GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL
By Dr. W. J. Scholes
Children with good minds some-
times fail to learn as readily as they
should. There are different reasons,
for this. Among them is ill -health or
the presence of .some physical defect.
In schools where there are regular
medical examinations of the pupils,
these defects are often discovered. In
many instances their correction is pos-
sible But all children are not fortun-

A Warning to Be Remembered
Last March, the United States Pub-
lic Health Service issued a warning
against the use of bunion pads as a
dressing in vaccination, It seems that
the use of the bunion pad as a_.vaccin-
ation shield became somewhat popu-
lar.Some fatal cases of tetanus (lock-
jaw) followed their use.
The spores of the tetanus bacillus,
the germ that causes tetanus, or lock-
jaw, were demonstrated on bunion
pads in tests made in the Hygienic
Laboratory of the Public Health
Service.
The Public Health Service discour-
ages the use of shields of any kind as
dressings for vaccination. It is stated
thattheir use makes conditions favor-
able for infection, especially for infec-
tion
nfectionwith tetanus germs or spores. It
is further stated that it is best to use
no immediate dressings in the majori-
ty of cases.
It is well to remember this warning
at this time of year when many chil-
dren will be vaccinated against small-
pox prior to entering school.

some baking soda is dissolved, usually
helps to releive the itching. A little
starvation when you get the hives, and
drinking large .amounts of water may
help. A laxative is generally advised.
Severe cases should of course be
treated by a physician.
