COUNTY EDUCATIONAL NOTES

The Red Cross nurse, Miss Net' tie B. Jordan, gave an Inspection of the Fair Oaks school last Thursday and Friday. It is surprising at the number of defects that are handicapping our children in the schools. Children who have swollen tonsils, enlarged glands, toad teeth, adenoids, throat trouble, etc., have reduced vitalities and are susceptible to disease. They are unable to do the school tasks In the proper manner. This movement to apprise the parents of children’s defects should meet the approval of every wide-awake parent in Jasper county. Jasper county is among a very few counties In Indiana that have Red Cross nurses. It will be ■within the time of us now when regularly licensed nurses will draw public pay and the Instructions of such nurses will become mandatory rather than advisory. The Red Cross nurses are breaking the way for this eventful thing. The first Jasper county rural conference will be held at Fair Oaks Monday, Dec. 1, at 1 p. m. in the high school auditorium. The

for Hay THAT’S a Successful Farming idea. Contributed by one of Successful Farming’s more than 800,000 subscribers — E. R. Adams, proprietor of Adams’ Alfalfa Farm, Logan County, Oklahoma. He tells how he does it—and how you can do it. The article in Successful farming that his facts supplied shows exactly how he located his prospective customers —how he knew beforehand what kind and grade of hay he could dispose of most quickly and at the greatest profit—h e knew where and when was the best market for “Choice” and “No. 1” Alfalfa— how he beat the market prices on even the lowest grades. Successful Farming —by the aid of this thoughtful subscriber —lays before you the interesting details of his whole successful farming plan of getting more money for his product than he waS offered by local buyers. It shows you details of his mail-business-getting-method that will make every farmer think —that will make you understand why successful farmers (more than 800,000 of them) read and rely upon Successful Farming. For, in this farmer’s case,

The Inspiration Came From / His Favorite Farm Paper The big benefit that Successful Farming renders to its readers is that it makes them think — fills them with desire to do more, accomplish more, succeed in greater degree. Its columns are crowded with success ideas and helps. The farmer —be he a small or large landholder or an ambitious renter —finds each issue a spur to his ambition. His wife obtains a score or more profit-making, work-saving ideas from every number. And his children! —well, they know that Successful Farming is their friend through “thick and thin”—from loaning them money to make money for themselves on pigs, poultry or field crops, to showing them how to get the most out of their school work. Have you seen this remarkable farm magazine? Do you realize that — It Costs Only 35 Cents a Year —and that it is t«day one of the most helpful periodicals that ever was printed ? More than 800,000 people who work on farms —who raise the food without which the world today would starve —are subscribers to this magazine. They are truly its assistant editors —for they guide our editors at our Des Moines headquarters and they have helped to make our paper the wonderful thing it is for and every man, woman and child interested in growing and selling things.

board of education will convene at Fair Oaks instead of at Rensselaer. a large crowd of enthusiastic school people will be present that afternoon. A number of speeches from' dtisens qf Union township and the county will be made. The school will furnish a few numbers. Community singing of appropriate songs will also give variety to this afternoon Thanksgiving vacation will be this week. Schools are dismissing for Thursday and Friday following. It is hoped that all schools will conduct fitting programs in memory of the things’ for whlcn we are grateful this year. It wiould be exceptionally appropriate for teachers to read Dickens's Christmas Carol to the pupils during the next two weeks. Most all pupils of all grades can get enough of the story to make them appreciate Christmas holidays. Iva Poole’s school at Blue Grass in Newton township was closed for three days last week on account of scarlet fever. Parents are urged to keep a close watch upon their childrn to avoid dangerous complications coming from the rather mild
