other industry and they are willing to
get the farmers started In that direc.
ton as soon as possible and on the
right track at the outset With the
abandonment Of the old one crop sys.

the creamery began to grade cream
and pay bonus for sweet, high.grade
cream the shipments from Medina fell
to less than 20 cans q month.

The directors of the Playground
Association of America and The sec.

tiosn throughout the country have
taken up the Boy Scout movement
because they find it a great help.
They look upon the Scout activities
as means of Interesting the boys in

away from civil influences. Many
secretaries have written to James 2.
West, executive secretary of the Boy
Scouts of America telling them OF
their interest in the Scout movement
and how they use the Scout activities.
E. B. De Groot, general director OF
Field Houses and Fairgrounds in Chi
cago, says that he is utilizing the
Scout activities in that city and has
been active in the organization OF
several Scout troops. He says in a
letter to Secretary West: "As a group
Of Playground workers, we look upon
the Scout programme as a good sup
Elementary elemnt to inject into our
playground work. We receive 1t as
inst so much material which may be
used as we now use basketball, track
athletics and wrestling"
