Address him at Spadina House, Spadina Crescent, Teronto, Ontario. How many communicable or infectious diseases can be avoided? That is a question of interest to everybody, but in the cause of children, it is especially important to know something about it. One way to avoid these diseases is to keep away from people who are siek and from places where these diseases exist. This advice is especially good for children. If you come near a child having one of these contagious diseases you may be exposed to breathing the germs when they are thrown out into the air by the sick child coughing.

A third precaution is to never allow a sick child to go to school. If you find that a child is or seems sick, report this fact to teacher 'at once. If you learn that there is sickness in the home of a child who goes to your school, immediately notify the teacher, that he may send the child home, because the sick child may spread contagious through the school. These precautions should still more rigorously be adhered to when there are many cases of contagious disease prising 18ly easy it is for you to begin enjoy- ing real radio at once! one for Svery FHome Six new models--3%$22.00 to $450.00 break is known to the school authori- ties.
