Rawlings, state health director. What was regarded as an ample supply of playlets, and songs, to satisfy the demands for health promotion week, which will be observed April 26 to May 2, was published some time ago and now a second and larger edition of this material is practically exhausted, the director said. The demands for picture films have made it necessary to draw upon a number of outside agencies to fill the needs. "Public interest in health week is distinctly greater than ever before since the custom was inaugurated in the state seven years ago," said Dr. Rawlings. "Response to program suggestions froip schools, colleges, medical societies, health associations and churches have been especially voluminous. College presidents from all parts of the state have expressed a purpose to put on health programs foi the benefit of student bodies. School teachers and nurses in practically every county are planning to present health playlets andd songs. Other organizations are preparing programs on a community scale, involving motion pictures, health demonstrations ana lectures by talented speakers. "At a recent meeting in Springfield between representatives of half a dozen state-wide health organizations it was decided to pool the educational resources of all agencies in order to facilitate wide usage during health week. This arrangement offers to the public a surprisingly wide selection of j such material as songs, playlets, mo-j tion picture!1 films, posters, literature and talented speakers. Through thej I l l i n o i s M e d i c a l . S o c i e t y i t w i l l b e p o s -j sible to fill 150 speaking engagements j w i t h s o m e o f t h e v e r y b e s t p u b l i c j speakers in the medical profession of the state. All of these services andj material are available through the state health department at Springfield.1 "The purpose of health week is simply to focus public thought on this im-! portant subject. It is interesting to J observe that since the first observance of this event in 1919, the state has en-: joyed the most favorable health conditions of which there are records. I Mortality rates have been exceedingly low by comparison. Epidemics have! been few. Good health has been the I rule."

The Modern Skyline IN America's cities everywhere, towering high above the streets, are the "skyscrapers," monuments to industries, builders, and all whose thought and achieve* ment enable hundreds or thousands to work and live comfortably under one roof. These human hives, and the activity they shelter, are made possible by the telephone, with its cables and wires spreading from floor to floor and from room to room. The messages they send and receive, now despatched so quietly and speedily in all directions, would require an army of messengers that could neither be mobilized nor directed. Without such a service as the telephone for the transmission of spoken messages, America's monu> mental business architecture would not exist, and men would have to live and work close to the ground, instead of in the air. ®ILLINOIS BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY MLL SYSTEM <*--*** * Omm System - (/stomal Smiae
