Mrs. Roger Adams is a real tough purchasing agent
...for her family. Every year she spends several
thousands of dollars for groceries, clothes, housing
and a host of incidentals. Among the incidentals is
her telephone bill which costs her all of about
$9.00 a month. Economy-minded as she is, Mrs.
Adams can tell you that her telephone is probably
the biggest bargain in her budget.

In a few weeks, some 17
million children will be go
ing to school. Unless your
school provides a physical
checkup for all pupils, this
is a good time for you to ar
range for such an examina
tion. It is especially impor
tant that the vision and hear
ing be checked because any
deficiency in these functions
can make school a night
mare for your child and
might even make a pupil
with normal intelligence ap
pear to be mentally retarded.
It is important, too, to
make sure your child has
had all the immunizing shots
and boosters he should have.
If he expects to go out for
vigorous sports, a doctor’s
certificate may be required.
In any case, you should get
your doctor’s O.K. before
letting him participate in
football, baseball, basket
ball or hockey.
THE WELL CHILD®
Preschool Checkup
Is Wise Move for Child
By WAYNE G. BRANDSTADT, M.D.
If this will be your child’s
first year in school, it is es
sential that he be reassured
that you are not trying to
get nd of him and that you
still love him very much but
that school attendance is a
part of growing up so “he
can be smart like daddy.”
If your child is to ride a
school bus he must be taught
to obey the rules designed
for his safety. He should
leave home in time to allow
four or five minutes before
the bus arrives. While wait
ing for the bus, he should
stay back from the street
and not indulge in horseplay
with the other children. On
the bus, loud shouting and
roughhousing are out as they
distract the driver. All talk
ing should stop when the bus
approaches a railroad cross
ing so the driver can listen
for a train. Your child
should keep his books and
packages on his lap or on
the floor under his seat—
never in the aisle. He should
never put his head or hand
out the window. He should
not tamper with the first-aid
kit, emergency doors or oth
er bus equipment and he
should get off the bus quickly
without crowding or pushing.
Q—Please recommend a
good book I could give my
son, 13, explaining his de
veloping sexuality.
