SAY AH PLEASE The services of Miss Juanita Booth, school nurse, has always been appreci- ated by those with cuts and sprains and that morning after feeling. She has also helped protect our general health through vaccination and TB test cam- paigns. Under her advisership, the Junior Red Cross has more than done its share of war time activities.
