IOWA DAY.

Iowa Day, Friday, October Oath, will
be observed in practically all OF the
public schools Of the state and. also
in the private and parochial schools,
according to plans being worked out
by the State superintendent OF Pub
lie Instruction. Mr.. P. E. McClena-
han. Superintendent McClenahan is
communicating with all Of the super
intendents of schools throughout the
state, concerning the general scheme
OF Iowa Day celebration and suggest
ing program which is quite compre-
'hensive.
It is proposed that five or six pu-
pills in each Of the schools be desig-
mated to learn a short story, each
about different phase Of Iowa's pre-
sent day activities. II the scholar is
particularly apt, he or she will learn
the story by memory and fecite IT.
otherwise it will be read.
{ The five subjects selected treat. with
history and government. agriculture
and animal husbandry, manufacturing
merchandising, civic progress.
Lists Of Iowa made goods are being
distributed to all Of the schools, and
an effort will be made to have some
sort OF contest, giving the prize to
the scholar who can enumerate the
largest number Of Iowa made pro-
ducts or who can stand the best ex-
animation on this subject.
The basic idea OF Greater Iowa
Week is not to build q wall around
Iowa, that will keep Iowa-made goods
at home or keep competitive goods
out OF Iowa, it is merely an etfor'
to acquaint the people OF the state
with the manufacturing resources and
development OF their state, and the
creation OF a pride in industrial pro-
gress, that will. in some measure, be
commensurate with their pride in
our progress in agriculture and ami
NAL husbandry.
Indications are that Iowa Day Gel
ebration will be great success this
year.
