Good telephone service is dependent
on the good health of the companies
employees. In the interest of eliminat-
ing so far as possible the common cold
which may result in something more
serious, DR.. Leverett D. Bristol, health
director Of the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company, urges tele-
phone employees to build up body re-
sistance against colds through the de-
velopment of proper health habits.
These include sufficient outdoor
fresh air, sunshine and exercise, keep
ing the body warmly clothed and the
feet dry, being careful not to become
over-fatigued, obtaining the right kind
and amount of food. including milk,
eggs, butter, green vegetables and
fresh fruits, and going to doctor for
periodic examinations and profession

called cold-prone individuals.
If cold is developed, Dr.. Bristol
urges that the employee not become

change may be started through per-
sonal habits. So far as possible he
urged protecting others from a cough
and sneeze, using only personal toilet
articles, towels and drinking utensils
and washing the hands frequently.
Prolonged or deep-seated colds should
always have the attention of . physi-
clan, particularly in the interest of
preventing serious complications and

School Sewer System

Saturday, January 80, saw the
completion of the project that link
ed the High and Elementary schools
to the town sewer system; a project
that was the climax of months of
digging and laying pipe throughout
Rising Sun to give its inhabitants
proper disposal of sewage.
AS it is a plan of those connected
directly and indirectly with the
school to build it up into the best
possible institution for a child's in
struction and we'll being, the connect
ing of the school to the sewer system
was a very important, nearly neces-
sary, project.
Members of the Board of Educa-
ton, the P. w. A., and the Town
realizing the value
of such an improvement, carried the
expense. Relief funds supplied the
labor problem; the Board Of Educa-
ton and Town Commissioners, other
costs.
The former plant for disposal of
sewage was sold; in its place, the
school got a modern, sanitary sys-
tenn. 1t was worthy project, both
the school and the community profit

Sophomore Posters

Last week the Sophomore girls OF
the Home Economics class in Rising
Sun High School made very interest
ing food posters.
The charts were made for the pur-
pose of teaching the girls some basic
principles in art work and one main
idea in nutrition work.
The titles of the charts were excep-
tionally good. Some of them were
"School Lunch Window, The Food
Story, Food For Growing Child"
and "The Story of Proteins." I'M
der the title "School Lunch Wisdom"
the clever idea of this person was to
CONT. ON GAL. s.
put (No) on one side Of the chart
picturing the foods not very suitable
to growing childs lunch and (Yes)
on the other side picturing foods
suitable for a growing child with >
puzzled little girl in the middle.
Another was "The Food Story"
with little skinney boy on one side
with the food he eats and one the
other side a little healthy boy with
the food he eats. Still another title
was "Well Balanced Meals" and the
idea of this person was TO have the
nice green vegetables balancing the
incomplete diet.
After all, this is an insistence to-
ward an aim in Home Economics.

Rising Sun High School News
BY THE JOURNALISM CLUB

In order to graduate from high
school, the law requires student to
have acquired sixteen units Of work
during the four years which he at
tends. OF course to do this the pupil
has to do a reasonable amount Of
homework outside of class. The
freshmen do not have as much work
to do outside of class as the Soph-
more or the upper classmen.
There has been serious problem
in our school Of some pupils failing
to prepare their daily assignments,
either at school during the study
period provided, or at home after
school hours, and by not preparing
their assignments their promotion Is
in danger. AS a general rule those
pupils who are not busy in school and
do failing work are also guilty Of dis
turbing others.
Mr.. Zimmerman has devised a
system, that went into effect last
Tuesday, which he hopes will solve
this problem. Every evening there
will be a special study hall held in
room 8 with a teacher in charge,
from $3.50 to 4:3O. This extra study
period has been created to help the
pupils, and not punish them. Some
of the pupils do not have as much
ability as others, and need help. The
teachers in charge will, to the best Of
their ability, try to help the pupils
with their work, and help them over
come their difficulties.
Miss Tomlinson will be in charge
on Mondays, Mr.. Pettyman on Tues
days, Miss Nutter on Wednesdays,
Miss Hite on Thursdays, and Mr..
Hovermill on Fridays.
All of the teachers may assign pu-
pills, in their classes or home rooms,
who are wasting their time and not
using it to good advantage, to this
special study hall. Bus pupils may
be assigned to a full hour noon study
period.
Pupils, who have certain difficult
ties with their work, may come to
this special study hall, of their own
accord, and leave when they finish.
This study period is by no means a
place of punishment, but a place d.
directed study for the benefit Of the
pupils We hope to decrease the
number of failures in our school and
if this special study hall, from 1890
4:3O succeeds, I'm sure that when
commencement comes around Their"
will be larger number Of graduates
on the stage than If something were
not done about pupils Who waste
their time in school and are constant
ly getting into difficulty with the
teachers.

Cafeteria"

The cafeteria has become definite
part of our school. 1t aids the teach
ers as we'll as the pupils. Besides
furnishing lunch for the pupils and
teachers who prefer buying their
lunch to carrying it, it solves the
problem Of pupils going up town at
noon. There has always been lot
Of confusion about the rules permit
ting children to go up town. The
cafeteria has been so successful that
this problem is becoming less.
Pearl Ewing is head Of the Cafe
terra department and in charge Of all
the money. She posts lists of the
girls who work and sees that every
thing goes right.
Last year the cafeteria added $50
to our school budget. This year I'M
der the management Of Pearl and
Mrs. Mackey we believe that this
amount will be increased.
The food provided is very nourish'
ing although very cheap. Platters
soups, sandwiches, salads and mill
are sold for less than half the price
which would be paid anywhere else
The menu is changed every day offer
ing variety for the pupils.

SPECIAL WINTER BLEND
MY GREATEST TREASURE
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore, Maryland
More than any other treasure,
Is the Christ who died for me.
How can we help but love Him,
When we remember calvary.
When the sun is shining brightly,
And no storm clouds in the sky,
The song birds singing sweetly,
Christ my all in all is nigh.
When the coluds are dark and heavy,
On life's rough and stormy sea,
More than any other treasure,
Christ is all and all to me.
More than any other treasure;
How sweet His blessed name.
The Christ who never, never changes;
Always; always just the same.
When the toiling time is over,
/ And we reach that happy place
In the home of many mansions,
We shall see Him face to face.

 explained that when Germans .ame 70 this country and took out citiz enship papers, they were no longer German citizens but were Americans. As such they could not be committing their services to Hitler. Won Neurath replied that of course Secretary Hull was exactly right.
 For Two days after the recent Goering outburst, we waited for the state department to give a reply similar to the one given Neurath; and when none came, 1t seemed wise to learn why. Unofficial Spokesman
 An experienced gentleman in the state department who had spent many years of his diploma tic life in and around Germany, said this:
 Tn the first place, Goering, un- like Von Neurath. is not the of ficial spokesman for the Reich on foreign affairs. He is Hitler's Secretary Ickes. His business, while more inclusive than Ickes , is largely interior. So there was no reason for Secretary Hull to pay any attention to him.
 Besides, said the experienced gentleman, Goering's words, and perhaps those of Von Neurath as well. were intended mainly for Germans in those countries right next door to the Reich. Each was a sort of fireside speech for the benefit of Germans in Poland, Al sace-Lorraine, Austria, Czecho- slovakia, the city of Danzig, and nearby points.
 So, said our experienced diplo- mat, when the United States bus ties in with objections to these siren words, German officials are honestly surprised. Somewhat as if mama had called to come to supper and found the children from the orphanage trooping in.

CHAPTER vi

Franks first day at Fardale acad-
envy had been one to remember.
Unexpected things had happened,
but nothing had surprised him half
as much as the sudden and puzzling
switch-around by INA Burrage. 1t
was ridiculous for her to imagine he
could be chummy with Bart Hodge.
She must think him silly sap!
There was something back of it,
of course. And of course he had
guessed the answer: Hodge had
made a touchdown with her. He
had scored in spite of his bad FUN
bles. Now wasn't that just like a
girl!
Frank was bitterly disappointed
in Inza. He had put her right back
into the beautiful and dumb lineup.
Well, it was okay with him. He
had said he wouldn't need an OPT
ate to sleep that night, and he didn't.
