 Dental Hsgienists to Go.
 II was voted to dispense with the services of three dental hygienists at the close of the present school year and engage n woman physician next year. The board asked the finance board for si4.20o for health work, and this figure was cut to sii,o0o, allowing one additional nurse as re- aliested, but not tho doctor. Dental ork Is not required by the state, but regular health education work is ii requirement. Tho finance com. pittep decided therefore to do away with the dental work and hire a fc- male physician al price not 10 eN- ceed s2,90O, including transportation, etc. This will cut the total cost Of the health work S200.
