One of the more common minor injuries to plague our children are puncture wounds caused by rusty nails, splinters, glass and a wide array of sharp objects. Although we think of these as "minor" injuries, they often pose very definite dangers in that they are difficult to clean thoroughly, often they do not bleed well, and the threat of tetanus cannot be taken lightly. It is advisable to seek professional treament in cashes of this nature and most certainly, if fever, pus, or red streaks indicative of infection, a doctor should be consulted.

"Vote No on the Revenue Amendment on Election Day', members of the non-partisan women's organization are urging this year. "It's a new role for the League, which successfully backed the approval of the Judicial Article "blue ballot" amendment to the Illinois Constitution in 1962 and has long supported the state's need for constitutional reform. "Mrs. Ezra Levin of Champaign, state League president, said the LWV's opposition to the proposed Revenue Article revisions is based on a twoyear study of state taxing jaowers. "In that study, upstate and downstate members of the seventy-seven Leagues of Women Voters set up criteria for a good state tax system-- then all counties, not just Cook county, should have the right to classify real property for tax purposes. "--t hat the amendment should not include limitations on taxing levels, and bonding powers should not be constitutional. Rather, the legislature should have the power to set such limits. "The LWV is not the only organization opposing approval of the proposed Revenue Article^- "blue ballot" on Nov. 8. A number of groups have joined together to form an organization titled Defeat the Revenue Amendment. Included are the Illinois Congress of Parents and Teachers, Illinois State AFL-CIO, Illinois Municipal Leauge, Illinois Federation of Teachers, National Farmers Organization Committee on Illinois Government and others.
