Keep Food Act for Present
I renew and strongly urge the ne
cessity of the extension of the pres.
ent food control act as to the period
OF time in which it shall remain in
operation. The attorney general has
submitted a bill providing for an ex-
tension of this act for a period Of
six months. As it now stands it is
limited in operation to. the period Of
the war and becomes imperative
upon the formal proclamation Of
peace. 1t is imperative that it should
be extended at once. The Depart
ment Of Justice has built up extern
sive machinery for the purpose of en-
forcing its provisions; all Of which
must be abandoned upon the con-
clusion of peace unless the provisions
Of this act are extended.
During this period the Congress
will have an opportunity to make
similar, permanent provisions and
regulations with regard to all goods
destined for interstate commerce and
to exclude them from interstate ship
ment. If the requirements of the law
are not complied with. Some such
regulation is inperatively necessary.

YOUNGSTERS KEEN
TO BEGIN GARDENING
So Superintendent Michael
Finds in His Visits to
the Schools.

County Superintendent w. e. Mich.
ael visited Monongah Tuesday. OF this
week and Lincoln district yesterday.
In Lincoln district he visited Jamisou
inc No. 8 school and .F'armington
school. County Demonstrating Agent
Miss Blanche Price visited Monongah
at the same time with Superintendent
Michael and discussed future work IN
gardening and canning among the
young people. Miss Price endeavored
to discover the interest already shown
for the work and found many boys and
girls anxious to get out Of doors and
get busy with gardens.
Superintendent Michael reports q
busy week just past and says he did
very little talking while visiting the
various schools throughout the coun-
)ty. "Ivisit most OF tho schools in the
county mainly for the purpose Of OBJ
serving all that is done. do not mean
to do very much talking, though coca
sionally talk on various school prob
lens. Most Of my talking, however,
is done privately to the teachers.
When i see something which | think
might be improved, various teachers
and myself have get together meet
ing. Sometimes tell stories in the
rural schools because the pupils have
few visitors and like to hear some one
talk"
Superintendent Michael's work COW
ers much interesting ground especial
Ily along fha cnuntrv schools There
are 12S one room schools throughout
the county but no more red school
buildings and few double seats In
these rooms. It requires many miles
Of walking through muddy country to
visit all these schools but Supt. Mich
ael does not miss any Of them, cover
ing the same ground on an average Of
once every few months and sometimes
oftener. The rural one room schools
contain anywhere from six to 80 pu-
pills depending on the location. a few
schools keep open part Of the time
with only six pupils such time as
their pro rata of the taxes warrant. It

less than ten pupils for full term.
Most all Of these one room schools are
equipped modernly with slate black.
boards and other necessities.
The Marion County Chapter School
committee OF the Red Cross will meet
at four o'clock in Superintendent
Michael's office tomorrow afternoon.
Mr.. Michael will spend most OF his
time In his office the rest OF this week.
