dorsement by attending during the four

was secured. The purposes of the or
ganization are:
To arouse the community in terms OF
its own welfare, and to stimulate, direct
and unite the people in all proper self

To institute and give impetus to con-
strucuve program for the development
of the open country.

ready a success, the people at Waco

two or three weeks we expect to organ
ize just such community ceniers at
Kirksville, Union, Berea and Kings

that the school can be helped to measure
up to its responsibilities. Some of the
plans are TO map out planting plan for
the school grounds, make out art plans
for interior decorations, show the advan-
tage of directed play, give the funda-
mentals of agriculture, fruit growing.
