Cal Berkley was unduly harrassed last week by Life Insurance Salesmen. Cal says the Town is overrun with them. The agents get the first premium. This accounts for their briskness. The high-pressured salesman calls on the school teachers first. They arc easy vic­tims for them. Then he calls on the elevat­or man next and usually trims him, and the rest of the community he takes in rotation.

Schreiber gave a very interesting talk on the causes of our most serious diseases and their prevention. The Doctor is a very interesting speaker. His talk "Children Underweight’1 should be heard by all parents. A child oan.be well nourished and still be underweight. Some organization should ar­range with the Doctor to have several health talks given. We would think it should come | under the auspices of the School Board. i Hundreds now suffering could be enjoying health had they known in time. Middle-aged men should have a physical examination twice a year. Most heart diseases are caused through rheumatic fever in youth, he said. t I ■s i •V £ i! Magic.Baking Powder 2g— lb. tins -- 65/.
