" being utilized to screen grades P.T.A. has had its usual pleasure in assisting Mrs. Pauline Pries, R.N., the nurse for McHenry consolidated schools. In September, all first grade students were weighed and their heights recorded. This will be done again in May. Oct. 6 at Edgebrook school, physicals were done for those first grade students whose parents desired it. On Oct. 13 at Landmark school, the fifth graders had physicals. Oct. 21, the freshmen at M.C.H.S. were given theirs. A total of 860 physicals, were done on these dates and 100 more comprehensive physicals were given in August to all high school boys who go out for athletics.

Serve Several Schools In all of these programs, the children from Lakemoor and those from St. Mary's and St. Patrick's are brought in to participate and their health committees are there to help out. March 2, a visual screening program was started. In eight school days, the health committee screened 1,065 children in grades 1 to 8. Mrs. Pries did fifty students at MCHS, whose teachers referred them for testing, plus the entire faculty there. I think the teachers were intrigued with the new Bausch and Lomb Ortho-rater which was loaned to Mrs. Pries hv the House of Vision. This excellent machine saved mothers many an aching back and speeded up our job considerably. In all, ninety-two children were referred for further ex- "amination. Forty forms indicating completed eye examination have been returned and thirty-six new pairs of glasses are being worn.

Cook's Corner by Marie Schaettgen Do you have trouble getting rid of that left-over pot roast? If you do, try making hash out of it. Men, especially, seem to like hash. Perhaps we women don't like it as much because the name has a plebian sound. But it can taste so good. Browned Hash 1 cup chopped cold cooked beef 1 cup cold -boiled potatoes, diced 1 tsp. chopped green pepper 1 finely chopped onion - 2/3 tsp. salt Vi tsp. pepper - 1 tsp. milk . 1 tsp. lard or 'butter or both Saute onions first for few minutes. Add all other ingred i e n t s m i x e d t o g e t h e r , spread the mixture evenly in hot frying pan in which fat and onions have been placed. Cook without stirring until crust is formed on bottom. Fold over like an omelet and serve on hot platter. Do not take life too seriously you'll never get out of it alive anyway.
