the fact that public opinion has been
aroused and has expressed itself In
no uncertain manner in dlsapproval
of the ultra-radical doctrines put
forth by the extrefists of the labor
forces. The conservative leaders OF
labor are regaining control, witness
the decision of the coal miners to
obey the governments order to can

mine the safety OF girl life outside
OF their doors. New Jersey Aca-
denny is organized to do for girls
away from home what no homes can
do unless they be devoted to this
one object. The advantages of gooI
high school education are free en-
ough to all but not all can partake
OF them freely. The obstacles OF
unprotected and undirected young
life away from home is no small one
in the way Of the family whose girls
must leave home for high school.

tains three dormitories for girls Co.
operative home making becomes a
part OF the daily curriculum, making
democratic the girls interests and
nurturing the home making instincts
which are given opportunity for eI-
preston. Social instincts newly aw
akening in the girl Of high school
age needs closer attention and di-
rection tIian.'sbe herself realizes.
With others she finds outlets under
sympathetic guidance and example.
Her schooling continues in her life
outside the school room. What the
normal home must provide in mater
ial protection, social direction. NOR
al persuasion--a must come thru
a religious motive that will carry
through life. Christian principles
learned from study Of the bible is
the foundation upon which this
school was built and is continued. A
comfortable abiding place. a labora-
tory for home practices, a shield
from evil influences, from question
able social relationships and practie-
es will avail little II the conscious
choices and habits be not turned to-
ward right living in The sight of God.
That girls may live and learn and
grow under Christian guidance is
the reason for her present claim for
attention from parents craving such
surroundings with high class stand
ing for their daughters who must go
away from home for high school.

all kinds of requirements IL is not
surprising that the topmost requisite
be met in the finest form desirable.
Northern Utah and Southern Idaho
are dotted with ranches and small
communities of progressive farmers
those every need is provided for as
fast as public opinion and public
money can be obtained But it has
been the privilege of a private school
to meet a most necessary condition
TO the furtherance of high school &C.
ucation for the daughters of homes
that are particular what becomes OF
their daughters. For those whose
girls must leave home to attend
school the New Jersey Academy ex-
lists.
The Women's Board OF Home Mis-
sions of the Presbyterian church
holds itself responsible for the main
tenance of high school of such
standing that schools of higher ed
'ucation have these many years recog-
nized New Jersey Academy pupils as
desirable students and efficient lead
ers. Teachers, graduates OF eastern
colleges, curriculum designed to en-
ter gradutes for advanced training
in standard colleges of the country
over. Small classes inducing indivi-
duals to feel obligations and respon-
sibilities are not the least of import
ance in standard OF education. These
are New Jersey Academy's first
claim TO recognition among Logan's
school advantagea es4s Ia
The second claim is that the board
ing department equipped with mod
ern appliances for use and comfort
provides a place of home life and
activities that parents interested in
the protection of their girls are glad
to find. To leave the home roof and
to break from the protection that
parents and brothers afford girls at
home is a risk for any young girl.
The kind of boarding place she finds
is an anxiety to home folk and COM
munity alike. The very age of girls
ready for junior and senior high
school makes the matter of larger
Importance than even the schooling.
Schools of themselves cannot deter

amounts of merchandise thus blocked

trade the present scarcity Of money
are most obscure. The condition is
not local, but world wide. In this
country, although certain hesitan-
cy in buying OF raw material is like
ly, the purchasing power Of the peo-
pie is enormous, and manufacturers
are sold months ahead. With spec
ulation in securities and raw mater
ials curbed and with probable de-
crease in exports. legitimate trade
should not be materially curtailed
for lack Of funds. The Federal Re-
serve system, designed primarily for
just such conditions, is coming into
position to control rates and reg
ulate the supply of money to bust
ness.
