On some commodities, the prices
have gone back to the pre-war stand
ards There are more sheets in the
scent tablets, and more quality in
other supplies at the same price, than
1t is agreed.
Rush to End Soon.
The rush in the business of supply
ing the needs of school children will
all be over in short time. The sup
ply business, handling accessories, will
continue turnout the school year, after
the first tablets and notebooks have
been purchased.
Not only the book and stationery
stores ore handling these supplies, but
the variety. department, the Decent
stores and the racket stores are also
heavily stocked with them. In the
basement of one of the Topeka 1o-cenr
stores there are stacked no less than
2S,S00 tablets of one certain type,
which will be on display early next
week.
Anew phase, of the trade for school
children, reflects the difference be-
tween the school boy and school girl
of today and those of less than a
generation ago.
Many New Tangled Pencils.
Nearly every high school boy and
every high school girl. as well as a
goodly number of those still in the
grades, now carries a fountain pen
and one of the new tangled automatic,
patented, metal pencils, and all deal
ers are making a big bid for the trade
in those Items this season.
As consequence there has been a
reduction in the humber of plain, old
fashioned steel pens and wooden pen
ellis, which are being sold This is
not true as applied to the lower
grades, where the teachers specify the
quality and nature Of the supplies
which are to be used.
There will be at least thirty extra
clerks in the book stores of Topeka
next week. to cater to their ma jesties,
Johnny and Mabel.

Training Normal here is one of the
busiest athletic directors in the state.

the Normal mentor is hard at work
lining up his prospective talent to re-
place the standbys of 1921 who have
left school.
'Doc" Weede's job is no trivial one.
The Normal football machine was
wrecked by the departure of sixteen OF
last seasons letter men. Consequently

Minor Defects DeVIop Into Some
Serious AiIment.
HOGS KEPT TOO NEAR HOUSE
Farmers Wives Are Too Busy
With Household Work.
Red Cross Makes Effort to Over
come Situation.

Fight on the heels Of a federal sta
tisticaI report showing Kansas to have
the longevity record of tht United
States, comes an official report from
the southwestern division headquar-
ters of the Red Cross, to the effect
that childhood health on Kansas
farms should be greatly improved.
The surprising thing about the Red
Cross survey, it is pointed out, is that
serious physical ailments was found
to be considerably greater among
S9hocl children in the country than
IN the towns ana cities; this despite
the generally accepted theory that the
farm, with its pure air, freedom from
contamination, nutritious food and
milk, is a healthier place than the
city.
Farms Not Health Resorts.
''Serveys recently conducted have
proved that the Kansas farm is not
a health resort" says the Red Cross
report. Here are some of the reasons
disclosed by the survey, for this con-
clusion:
The farm is considered a health re-
sort and the doctor is called in only
when there is serious illness.
So-called minor defects go unat-
tended UNTIL they develop into serious
ailments, ana often are neglected al
LOR6Lner.
Too little attention is paid by the
average farmer to the surroundings
of his home, the disposition of gar
bage, the proper location of the well
and other similar matters.
Hogs Too Near House.
Often the farmer keeps his hogs
and cattle too near the house.
Bathtubs are not plentiful enough.
In many houses it is necessary for
the farmers wife to carry water from
an outside well for bathing as we'll as
drinking and other purposes.
Farmers wives are so busy with
their many household duties their care
of the children is thus handicapped.
The babies get loving care, but not
scientific care, and the older children
grow up without very little care OF any
kind.
! "The Red Cross is endeavoring to
overcome this situation by holding
mothers meetings and baby shows as
well as baby clinics in the various rural
communities thruout Kansas, and in
s1nany of the other states of the union,
land TO interest the country mother In
