blackfoot. A freehand drawing of
1.-The Six Best Doctors" executed by
Miss Mabel Bennett of Blackfoot
high school, has, by urgent request,
become the property of DR.. Almond,
medical adviser of the state depart
ment of Public Welfare and will be
seen framed, on the wall of DR.. AL
mond's office at the state house. All
other posters are now the property
of the AntiTuberculosis association
and will be highly priced for exhibit
purposes. The association feels that
the Modern Health Crusade" has
been more than justified in the
schools of the state. The winners in
the poster contest are.
