children who thus would be barred from
Western would be admitted to other
schools where the congestion is less
acute.
Tax Consideration Favored.
In discussing the situation yester-
day the board agreed that while 1t was
convinced all nonresident children
should pay tuition, it was of the opinion
that if their parents paid taxes in the
District that amount should be counted
toward the tuition charge. If the taxes
equaled or surpassed the amount of the
tuition, then no charges should be levied
against the child, the board believed.
DIR. Carusi made it plain at yester-
days meeting that the school board
itself was not proposing that changes
be made in the legislation governing
nonresident children, but in trans
hitting an opinion on the matter was
merely complying with request Of Mr..
Simmons.

FOR monde. PUPILS
Statement of District Board
of Education Forwarded
to Simmons.

The Board of Education is of the
opinion that nonresident children
should be admitted to the District pub
lie schools only on payment OF tuition,
and then only if there is adequate room
for them.
A statement to this effect will be
forwarded to Representative Robert G..
Simmons of Nebraska, chairman OF the
House Appropriations subcommittee,
who requested the board to provide him
with an expression of opinion on the
nonresident pupil situation in the local
schools Mr.. Simmons was told during
the recent hearings on the school eStl-
mates for 1882 that were it not for the
$50 nonresident pupils in Western
High School it would not be necessary
to place that institutions enrolment
on double shift schedule beginning
February /. He in turn asked DR..
Charles F. Carusi, school board presi-
dent, to secure the boards opinion on
che whole matter.
Legal Power Investigated.
Besides transmitting its views to Mr.
Simmons. the board agreed yesterday
to request the corporation counsel OF
the District for an opinion of the ex-
tent to which the school authorities
NAV go under existing legislation in
Curbing nonresident children's attend
ance in District schools. Mr.. Simmons
also had asked that this opinion be
sought.
At present children who live in Mary
iand and Virginia may enter Washing
ton schools merely by enrolling. No
tuition charges are exacted from their
parents if the parents work in the Dis
trict or If they are in the Government
service. The local authorities control
these nonresident children'S attend
ance only to the extent of transferring
them from one building to another.
AS a matter of fact in the case of the
Western High School the local authori-
ties ruled last month only that no new
nonresident children would be adj
united there, but agreed to permit the

Pasteur's Chickens.

Once in a while some writer or
speaker purporting to be an authority
or to be the voice of authority, does
condeScend to offer an explanation of
that elusive state called lowered re-
sistance." The young lady who holds
the position of health education direc-
tor with Western State tuberculosis
association recently got off some crisp
stuff for the papers of the State. She
was so emphatic about the way in
which exposure to wet feet and drafts
renders one more susceptible to infec-
ton that one newspaper man, an of
f1cer in his State editorial association,
asked her to enlighten him further
She explained that she used the terms
immunity" and resistance" inter-
changeably as they are often used in
the field OF bacteriology and biology.
But she added that the word immunity
refers to more resistance to a certain
disease. So we are left TO assume il
we wish that the young lady conceiyeS
the term resistance to refer to kind of
general immunity against many or all
diseases.
Then she finished off the newspaper
man by citing the experiment of Pas
teur and the hens. Parteur inoculated
hens with anthrax and found they did
not develop the disease But he soaked
a hen in cold water long enough to
bring the fowls temperature down to
that of mammals and then Pasteur
was able TO produce anthrax in the
hen.
This famous experiment of the great
scientist is often cited by those who
would have us believe exposure to cold
and wet lowers resistance or increases
susceptibility to colds" OF course it
proves nothing Of the kind and Pasteur
never remotely suggested any such
thing. There is no analogy between the
ordinary every day exposure of every
man, woman or child that lives and
this unnatural experiment.
No one seriously contends that
ordinary exposure to cold and wet low
ers the body temperature even frac-
ton of q degree. The old-timeTs who
cite PaSteur'S experiment in the at
tempt to fortify their own absurd posi-
ton are simply presuming upon the
childishnesS of their audience, for any
body who knows even the history of
Pasteur's life and work can see through
the little trick in an instant.

beat his long roll.
BY this time Chatterer had reached
that dead limb on which Yellow Wing
was drumming. He had quite lost his
temper. 'I1l teach you that other
people have some rightsl" he barked,
and made q rush at Yellow Wing.
Yellow Wing lodged around to the

such a rage. III show you! I'll show

best to catch yellow Wing, who kept
lodging around the limb. After a bit
Yellow Wing began to lose his temper
He had come to drum because the hap
piness within had to be expressed, and
this was his way Of doing it. The next
time Chatterer rushed he wished he
hadn't. "Ouch" he cried as Yellow
Wings long stout bill, his drumstick
so to speak, struck him.
Then things changed If was Chat

Chatterer was chased and then came
an exciting game of dodge around the
trunk of the tree Finally, Chatterer
ran out to the tip of branch, made
a flying leap to the next tree, which
was hemlock, and from its shelter
began to scold as only he can.

bright Mr. Sun begin his daily climb
up in the blue, blue sky.
So, having found drum Just within
the Green Forest, a dead limb well sea-
soned, which gave forth a clear, ring
ing sound that carried far when he
drummed on 1t, he went to bed early
in snug hollow in another tree. 1t
was the bed room he had used all the
year before; one he had cut out him
self. The next morning he was up
and out with the first light, before jolly,
round, bright Mr.. Sun had even peeped
over the edge Of the Great World. Most
of the sleepers of the night before were
still asleep. The first thing he
thought of was his new drum.

Yellow Wing. Breakfast can wait. I've
just got to let the Great World know
how feel this beautiful morning. I'll
just let few sleepy-heads know that
1t is time TO get up"
So he flew straight to his new drum,
settled himself comfortably and beat

You know, Of course, that 1t Is with his

That ought to waken some lazy

listened for a possible response. He
didn't wait long. From hollow in

Dandruff is our national shame be-
cause people ignore the truth about their
hair. Dandruff is scalp disorder. Soap
and water can't cure a sick scalp.
Forget surface treatments and get
down to the glands.
All hair is nourished by tiny glands,
deep in the scalp. When they don't open,
your hair starves, gets dry and brittle,
and in time falls out. What hair is left
loses color. But instead of touching
up" hair that's streaked or off-color, try
gland stimulation. Faded locks will come

couple color with kind to supply the
desirable Spring elements.
Some dishes that suggest Spring in
a picturesque way were given last
Tuesday. Two more may be added.
They suggest Springtime sports dear to
children, who delight to spin tops and
roll hoops.
Trundle Hoops. Cook unbroken
sticks of macaroni until they are tender
and flexible From the longest sticks
form as many trundle hoops as there
are persons to be served. The ends of
the hoops must be held together with
wooden toothpicks until the rings are
cold and set"
Hoops on Lawn.--Fill platter with
freshly cooked hot green string beans.
Edge the platter with hot macaroni
On top of the beans place the hoops
Just before serving cross each hoop
with a thin strip of cheese to supply
the sticks for the hoops. The effect is
of hoops thrown down on a lawn. For
each helping serve beans topped with
a hoop and stick. Serve the macaroni
in another mound and over it pour
hot tomato and cheese sauce.
Spinning Tops.-Tops can be made
from mashed potato. Use very small
funnel for a mold, and press into it
servings of potato. Press a silver of
carrot into each APPEND to supply the
spinning point, and rounded bit of
tie carrot into the center of the OPP
posite end for the button" top. Cut
uncooked young cabbage into thread
like shreds, to suggest the string needed
to make the tops spin. Put the tops
on the bed of string" Mix a little
finely chopped young onion. green sweet
pepper and capers into mayonnoise and
serve with this and you will have a
dainty potato salad.
For colorful dishes. these qualify. For
color alone for a dinner menu, serve
carrots, beets and peas or green beans.
Cut the beetS into roses. FreshJstraw-
berries make a gay Springtime dessert.
