There people in town who won’t believe they snore The hardest job in the world to attend strictly to one’s own busi- ness, but when it is done success and money are the unfailing ward. Perhaps it would be a good thing for business to assume the job its own regulation.

GET YOUR CHILDREN READY FOR SCHOOL School days are just around corner for the hundreds of youngs- ters in Mount Joy and vicinity. Are they physically fit te meet the werk which the fall school pro- gram has outlined for them? is a question the parents must ans- wer. Give it serious thought. Have the family physician exam- ine each child and determine wheth- er he or she is capable of meeting the daily grind of the school room. Parents must meet this important issue now, as neglect may retard growth, physical suffering and prob- ably the loss of time in school. THE BUSY EDITOR On a newspaper like The Bulle- tin, the editor is more things than the editorial writer. He has write editorial, write news items, solicit and write advertisements, sell job printing, take subscrip- tions, read proofs, supervise general operation of the plant, keep on good terms with the sher- iff, talk sweet to creditors, loans from the bankers and do thousand and one other things, which take time, and quite often he is forced to burn lights way in- to the night in order to keep appearances and make the paper measure up to the standard. SUMMER SENSE Summer, which ought to be season - of unalloyed health pleasure, too often becomes a son of sorrow and trouble for sons who go at their summer tivities with too much zeal and little sense. Heat prostrations and drownings are not essential accompaniments of warm weather aand outdoor sport. Uncomfortably warm weather is still safe if one avoids overeating, excessive use of stimulants, wear- ing tight clothing, chilling too much of . the food and drink, and so on. Simple food, simple clothing, plen- ty of sleep, enough but not much exercise, and cheerfulness are all good preventives of heat pros- tration. The ways to lessen the number of drownings should be just familiar as the ways to avoid pros- wation. Don’t go in swimming ter a big meal or while overheated; don’t do foolhardy stunts while swimming or boating. ROADS SPUR PROGRESS Good roads have not been given the credit due them as the advance agent of civilization and human pro gress. The church, the public school, the printing press, the home, these have played a part, but have not improved methods of communi- cation accomplished even more;? Hard-surfaced highways stretch- ing from state to state and from ocean to ocean and border to der are welding the American peo- ple into a sold, coherent nation, abolishing provincialism and section- alism, destroying dialects spreading tolerance and understand- ing everywhere. The first smooth all-year-round roads were built in this country within the memory of many now living. For the seasons that traffic was heavier, the people more pro- gressive and the municipal govern- ments more prosperous, the first pavements were constructed in the largest cities. Dirt roads and cob- blestones preceded them. Today the farmers and small towns are as SPORTING HILL The Rapho Township School Board will meet on Saturday, Aug- ust 28th, Miss Mary Rohrer, Ethel Metz- ler and Etta Metzler were guests of Miss Ethel Keener.

The total number of |reactors “was slightly under 3 per jcent. In other words, tuberculosis (was found in the proportion of one {third of an animal in every herd [tested. It is self-evident that it is more economical to sacrifice one- third of an animal per herd now than to allow the disease to spread until 50 per cent or more of the animals per herd become tubercu- lous, as is the case in some Euro- pean countries. If by taking one- third of an animal now from every herd in this country tuberculosis will be eradicated, the expense will not bankrupt the livestock industry, nor will it be too much for tne State and National governments to bear,” said Dr. John R.
