A 20TH CENTURY CHILDREN'S
CRUSADE.

The new president of the Women's
City Beautiful Auxiliary of the Cham
Der of Commerce has begun her adj
ministration with vigor, enthusiasm
and a comprehensive schedule that an
nounces as the first number on the
program the determination of the
dandelion. Only those who, in the
height of past seasons, have beheld
lawns, parkings, and even streets fair
ly carpeted with these beautiful but
stubborn and malicious little bios
SONS can comprehend what a stiff
courage it requires to tackle the job
of freeing Moscow of pest that for
long has had tremendous hold.
The work of the auxiliary is con-
cerned in this campaign not with lawns
and other private grounds, but with
streets and alleys, their prime OBJ
ject being to make the thoroughfares
of Moscow absolutely clean and re-
spectacle
The auxiliary has authorized the use
of SIS as payment for sacks of dande-
lions, and it is hoped that $50 sacks
of plants and roots will be offered for
sale next Saturday.
This is a good chance for children
to earn little money in an occupation
which will keep them out of doors.
1t will not take an energetic little
boy or girl long to fill and deliver
number of sacks at the paying sta
ton.
Even though the direct good accom-
plished by the auxiliary in getting rid
of such q quantity of plants before
they have gone to seed may not be by
any means sufficient to stamp them
out, the money to be spent will prove
wise investment if it succeeds in
arousing public sentiment in favor of
an organized effort to check this great
pest

A TALK ABOUT TALK.

A good many otherwise normal and
agreeable people object to parties and
social gatherings of all kinds. 1t is
not because they are misanthropes,
disliking the company of their fell
lows. because those who most detest
what, for lack of better term, we
must designate as society" are genial
and friendly, and most responsive to
the charms of association with their
fellow men.
May not the explanation of this
reluctance to devote much time to
mingling socially with their acquaint-
ances be the unsatisfactory type OF
conversations that prevails at many
social gatherings whether formal or
informal? Talk, which among intelli-
gent beings should be mentally slim
ulating and pleasure giving, is often
extremely vapid and inane. The topics
introduced are often not such as
could either arouse or hold the interest
of lively mind. Personalities speed
lily become tiresome even when they
are reasonably clever, and they are
especially so to intellects trained to
read and think. Yet the converse
ton of many persons during an entire
afternoon or evening is confined to
discussions of their own and their
friends Tor their enemies9 petty con-
Germs, personal habits, tastes, and
preferences. They have no time OF
desire to include any matter outside |
the tiny little circle they move in.
To be vitality interesting and worth !
while, conversation need not Indeed, |
generally should not be heavy and |
profound. But this great world we
live in is wonderfully lively and fas-
cinating world, and tremendous
number of absorbing things are hap
pening in it all the time. 1t is not to
be wondered at that cultivated per-
sons ask that fair share of the talk
be devoted to the larger, more i'm
matters.

Miss Maitland Marshall, daughter of
Brig. Gen. and Mrs. William L. Mar
shall, whose marriage to Paymaster
John H. Knapp, U. S. NJ, will take
place today 1t was feared Miss Mar
shall's wedding would have to be post
poned as the Mayfower, to which Pay
master Knapp is attached, was on
duty in Mexican waters; but Secre-
tary Daniels played Cupid's assistant
and the Mayfiower brought John
Lind home for his conference with the
president Had the wedding been put
off, Miss Wilson probably would not
have been able to serve as Miss Mar
shall's bridesmaid, as it would have
interferred with the preparations for
her own marriage, which will take
place in May. This is the third time
Miss Wilson has officiated in the pos
ition of bridesmaid for her friends, de-
flying the old superstition.

A. LITTLE ARITHMETIC.

Last summer, not having any change
in our pockets to count, we TOOK TO
counting the buds on dandelion plants.
One rather small and insignificant
plant we found with hundred and
twenty-five buds, some of which were
almost buried in the ground. Com
putting the number of seeds that this
one plant, if allowed to grow, would
have scattered, we are inclined to
think that a hundred and fifty sacks
of just such prolific plants would
mean a substantial decrease in the
of blossoms next year.

THE DAWN OF A BETTER DAY.

Almost ever since the university was
has been necessary to expend contin-
| uously a tremendous amount of en-
ergy and skill to preserve the integ-
rity Of the school and to prevent the
segregation of this and that college
from the great whole it was meant 10
be and should be. First one COM
munity and then another has been led
by local interest and pride to urge a
course that would result in sacrifice
of the best interests of the entire state
in order to satisfy the natural but sell
fish demands OF one of its small units.
AS the years go on the people are
of themselves coming to realize the |
absurdity of such a destructive and |
expensive scheme. Those who pay the |
taxes, and not the politicians playing
to their home galleries, are deciding
whether the cost of maintaining one
school can be better borne than the
cost of many. Each year the need of
the wise policy Idaho adopt
ed from the start is growing less;
and the energy, talent, and time for
merly required to prevent disastrous
segregation can now be devoted
