children. Accordingly the Oklahoma
Public Health Association is urging
the placing of scales in every school,
building By watching children's
weights 'the teacher will be able to
determine whether they are receiv-
ing the proper nourishment.
This is only one of the many activ-
.ties of the Oklahoma Public health
association, w*hich is financed large-
ly by the sale of Tuberlosis Christ-
mas seals These fcals will be sold
in - Oklahoma this year from Decem-
ber 1 to 15.
As a means of teaching health
methods direct to children, the asso-
ciation has launched what it calls
The Modern Health Crusade.'
The modern health crusade to use
the words of Mr. Schevitz report, has
been found a practical method of in-
teresting the child in his own health.
By teaching him habits of right liv-
ing in a manner thoroughly enjoya-
ble to him, some important lessons of
life are deeply impressed upon him,
The daily filling out of health chores
with the elements of play and com-
fluence on the child and frequently
petition injected has a profound in-
terest in his parents.

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT WE SELL THE
HIGHEST GRADE FOODSTUFFS OBTAINABLE
TO DO THIS WE MUST BE CONTENT WITH A
SMALLER MARGIN OF PROFIT THAN WE
COULD CHARGE IF THEY COST US LESS
MONEY. WHY DO WE MAKE THIS SACRI-
FICE? HERE'S THE REASON.
ANY DOCTOR WILL TELL YOU THAT
QUALITY FOOD IS MORE EASILY DIGESTED
THAN FOOD OF AN INFERIOR GRADE. IT AL-
SO POSSESSES GREATER HEALTH-GIVING
PROPERTIES.
THAT IS ONLY O^E OF THE REASONS
WHY WE SELL ONLY GROCERIES OF GUAR-
ANTEED QUALITY, AND POSSESSING THE
HIGHEST DEGREE OF NUTRIMENT.
WITHOUT QUALITY THERE CAN BE NO
ECONOMY, AND ECONOMY IS WHAT EVERY
HOUSEWIFE IS LOOKING FOR. SHE FINDS IT
