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- luq —o,..» 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. ate enough to attend schools in which there are medical tests. would surely like to get rid of them How about the six-year-old who is just starting to school?

S: F. writes: "What, causes hives? I break out with them every little while. If I scratch the skin to stop the itching they only get worse. I seem to be in good health. What can I do to keep from getting then? What is good.to stop the itching? I IN o�la I0 11 for good if there is any way of doing it." Reply While most people are able to eat all of the ordinary foods ,with no ill- effects there are certain people to blackboard. Properly fitted glasses lwhom some of the protein foods act may give perfect vision. The chi that is unable to hear much of what is said, may acquire an undeserved re- putation for backwardness. Yet even defective hearing may sometimes be remedied. Ill -health due to'poor teeth, diseas- ed tonsils or adenoids, and faulty nu- trition .may be causes o is eness as. poisons. A peculiar sensitiveness to these foods is present. Among the foods that cause: hives in susceptible people are eggs, milk, meats, different kinds of shell -fish, berries, melons and occasionally grains.
