by the Farm School graduate one of
which the school may we'll be proud.
While in school Mr.. Rolen always
distinguished himself as a distance
runner and for three years won the
one mile event in the annual fall
track meet held at the Agricultural
School. He also had the same reput-
alton in his home community. He
was drawn in the first draft from
Clinton and responded with many
of the Farm School boys to the call.
He lives upon one of the finest
farms in Big Stone county where he,
together with two Of his brothers
who have also been Farm School
students, put into practice many of
the improved methods of farming
that they have taken home with
them from the Agricultural School.
On October 27, the students of the
Farm School will hold the annual
Inter-class Track and Field Meet A
complete program of events for both
boys and girls has been arranged
and practice work has been begun.
Mr.. Schweickhard is coaching the
boys and Miss Middleton will coach
the girls for their events.
Field Day is one of the big days
on the school calendar and on that
day a holiday is declared. All classes
are evenly represented and it is diff
ficult to determine what class will
carry away the honors. In the eve
ming a big party and dance is being
arranged to take place in the Girls
DormitOry.
Rev. F. A. Stever will address the
school assembly Saturday. Several
other prominent speakers will also
address the school throughout the
school semester, also series of
health talks by prominent Norris
physicians.
On October 13 Professors Jordan
and Odland and superintendent
Miller attended the Medina Town
ship Fair. Professor Jordan judged
the live stock and Professor OdIand
the farm products. Mr.. Miller gave
brief talk on the farmers part in
the food conservation work. Through
the school a winter lecture course
is also being arranged for this club.
Mr.. WOOdman writes from Fort
Smelling that the Second Officers
Camp is progressing in fine
shape and that all of the men are
enthusiastic about the work. He has
been assigned to one of the heavy
artillery units and finds that his
training in engineering is very valu-
able to him in this new work.
On the evening of October 13, the
Seniors entertained the students and
faculty at an informal dance at the
Girls Dormitory. Every one present
had a very enjoyable time and the
Seniors proved themselves to be most
entertaining hosts. Mr.. Vinje and
1,iaa 7Vatzke furnished the music.
The new dining hall is progress
sing rapidly and in a few days the
concrete foundation will be complet-
ed. Mr.. Haas, the superintendent in

Thorpe turned over a youngsters
letter to the Pioneer Press for pub
lication to show the loyalty of a
small boy to his country. The letter
follows:
Mrs. Thorpe: II was to GIenwood

l heard that little boys could give
their dimes and nickles to the Red
Cross.
Il have saved up dimes and mic
kles for some years and I am sending
all I have, $5.23. I am glad that l
saved them so they will do some good
to the soldiers.
"CAN'T GO YET"
I'VE are seven brothers, of which
three are the right age for war. I
am 13 years old so can't go yet.

ceived their uniforms, but they die
their best to look like soldiers, JUS
the same All the men in battery [
are Wisconsin men and they are splen
did looking fellows. Mr.. Williams ex
pressed his appreciation for the big
send-off which BarabOO gave then
last week. He said that the county
boys were surprised and greatly
pleased, when so many people turned
out.
Coming by the Thousand
Men are coming to the camp by the
thousand, day by day. Rockford gave
her own boys-nearly 400 of Them
royal send-off Saturday morning wher
they boarded the train for the camp
1t seemed to me that the band might
have omitted the cheerful tune OF
"There Will Be One Vacant Chair,
and that they might have played the
'Star Spangled Banner" with more
vim. Why is it that most bands dc
play it like funeral march, anyway
There were to be about 10000 men
trained at Camp Grant, but the mum
Der is to be increased to about 10000
and the barracks are to be enlarged
The building is progressing rapidly,
but there is still great deal of work
to be done before all the men can be
housed. Rockford was always a fine,
busy city but it's activity seems to be
doubled now. Property values have
gone up, rents are very high, and bus
mess is booming. Kishwaukee street,
the highway between the city and
camp, is no longer the rough mixture
of rocks and sand over which [ used
to bump along on the way to the high
school. 1t is paved with brick, and
is to be widened to accommodate the
heavy traffic. Real estate values there
have scared sky high, as stores and
shops of all sorts are going up for
trade with the soldiers. For instance,
a tract of farm land which used to be
very poor was sold at $500
an acre. Another tract has been di-
vided up and is selling at $1,000 for a
lot with 25-foot frontage.
[ was sorry that did not know more
Of the Wisconsin boys in battery D,
so that [ might have brought word
from them to their friends. I am sure
that they are in good hands and that
they were a happy looking crowd Of
men.

KNOW HOW TO RAISE A B0Y7
N You Did You Would Solve All the
Problems Of Mankind and
Conquer the World.

"How to Raise Boy? Why. IL any
body knew how to raise a boy he
would conquer the world. He would
take his place at the head Of all
phllosophers-and stand as the most
exalted Of menl II there could be
written rules Of rearing children, all
problems would be solved. There
would be no distress In the world, no
crime, no blots upon the whole face
Of the earth," says the Dayton News.
Boys are born and proceed to
grow. They have heaped upon them
from their earliest understanding all
manner Of admonitions. They have
showered upon them more human love
than any other Creatures that are born.
They have more care and attention
and pay less attention to it--than any
other things that come into the world.
Now and then one develops into a
criminal; now and then one breaks
the hearts of all who have had any
thing to do with him. But none Of
them follow precepts or advice. None
Of them develop along lines they are
taught. None of them turn out exactly
as those who have them in charge ex-
pect them to turn out.
1T is this way: A mother has two
sons. They receive the same care and
attention. Their environment is identi-
cal. They eat the same food. They
have equal opportunities or advantages
as regards education. They study un-
der the same teachers-or refuse to
study under them. theoretically, they
ought to make the same kind of men,
for they have been brought up to-
gether. But they don't. They are
nothing alike when they are grown.
One Is good, the other bad. One is
studious, the other refuses to study.
One Is reliable, the other unreliable.
No. there Is no way Of telling how a
boy ought to be raised"
