His enjoyment and pro- gress at school are largely de- pendent upon good physical health and early home training. Many habits are learned in their homes All children are imitators. and in the neighbourhood. As your child will be entering school this fall, the Halton Coun- ty Health unit suggests that you consider the following points: 1. Has your child been checked by your family physician. It is advisable to have an early phys- ical examination to allow ample time for the correction of defects before he begins school. If you are unable to go to your family physician, your public health nurse will be glad to discuss this with you. 2 Has he had diph- theria toxoid? Has he been vac- cinated against smallpox?- Has he been given whooping cough vaccine. 3. Does he know his name and address? 4. Is your child contented when he is away from his parents for short per- iods of time? 5. Does he speak clearly and without baby falk? 6. Does he play reasonably well with other children? 7. Does he know how 'to use a hankerchief and has he a pocket for it? 8. Can he go to the toilet by himself? Does he wash his own hands and face? 9. Since children are ex- pected to remove their outer gar- ments in the classroom, can he put on and take off his own snow suit and goloshes? Can he ad- just buttons, zippers and other fasteners reasonably well? Are his rubbers large enough for him to put on and take off easily? 10. Have you, by example, taught your child to stop, look and listen before crossing the street? 11. 4111s he accustomed to resting quiet- ly for 10 or 15 minutes once a day? 12.

"We boast about our democracy, but what is democratic about township council taking no ac- tion on a petition of 99 per cent of the ratepayers?" he queried. "But if we don't get action from council or board, we'll carry the matter further." He claimed the furthest any northern section student must travel to Milton is five miles. "I this had been voted on in the be- ginning, as it should have been, this mix-up wouldn't have curred" he concluded. oc- Other members of the delega- tion were William McFadden, Clare Ford, Clayton Maye and Norman Cantelon.

Changes October 4th Effective October 4th next, changes in the Unemployment In- surance Act will make for in- creases in benefit rates paid to unemployed persons, an official of the Lakeshore National Em- ployment office announced this week. At the present time, claimants with dependents benefit from job. insurance at the rate of 40 times the average daily contribution for the previous two years. Amend- ment to the act provides a new rate of 45 times (less 10 per cent) the employee's daily con- tribution for the previous 180 days. New maximum rate pay- able under the revised schedules will be $14.40 per week for single persons, $18.80 per week for those with dependents. According to a bulletin releas- ed by the Unemployment Insur- ance commission, a new contribu- tion class will be inaugurated on fhe same date, whereby persons earning $34.00 or more weekly will pay 42c per week. Below that SS bracket, it is understood, scientist has red a solid reason why meat continues as a basic item in the universal diet. Experimenting with 100 college girls, Dr. Ruth Leverton found those who ate little iron, con- sumed lots of meat, had good red blood. Those who ate little meat invariably had anemia. In re- checking, she gave half the ane- mic girls iron, the other half meat. Youve guessed it. The iron eaters remained palely blood- less, while the meat eaters found new health, WANTED Wanted to Rent--House or estate in Oakville, Bronte, Clarkson or Lakeshore dis- trict.
