HEALTH DRILL — Staged by third grade classes, centered around the teeth, which were represented by eight pupils. Shirley Sands and Orquidia Fernandez led the “builders of strong teeth” in the drill. Eight other pupils represented tooth- brushes, demonstrating’ how to clean teeth very thorough!

Another widespread notion is that our climate approximates that of French Equatorial Africa and that white people can live here ly during certain months oft r because of the unbear- able heat that prevails the bal- ance @f the year. If word filters in here that Key West.is a jungle of dangerous and almost impenertrable tropical guewths, it is all my fault, be- cause once, several weeks ago,! after I had listened to a woman giving some other women a great mass"0f misinformation about Key West, (she had never been south of Asbury Park, New Jersey, in her life), I interrupted to say acidly. “Qh,-yes, when we return from the ¥nountains every year after the awful rainy season we have to cut our way with machetes through jungle vegetation to get | to our houses. Mostly these growths are the tropical plants that wind their tendrils around a man and then strangle him to death slowly and horribly. Once inside the house, we have to dis- lodge the cobras, black mambas and pythons that have taken up residence in our absence, and of course ,we always have +o sleep with our guns beside our beds so | that we are preppared to deali with‘any wild animals that might} wander into town from the Keys.” This: poppycock brought forth nogs of understanding from my listentrs, and clucks of sympathy that Fate has dealt me such a nasty blow by forcing me to spend the rést of my life in such fright- ful surroundings. Their attitudes suggested that maybe, due to the tropical hazards, my life would be mercifully short, which was the only cheerful thing they could ‘heir looks also told me that der Fitzgerald, guest Reservations must be at 6 p. m.
