She then sends a "Recom- mendation" that the child be taken to the family physician. Every case in school receives a home visit. The nurses are very enthusiastic about the co-operation of the parents. Is your school on the list to receive 100 per cent in "Health and Sanita- tion" in May, 1920? The Public Health nurses are checking up on the follow- ing requirements of a perfect school: Seating, Lighting; - Washing and Drinking facilities, Ventilation and Cleanliness, and Sanitary toilets. Any school can add 25 per cent addition- al to their markings if they own a pair of scales and measuring-rod, and where every child in the school has a birth certificate. VERMIN Vermin in the hair is entirely un- necessary. If long neglected, it be- comes a disease, affecting the scalp and glands of the neck, besides mak- ing the child very nervous. If any one having the misfortune will apply to the Public Health nurse in his own School District, she will visit the home and give instructions as to how to get rid of these pests. Until she comes try the following : TO FREE HAIR FROM VERMIN (Articles needed) Kerosene oil, Olive oil (Sweet vil), equal parts, half pint of each. Mix the kerosene and sweet oil and rub the mixture well into the scalp. Then with a piece of muslin cover the hair and fasten it above the head. Do not bring the head in contact with a lighted gas jet or flame of any kind. In the morning. wash the scalp well with soap and hot water, then wet the hair with hot vinegar; after which use a fine-toothed comb, wet in hot vinegar, to remove "NITS". Dry the hair with a towel before go- campaign, stressing the importance of judicious buying, systematic sav- ing and safe investment in Govern- ment securities. Cards similar to the ones put in windows to call the ice man are be- ing distributed through the chair- men. On one side of the card is "Boy wanted to earn Thrift Stamps" and on the reverse side "Girl wanted to earn Thrift Stamps." Many house- holds frequently need the assistance of a boy or a girl run to to the store, cut grass or weed the garden in summer, and sweep snow and empty ashes in winter and many other odd jobs. The children who respond to the sign call in the window are to be paid-.for their services in Thrift stamps.

Y.: "We stand for the Boy Scout movement with whose program for manly strength and integrity we are in such hearty accord that we rejoice in entering upon a plan of the most intimate co-working, coveting the closest possible co-ordination."
