The teaching staff had devised many ingenious and at- tractive ways of presenting the school‘s program of work through the grades. The art, science. socâ€" ial studies and reading programs were particularly impressive. The junior choir presented a short program midway through the evening. The musical selec- tions were enjoyed by the aud- ience and this year’s open house was pronounced a great success by all who attended.

CARL E. HILL. M.D., M.O.H WALTER SCOTT SCHOOL Most people are not inter- ested in diseases or in the positive ways they can main- tain good health. Of course some people are; but. too frequently, these are people who have become interested in health when they have lost their own. or when a family member or friend have been stricken with illness or ac- cident. All too often, the av- erage person, who is well, probably wouldn't ‘list the subject of his health as being one that he’d like to spend much spare time exploring. DEPT. OF HEALTH TWP.
