Mrs. Joseph S the health committee, s 15 following report: *“The health com- l ittee is much exercised over condi- s prevailing in many of our school bulldings. The question of proper lighting presents a definite handicap to every child in those schools which have no fixtures to supplement the daylight on these dark winter morn- ings and short afterncons. The com- mittee feels that electric lights should be installed at the earliest pos. sible moment; also the dingy walls and ceillngs should be painted. Much {of the light which succeeds in getting In(') the room is lost because of their condition. More attention should be paid to the adjustment of the shades and the removal of dark and shiny objects, to the end that glare be elim. inated while the light remains suffl cient for the children in every part of the room. Many children will have to thank the disregard of these fea- tures for definite evestraln and its attendant bad effects on the general health, to say nothing of the draw- back to their scholastlc progress. Our health department is carnestly re- questing the efficient Jighting of every schoolroom and this committee heart- ily seconds the motion and hopes for prompt action in this matter.” At the last meeting of (h:- Maury Home and ia STONELEIGH COURT Corner L St. lusivo apartments’ se, n few desirable louse keeping and non-housekeeping APARTMENTS.

For his orders already hint that in hundreds —or thousands—of American homes a Reo closed car will constitute the big thrill of Christmas morn. No gift can so completelyex- press though generosity, nor so merit whole-hearted and sustained appreciation. In the whole scheme of useful and unselfish Christmas giv- ing it is the gift supreme. Studied propriety inspires it. For it suggests liberality with- out extravagance,— elegance without ostentation,—deep sincerity without superficial- ity. And remembrance of the gift will be as vivid dur- ing April showers and July sums as during the Christmas snows. The particular suitability of Reo as a Christmas present is based on such important considerations as these: Body Lines,—dignified butde- cidedly modish. Disc wheels and cord tires are standard.
