Examiners Of Records.
We agree with the majority report
that examiners OF records should he

tw" classes: first. tho listing OF omit

report recommends that the examiner

first duty. but tuat the second duty
lie transferred to some other officer.
We can see no good reason for this
that the present law be amended
by the substitution of IL =

list property for taxation. II has
been shown to the committee that
the Analty of per cent pays about

fear of the high penalty and that

entire costs and salaries OF all cN-

THE COUNTY NURSE DEPT.

4
The first month of county nursing
is history. The following taken frcn
the monthly report will give an idea
OF what the county nurse has been
doing and the places visited during
the month. Twenty-Five school rooms
have had physical inspections The
total enrolment was 6S7, and out of
this number SGT children were inspect
ed. The others were absent on the
day of inspection. Five hundred and
fourteen of these children had one or
more defects. Some of these defects
are severe and others are slight
Twenty-one health talks were given
TO various grade children. Parents
attending school and watching the
nurse make the physical inspection
numbered ffty-two. Three absentees
were called upon, and thirteen home
calls were made pertaining to school
children. Attended one district teach
ers' institute, talked to aprents at an
| evening meeting, and inspected the
pupils in the school in the presence OF
/ school board, teachers, and parents
Inspecting the children in the pres
ence of so many people is not the
rule but was given by request for
/ demonstration purposes.
The list of defects as found are:
Defective teath 1923; abnormal ton
| sils 290; sore eyes s; defects of Wis
I ion 143; nasal obstruction 50; pro-
nounced enlargement of cervical
glands (glands in neck) AT.
The school inspection reveals cases
of itch, pediculosis (head lice) imoeti-
go Catching sores) and other skin
affection.
The schools which have had an in
! spection are: No. 3, Clinton-Dell
I school; No. /, Christiana-Unse
schoo; No. 9, Viroqua-Seas Branch
school,; No. 2 it., Stark-Lower Weis-
ter school; No. 3 it., Hillsboro-Vil-
lage of Hillsboro; No. it., Forest
Valley school; No. z, Union-Maple
Grove school,; No. 6, Union-Morning
Star school; No. 8, Forest-Eastman
school,; No. a, Forset-Salem school;
No. z, aforementioned May school
This makes total of eleven schools,
or twenty-five school rooms. Health
charts, and the height and weight
charts are to be used in every, school
room. Parents, teachers, and school
boards are urged to help the children
put this part of the school health
program across"
| The rules of the health chart are:
Personal cleanliness. Clean
hands, face, neck and ears. One point
If in addition to this the children sit
ERECT in their seats, and stand up
straight, they receive gold star.
2 Drink two glasses of milk day.
No tea or coffee. One point. Chill
dren who ABSOLUTELY cannot drink
milk will receive one point on the
health chart, providing the ydo not
drink tea or coffee.
8 One weekly bath. Five points.
4 Brush teeth twice a day. One
point.
Sleep with windows open. One
point.
Have you a nice wash corner in
your school? Many children come to
school early in the morning, return
home late in the afternoon, and during
the whole day, they are not able to
wash their hands, because there is
not single facility provided for that
purpose in the school. So for that
reason the teachers are requested to
ask the school boards to provide ma
/ terials for a attractive wash corner.

BILL WANTS A HORSE
He Is Saving Pennies With Which
to Buy One Some Day.

BY EDGAR TAYLOR WHEELocK.
Copyright 1921, American Press Leagus)
Bill Flanagan was about three
years old when he announced de-
Termination to save his income and
buy a horse. To the end that he
might carry out this plan a small iron
bank was provided and his accumu-
lated pennies, nickels and dimes were
stored therein.
Bill has now attained the mature
age of -four, going on five" and he
has a savings account In regular
bank.
He Usually Gets What He Wants.
Knowing Bill intimately and know
ing the stock from which he springs
it is safe to predict that, although the
horse which is now the goal of his
ambition may never be his, the fund
being created for the purchase of that
animal will in time grow into sub
stantial sum and serve useful pur-
pose.
Nearly every child in this land de-
yelops at an early age an acquisitive-
ness which, if encouraged and rightly
directed, becomes a wholesome habit
and leads to frugality and financial
security.
The little iron banks cherished by
the hundreds of thousands of Bills
should lead to accounts in savings
banks where the modest deposits of
the children will increase through In
terest earnings.
Form Habits of Thrift.
But more valuable than the inter
est earned will be the saving habit
acquired early in life. A generation
Of frugal, industrious American Bills,
all with knowledge of the value OF
money and its proper uses, knowl-
edge acquired through sacrifices in the
interests Of cherished ambition, will
grow up into generation of level
headed. property owning and home
owning American men to whom radi-
cal agitators will appeal in vain.
the spenders look upon money as
something that must be passed along
quickly--not intelligently or for a val
liable consideration. but just spent to
prevent it from burning holes in their
pockets.
Savers Are Substantial Citizens.
The frugal class usually find ways
of procuring the things they need
with very little trouble because they
are substantial citizens with bust,
ness credit that is equivalent to ready
casl

There Is not the local prejudice to dark
honey which exists in the clover re-
gion and i'm the West. All these fac
tors taken together make the region
one of promise. The enormous num-
ber of colonies of bees in this region
is pointed to as proof of the great
nectar resources, and If these colonies
are given proper care vast quantities
of honey can be produced

more men engaged In beekeeping on
