Checkup Urged Fo1
School Kids

A physical checkup should be a
must" when preparing children for
the coming school year, the State
Board of Health said today.
Now is the time for children to
make trip to their physicians and
dentists so that any trouble with
eyes, ears, nose, throat, teeth, etc.
can be corrected before school opens.
1t is particularly important for
children entering school for the first
time to have their immuniZatiOns
against smallpox, diphtheria, teta-
nus and whooping cough.
Postponement of trip to the Doc
tor or dentist may result in pain and
discomfort for the child in addition
to loss of time from school. Parents
should remember that a healthy
child makes a better student.
Birth records should be secured
from the State Board of Health for
children who will enter school for
the first time this year, as many
schools require them.

tanning. And classifying pictures is
excellent training.
Stories and Books
Another helpful thing to do is
finding pictures that tell a story.
Perhaps some interesting picture
may inspire your youngster to die
tate a story to you, so that you can
read it later to some of his play
mates. Sometimes a sequence of
pictures may be found, and ar
ranged in order. A scrapbook can be
made of colorful story pictures. He
can dictate short sentences for you
to put under the pictures.
OF course, nothing can take the
place of the child's own library.
Plenty of beautiful books become
his friends. The bedtime story hour
/ is looked forward to by both child
and adult. Very little children can
be taught to handle books gently,
turn the pages carefully by the ur-
per righthanded corner, and put the
books away when done with so that
they will not be damaged. Every
child should have a bookcase of his
own, however small or make-shift.
A supply of nature books should
be part of every family equipment. A
busy bird. chipmunk, beautiful,
shiny beetle many creatures can
be identified by a little child just by
looking at the pictures. Older child
rem learn to find bits of interesting
information until all nature becomes
a continual source of joy and won

In dull moments and on rainy
days, games may be played that will
help build readiness. One game that
is fun consists in looking out the
window and naming what is seen,
moving from left to right. This
helps to establish the left-to-right
eye movement needed in reading.
Then have him turn away from the
window and see how much he can
remember. OF course, the adult
plays too, and different windows
may be used. Certain types of OBJ
jects may be named.
This game may be varied in many
ways. A tray of small objects may
be shown. He names them quickly
always from left to right. The tray
is Immediately removed, and he
names them from memory. Some
times a child will do better than a
grown-up at this.
Good Practice Too
Children love the game of oppo-
sites. A tray of objects is brought
to blindfolded child, and he CLASH
fies them as hard or soft, putting
the hard things at the other side. Or
the classification may be into
smooth and rough, or fine and
coarse groups.
There is no end to the games you
will invent once you get started
Playing opposites without objects is
also fun. One player may say
sleepy" and the next player will
say wide awake" Then the latter
has turn to give a word, such as
fast" The player on his right will
say "slow." If he cannot think of
an opposite, he loses his turn to
give a word. This may be played in
teams the first one on a team giving
word to the corresponding player
on the other team. One who cannot
give an opposite must drop out of
the game.
Cutting out pictures is a never
ending source of pleasure to a child.
They may be cut out with def
mite purpose, such as finding things
that go and things that don't go.
For example: cars, trains, buses go;
houses, stores, trees do not go.
Finding things that grow, and those
that do not grow is another varia-
ton, and again, finding different
shades of the same color is enter

can delay the appearance Of
wrinkles and minimize those you
already have.
I do not believe in massage for
the face. It is too apt to stretch
the skin and hasten the thinning
of the underlying fatty layer. It
is much better to pat your cream
on lightly. This, plus scientific
facial exercises, will tone muscles
and provide mild stimulation. You
CAN massage gently ALONG the
lines of crows feet or along the
furrow between the brows. When
you do this, apply cream first
and use a rotary motion with your
forefinger. This smooths the lines
out. Always pat gently under the
eyes when applying eye cream.
! I think you should be careful
about removing cream from the
face day after day. If you rub
hard when taking it off, this is
bad for a youthful contour. Re-
move gently and carefully, trying
to avoid any stretching OF the cpl
dermis.
