I "A little child shall lead them" Is particularly true and applicable today in health matters, because good health information is a regular part of every school curriculum. Even in kindergarten and nuraery schools good health habits are emphasized, so that the child returns home with pointed information on cleanliness, nutrition, correct posture and other simple health facts. Thus from the school into the home go simple illustrations of good health habits. With the child as the source of information, a wise parent will pat the - instruction into effect. The teacher's efforts will be wasted if the parent refuses to supervise the child's resultant activities in the home The teacher or school nurse will notice, for example, that the child's vision is poor, a physical weak- ; ? nesa» correction of which, some- ;!;? times with glasses, may bring an annavanilv HIAW A1« IIJI «« health, when he is dependent on you, will pay dividends, not only to the child, but to the health ot the nation. •is':": 'i: IAA President Urges Vote For Gateway Plan iPf1- V' an apparently slow child up par. Identification and correction of defects form another key to ° good physical and mental health. Wise indeed is the parent who has each child physically examined, from top to tpe, every year from babyhood on and, when defects are located, adopts the advice of the family doctor. The prevention of disease is important and can be accomplished, to a great extent, through immunisation against diphtheria, whooping cough, smallpox, measles, tetanus and typhoid. Most of these diseases are contagious and can spread rapidly into epidemics. In health matters, a parent cannot live just for today. But health habits are more difficult to correct when the child grows older. Because the child's mind is espec ially susceptible to impressions, good training should be the early responsibility of the parent. The environment of the home, particularly a happy home where the father and mother are emotionally stable, with good health habits, is a significant factor in the emotional development of the child. Meals, for example, need not be elaborate, but simple and nntrlclous. The daily bath, which should b& carried out by the growing child, is a good health habit and ahould become routine to the child. Attention to the nails, the brushteg of teeth, good table manners -are all socials "musts" for later life. So, to repeat, planning 1s essential for the child's good health, mental and physical. Why not plan to make your child's Mrthiday an annual health event? A physical examination by the family doctor on that day is a good habit. Planning your child's Illinois voters should pay specia attention to a blue ballot they will receive when they vote in the general election Nov, 7, according to Charles B. Shuman, president of the Illinois Agricultural Association. The IAA is the state Farm Bureau organization with 175,000 farm family members. On that ballot will be printed a proposal to make, it easiet£3o change the state constitution, Shuman said. He urged everybody to vote "yes" on the blue ballot This plan for thawing oat Illinois' constitution is known generally as the Gateway Amendment. It has been given this name because it is hoped it will open the door to more up-to-date government in the state. "You oan aee we need a few changes in oar constitution when you consider that it hasn't been amended since 1908," Shuman declared. "This means we have lagged behind in getting some needed reforma." Adopting the Gateway Amendment will not make it too easy to change the constitution, however, the IAA president stated. "But the constitution will be flexible enough so that it can be adjusted to meet present demands. That's the only way we can make progress in our tax system and in our government generally." Under the Gateway plan, an amendment to the constitution will be passed if two-thirds of the persons voting on the amendment vote hi favor of it. The present constitution requires that an amendment must receive a majority of all the votes cast in an election to be passed. "Failure to vote for the Gatew: y amendment is actually a vote against the plan," Shuman said. "So look for that blue ballot on Nov. 7. Vote "yes" on this ballot to heJLp get better government Quite a number of lovers of out door life who reside in the west end of town enjoyed a clam bake at McCullom Lake last Sunday.

But 350 to 400 of them each year don't, with tragic results. *A study made by the Chicago Motor Club in Illinois and Indiana shows that deaths In traffic accidents at street corners in the 5-14 age group rank near the top in number. Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor Club, says, "Thes>e statistics are all the more sur that sort def and In safety. "Fatalities involving children at street tfbrners still occur," according to Mr Hayes, "even though the boy or girl is outwardly observing the rule not to cross in mid-block. The answer must be inattention or else ignorance of rules concerning pedestrian safety at intersections. "Stop and caution signs, traffic signals, trafic policemen, and a system of hand signals govern the motorist's approach to and passage through an intersection. The pedestrian, too, whatever his age, must heed the laws Which apply to his crossing the street at a corner. Sixteen per cent of all traffic accident fatalities in the 8-14 age group occurred at intersections. Statistics of the motor club survey reveal that the actions of children who were killed at street corners involved- i violation, by them or by the motorist, of the simplest, most Common sense rules. Of the 16 percent mentioned, 8 percent took place where there was no affic signal; 5 percent on a ossing against the signal; 2 perle crossing with the sig- 1 percent whlle jcrosstpg jr. •" -•* »*«• "«•' tion Is a major Cause of accidents among children, anticipating the ball game on the next street or telling off Mother's grocery list on their finthey will step off the curb corner 'in a fog'. cannot assume respon- >r the actions of' each Children, especially, ng more, spontaneous, to judge at street corner; they may face one direction, then dash another. But for his own feanetit, the motorist should be extra watchful when driving through residential neighborhoods. , Parents and teachers have the duty to instruct children, not only kt the need for alertness in crossing streets, but in the rules which govern pedestrian traffic. Youngiters should be told of the authority of traffic policemen and 1 aafety patrols. They should itight the meaning of trafi kr signals, stop signs and mark- «*•> ' 1 ' m i . ' / . I ed' sidewalks. Th4y riuMld be told that, in starting aCroaa the street on the green light, they should look not only right and left bat also to the rear and ahead to be prepared for turnlug vehicles. With the increase In motor'traffic and the development of modern traffic Control devices in recent years, a child must do more than look to see if the way is clear before he crosses a street. He must know more. And a greater responsibility lies with his elders in providing this knowledge -- especially in giving good example. "Two out of five accidental deaths in the 6-14 age group were the result of motor vehicle accidents in 1948," says Mr. Hayes. "If we can accustom our youth to thinking before crossing streets at intersections, they will be able to use that same equipment to protect themselves at all times when near street traffic and reduce thia sad condition."

Chis**, 670 o* TAYING hens need quite a bit of I--/ coaxing during the winter months to keep egg production up to a profitable level for the poultryman. How do you coax a hen? Well, try the indirect approach by applying the essentials of good laying bouse management, sanitation and feeding practices. Plenty of nests arc needed in the poultry house: one nest for every seven laying hens in the flock. This will make for cleaner eggs and less rling »nd breaking. Ample room ihoui3 be provided too, for unlesa the bird( are able to sleep in comfort, their production will suffer. Poultry experts tell us that the hens should work for 14 hours and sleep for ten. Appetites are apt, to be slow during the winter months, and the Urds should be encouraged to eat. Laybig house lights should be arranged with this in mind, and also placed to avoid shadows which will encourage floor laying. As for the feed,, a good laying ration should be kept in the hoppers at all times. Moreover, a few pounds of pellets on top of the mash at noon and again at night will pep up sagging appetites. Provide plenty of water and remember that tiie hens prefer warm water in the whiter time. Keep the floor dry around the fountains, and make sure ventilation is adequate. Windows that-are hinged at the bottom, allowing the top to tilt hi tat ventilation are found to be the beat. When the litter becomes damp and cold, poor ventilation or crowding is probably the cause, and trouble lies Just ahead. If you keep 'em happy, they'll keep you in winter egg profits.
