n. P. Anti-Noise Crusade

Approaching the fact that un.
necessary noise around trains
and particularly sleeping cars,
should be '''cut OUT at night, so
as TO avoid disturbing the rest
and nerves Of passengers, the
Northern Pacific Railway has
started an anti-crusade.
Loud talk. ringing of engine
bells, sounding of whistles,
blowing off Of steam. and other
noises are to be avoided and re-
duced to a minimum, and coup
ling cars, setting out or picking
up cars. ETC.. are to be controll-
ed by signals and done as silent
" as possible.
Instructions have beer sent
out from headquarters to train
men, station agents, ETC., to
bear these facts in mind con-
stantly and reduce all avoidable
noise and talk to the lowest lim-
it's.
The public that travels will
certainly appreciate these ef-
forts on the part Of the ''Old

begin to deteriorate after the first
year unless growing conditions are
such that extraordinary advantages
can be afforded in cultivation. The
late varieties should be taken I'D
every three or four years just be-
fore the flowers go to seed. Bulbs
should be planted in the late fall
preferably. Lilies and tulips should
be separated in the fall and trans
planted Immediately. Petunias, ver-
benia, stalks, phlox, peoples, balsam,
asters of all kinds, candytuft, lark
spur (double) mignionette, sweet
peas, pinks, carnations and a very
large variety of flowers such as
commonly grown can be raised here
in abundance. Sweet peas and roses
thrive here readily. There are some
flowers that do not bloom here I'M
til the second year such as Sweet
William, Canterbury bells, column
bine, Glove pinks, etc. Climbing
roses for many months in the year
are visible in every part of the val
ley and need but slight attention.
All kinds Of shrubs do wei in this
soil. The towns of the valley offer
encouragement and protection to
flower growers in this valley and
penalties are imposed on persons
who permit chickens or live stock to
do damage to the flower gardens.
Flowers of certain kinds can be
grown here all the year and there is
nothing that adds such beauty to the
homes in the valley as do the
variegated colors and sweet fragrant
odors rising from the flower beds
surrounding the many residences in
this section"

The School System.

Box Elder was consolidated into
one school district in 1907 and is un.
der the direction of board of edu
cation Of five members, one from
each of the five representative pre-.
cincts. Board members are elected
on non-partizan basis, and with
special reference to their fitness as
leading citizens in the building up of
our educational system. They are
therefore free to act without fear or
favor for the best interest OF the
whole district as well as for each
subdivision thereof Other officers
OF the board are the clerk and the
treasurer.
The supervising force consists of
the county, superintendent, primary
supervisor, music supervisor art and
sewing supervisor and a supervisor of
agriculture. These supervisors spend
their time and energies in the sup.
ervision, direction and inspection OF
WV WIN VI llt val lOuS StuOOlS
throughout the county.
The supervisor of agriculture will
spend his summer months among the
various organized boys agricultural
clubs throughout the district, hold.
ing meetings with the boys and their
fathers, giving expert assistance in
actual field work in the cultivation
of the various farm products and
stimulating an interest in the boys.
the future farmers Of our valley,
in scientific agriculture. When
these valleys of ours become crowd.
ed with the thousands of foreigners
who will seek homes here when the
tide of immigration is turned west
ward through the opening of the
Panama canal, we do not want our
boys to become their "hewers of
wood and drawers of water" but, on
the contrary, they must be so well
versed in the arts of agriculture that
they will be in position to direct
to the best advantage the efforts OF
those who seek homes and employ
ment among us.

The faculty is unexcelled in any

and the nature and quality of work
done is of the highest grade. With
the generous assistance given by the
board of education in the way of
transportation to and from school,
we see no good reason why a good
high school training should not be-
come the birthright Of every boy and
girl in the Bear River valley.

teal activities in witch thov will be
engaged throu Our boys are
studying agriculture, horticulture,
stock raising and kindred subjects.
They are organized into agricultural
clubs which have for their purpose
the stimulation of interest in agri-
cultural pursuits and the develop.
ments of ideas and ideals which will
have tendancy to keep the boy on
the farm because of the uneXceled
possibilities found there. The fac.
tories of the Bear River valley have
been very generous in their attitude
toward these clubs, aiding us both
IN the way of cash prizes for beet
and tomato crops, and in giving con.
siderable assistance in actual field
work to those of our boys who
have entered the clubs and taken an
active interest in the cultivation of
these crops.
The differentiation in work of the
upper grades has resulted in the
girls of these grades taking sew
ing, and in few of the schools
cooking has been introduced The
sewing is done in school, under the
direction of competent teachers and
in harmony with a carefully outlined
course of work. The theoretical
work In cooking Is taken in school,
meetings are held with the girls and
their mothers, and the practical part
Ia carried on in the home kitchen.
These various activities Of prac-
tical nature are cementing the in
terests of home and school in such
a way as to make for unity of effort
an close sympathetic cooperation in
all of life's activities. Home work
is finding it's Interpretation in school,
and school work is finding it's appli-
cation in home and life.
Nor are we neglecting the ideal
side of life. The power of apprecia-
ton Of art and music is coming to be
the common possession of all our
boys and girls, and the boundless
stores of literary treasures are daily
brought to their attention in the
study of reading, literature, language
and history. Fortunate indeed are
the boys and girls who enjoy the
unexcelled educational facilities found
in the Bear River valley.

the beginners grade and hereafter
the course of study will be covered
in eight years instead of in nine as
