Glowing Portrayal of the School of the" Future. The little red schoolhouse is poetic in songbooks and sentimental ora- tions, but it exacts an appalling toll in the health of children condemned to spend much of their youth within its insanitary walls, a writer in the Chicago Daily News asserts. The schools of the future will be built primarily to serve the health needs of the growing child and the reward will be a generation of sturdy citi- zens with color in their cheeks and a spring in their steps. Such is the picture painted by Dr. Max Saham, professor of pediatrics at the University of Minnesota and a leading authority on fatigue in chil- dren. Doctor Saham, in Chicago in connection with recent baby week ac- tivities, holds that while America has been piling up riches beyond those of any nation in history, its children have been drifting toward physical bankruptcy. “One iio children have begin- ping tuberculosis. Four hundred thousand have leakage of the heart. One million suffer from spinal curva- ture and other deformities. Two mil- lion have defective hearing, and five million reveal malnutrition,” Doctor Saham cited these figures as warrant for a vigorous effort on the part of the state to reorganize its education- al program so as to build up the health of future citizens. “Sixty per cent. of the 25,000,000 school children of America attend rural schools. Hardly a rural com- munity is without one more un- sanitary, indecent, unfit schools. Children are compelled to pass their days in buildings in which no em- ployer would think of asking work- men to toil.” The schools of the future, rural as well as urban, “will have fresh-air rooms, lighting will be from the sun, seats and desks will be adjustable, lunches will be served, at least one wholesome, rational meal a day, physical education under the leader- ship of experts will be compulsory and universal, Doctor Saham believes. “The weak and defective child, through corrective exercise in small special classes, will get its full oppor- tunity for normal development. There will be clinics for the diagnosis of mental as well as physical ailments, with full time physicians and nurses watchng the health of the children. “The teachers will be prepared to instruct in practical hygiene as well as in academic subjects. All of this will be linked up with the home—the school being considered the day home of the child.”—Exchange. Marriage Licenses. Steve Kadish and Annie Smitchko, both of Clarence. Bruce E.

The purchasing value of the dollar since December, 1925, has increased nearly 6 per cent. and now stands at the highest point since July, 1924, the National Industrial Conference Board announced yesterday through the As- sociated Press. On the basis of living costs last month, the board said, the dollar now is worth 61.7 cents as compared with the 1914 dollar. It was lowest in July 1920; ‘When “its purchasing power had shrunk to 48.9 per cent. of the pre- war dollar. Declining living costs were given by the board as the reason for the in- crease in the dollar’s purchasing power, which, it is said, has been steady during 1926 and the current year. During this period, the board said, average wage earnings have fluc- tuated not more than 4 per cent. and employment has been steady.—Clear- field Republican. —Lawns should be gone over now NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
