Show BARS PAPER TOWELS. Sanitary, but Temptation to Student. Declares Ogden School Board. Special to The Tribune. OGDEN, Sept. G. The overwhelming human impulse to hurl a great ball of moistened paper the size of an orange at tho unsuspecting head of some fellow student has sounded the death knell of the sanitary paper towel In the Ogden public schools After a glance over tho linen supply bills last year the members of the board of education literally clasped tho great rolls of Immaculate paper towels In their arms. At tho very outset out-set of this school year the old-fashioned roller towel of cloth Instead of paper will bo back in lt3 usual place on the wall. Tho board members have no complaint to make against tho paper ovation In considering towel for towel, but It was too much of an Incentive for the youngsters young-sters to wash their hands. In fact, it was noted that hundreds of the students, particularly in tho fourth to eighth grades, Inclusive, failed to tako tho time to wash their hands; they Just dipped them in the water and then grabbed a paper towel. So far as tho public schools were concerned, tho paper towel ceased to be a toilet requisite; it became a missile. |
