Make the Home More Attractive

People wonder why the boys want
To leave the farm and try THAR for
tune in the city. There is little won
der when the matter is looked into
Too little effort is made to make the
homes from which the boys run
away, attractive. The almighty
dollar too often gets in the way.
Boys are not wild animals. They
do not need pounding because they
do not do thedr work as well as old
er persons. One trouble is that many
farmers have tco much too say
about big "I' in talking 10 their
boys. Why not say We ars ours, in
talking about the stock or farm, and
encourage the boys to do the same?
They Will learn to take an interest.
Subscribe for a paper in tn ,ir nam'e,

vegetables or stock, LIT him take it

own nams. and If they chance 10 got
pr mium, let thfm have it TO do as
they please with it. Boys like
little fun now and then. When they
try to havs a little sport, don't scold
or growl. put in a word yourself.
In short live with your boys A
httle fun and good nature win go
far toward turning work into play.

ONE BLOCK
Of West Vine Street May Be
Paved
With Blocks Taken From
East High Street

For some time the city solicitor and
service director have been considering
what can be done with the asphalt
blocks which are to be removed from
East High street between the public
square and Gay street. The blocks
will be taken up in the spring and
different kind of brick laid in their
places. The matter of re-laying the
blocks on some side street near the
center of the city has been consider
ed and the most favorable point seems
to be on West Vine street between
Main and Mulberry streets. The
amount of bricks taken from East
High street will be just about suffic-
lent to pave that section Divine street
according to the estimates of the city
engineer and there is no street in any
section of the city that is more in
need of just that kind of Improvement

"A law was passed by the general

Not less than 35 per cent and not
more than so per cent to be paid by
the county; not less than 25 per cent
and not more than 40 per cent by the
township, and not less than 20 per
cent and not more than 35 per cent by
the owners of the real estate lying
within one mile from either side and
