CROOK COUNTY JOURNAL
BOARD Of HEALTH
Rules to Be Followed in the
Schools are Good
WOULD APPLY IN HOMES, TOO
Read Them Over, Cut Them
Out and Paste in Your
Scrap Book
The state board of health has is
sued a little booklet for use by the
health officer in the district schools
of the state, in which are contained
so many good points for the home
as well as the school that the
Journal has decided to reprint most
of its text.
If these ideas were enforced in
the homes and schools of the state
there would be less sickness. Here
they are:
Windows should be at least one
ninth of the floor space.
Windows should be to the left
ani the rear of the building. If
this is not done, it is better to
change the desks.
The blackboard should never be
between two windows. If it is,
curtains should be procured to
darken these windows.
Eye strain usually begins in the
public school.
The building must be ventilated.
Let the bad air out.
Always open windows from the
top.
Every school should have a board
to fit under the lower sash so air
can be sifted betwen the upper and
lower sashes.
An cpen window is better than
an open grave.
The windows should be washed
at least once each" term.
Don't be afraid to let the sun
light in.
The building should be swept
every day and the floor should be
covced with sweeping compound
or wet paper to prevent the raising
of dust.
The windows should tje opened
while sweeping.
See that the furniture and desks
are all wiped with a wet cloth
Don't allow a feather duster.
Springs are dangerous unless
very carefully guarded. ,
Don't allow waste water from
well to run back into the well.
See that the curb is good and
tight and the well cemented around
the top.
A bubbling fountain is best.
Next a cooler with individual cups.
Don't dip into a bucket.
Toilets must be kept neat and
clean.
If the odor is disagreeable, one
pound of Paris green to five gallons
of ashes from the stove will quickly
destroy all odor.
Where a septic tank is used, no
chloride of lime or disinfectant
should be allowed to get into the
tank. ,
Wash basins should be furnished,
one each for boys and girls.
These should be scoured with Dutch
Cleanser at least' once each week.
If roller towels are used they
should be changed every day.
Paper towels can be used, but
they must be put in a box and
burned each day in the stove after
using.
The school grounds must be kept
clean and if pools of water collect
on the grounds, have the Board of
Directors plow and furrow and
drain it out.
Have ample room for a baseball
or tennis ground.
Don't allow rubbish, remains of
lunches or anything to be thrown
on- the grounds.
If any stagnant pools of water
are seen, cover with a pint of
coaloil for each hundred square
feet to kill mosquitoes.
Remember that flies breed in filth
and carry disease. Don't allow any
food for flies to remain within 200
foet of the school house.
Watch for the boy or girl who is
careless about spitting. That is
the only way you get consumption.
Be particularly careful about the
boy or girl who has a cough.
Look out for cleanliness not only
in the school room and building,
but in your own personal appear
anee.
Remember that "example is
better than precept."
Watch your finger nails. There
is no such thing hs catching cold
in a wound. The matter nearly
always comes from dirty finger'
nails.
If the roof and the well both
leak, have the well fixed first.
Flies on your food may be as
dangerous as Rough on Rats.
Keep flies from the house and
you will keep doctors away.
A rain barrel full of water
means a house full of mosquitoes.
Good water is more to be prized
than diamonds and clean hands are
better than fine gold.
A rusty tin cup and a wooden
bucket in a school room are con
venient. but very dangerous.
A stuffy room is the germ s
best ally.
A little ventilation is better than
much quinine.
A clean toilet costs less than a
funeral.
Allow the germs to escape and
protect the child. Don't shut them
up in the same room.
Keep bodies, heads hands and
nails and clothing clean and there
is little chance of gptting disease.

Selling Building, Portland, Oregon.
Each school is allowed to elect
its own Health Officer from among
fne pupils.
If for any reason your badge be
comes lost or stolen, write tne
State Board of Health and another
will be furnished.
