"In farm advertising like all other

MUST LOOK TO THE FUTURE
New Law In Massachusetts Makes the
Proper Planning of All Towns
Compulsory.

The last legislature of Massachu'
sets, by two brief acts, made clt'
planning compulsory for every town
OF more than 10000 population and for
every city large measure OF nome
rule is provided by the law, since the
local governing bodies-city councils,
commissions or town meetings-Wll
determine the number OF members in
each board, the rate OF payment Tor
services and expenses and other al
ministrative details. Statewide unity
will be given to the work by the SUI
stead commission.
Under the law the first task given
the local boards is to make compre-
hensive study Of the resources, posi-,
bilities and needs Of the community.
This provision means that In the
course of comparatively brief time
each city and town affected by the law
will make an adequate social survey.
City planning under the Massachu'
sets law is a very human thing. First
emphasis is laid upon the ordering OF
the municipal activities both public
and private, so that the health and
welfare of the individual Will be con
served All city planning, of course,
has this human end for its ultimate
aim. The Massachusetts law makes
this human end not only ultimate but
immediate.

Its Memory Lingers Within tho
Hearts of Many.

There are some today who can
look back with warm emotion to the
life of the quaint red school houses
which once dotted the country. A
few of these one-room halls of learn
ing still stand here and there, Just
off the dusty roadways or behind
miniature Alps in snow according to
the season Many prominent men
and women profited by the training
Of these picturesque educational in
situations. Here we were taught the
three Rs and the rudiments of other
branches. The masters formed the
young minds entrusted to their care
with the aid of the birch rod, the
Ounce cap and other primitive equip
ment. The science of pedagogics or
the period was largely based upon the
principle that ito spare the rod was
to spoil the child" 1t was the day
Of singing geography and the spell
ing bee. Handwriting and literary
style were formed upon the old
fashioned school slate. Long before
the days of hygienic equipment the
water supply consisted of pail from
which all helped themselves with the
same dippor.
The modern school Is a vast ad.
vance over the methods that were EN-.
ployed in the little red school. And
yet the wider use of the school

ter of community activity for civic
welfare. is only the development after
all of the educational system which
had its first expression in that same
small, one-room, poorly equipped, UNI

school house.-Christian Herald.
