SECOND SCHOOL INSPECTION
REVEALS NEED OF COUNTY
RELIEF FUND.

The County Nurse has started her
second year in Villas County by visit
ing schools and in that way checking
up on what has been done in the cor
rection of defects. The following is
her report;
The greater part Of Sept and part
of Oct. was spent looking up cases
which had been reported, as children
were being neglected and dependent
on the public. These reports came
from different parts of the county,
therefore it was necessary to make
Winchester, Manitowish and Minoc-
qua to get the information needed.
Sept. % two children from the Town
of Lincoln were taken to Sparta and
placed in the State School. Oct. 4th
three children from Vinegar were
taken to Sparta Oct II two girls were
taken to the State Home at Chippewa
Falls. One case came from Winches-
ter and the other from Eagle River.
Oct Is, the second inspection of
schools was started The following
schools were visited and inspected:
Winchester, Vinegar, Pressure Isle,
Spider Lake, The Baaken, Juve, and
the Sunsten. One day was spent in
one of the rural schools in the Town
of Phelps. Considerable improve
ments have been made by the school
children More children are making
an effort to brush their teeth daily.
The coffee drinkers are on the de-
crease and the milk drinkers on the
increase. The personal appearance
has improved in good many cases,
in one school Cat the first Inspection
about twenty children were excluded
from school on account of having head
lice, this fall only two children were
found to be afflicted and these two
came from the same family. Such i'm
provements show that people are tax
ing an interest in the work and are
willing to cooperate in every possible
way. 1t was surprising and pleasing
to note the number of corrections
which have been made, glasses have
been fitted, dental attention given to
the teeth, tonsils and adenoids have
been removed. It was also found that
these corrections were made by peo-
pie of fair circumstances, our poorer
class have taken no steps toward the
correction of defects. 1t is not because
they are not willing, they haven't the
means to have this work done.
Many counties have small hospitals
and dispensaries where these cases
can be taken care of, while Villas
County has none If we could start
a County Relief Fund with the aid of
the local Red Cross funds, a great
many corrections could be made. This
work would be carried on through an
investigation committee and the mon
ey given only as a loan to the people
who are worthy of it, this way great
deal of good can be done, and the
people would not have to feel that
they were accepting charity. We Of
ten make a mistake by offering too
much charity.
County Nurse Ann Christman has
and will attend School Meeting thru
out the county, talking to the people
in hopes of interesting every one in
this work Any help or suggestions on
your part will be greatly appreciated
by your County Nurse.

OIL DEAL CITED
AS VIOLATING
TRUST LAW
Trade Commission Brings
Complaint Against Jersey
and louisiana.

Because Of their acquisition Of
the Humble Oil and Refining Com
pany of Texas, the Standard Oil
Company of New Jersey and its
subsidiary, the Standard Oil Com
pany Of Louisiana, were cited today
by the Federal Trade Commission
for alleged violation Of the Clayton
antitrust act.
The complaint alleges that the
Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey owns and controls one-half
or more of the stock Of the Humble
company.
The commission further charged
that the acquisition by the Stand
ard company of the Humble COM
pany had the effect of substantially
lessening competition between the
Humble company and of the Stand
ard Of New Jersey and Standard
Of Louisiana and tended to create
in the Standard of New Jersey q
monopoly in the petroleum industry.

HATSFEATURE
STYLE SHOW
Both in Millinery and in Gowns
Trimming centers in
Front.
BY WILLIAM TAYLOR.
COsmOpOlitan News Service. g

NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The gar
den variety Of hat-broad-b rimmed
sun shades bedecked with feathers
or flowers-will adorn the majority
of feminine heads this spring and
summer, If the Retail Millinery AS
ISOLATION of Americas spring style
show is any index. Ninety per cent
of all hats shown today at the eX-
hibit were of the sun shade type.
Often they had no back, but the
sides and front were wide and drop
ping. Aigrettes and other feathers
at the back or sides appeared to
be the favorite trimming. Large
and vivid-hued flowers WED in pop
ularity with gaily decorated colored
ribbon for decoration.
Wide Variety Of COlors.
Although Milan straw was pre-
dominant as regards materials,
horse-hair braid and transparent
straws appeared effectively. Beau
tiful and most becoming models
were shown in cool greens, hello
trope, trope, canary, browns, burnt
orange, red and black. Tans and
greens seemed the best shades for
hats in general. Wells were rather
good, usually running to rather
Snowy" streamerS.
Dainty black lace "mits' were
worn with lace hats. giving an at
tractive but quaint effect.
There were no tight fitting tur-
bans, as is usual in the spring: Com
fort is essential this season, and
there were several collapsible hat
models, easily carried in, suitcases. :,
Sandalwood, titan. sulphur, orfole,
Egyptian blue, crushed berry and
mephieto red were a few of the
new shades.
Street Frocks SIkimpier.
Gowns worn with the bopnets
proved to be gorgeous sweeping
models, anything hut simple" as
designers have predicted. They were
long, billowing, heavily embroidered
gowns, sleeveless in almost every
instance. Street frocks were skimp-
ier in the skirt, very long wasted
and elaborate. There is a strong
tendency to pull all the lines to-
ward the front at a point little
below the natural waist line. Orna-
ments there clasp skirt and waist.
Capes were popular on suits and
dresses A great deal Of Venetian
lace flounced the gowns.
