EE Bellefonte, Pa., April 9, 1920. PENNSYLVANIA PUBLIC HEALTH SCHOOL WHAT? HOW? WHEN? One time in Chicago a cow kicked over a lantern. A bucket of water would have extinguished the blaze. It was not applied. The resultant fire destroyed 17,450 buildings ($195,000, 000), and 275 people. If the man who brought smallpox to a certain city in Pennsylvania had ‘been vaccinated, ten deaths, thirty ‘cases of hideous scarring and a num- iber of cases of permanent physical de- ‘fects would have been preven:ed. The State Health School will tell ' some true stories of what has happen- ed, and some ways by which it may be prevented from happening aga.l. The lessons will be publ shed in the Pennsylvania newspapers uuling the second and fourth week of eich wonth. ‘Bach will be followed by thiec ques ‘tions, which any one who has read the lesson can answer. The answers will not be marked, but will be gruwcd as a whole as “good” or “pour.” ly .1 itelligent person can do ihe geading. In this school should be nuibered every Pennsylvanian who can read. The maximum cost is twenty-four ‘cents—that dis twenty-four postal «cards, one to each lesson. To join, ‘write on the postal card with the an- swers to the first set of g.es ous (hs pledge, or words to that elfect: “] promise to read the lessons of the Public Health School of Pennsyl- ‘'vania, and send my answers lo th questions within three days from time of reading.” The address lo wh.ch tle answers are sent will be given in the newspapers. To handle the answers and to in- sure proper credit, each county has ‘heen organized under a Central Heal lk ‘School Committee consisting of : Coun- ity Medical Director, County Executive ‘Secretary, County Superintendent of 1Schools, County District Atiorney, Chairman Board of County Commis- :sioners, to which have been added as local conditions warran.ed, County Representatives of the Red Cross, of the Society for the Prevention of Tu- berculosis or of other organized bodies. This committee has appo n.ed a tem- porary chairman for each county cen- ter, which chairman has sciected a local committee and organ..ed per- manently. The Local Health School Coummiit- tees ask all churches, lodges and so- cieties and organizations in their re- spective districts, including - labor, to urge their individual members to join the school and to send their answers on postal cards to the aadress give. in the paper. The Secretary of the Local Sub-Com- mittee forwards to the County Execu- tive Secretary, the number of satisfac tory answers from that district. The County Executive Secretary tabulales these results for the county and for- wards the report to the State Health Department, These results may be regarded as an index of the county’s health intelli- gence and educational standard. In some parts of the state, prizes are being offered by business men, for local disricts which have the best percentage and for individuals who send in the best answers. Cities are organized af‘er the same plan as counties. Local units being school districts, with tne understand ing that the plan of organization ma be changed to meet local requirements. Public, private, parochial schools, colleges, normal schools, Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs, Chambers of Com- merce or any other organized society or association may lighten the labors of the local secretary of the sub-com- mittee by sending ‘their answers to the Secretary of their own organiza- tion, who will send the number of satisfactory answers to the local sec- retary or he County Executive Secre- tary of the proper county. The answers to each lesson will be published with the succeeding lesson. The County and City Superintend- ents of Schools are asked to have or- ganized in each school in ‘heir respec- tive districts, a committee of alert and energetic pupils who will take from the teaching force the whole burden of organizing the schools, examining an- swers, and re‘urning results to the local secretary of the sub-committee. The school children are urged to in- duce their parents to join the Health School. Since these lessons will be available to all, some may think that sending answers to the questions is profitless and troublesome, and believe that they can derive as much benefit without do- ing this—perhaps they can; but they will not. For the credit of their coun- ty and community, they are urged to become members of the school. Even though times be hard, two postals a month are not an extravagance when the end desired and often attained is the saving of life, perhaps your own or that of the one nearest you. Also, a large enrollment strengthens the hands of those laboring for a bet- ter state health, With That Voice. _He—1 have formed the habit of singing at my work. ! erly, tract in Bellefonte; $3250.

The reconstruction period after the great war is characterized by what may be call- ed high pressure days. The demands of business, the wants of the family, the re- quirements of society, are more numerous now than ever before. The first effect of the praiseworthy effort to keep up with all these things is com- monly seen in a weakened or debilitated condition of the nervous system, which re- sults in dyspepsia, defective nutrition of both body and brain, and, in extreme cas- es, in complete nervous prostration. It is clearly seen that what is needed is what will sustain the system, give vigor and tone to the nerves, and keep the diges- tive and assimilative functions healthy and active. Many persons from their own ex- perience recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla for this purpose. It acts on the vital or- gans, builds up the system, and fits men and women for these trying times. In cases where there is biliousness or constipation, it is well to take Hood's Pills. They are a thorough cathartic, a gentle laxative. 65-15 Children Cry SERRE EERE A NWN NOMURA oN The Kind You Have Always for Fletch SNNNNNNNNAN 33 er’s RR a Bought, ard which has been in use for over over 30 years, has borne the signature of All Counterfzits, Imitations Experiments and has been made under his per- sonal supervisicn since its infancy.
