CONDEMN SHORT SCHOOLHOURS Boawf to Study Elimination of Half-Day Sessions in Institutions.

In a report to the board, Mr. Stetson outlined the progress made in the adult educational classes under the CWA program.

GET THAT COLD OUTROOTS AND ALL! Give it No Chance to Sprout Anew!

A half-cured cold is a cold never cured! And once a cold gains foothold in your system it can make serious trouble for you. Many remedies merely suppress a cold only to have it pop out again. A cold, being an internal infection, requires internal treatment. And it requires a remedy that is distinctly a cold remedy and not good for half a dozen other things, too. Grove’s Laxative Bromo Quinine is what a cold calls for. It is expressly a cold remedy. It is internal and direct. It is complete in effect. It does the four things necessary. It opens the bowels, gently but thoroughly. It combats the cold germs in the system and reduces the fever. It relieves the headache and grippy feeling. It tones
