He explained the nature of the most com on diseases, how they are contracb ted, the best way to avoid them, and how to prevent the spreading of them Later Dr Laughlin and the nurse returned, and gave the T B test to all pupils who had the consent of their parents This test shows whether the 1n dividual has or ever has had T B even in a mild form Four students reacted to the test and were taken to Fairfield for X ray The X ray shows the extent of the trouble, and from that the doctor and nurse prescribe such treatment as 1S necessary This T thing to est s fine be used 1n any school and lt is the hope of the stu dents and teachers that it will be carried on every year XXXXXX SCHOOL LUNCHES Through the efforts of our Superintendent hr Jones, school lunches have been very success ful Ur Jones secured the help of Mrs Abbie Hannan, Ars Rose Hannan and Irs Blanche Cates to prepare the meals These lunches have a great value because you donft have to bring so much food from home, and they furnlsh at least one hot dish or drink The grange was kind enough to lend the school their dishes, and people around town lave also made contributions of dishes Each pupil makes a small week contribution of either money material and thus ve are able balance our vitamin as well as our budget During the week that the lower grades were hav ing vacation we made a special contribution of ice cream Je easily consumed seven gallons At first not many of the high school pupils came to the lunch room to eat, but later no one was left behind The high school students eat first at ll 30, then the grammar and primary come in at ll 45 We all hope that these lunch es V111 continue throughout the ye rs to come XXX!!!
