BUILDINGS ARE BEING CLEANED AND PUT IN SANITARY CONDITION—COAL SUPPLY IS

BEING DELIVERED AT BUILDINGS

ABOUT FIVE WEEKS REMAIN

Of Summer Vacation Period As the Schools Open the First or Second Week in September—List of the

v'

Teachers Almost Ready To Be

Given Out Will Be Some New Faces This Year.

The city school officials are active in getting everything in readiness for the opening of the 1912-13 term of school. Much work is being done on the interior of the buildings to put them in a perfectly clean and sanitary condition. The walls have been treated, ^nd the wood-work and furniture has been or will be gone over. At the high school building the old varnish was removed from all the woodwork and furniture with a preparation that will do awray with any germs or microbes that might have been lurking there. The wood work was then all revarnished or painted and it presents a nice, clean, appearance.

The school board has purchased three hundred tons of coal, which they are having distributed at the various buildings now, while the weather is nice. At the west building a basement has been excavated to accommodate the winter's supply of coal.

The summer vacation period will continue now only about five weeks as school will begin the first or second week in September. These weeks will fly for the boys and girls. The list of teachers is practically completed and will be ready to give, out soon. There will probably be some new faces this year, as Dan Cupid chose two of the lady teachers for his victims, one, Miss Gilliatt, a primary teacher, and Miss Clara Hagans, a high school teacher.

The township trustees are also exerting themselves to get the ranks of their teachers filled as early as possible with satisfactory instructors, and this is no easy task, it is said, as teachers" are scarce, notwithstanding the higher wages that are being paid over a few years ago. Some of the examinations the past year have caused many would-be teachers to lose out, it is said, an unusually large number failing to make the necessary grades.

At New Castle recently it was reported that every applicant failed on one examination, to secure renewals of their licenses.

Teachers and others are discussing Supt. Greathouse's entire-year-team idea pretty freely and sentiment for and against the idea seems pretty evenly divided.

MOTHER'S PRESENCE OF MIND SAVES SELF AND CHILDREN.

.... 3..., .. ,,..

The presence of mind of Mrs. D. A. Barclay, of Marion, resulted in the saving of her own life and the lives of her four children. She was walking on a railroad trestle when a train bore down upon her. She threw two little girls down into a ravine, a distance of fifteen feet, and with a three year old child and a six months old baby in her arms, she jumped. A ten year old boy crouched at the end of the ties and his fingers on one hand were severed and he was otherwise hurt, probably fatally.

Guard Your Children Against Bowel Trouble Many children at an early age become constipated, and frequently serious consequences result. Not" being able to realize his own condition, a child's bowels should be constantly watched, and a gentle laxative given when necessary.Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are. especially well adapted to women, and children. The Sisters of Christian Charity, 531 Charles St., Luzerne, Pa., who attend many cases of sickness say of them:

"Some time ago we began using Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets and find that we like them very much. Their action Is excellent and we are grateful for having been made acquainted with them. We have had good results in every case and the Sisters are very much pleased."

The form and flavor of any medicine is very important, no matter •who is to take it. The taste and appearance are especially important when children are concerned. All parents know how hard it is to give the average child "medicine," even though the taste is partially disguised. In using Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets, however, this difficulty is overcome. The shape of* the tablets, their appearance and candy-like taste at once appeal to any child, with the result that they are taken without objection.

The rich chocolate flavor and absence of other taste, make Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets the ideal remedy for children.

If the first box fails to benefit, the price is returned. Ask your druggist. A box of 25 doses costs only 25 cents. Never sold in bulk. MILES MEDICAL CO. Elkhart, Ind.
