training in any particular line, writes
Window Denison In the Chicago Tri-

in the world to make his fortune with
out any definite idea of how he is
going to make it realizes what he is
up against the moment he strikes a
cold, strange city.
l went west as hundreds Of other
boys have done, thinking that because
the sun set in that direction every
thing would be sure to be soft. OF
course / expected to work, but ! ex-
pected the wages would be big and
that congenial employment would be
easy to secure. Well, 1t was the best
experience l could have had.
At the end of a few weeks and when
l had gotten to that stage where /
was glad to scrub, a restaurant floor
for meal, l began to take a sober
view of life, l can tell you. Why,
wasn't even able to carry few dishes
on my arm and wait tables in one of
those restaurants. finally 'bummed'
it back home, swallowed my pride,
and begged the boss of the local
plumbing shop to let me work for
nothing until / could learn the trade.
The fellows around town roasted me
somewhat because l had come back,
but said nothing and kept right on
that plumbing work. Two years Later
l went west again to big city that
had struck my fancy and had no trou-
BILE in getting good Job at my trade.
My being able to do some one thing
made all the difference In the world.

Over 5000 boys are enlisted in corn and
wheat contests. These boys are on the
road to Washington, in more ways than
one. Every citizen should encourage
them to stay in the game to the end.
These youngsters will do more to raise
the average crop yield in Ohio than any
other agency. One contest acre inocu-
lates the whole community. The old
crouch will kick about it. The up-to-
date, progressive farmer will boost it, but
all the time the question of better farm
ing and better methods will be cussed
and discussed. This is the thing needed
and desired. The old neighborhood
kicker is doing good without knowing it.
There ought to be more of him. He is
growing scarcer every day. Every boy
entered ought to be complimented for
having the courage to enter the fight.
Every boy is hungry for little attention
and notice. Public spirited business
men and citizens have guaranteed $40,
900 in volunteer subscriptions to encour-
age the boy in the corn field. Not in the
history of the world has this splendid ex-
ample been equalled.
