The first day of the drive a number of pretty girls sold memberships on the street, and were successful in disposing of a large number of buttons. Posters were placed in the windows of business houses and the effort to advertise the drive in various ways had its effect.

They must note the condition of every child in their room every morning and see hat no children are permitted to remain in school who appear to be sick, or frail, or troubled with a cold. Utmost caution must be taken in this regard. It is upon us as teachers, that will depend the continuing of our schools. If we are careful ' and watchful, I am sure that we can stamp out the dreaded malady that has been preying upon our Nation during the last three months. - We hava written the janitors asking' them to have their Tjuild-ing- s thoroughly cleaned and thoroughly heated for Friday It is our desire that morning. should register 60 room every deg. at half past eight. Should the janitors fail in heating their building to this degree of temperature, kindly notify us at once. We must not hold children in , buildings inadaquetly heated, as colds are most to the flu. We are also asking our medito visit your cal inspectors schools every day if possible during the first two weeks to assist you and instruct you in reference to the abolishment of the flu. We hope you get the spirit and intention. of this letter and will do all in your power to see that conditions are made favorable to the continuing of our school work. . Respectfully yours, . J. 0.
