Miss Lucile Brewer, food specialist, Miss Doris Schumaker, clothing spec- ialist. Miss Flora Thurston, nutrition specialist, and Miss Reynolds, also of 'the department of foods and nutrition at the State, College of Home Econo- mics, were present and outli.ied plans; of work, They also answered many questions in regard to their various, speclalitcs, Dr. Johnson, health offi- cer, of Newark, also made a brief ad- dress, calling upon the Women to aid in sanitation and general health work in the county. A fine exhibit of the-sewing done by the Women in their clothing: le..4.»n^ during the winter and spring Was dis- played about the hall and attracted much attention, - Next year the general plan of work in the county will be to carry on the work in clothing, that seeming to be a very genera] demand from all: sections; of the county. In addition there will be a strong effort made to carry for- ward a health and nutrition profratn, correllating, as far as possibls, the work of all the various health agencies: of the county. It was voted to invltef the Red Cross, the county nurses, the. town health officers, the medical ex-*' amifters of the schools, the physical training teachers, and the parents of the county to co-operate in making the\ program next year the most beneficial possible, Each organization will be asked to appoint members of a general county committee to have this woik in hand, and 'the Board of Supervise u also will be asked' to appoint one of their members to serve on the commit- tee, as a considerable amount of con 1- -y money is annually expended for the various liftes of health work in tl e county, and it is felt by the wome'i that a correllated program will enab'e this money to be expended: in the most beneficial way, doing away as far as possible with duplication of effort, and strengthening the weak spots in the county health program. _' At present the Red Cross and th 1 Hoftie Economics Bureau are^o-operat- ing in arrangements for a course in nursing, to be given by a trained nurse In the various communities in Wayne eouftty requesting it, which is one bie; step in the allied program.

Mary had a low-necked dress which: firied to perfection, and wore it' eyery- wheres I guess, \against her Ma's ob- jection. She also had an auto car, Which likely made her dizzy—she couldn't seem to go nowher&Jwithout the doggone Lizzy, Shepmptored; through the chill night.air, without re- ,gard to seasons. She didn't have no brains to Spare, and never Stopped to reason. At last she got a sneeze an' cough, Which driv her to a frenzy. The doctor which they called right off, pro^, nduiicedit inflnenzy!! They put her in her little bedi while; pangs of anguish filled her;' The blasted germs flew ten her head, and .mighty nearly killed her. But still the dpctor lingered near, until he got 'em .busted, and Mary's, low-necked dress,: I hear, has made him plumb disgusted.
