To pay the grocer for his butter
I had to soak my Tyre; my war
like breast was all a-futter with
forty kinds of ire. l quoted pas
sages from Dante, in my profound
despair, and said I'd wreck the
grocer's shanty, and pull the
grocer's hair. And then l heard
that merchant mutter, Cool
down. cool down, my son! | wish
that l could sell you butter at so
cents the ton. For l get tired of
hearing kickers who snort around
and swear; I'm weary of the man
who bickers and howls and paws
the air. The G Ger, friend, is in
no danger of salting wealth away;
it is the horny handed granger
who's getting rich today" Then
] cast down my martial armor,
my shotgun and my sword, and
said, eff this thing helps the far
mer, I'm sorry that | roared.
When | was young and full OF
yearning for manhood to begin, l
used to do the weekly churning
and bring the hen-fruit in. And
so I'll make no further splutter,
no more III rant around; for I'm
aware that country butter is
worth two bones a pound"

Forty Training Schemes.

The principal topic of discussion viii
be on the subject of co-ordinating the
country's various plans to advance the
cause of preparedness. There are
forty distinct schemes for universal
military training" said a member of
one of the organizations today, land
the fact that there is no definite plan
of advance is holding back the general
cause. What we will want is a scien-
tif1c and complete preparedness pro-
gram, but as we are now working for
1t we have no head and no general
plan. The conference probably will
bring big results"
Although the Navy League is not the
sponsor for the conference, the Offices
OF that organization have been used to
send out notices of the conference.

AIMS PROMOTE STUDY
Of CH|LDREN'S PROBLEMS
Juvenile Protection Association Out
lines Purposes of Recently Form
ed Organization.

To organize and coordinate the COM
munity's effort toward the prevention
of delinquency and dependency among
children and particularly to render
friendly and helpful service to children
who are in danger of being brought be-
fore the court, who are on probation, or
released by the court from probation.
are the principal objects of the Juvenile
Protection Association recently formed
and about to begin its work.
The association intends to promote
the study of child problems; to create
public sentiment for the establishment
of wholesale recreation; to attempt to
suppress conditions, and to bring about
the prosecution of persons, contrtbut-
ing to the dependency and delinquency,
and generally to promote the welfare
of children.
1t is stated it is hoped that the or
ganization may be the representative
of the communitys interest and effort
in the objects stated, yet. it Is said, 1t
should in no way interfere with or en-
croach upon the work now being done
by any other club or organization.
Plan of Organization.
The plan determined upon contem-
plates acceptance of the many proffers
of volunteer service and the most ef-
fective use of such volunteers under the
supervision of an executive secretary,
who shall be an intelligent, thoroughly
trained and experienced social worker.
II is declared the growth of the asso-
citation will depend upon the demand
for its services-that is, its expansion
will be limited only by the needs of
the children and the extent of the sup
port from the people of the District.
1t is proposed that the Offices of the
association be, in the beginning, To-
Gated in the Juvenile Court, in order
that there may be the closest co-opera-
tion between the association and the
probation department of the court.
1t is said the active work of the or
ganization will not begin until the di-
rectors are assured of sufficient funds
to support the organization for two
years. 1t is estimated that to cover the
expenses for the first two years s2.500
for each year will have to be raised to
pay the salary of a competent executive
secretary and minor items of expense
including clerical assistance, stationery
printing, postage, etc.
