THE COMMERCIAL BOOK STORE chest t School Election SALEM The third Monday in June is the date set by law for the annual school election of school district 129-J. The third Monday in June, this year, is Monday, June IM. Each »ear the three-year term of one of the school board directors expires. During the last year of this directors term of <> ic*< such person usually is chairman of the school board. Mr. Donald K. Sheythe's term of office on the school board of 129-J expires this year. The duly qualified voters of school district 129-J will elect. Monday, June 18, a school director for a new three-year term. District 129-J includes Mill City and Elkhorn areas because of the recent school district consolidation. Qualified voters are those who have been residents of the district for six months and registered for the purpose of voting at least 30 days prior to the election. A qualified voter is not required to own property in order to vote at any school election. ¥ ¥ ¥ Those who have children under the care and supervision of the Mill City school system are aware of certain facts about this school. I hose who pay taxes see another meaning in this public school. We are confident that the public is interested in their schools, and if given the chance will show this interest in a proper manner. The widest public notice should be given school affairs. When the public supports its schools, generally they are good ones. Me invite the use of the columns of The Enterprise by voters for making public their pleasure in the annual school election of district 129-J, Monday, June 18. School director nominating letters, properly signed, addressed “To the Editor" are welcomed. The letter writer’s name will be withheld upon request. Get Ready! As the Soviet "arsonist fires" of Greece and Berlin were doused by the timely work of United States’ firemen, so is the fire in Korea rapidly cooling and ceasing its spread because1 of the fine work of the I nited Nations firemen. Iranian oil now appears as the possible fuel for the next "fire". The1 Chinese, never a warlike people, have their stomachs full of the horrors of modern warfare and feel more like throwing in the towel. The United States expected this. Iran began smoking when the stench of burned Korea began stinging the nostrils of the Chinese Reds. Already the first angry flames of the Iranian fire are flickering. The Iranian government sits on a very large powder keg and knows a fuse to its contents has been lighted. ¥ ¥ ¥ Turkey, Georgia, and Armenia could I m 1 used by the Reds as the "Man churia" of the Iranian conflict. The Soviet has been massing non-Soviet armies—‘‘recruited" them from Soviet satellite countries. These men could be the Iranian version of the Chinese "volunteers” in Korea. The poor, ignorant, and dissatisfied Iranian people are ripe for harvest just as were the Koreans. The reason which could be given for the "volunteers" coming into Iran is that they are seeing to it that Iran carries out its oil "nationalization" program without "imperialistt" hindrance. Turkey will be put on the spot, too. if things get hot in Iran. She will need help from the United Nations. The Russian bear will need some more stones thrown at it.

It provides such services as maternal and child health care, sanitation, commu nicable disease control, labora tory facilities, vital statistics and health education. Answer to Question No. 2: 2. No. Prescriptions are us ually for a given disease for a given period of time. Some medicine spoils in only a short time. A drug prescribed for one person is not necessarily good for another, even though they have the same disease. It may be dangerous to use drugs pre scribed for one illness to treat another sickness without vour doctor's approval H Fox Valley ing should include medicine chest cleaning Answer to Question No. 3: 3 Before babies are a month old. they are often given, on the advice of a doctor, some form of vitamin D. the sunshine vitamin. Premature babies especially need extra vitamin D since they may not have inherited much from their mothers and because they grow so fast. Many doctors give babies vitamin C in the form of orange juice before they are a month old Medicine’s dis covery of the importance of vitamins is one of the outstand ing health contributions of the 20th century.
