Mrs Theodore Saxon was on the
North side yesterday afternoon, in
structing the junior high school girls
in preparing their garden. The ground
for this purpose. the future poStofflce
site, has been plowed. and is now be-
ing planted to the various vegetables
that the girls have selected as being
most suitable to their purpose. Owing
to an agreement with the government
no fence can be placed around this
ground and a result, it is still used
as a thorofare. AS this garden is for
a patriotic purpose-the Red Cross
persons who "cut across" might be
regarded as unpatriotic. 1t is doubt
full if there is even one person in
North Topeka who is really lacking
in patriotism. and this short cut is
merely the result of habit and
lthoughtlessness. Give the girls a
chance to make good with their gar
den.
