, some cooperative efforts along these
paths Of procedure.
/ The international ChIdren's school
! Farm league is one of the results of
these ideas
Here is the declaration of purpose:
TO Promote and Unity a Worldwide
Interest in Children's Gardens"
Interest In ChIIdren's Gardens
By assisting in starting chiIdren's
gardens in suitable parks and vacant
BY assisting in starting gardens in
connection with schools until boards
OF education become convinced of their
value and take over their maintenance.
By assisting in starting gardens in
connection with hospitals and institu-
tons for children who are mentally or
physically weak or deficient.
BY urging the employment of teach
ers trained for children's garden work
By establishing a training school for
such teachers.
By exhibiting models and pictures
Of the work for the information of
the public.
BY maintaining a bureau of informa-
ton and advice on how to start and
conduct chldren's gardens; furnishing
lectures, printed matter, photographs
and lantern slides.
No matter how large or small the
number, each child has his or her
own garden, on which he or she does
all the work A new interest and sense
Of responsibility come with ownership
arousing the forces of ambition. and
developing at once the need of prop
erty protection often it is their first
understanding of the rights of prop
erty owners, and this awakening Of
the civic sense of protection is to have
a tremendous influence.
They spread fertilizer, spade, rake,
plant, hoe, water. weed and harvest.
Worthy work well done is always dig
nlfled and the worker dignifies it. The
child must be shown how to do the
work well, arouse his labor saving in
telIlgence, and open his mind to the
forces Of the elements that are serving
his intelligent activity, and he will
never question the dignity of labor
that arouses intelligence and that fills
him with pride over the product
Larger Problems of the Nations
Children's gardens conducted on this
plan have spaces reserved for Tarie-
ues of products grown throughout
the country, so bringing the children
to the larger problems Of the nation
There IS much work to be done in the
garden outside of the chiId's plot Just
as every community has public works
that must be attended to, so the chill
dren must contribute their services
to the general welfare of the whole
OF broom corn, flax, wheat, cotton and
other wonderful plants that are so i'm
portant to the world
To preserve the neatness of the gar
den the children are taught to e Their
stones and trash, load WheeIborrows
and wheel them away. In doing this
and in keepeing in order the paths over
which the load must be wheeled. they

that they may be worth more after

the people must know something about

public matters. and TO respond when
action is taken.
The well being of a nation is not to
be measured by total figures of wealth.
but by the number of individuals who
are doing well. The spread of chill
dren's gardens is TO be a tremendous
force for this individual well being
throughout the land
In an address given few months
ago the secretary of the league said
We have proved that the school
garden Is valuable addition to every
part of the curriculum. 1t is an in
splration to expression and language,
stimulant to study. and furnishes
Material and illustration for every
subject.

FAVE you ever seen a little child,
born and reared in a tenement

Do you realize how many such chill
dren exist in our great cities and
how they are living under as unnatural
conditions as plants growing in a eel

Have you ever wondered as you
went about the >big cities. and saw
acres and acres of unused land, with
in the city limits, 20 whom this land
belonged2
And why it was idle2
Some OF our billionaires became bill
nonaires because this land was allowed
to lie vacant without being taxed to
any extent until 1t rose to a fabulous
price, through the growth of the city.
Now II has come to the minds of
good people that many of these vacant
lots might be untitled for the benefit

PONY
WHIPS BULL DOG
Pony and Dog Owned by General L.
v. Patch Engage in Fierce Com
bat New Years Day-Pony Comes
of Victor.

On Now Years Day rather a unique
battle took place at the home o.
General L. V. Patch on Payette
Heights and those who Witnessed II
claim It was the fastest and mos
furious battle of any kind they have
ever witnessed. The principals in
this fight were the big English bal
dog owned by the General and the
little sorrel Shetland pony which
his boys lay claim to.
The pony was led into the portion
Of the barn where the dog was chain
ed to be watered and when quite
near it its presence seemed to anger
the big bulldog who began lunging
on his collar with the result that
it broke and he hurled himself at
the pony who striking out furiously
with both front and hind feet sought
70 defend himself. So fast and furi-
Gus did the two animals fight that
it was impossible for those witnessing
the affair to get hold of either an
imal without the risk of getting one
of the pony's feet connected with
their own anatomy. For thirty min
utes the two animals fought finally
working their way out of the barn
and down the street as far as the
new city park where their owner
General Patch who had been hurried
ly summoned by phone came upon
the scene. At this time the dog
was keeping up a brave stand but
was almost all in being covered with
blood and gashes caused by the sharp
little hoofs of his adversary who ap-
parently had suffered no great harm
bruise or two on the throat and
some injury to his tail being all the
marks on it. By seizing the bull dog
who being weak from loss of blood
was quite easily held General Patch
was able to separate the two ami
mails.
The dog is a large powerful En-
glish bull and weighs about 100
pounds and when in good condition
is much more than one man can
handle alone and his strength is
such that it requires very heavy
chain to hold him. An idea of his
strength can be giSen when it is
known that in getting to the pony in
the start he burs,ed a thick two
inch leather collar.

The bride was gowned in a beau
tiful creation Of white chiffon over
silk and the groom wore the con-
ventional black.
After the ceremony the fourteen
guests present sat down to a beau

joyed a sumptuous wedding break
fast. The place cards at the table
were dainty little cupids done in
water colors.
The bride came to Payette about
fourteen months ago and since com
ing to Payette has won for herself
a host Of warm friends by her charm
ing personality. The groom is a
Payette man Of many years resi-
dence. He is one of Payette's sub
stantial business men being the
