Flower Parades.

Dear RegiSter-A writer in the last
issue signing himself ''Oleander" con-
tributed some remarks on Flower Pa
rades. He will pardon me if l take the
liberty of suggesting to him that
among the ''glittering ge~neralities" of
his article, l can find few. if any, help
full plans for one who has never seen
such a pageant. If l might be permit
ted to add my little mite to the discus
sion l would advise NO RESTRICTIONS as
to the parade-just simply let each
owner of a vehicle devise and use what
method and materials he or she may
command, and so add to the diversity
as well as to the total beauty of the pa
rade. OF course in such a case we will
moi have sea shells, chariots and other
poetic creations, such as ''Oleander" is
rather inclined to rhapsodize over
and which are scarcely possible any
where but in California or southern
italy where flowers abound. No, let
US have a parade of bunting and other
honest American decorative stun-pa-
per flowers, if you will, (they certainly
viii not wither) old glory in its nu-
m0FOuc OEL1S ddo OIL Lax OaSAS tudl
can be laid on the altar of patriotism.
While we live in an Iron county, and
town, we do not care to be iron bound
by restrictions such as 'sOleander" has
d~elicately limited at.
There are color values in bunting
and cheese cloth as well as in damask
roses. and a little taste, patience and
skill can transform very homely mate
rails into things OF beauty.
To be sure ssOleander's' idea may
thus be somewhat elaborated and the
parade become a popular one, by and
for the people. Good gracious! Let US
have it then, that wdy, for the 4th OF
July is all we have left of a tradition
that the people God bless 'emD were
once sovereign In this land.
Isay. bring on your vehicles-be
they automobiles Dr. the old farm wag-

Ed. RegiSter-Since my last letter to
the REGISTER, nothing of particular in
terest has trauspired in this immediate
locality.
The drouth. of which l made men
ton some time ago, still holds on with
a grip eve before equaled in this
Valley. While many localities appear
to have had copious showers during
the past two or three weeks, we have
not yet had sufficient rain to thorough
ly lay the dust, since early in April.
Oats and meadows are now ruined;
while corn in many places is actually
dead, and apples, peaches, plums and
pears are dropping from the trees
But should We get rain within the next
ten days, there will be a chance for
corn IN most places.
The Institute is progressing fairly
well, and in view of the fact hat the

the teachers have not read, many
teachers are not taking the interest in

have taken.
In Pedagogy. particularly, there is
no ssroyal road; and the teachers
actual experience should count more
than any list of questions and answers
based solely on a textbook of theory.
