Libby Quintet
Stops Flathead

A ball-hawking Terrier team set
a hard pace in a game with the
Flathead Reserves Friday night and
overcame the visiting team with
a BOLT score.
The Libby squad gained control
in the first minutes and never eased
up. The score, while was always in
favor of the Terriers, was never
seriously threatened, in spite of the
fierce attempts of the alert Re-
serves. This marked the 9th victory
for the Terriers this year.
Rounds and hampton officiated.

Tamarack Tattler

Laurel wreaths to Mr.. Rounds!
Last Friday, when all was still (?)
in the high school corridors Mr..
Rounds heard the sound of desper-
ate voices and energetic bangs,
sounding and resounding from Miss
Eldredge's room, wherein were i'm
prisoned a goodly portion of the
Tamarack staff. Rushing to in
,vestigate, Mr.. Rounds found that
one of the staff had pulled off the
doorknob, and the door could not
be opened from the inside. Our
hero, by physical effort, opened the
door to free the frantic staff. The
society of Benevolent Bounties for
Brave Boys is considering giving
him a medal.

HEALTH HELPS FOR
YOUNG MARYLANDERS
Complete Examination Is
Given and Follow Up
Care Provided

Over 10000 young Marylanders
were given a complete health ex-
animation and their mothers, or
others in charge, were advised as
to fOllOw-up care at the health
conferences held in the counties
in 1889 under the auspices of the
Bureau of Child Hygiene of the
State Health Department and the
County Health Departments.
Nearly 5000 Of the children were
aiken to the conferences for re-
turn checking up. To 1875 Of the
youngsters, S,257 white and 5.47S
cOlOred, it was a new experience.
The children ranged in age from
very young babies to their older
brothers and sisters who will soon
go to school, Nearly $500 were
under year old; over 5000 were
from one to four; and 1928 from
five to six years old.
In issuing the report, Dr.. r. H.
Riley, Director of the State De-
partment Of Health, explained
that the purpose Of the conference
is to prevent sickness and to adj
wise the mothers how they NAV
help to keep the children in good
health. An effort is made to point
out conditions that would develop
into serious handicaps if allowed
to to run on. Older children who
are attending school have similar
health supervision, DR.. Riley said.

needed dental care. Tonsils and
unfaWorable conditions of the
throat came in for special consid-
Grafton for $500 of the white chill
dren and 1000 of the cOlored. Spec-
lal advice as to food habits and
food combinations was given for
about 1900 children - 700 white
and 500 colored who were un-
derWeight or showed other signs
OF bad nutrition.
Protection against diphtheria
had been neglected for 1000 of the
children and over 1890 had not
been vaccinated against SMALLPOX.
The Importance Of having the chill
dren safeguarded against these
diseases was explained to the
mothers and clinics were arranged
IN many places 50 that they could
be attended to. In connection
with the various follow-up actiyi-
ties resulting from the health con-
ferences, over $4,000 home visits
were made by the nurses from the
county health departments.
One or more child health confer
ences, each month, is planned for
each of the County Health Depart
ments, for the current year. DR..
Riley said. During the summer
months they will be supplanted by

MANY HUNTERS BUT
FEW SQUIRRELS
FOUND MONDAY

The squirrel season opened on
Monday, with many hunters in
the woods by dawn and the great
majority of them returned empty
handed, because the squirrels
were not there. After the first
day, hunting practically ceased
because there are not enough
squirrels to make the hunt excit
ing.
Mast of all kinds is said to be
the ightest ever known, and, as
experienced hunters know, when
mast fails squirrels have nothing
to feed on and migrate to more
promising territory.
Mast was light last year and
the succeeding winter unusually
severe and many think that near
ly all squirrels persisted during
the winter of cold and lack of
food. ~
