II CROW'S-NEST


The town of Bruce has adopted {
new kind of direction post at the in
t%ersection Of its streets. Instead Of
wooden frames or metal posts a sec
ton of large tile, filled with earth OIL
sand, is substituted and on top OF
these are placed potted plants or gar
den Towering plants are grown. The
ladies have taken charge of keeping
the plants in condition during the
growing season.
In talking about road conditions, a
citizen of any town or city almost al
ways claims that the roads in and
about his own town are the worst
ever. Let an outsider, however, crit
icize said citizens road he will re-
sent it. This is something like talk
ing about ones feet. An individual
will remark about his own big feet
but let some one else cus him of
unusually large feet and he
will feel insulted. Such is the per-
versity of human nature.
This is eminently a garden year.
Whether it is the wal garden spirit
that causes people to pay more atten-
lion to gardening, the fact is that
there are more fine gardens In the
city than was ever known before. 1t
Is a pleasure to stroll about the city
and observe the taste in laying out
plots, the care in keeping them

BOY CAMP AT COLLEGE

The big annual camp'of the boys of
South Dakota State College last week
was a splendid success in every way.
Four hundred and thirty boys were
enrolled and came from twenty-four
counties, our neighboring county of
Hamlin scoring the high record with
the boys who attended were on their
arrival, green as grass, and we do
not mean that in any derisive way.
The fact was hat they were boys
who were shy, difident, Unused to be-
ing away from their intimates, and
for the first forty-eight hours they
were out of their element. But by the
time the week was owe these same
boys were showing the true stuff that
confident and self poised. They had
found themselves and found that
there were many things in life Of
which they had not known and which
they found worth knowing. This as
ISOLATION with other boys, the mixing
in classes and studying things in CON-
mon with others showed them the
contact of human life and the good
that can come from the Interchange
of opinions. The contact with skilled
teachers, who treated them AS young
men, brought out their dormant MAJ
hood and compelled them to think and

nature to keep the intellect on the
move all of the time.

nothing more than the bringing of the
boys together was accomplished, a
very valuable thing would be done.
But when we add to that the instruc-
ton in practical farm life and all the
things that are used to impress this
instruction, then we must see that no
event that happens at the State Col
lege yearly is of so much Importance
to the boys of the state as is this week
Of camp. Perhaps the boy never again
see a college, yet he has been given
an impetus and a start along a line
of intelligent study that will influence
all of his later life.
In connection with this subject of
camps, The Register believes that a
weeks camp for girls would be OF
just as much service to the state as
is the camp for boys. Cooking, sew
ing, sanitation, home economics and
physical culture could be given atten-
ton enough during a weeks visit of
the girls to the college to start them
right along the coming years of life.
The plant is there, the teachers are
just as available as for the other
camp and the need, in the opinion of
the Register, is just as great.
All of the boys registered were in
the judging courses and the teams
for this work were chosen by elimin-
alton. This competitive feature of the
weeks work, extending all through
the instruction, added greatly to the
enjoyment of the boys and increased
their application to the business of
learning the things that were present
ed to them.

ual scores were won by Tilford An

The potato judging champion team
was Louis Gebhart of Flandreau,
