Health Ward
Information furnished by Pine County
Nursing Service.

It is interesting to note that in the
immunization and vaccination work
which the doctors and Miss Virginia
Karlson did the past months, more
country school children are protected
against the diseases, diphtheria and
smallpox than the town children.
Sixty per cent of the rural children
have been immunized against diph-
iberia, as compared with 80 per cent
of the nine town school children.
Seventy-four per cent of the rural
children have been vaccinated, COM
pared to only So per cent of the
town school children. If we should
have another epidemic of smallpox,
or an epidemic of diphtheria, the town
school children would be very much
more susceptible than the country
children. 1t is hoped that the Hinck-
ley, Bruno and Sandstone schools
have the work done soon to raise the
total of town children protected.
Miss Karlson has been doing school
inspections as the weather has per-
mitted. The Cloverton and Rock
Creek children were inspected. 1t is
gratifying to note the improved health
conditions in most of the schools
visited. Many children have had the
needed dental care, most of the chill
dren who needed glasses have gotten
them. Teachers report greatly i'm
proved school work. Decayed teeth,
malnourishment, poor eyesight-these
things can cause much trouble in later
life.
At meeting of the central sub
committee, the following officers
were elected: Mrs. Lester Frye,
chairman; Mrs. Sacre, Mrs. Gregg,
vice chairmen; Mrs. c. Noyes, pro-
gram chairman; Mrs. West, secretary
and treasurer. Two obstetrical packs
were made. Meetings are planned
for every other month during the
coming year. Miss Karlson read her
report, which was discussed by the
ladies.

dealer pal6 her a dollar and hauled 1t away.
 It was four days after Wondro- soaps introduction to the pulp lie that the trouble began.
 Ted was in the newly arranged office, filling orders. The tele- phone rang. Kay answered.
 "It'S impossiblel" she spoke into the phone. "IIl send MT. Am drews over at once. Of course, we'll stand behind Wondrosoap. You can tell your customers thatl"
 She clammed the phone down on the hook.
 What is 1t, Kay?" Ted asked
 Druggist on Santa Fe street. Says a customer brought Wondro- soap back and demanded her money. She said she tried to clean a spot out of her husbands coat and 1t ate hole in the cloth"
 T don't believe it.'' Ted flared. Wait until see that woman"
 Kay frowned. wait a minute, Ted. We tried Wondrosoap on brass and or windows and china. Where's that handkerchief you used to clean the doorknob?"
 T don't know. In the laundry, I suppose"
 T think ycu dropped it in the plant; we were so excited that day"
 She hurried out to the ware house. In 8 minute she was back. Ted read the answer in her face before she held up his handker- chief, yell sprinkled with gaping holes.
 "she was right, Ted. What are we going to do?"
 The telephone really started ring ing then. From 10 a. m. until noon, Kay, then Ted, then Mary, took turns telling dealers that money would be refunded, that damages would be made good.
 The climax came when Nike Flynn drove np.
 "Come out here," he called, 'T want you to see my car."
 Kay gasped as she caught sight of the Flynn coupe. Each fender gleamed in shining metallic luster, without spot of paint to mar its sheen.
 T cleaned those lenders with Wondrosoap," Flyn said. TO day came out to get into the car. Every bit of paint is gone disappeared completely.
 why didn't you test that stuff before you put it on the market? You'll have a thousand lawsuits on your hands before the week is over unless you get the stuff back"

 She broke away from him be- fore he could kiss her again.
 "No more now" she said. This is business proposition. You're my partner, not my sweetheart. If we go falling tl love, it will spoil everything. You can't mix business and romance"

 He was gone then, walking slowly up the road to the bus stop, his broad shoulders lost at last in the shadows.
 Kay walked slowly into the office. Her lips still tingled from Ted's kiss. He had probably kissed hundreds of girls, and quickly forgotten them. Perhaps he would forget her, too.
 She wondered what he would think if she had told him that she, B years of age, had never been kissed before.
 Ted phoned early the next morning tlint he. was sending Mary Marshall, Q competent sec- retary, down for a interview. Mary should make an ideal com- panion for Kay, and she could help with the bookkeeping and office work. If Kay insisted on living out at the factory, Mary would have to stay with her.
 Mary was all that Ted had promised and more. Kay liked her immediately. No two girls could have been less alike, and that was the basis of their friend ship. Kay was quick tempered, either gay or in the depths. Mary was of Q more even disposition, quiet, retiring. And Ted had told the truth when he called her 8 competent secretary.
