THE BIG INTERVIEW—There's lots of paperwork to be handled before youngsters'are ready for
school this fall and this young lady is completely relaxed as she and her mother answered the nurse's
questions. The Huron County Health Unit keeps a complete set of records for each youngster entering
school and'it is ready for easy reference when the need arises at some future date. (stiff photo)

OUCH!x'-They said it wouldn't hurt much but that's only if you are
• not the person.who has to sit 'in the chair and have a blood sample
. taken from your finger --and all so you can go to kindergarten in
the fall. The blood sampling corner of'the pre-schoolers' clinic
was not the most popular spot'as is evidenced by this photo. (staff

be consiaered,,...This little fellow is getting his teeth brushed with •a special fluoride papte which will
prevent many painful cavities for up to one year. Mom seems to. approve. (-staff photo)

app°rahatiaion for this little miss as her booster shots do, it won't be
the 1y pleasant experience she's always Wed,. But
