SAP AND SALT
by Bert Moses

The CRATER knows of more
than one way to get your money.
It's amazing what a small stock
of brains is needed when you are
good looking.
Honesty consists of just two
observation-disclosures and con-
science.
Just in proportion as you pity
a man does your respect for him
decline.
Give some men q dollar, and
they will at once turn the occa-
sion into license to touch
YOU for ten more.
The enjoyment of poor health is
not complete without the assist
ance of a doctor.
Hez Heck says: Whether it be
thieves or fish, the big ones gifts

a great danger, not only to themselves
but to others for them to go among
other people, especially in school.
Many parents, who would otherwise
not think of injuring someone's child,
allow sick children to go to school
and thus often endanger the health
and even the lives of those with whom
the sick mingle.
It is especially important that par
ents should give attention to matters
of this kind for the benefit of the
whole community. Often, teachers are
as much to blame as parents by al
lowing known sick children to remain
in school.
Public health activity has about
reached the limit of what can be done
for the people of community. Flu
ture progress in disease prevention
depends very largely upon the degree
of cooperation that the public in gen.
eral will give to health officials.
By keeping sick children home from
school and from other places of as

KEEP SICK CHILDREN HOME
This Command Is For Parents and
Teachers Especially.

Most acute diseases are communi-
cable from patient to well persons.
This is especially true of the respira-
tory diseases which we know as colds,
coryza, laryngitis, bronchitis, etc. Es-
pecially in their early stages, these
are easily spread by contact.
Then there are the more serious
diseases, such as diphtheria, scarlet
fever, measles and whooping cough
which are often so mild that the vic
tim does not go to bed; and thus he
may become a source of great danger
to others by going about.
All children suffering with even
mild attacks of the above, by all
means, should be kept at home. 1t is
