e.iuse and the means for preventing another was thlc nanded. Systematic inspection of the schords ly a trained Pidlic health nurse was urged as the best means of carimr for the school
children. Th examination of the school children showed that more than CO per cent of them were physically defective. It was found also that there were o children in the public schools who hail tuberculosis. Just what to do with these children, how they j-hould be educated and Imilt up phyideally and how at the same time they iniht be isolated from the well children, was tiie next problem which faced the city. The open Air school .seemed the best solution and was opened in January, 101.". "Only the most needy children were selected at tirst. They are watch .id ery closely. wcih"d regularly, accurate charts are kept showing the vain in weight from wet k to wek. special attention is uiven their diet, th most nourishing food bein sc"cted.

The improvement in their physical condition and the progress in their studies is soon noticeable. "one of the most interesting and progressive pieces of work undertaken in Jacksonville is the psychological clinic for mentally deficient and retarded children. "For all the lines of work careful and accurate records are kepi. The form generally used is the one adopted by the national organization for public health nursing."

monster racing drivers of the and a complete for nlffht racing.
L. A. Moross. director of speedway contests, is in the city preparing for the appearance of his space annihlllators here on Sept. CO on the new-half-mile track at Springbrook park. He has had a world of experience in this line of work and has been in the racing game since 1102. He has managed some of the world's greatest racing- teams and had charge of the Indianapolis motor speedway during some of the greatest contests held on
that track. He carried eight machines, a dozen championship class, lighting equipment
He came to South Pend on the recommendation of William Engleman of the Kalamazoo Driving club, who was an interested spectator of the fair races last week. Thirty minutes after his arrival in town he was on tho speedway at Springbrook. He gave the plant and the track a careful inspection and pronounced it lirst class for his contests. Fast Speed Promised. "Can your drivers make any speed on the track?" he was asked. "With good weather, and favorable conditions, they will beat the world's half mile track record," he stated without a moment's hesitation. "If we do better than anyone else has ever done, if we go faster than any other driver has even driven, will that be satisfactory?" The managers of the park thought likely that would be sullicient to satisfy South Bend race fans. "Can you keep the cars on the track and not ruin my new fences?" asked E. P. Dailcy, anxiously. "Most assuredly," said Mr. Moross. with a snide, "my drivers can't break records by making high dives into tho river and they'll do better than 33 seconds on that track. So It is no wonder that the parkmen are enthused over next week's nice meet. Publicity is going out all over tho northern part of Indiana and. with Kood weather, a crowd that will tie the biggest day at the Interstate
fair will assemble to see the speed kings in their dare-devil races. Was an OiH'ii Date. It was a lucky chance that brought the cars here at this time. An open date between Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo, enabled the promoter to come here. October dates will take him to tho state fair in Oklahoma and from there south through Texas and latel to California. Another point of particular Interest to thte community Is the number ol Indiana made cars that will be seen in action on the Springbrook course. The National, Marmon and Rtutz will corn pete again. That battle of the old days of the speedway to be renewed here. It is a long time since tho stutz. National and Marmon, old rivals, have hooked up for a brush in a
speeti duel in Indiana, and it Is a matter of unusual interest that these cars will participate in the events to bo run here. The Marmon, winner of numerous speedway classics, will be driven bv La, Coquen, the National by Pen GcTtof, the Stutz by clever Joe Murchio. Murchio will pilot the Stutz with which Earl Cooper won the national championship two years ago, and without doubt one of the fastest track cars ever built at a displacement of 4 50 inches. Too largo in piston displacement for the bust Indianapolis race, which was reduced to cars of COO inches and less, the Stutz has a world of speed, and Is faster than tho 300 inch cars now in use.

Ii is neither extravagant nor expensive for the mother who is smartly gowned to dress her children equally smart when they are going to school. The question of dress has much to do with their standing in class, and with classmates, with their ambitions and deportment, that good clothes are not an extravagance, but a well-paid investment. The well dressed boy or girl is usually the one with a longer measure of self respect.
