Is It tim to wash our 'avs now?
The old adae that a boy hit water
la not true anymore at least, not at
the Medford Nursery School where
both boys and girls are learning hab
its of cleanliness, and seem o enjoy
being able, even at the sg of tw
to see that their faces and hiuds are
clean and their hair well combed. At
first, the children need assistance, but
they soon took their turn at ' he wash
bowls with gratifying results.
Similarly the children like to do the
other things they ant required to do,
for everything Is so arrange that trc
idea of compulsion Is submerged and
the youngsters are made to think
they are doing what they eut to do,
rather than what they hat to do
Duties thus become pleasure and
everything In life Is play.
Beldam are the words "don't o
"must" used at ths nursery school.
Even when their animal natures crop
out and they fight over a toy, the
adult referee uses diplomacy, Instead
of force or scolding. Anocier toy or
knlcknack Is Injected Into the melee;
the contenders part and coon forget
their differences. They learn how to
get along.
The Medford Nursery School was
established In December under sup
ervlslon of Mlsa Luclle Stoalfe, home
economics graduate of Oregon fitat
College, who has worked n several
nursery schools In the state, coming
here from flalem. The sch is con
ducted every school day In rooms 17
and 10 of the Junior high tcho 1. Miss
Bkalfe is now being aasUtM oy Miss
Una Hicks, graduate of Pacific col
lege, Newberg, Oregon, who cornea
here from the nursery school at Tilla
mook, Oregon, Coopemtlrv with the
supervisors Is a nursery school coun
cil, consisting of Mrs. W. CI. Cool,
Mrs. W. A. Holloway, Mrs Mable
Mack, and Mlsa Roxane Ruhl. The city
school superintendent It In general
charge.
The children are from families
whose parents have small incomes, or
where mothers are employed and are
unable to hire an attendant. Atten
dance is now eighteen, but Mis
Skalfe feels that this number will
soon be Increased to tneliuls about
33. All are between a and 8 years of
age.
In a room full of such rmsll ohl
dren mild regimentation Is necessary
The dally schedule runs something
like this:
9 a. mArrlve at the wbxol, In
spection of throat to insure agalnat

The play period, es sre a'.l the chil
dren's activities, is supervised. Ac
cessories to the play period nclud
tables, chairs, boards, toa crayons
and games, all given to the school by
local people and organic tlonf. No
funds for the purchase of equipment
sre available; and while the aupp'$

toya and cleaning up of the room
come within the pale of fundamental
training as they should receive In
their homes.
The circle period consist o a ngln.
group games, and oonveroaMon by the
children. They are tougt fca count,
know colors, and eneourjM to re
cite verses they know, or songs
The rest period It preparatory t
the lunch hour. Diets proscribed snd
arranged by the Oregon 6tate college
department of home economics are
fed to the children. The menus
vary, but call for vegetables, meav
three times a week, eggs and all the
milk the children care to drlnc. Each
child, however, is allovei t first
only one cup of milk. Then he must
est sll or most of his food colore be

la enforced to prevent children from
falling back on milk aa their sols
diet. The meals are cooked by Mrs.
Maguln and Mrs. Daley.
Weight charts are kept, one for
each child. The weight chart under
the schedule In vogue at he school
practically all show an avenge In
crease In weight since the beginning
of sttendsnce.
With their stomachs full and bodies
tired, It la not difficult to pursuadc
the children to take their napi.
though sometimes the older children
aleep but lltttle. Nevertheless they
rest.
At the disposal of the supervisors
is first aid equipment which serves
to heal cuts and bruises. Mi's Bkalfe
and Miss Hicks attend to all M e chil
dren's wants, giving their fuil tin .a
to the work.
Also Important are th event.tg

The nursery school Is flnat-red by
the state emergency relief committee.

IS NEEDED TODAY
B peaking at the Church of the
Nazarena fiunday morning from the
topic, "Ood's Armor for Conquest,"
Fred M. Weatherford. pastor-evangelist,
drew the setting of bis mes
sage from fpiieslaoa 4:10-19. In part,
he aald:
"It was a aucclnot aphorism from
the weighed words of Calvin Coolldge
tbat gava us the recipe for a re
construction act, when he appealed
to the nation, 'to turn to religion
rather than law if it would find a
cure for society's Ills.'
"Those words sre not unlike those
uttered by the Apostle Paul when,
ba said: 'Finally, my brethren, be
strong In the Lord and In the power
of Hla might.' If we are to be strong
In the Lord and In the power of
His might, we must yield ourselves
to that power for leadership and
guidance. No Individual or nation
in enjoy the guiding light of that
Hand of Might without coming to
It for Instruction. 'Know ye not to
whom ye yield yourselves to obey.
His aervsnts ye are, whom you obey;
whether of sin unto death or or
obedience unto righteousness.'
"The only realm of defense Indi
vidually, domestically, nationally or
eternally. Is by 'putting on the wbole
armor of God.'
"Our greatest difficulty Is In going
Into the bsttles of life without being
spiritually clad. One of the trage
dtea of the church today la that It
naa gone Into battle only half clad
spiritually, and In many Instances
with less or no divine equipment.
"By putting on the whole armor
of Ood there goes the accompanying
guarantee of ability to atand against
the wllea of the devil. By so doing
one receives the power of His might;
It Is the bsptlsm of the Holy Ghost
thst furnishes this equipment. 'Ye
shsll receive power after that the
Holy Ghost la come upon you.' This,
If you please, is the Christian's
breastplate of righteousness. It Is his
protection against heart Invasion.
Having taken such a stand for Christ
and the reception of such equip
ment. It will be difficult, not to
say Impossible, for the devil to sgaln
gain your affections.
'Such a Ufa Is made possible by
consecrating It In devotion and ser-

DISCOVERY HI CORNELL
ITHACA, N. T., April 3. (AP)
Analysis by two Cornell research
workers of sn "immune body" a
chemical substance wa hailed to
day as- another milestone In the long
effort to provide man with Immu
nity to disease.
The Immune body was Isolated by
Prof. James B. Bumner snd Stacy
P. Howell of the Cornell Medical
college to supply the medical pro
fession with the first complete analy
sis of one of the Immune or anti
bodies which sometimes are pro
duced In the body artificially by
vaccination, sometimes occurring
naturally.
As a result of this first Isolation
In pure crystalline form It may now
be possible to gain greater Insight
Into the nature of the Immunizing
nature of the immunizing substances
and ultimately reproduce some of
them artificially.
The aubstance Is a hemagglutinin,
a chemical which In some unknown
way causes red blood corpuscles to
stick together. It Is a protein, form
ing double wedge-shaped crystals.
It comes frcm Jack beans.

DOSE OF NITRATE
Bscterial gummosls. ths moat seri
ous disease of the sweet cherry tree,
may be controlled by the application
of the copper nitrate treatment at
this time of season, state County
Afent L. P. Wilcox.
The copper nitrate method of
treatment ae herein described, waa
worked out by the California ex
periment station and has been dem
onstrated to be effective under
southern Oregon conditions, snd is
therefore recommended to Jackson
county cherry growers.
At this time of season gummosls
cankers may be easily located be
cause of their dark colored bark tis
sue, somewhat sunken and near a
gum area. Such cankers when found
should be given the following treat
ment. Make numerous longitudinal cute
with the grain of the wood, through
ths canker or diseased area. Such
cuts to be deep enough to enter the
sap wood be neath the bark tissue,
and should extend some eight to ten
Inches above and below the diseased
area. Space the cuts about one Inch
apart and make sufficient number
so that- healthy tissue Is encoun
tered on both sides of the canker
After prepsrlng the canker In this
manner, mop the entire surface with
a copper nitrate solution, being sure
that the liquid penetrates well Into
the many cuts. A sponge may be
used for this purpose with good re
sults. The copper nitrate solution to be
used Is made up as follows: Stir
one ounce of copper carbonate Into
two quarts of water, then add one
and one-half ounces of concentrated
nitric acid. When the solution be
comes dear, add to one gallon of
denatured alcohol. The solution
should be prepared In glass or enam
el ware containers and kept in bot
tles tightly corked.
