Its '- directors claim. A total of 88,000 Oregon! school ehil .' dren were enrolled in the modern f health crufade last year, the state be- ittf represented, by all types and eUea - of schools from the tiny rural school TtO the big city school. Thja year, al 1 though the first semester is not yet Closed, more than 15.000 children sre . enrolied. This particular branch of the work of the Oregon Tuberculosis as- - foclatlon is directed by Jss Elisabeth Hopper. , WHAT CHILDBE3C BO --" Here, are the health . chores to whieh he children must subscribe, if they would be- classified as health crusaders : X washed, my hand before each meal .today.- . I washed my face, ears and neck and X cleaned my fingernails. - I carried- a clean handkerchief. I kept fingers, pencils and everything unclean and Injurious out of nay mouth and BOS. I brushed my teeth thoroughly this morning and after the evening meal. 'I drank four glasses of water, but no tea or coffee, I was in bed 10 hours or more last 'Sight, and kept my window open. I tried to eat slowly and only whole- - some food, including milk, vegetables and fruit , I went to toilet at regular time. I tried to sit and stand erect. - I tried hard to keep neat, to be cheer . ful, straight-forward and clean-minded. and to be helpful to others. I had a complete bath on each day .Of the week checked. . . The performance of these chorea for two weeks gives a child the title of page; after five weeks' performance ; they become squires and receive a but ton ; after 10 weeks' performance they become knight a, with a. more ornate button, and after 15 weeks' practice of the health habits they become knight bannerets and receive a handsome gilt 'button.

ChurohlH, superintendent of public in' struction, opens the way for the mod ern health crusade and intensive 'nutri tion work Is a bigger and mora com prehensive way than has hitherto been possible. The crusade brings into the school room a distinct influence serv ing to reinforce the work prescribed by the text books. Health Is not so much a matter of expensive knowledge of facts as of will to comply with a few simple laws from day to day until compliance becomes habitual. The crusade system supplies the will by interesting the child. - Teachers and principals, almost with out exception, give every assistance to Jdiss Hopper in the work, realising that the Inculcation of habits that make for better health, means higher scholastic standards. Miss Leila Howe, a teacher An Estacada, said of the movement : "It was my srivileare to carrv on this work last year and I found It ' a won derful aid in arousing the children's interest in better health." . Both the country child and the city chUd take to the health chorea like the proverbial ducks to water, and there is always great rivalry between different rooms and different classes for the highest number of those having honor buttons. ; Miss Hopper is much in demand as: a speaker at county teachers institutes and during the fall was a speaker at the following insti tutes : Morrow, Marion. LaTie, Des chutes, Harney, Curry, Clackamas, Gil liam, Wheeler, Hood River, Linn and uuitnoman. - Turkey; Costs Sag j 10 Cents Pound m Market in Chicago (Br Viimnl Srricm) 1 Chicago, Dec IS.
