doctor and one red cross. We must
give the soldiers all they need and
plenty of everything. They will fight
like lions, and God bless them We
don't want the enemy to get us, but
we want to get them! Amen Amen!

WORTH OF SCHOOL GARDENS
Development Of the Idea Proves How
Valuable Has Been the Informa-
ton Spread by Them.

It was only few years ago that the
school garden" idea, nature studies"
and the teaching Of agriculture in the
common schools, were looked upon as
fads of the most exaggerated type.
Farming, it was maintained, could be
taught on the farm, where it would be
needed; of what possible use was it
to teach farming to a city boy or
girl? These nature studies" wasted
the valuable time Of the pupil which
should be employed in rational work;
in short, the whole propaganda was
rank nonsense. Yet, the entire move
ment has grown and spread with phe-
nomenal rapidity and has become al
most the beginning of national pol
icy. Where ten years ago there was
one city school garden, there are now
a hundred, and every spring sees
thousands of new ones organized and
open. Towns, cities, and states, and
not least, the national government,
have fostered and pushed the move
ment with enthusiasm. The federal
bureau of education and the depart
ment of agriculture are devoting much
time and energy to it. AS matter OF
fact, it is now recognized that the
problem of the education of the Amer
lean boy and girl is more than a mat
ter of mere pedagogy. 1t l. ques
ton of the industrial efficiency and
social stability of the nation.

GRAND JURY TO
CONVENE EARLY
TO MEET RUSH?
Possible That Federal ROdy May
Have Special Session
at Peoria
MANY CASES NOW WAITING
Fifty Defendants Are Placed I'M
der Arrest Here Since Adj
iouTnment.

Owing to the fact that an IN
usually large number o. persons
are being held 10 await action by
the federal grand jury at Peoria,
il now appears highly possible that
q special session OF the body will
be called to dispose of the cases.
After continuing in session for
more than TWO weeks, the grand
jury had been adjourned only a
few days when so persons were
arrested by United States marshals
on charges of carrying liquor on
the Rock Island arsenal and for
attempting to transport liquor to
Iowa
Although not all of these per
sons are being bound over to the
federal grand jury by Commits
sioner c. I. Walker, the numbe
Is great enough that it presents a
problem as TO the early disposal
Of the matters. Some of the al
legged offenders are forced to re-
main in the county jail because
they cannot raise bonds. The ma
jority, however, are out on bonds,
Have to Wait.

division opening the third Mon
days in April and October. If
some immediate action is not TAX
en- TO dispose Of the cases, the Of
tenders will be compelled to await
the scheduled converting Of the
jury late in October.
Persons indicted may be taken
to courts in Springfield or Quincy,
providing they wish to plead gull
y. However. the Springfield ses-
sions are held the first Mondays
in June and January, leaving as a
result only a brief period before
the converting of the June term.
In the Quincy divisions sessions
are opened the first Mondays in
March and September.
The foregoing shows that there
is no other convenient way TO dis
pose Of the many cases without
having special session Of the
federal secret body.
Two More Bound.
In addition to the Is offenders
hound over to the grand jury on
Monday afternoon and Tuesday
morning several others have been
ordered held awaiting action of the
federal grand jurors.
