Announce Patch Test Result

Ten out of 444 district stud
ents (2.2 per cent? who took the
tuberculosis patch test showed
positive reaction according to
statistics released by Supt. Clar-
ence Lee.
Positive reaction means that the
child has been in contact with or
exposed to tuberculosis but it does
not prove that tuberculosis is pre-
sent. An X-ray is recommended
in these cases.
Of those who took the tests =

Learning:
to Talk
By AnaeIo Potri

Little children who are learning
to talk are likely to anoy their
elders by chanting, singsong, the
words they have heard and liked.
They will repeat a syllable over
and over and laugh with delight
at the music they make. They
will sing a phrase again and
again until it rings in the ears of
the weary listeners. This practice
is necessary to perfect the speech
mechanism and give the child
control over 1t. Let him sing
away, the more the better.
Feed his hunger for words by
teaching him Mother Goose
rhymes. The House that Jack
built" Mother Hubbard" Cock
Robin" Simple Simon" are very
gooo for this purpose. The re-
petition pleases the child and the
rhythm helps him. They also
teach the child useful and good
words and help set a pleasant
rhythm in his prose. These early
years are the ones that offer us
opportunities for inaugurating
clear, pleasant rhythmic speech.
Tell the little ones stories and
don't be afraid of the fairy tales.
They belong to children. The
story Of the Ugly Duckling is
lovely and so is Cinderella. The
Fables are perfect for our pur-
pose. establishing feeling for
kindness, for good taste. for good
behavior, as we'll as a liking for
the best in language and litera-
ture.
Drilling children in this field
OF learning is not wise. Enunciate
the words clearly and with ap-
probation of their use and beauty.
Don't try to have a child repeat
them perfectly when he says them
with you, as he will by and by.
After he hears the words many
times, he will speak them cor
rectly. The odd word or two
that seems to trouble him can be
repeated clearly for him once or
maybe twice, but no more. We
do not want him to think that
speech Is difficult and learning
language distasteful.
Children will learn these simple
rhythms and stories and recite
them charmingly. Parents want to
show guests how nicely their
youngsters are coming along, SO
call on a young victim to "Tell
Aunt Minnie the story about Little
Boy Blue. Oh, 60 on. Shed love
to hear It," Please. dear. let me
hear you recite," responds Aunt
Minnie. But the child draws back.
Don't force him. Let him alone.
It he is allowed to go his way
without pressure, he is more like
ly to come back and shyly whis-
per to his mother that he'll tell
Aunt Minnie the story. That is
not too important. What is Of
chief Importance is that he learn
to talk clearly and rhythmically
and master a good vocabulary.

TRAILER BED?
SILVER CLEANING HINT.

From Mrs. E. L. F., Alexandria,
We have just recently bought a
trailer which has a double bed
across one end. The bed raises up to
permit storage in the closed space
underneath, thus being hinged or
the side against the wall. My
problem is that I haven't yet been
able to find way of making UP
tight bed. Will some one else who
has this type of trailer please send
along their ideas? Our model is
one of the aluminium trailers made
by the aircraft people in Oklahoma
Now a suggestion for those who
haven't yet discovered this trick:
The new detergent. the name OF
which begins with T and is four
letters long, is a wonderful silver
cleaner. I wash all my dishes in
this soap and for two and a half
months haven't had to clean my
silver in the conventional way at
all. In cases where tarnish is quite
heavy, simply letting the pieces
soak in warm water with plenty of
this soap will restore the bright
ness in 20 to 80 minutes.
