Spokane, Wash, Aug. lS.-Judge

BOY SCOUTS PATROL.
Many Factories Throughout Country
 Have Organizations.

Many Boy Scout patrols have been organized in factories throughout the country. The principles of the Boy Scout activities have impressed the owners of factories to such an ex- tent that they wish to see the Boy Scout movement started among the boys whom they employ. They ap- preciate the fact that the boy who must work for his own living is de. priyed of many educational advantag- es and does not bave the opportuniry Tor fun that other boys have. They realize also. that such boy often does not have uplifting surroundings.
 For these reasons they feel sure that the Boy Scout movement can he great help to the boys in their factories. Many factoriy owners have written to the Boy Scouts of Amer. lea asking information as to the for- nation of the troops and saying they wished to have organizations started They have said that they believe the Scout movement teaches the boy to be more manly; more self-isnant; and gives him ability to think for In answer to these re- quests it is quite likely that when the field Secretaries start in the fall there will be many factories and help n tne organization of Boy Scout control.

Drought Warming Issued.

Columbia, Mo-, June lO.-This
piece of advice was issued to-day to
the farmers of Missouri from the
office Of the State Board Of Agricul.
ture:
"Serious drought is threatened.
All that can be done is to cultivate
frequently and persistently. Shallow,
level cultivation should be performed
once. a week, if possible. This done,
crop will follow, with very little
rain, but, cultivation neglected, in the
event of little rain, certain crop fail
ure must result"
! F. H. Damaree of the agonomy de-
partment of the university said:
II am not stating theory but a
fact. Surface cultivation is salvation.
Get out and pillow in the dust. Keep
on blowing. You will have corn
when other fields are burned up and
blown away. No matter how bad a
drought there is. This has been tried
repeatedly and with success.
Speaking of the crop outlook, T. C.
Wilson, secretary of the State Board
of Agriculture, said:
THE history of farming in Missouri
will bear outthe old adage: 'Adry June
for good corn CROP While this is
true and recognized the State over, it
is fact that just as soon as the
ground gets dry at this time of the
year the people become alarmed and
begin to pray for rain.
1.-THE present condition of the corn
crop is in every way highly salts
factory, and the promise for an
abundant yield, provided there is suf-
ficient rain during the latter part of
this month and in July and August.
My own recollection is quite clear
that all of our great corn crops have
come in years when at this stage of
the corn growth the whole country
was alarmed because of the heat and
drOuth,'

BATES COUNTY SCHOOLS
AND TEACHERS

By Supt. P. NJ. Allison.
Last week was spent in jefferson
City attending the County Superin-
tendents Convention. The attend
ance was good and a very interesting
and profitable meeting was held.
Many points of law were discussed
and the really interesting sessions
We're the round table discussions
when each and every one was per-
mitted to give expression to his or
her opinions.
The new attendance law is in many
respects better than formerly. Each
district clerk is required to furnish
the teacher with an enumeration list
of the pupils of the district at the be-
ginning of school and the teacher is
then required to report all between
the ages of 8 and Is years of age who
are not in school and the clerk is to
report these to the county superin-
tendent with the evidence in the case
and the superintendent is to make
report of this to the prosecuting at
torney who institutes proceedings
against the parents or guardians.
The last enumeration and estimate
was received this morning and placed
on file in the county clerks office.
This, of course, should have been at
ended to sooner but they thought best
not to, so we start anew with all good
wishes for them.
The next teachers examination will
be held at the West School building
in Butler, June 1924. The order of
subjects will be as follows and not
given at any other time during the
examination:

The Butler weekly times. (Butler, Mo.) 1881-1918, 1911-06-15

suggest that teachers who are
compelled to take the examination
this year begin their work in June
and not wait until August as the work
is becoming more difficult each time
and some may lose out by waiting too
long. The law entities each one to
use two examinations and | am very
sure it will be best to begin this in
June.
Quite few district clerks records
have been inspected this week and
most Of them are in good condition.
One especially good was that of C. E.
Fri in Elkhart township. He has just
secured new book and has brought
forward the more important facts
from the old record and placed them
in The new. One thing our clerks
are most careless about is the re-
cording of the meetings of the
school board.
Dixie school house in East Boone
township is being remodeled and put
in readiness for school this fall. They
have concluded that a poor building
with poor or no equipment is false
economy and are not going to practice
# longer and best of all they are
going to be ready in time.
Maple Grove in West Boone town.
ship is making their house better and
they are getting ready for school this
fall. lam sure this is good indica-
ton of good school spirit. Where
the board waits until school begins or
puts school off for a week or more in
order to repair the house it is sure to
have serious effect on the school
work.
am going to suggest to teachers
who will hold first grade county GER
tificates that expire either this or next
year come in and take one or more
subjects in June and August in order
that they may extend their certificates
until 1914. All certificates that are
granted prior to 1912 are not subject
to renewal unless the teacher con-
tinues in the same position and has
taught five years. By. taking one
subject, say elementary agriculture,
you will receive a new certificate
which will be good for three years,
and l am quite sure. the Legislature
will do something in this time to re-
lieve the situation some.

SAVES LIFE OF
HARTFORD GIRL

Geranl Dowen. chauffeur for Will
liam f. TAFT. vice president Of the
TAFT & Sons Paper Company. saved
the life of a drowning girl at Hart
ford yesterday afternoon. by meth
cd as unique and remarkable as it
was Cuick-witted.
Dowen. whose home is at zoos Main
street. is temporarily working as
chauffeur for Hartford man. Yes
car past the Burnside reservoir in
East Hartford he was startled by
cries for help.
Stopping his car. he ran to the reser-
voir and saw that Miss Catherine
Cooley. of East Hartford had skated
into the raceWay and was struggling
to keep herself afloat. She grasped
the thin edges of ice. which broke re-
peatedly
The other skaters were SO excited
that they could form no plan of res
cue but shouted to the despairing
girl to do her best to keep afloat.
i Dowen raced to his car and ran back
with a partially inflated tire and two
automobile robes.
Crawling carefully out on the ice
he tossed the tire to the drowning
girl. Selling this. she was enabled to
keep af1oat until Dowen managed to
slide the longest of the automobile
robes within her grasp. She was then
pulled ashore. If she survives the icy
bath wi lhout contracting pneumonia,
she will recover in a few days. ac-
cording to her physician. ~
He will return to Bird geport shortly.

whom he has been employed for some
time
