Health Week.
Health week begins March
30th. No school is discharging
its full duty in preparing boys

neglects to emphasize a health
program. , The program may
be summed up as follows: eat
the proper amount of nourish-
ing food, breathe all the fresh!
air possible; take regular dai-
ly exercise; get sufficient
sleep; keep clean; be regular
in your habits; be temperate;
wear the proper clothing.
