The day was an ideal one for a lively con test, being neither too warm for tne nlavere nor too cold for the spectators who by tne way iormea me largesi crowd that nas witnessed a rootoaii game in West pittston this year. They were euulppea witn an tne noisemax ers imaginable, in connection with a multitude of strong throats, which were let loose at every gam ox tne Jiigh school. As the crowds in the past have refused to keep back from the lines, the services of two mem bers of the state constabulary were secured for Saturday afternoon, which assured plenty of room for the contestants. The whole game was fast and interesting in every move, but the one reason that might be assigned for the loss of the game by the home team, was the lack of prac tice and not enough team work.

The Individual plays were good and if the whole team worked together in li similar manner Hazleton would have been wiped off the field. The work of the back field was poor in some re spects, as they muffed several punts AiuiKey caugni two punts, one on a bounce and made several good runs. Painter played a good game in block ng and getting down under punts. Johnson also did some sood tackling. In advancing the ball Sevan was ex cellent arid he also made several good runs.

The child enterine school tnr tho first time, having lived a life of more or less boisterous freed nm. rnmp un der changed conditions. The phvsical activities are being subdued, the intellectual awakened to be trained. Good health, which was so easily maintained, is now beset with a multitude of nemfes. Physical restrai nt: crnwrlpfl usually overcrowded, school rooms; poor ventilation alas, often nnno at all exposure to infectious conditions from the bodies of othe children, all conspire to injure the physical well being of the child.

The Stlldy Of DhVSioloev In tho niih. lie schools has come to occupy a very important place in the curriculum Through it, says School Hygiene, the child gets his first knowledge of the ooily, its structure and funrtlnns. Tho simplest rules of personal hveiene must be made the imDortant nart nt this study. The safeguarding of the health of the. school child can be accomplished only when there is intelli gent co operation of children, parents and the school authorities.

To ohtain this co operation there must be some knowledge of hygiene and this is possible only through the studv of phvsi ology. This is a required study in the nuh ic schools of 'many states. Unfortu nately it is not a very interesting study to most children, or at least It is not made interesting. So much time and space have to be given t6 the evil ffects of alcohol and tobacco that the child wonders what it is all about, and at the end has little more than a confused idea that physiology, alcohol and tobacco are in some way closely allied. Yet physiology can be made interesting as well as valuable to the child.

A class of '40 boys averaging 10 lears of age was having a recitation on the physiology of digestion. The use of Oie teeth, mouth, saliva and gastric juice were considered and the answers given showed the results of good teaching, but when the exercise was over there was left the feeling of incompleteness. What had the bovs gained that was useful? Some knowl edge of the processes of digestion. But how were they to make use of this knowledge? So far it was a treneral knpwledfie only. Could any part of it be made personal Why, yes, the part tne teetn play in the process of dl gestion might be made personal.

Ques tions wre.then aaked concerning the vaiue 01 tne teetiv. What would hap pen 11 mere were too rew teeth or none at all? What caused a loss of teeth? What Were the evil results of rotten teeth? The boys were eager to answer these questions, edged out of seats, Waved nanas rranticauy, scowled at wrong enswers, and when called upon to answer stood erect by the desk and proudly gave what they considered correct answers. To the final questions, "How many of you boys have cleaned your teeth this morning?" there was but one response. One boy in a class of 40 had cleaned his teeth thaU morning. The other boys sat dejectedly in their seats, ashamed.

Further questioning showed that more than one half of beys made no use of the tooth brush at all, the others only occasionally. If the study of physiology were made more personal fn its application, if less attention were given to the evils of alcohol and. tobacco, whioh children use not at all, and the time thus spent were given to the study of personal hygiene made simple and attractive, an interest in physical, development ajnd the care of the body' for the joys it would bring, would take' the dace of the present apathy. xr fear of ir Fountain pens afifl brass, Barry's.

as they did when they put the light out. On this occasion four of the trunk flshes there "are eight or ten of them altogether in the tank assembled under the gas jet and spurted water at it. The other trunkflshes continued their ramblings here and there around the tank, but these four stayed and iapurted water at the light as four boys might stay 'under an apple tree and throw sticks and stones at the apples on its branches while, the rest of the boys played around the field. And when the four trunkflshes stayed spurting water at the gas jet, It is not to be supposed that they knew what 'the gas flame was or what mieht hanDen if thev hit'tt, but that's what they did.

The trunkfish is a queer creature having a body triangular in shape and an odd little round mouth that would just about admit a good sized lead pencil. From its curious little mputh the trunkfish spurts in a little column as long and big as a' lead pencil, and it can spurt water In this way to a height or distance of fifteen or eighteen inches. There is a little tropical fish called the archer fish which shoots water in this manner, directing its stream against the insect that might be clinging to an overhanging leaf, causing the insect to fall off to become the archer fish's prey. Perhaps nature gave the trunkfish this power for the same purpose. The Aquarium trunkflshes are very tame.
