tory 1t is also proposed that a
small artificial lake be created in
connection with each Of the insti-
tutions, and this lake stocked
with game fish.
The idea is one that will appeal
strongly to every citizen of the
state, we believe. The state fish
and game warden should be urged
to carry out his plan Immediately
and he will have the support of
the people from the beginning.

AS TO DOING GOOD TURNS.

Next month there is to be a
good turn week" throughout tie
country, fathered by the boy
scout movement. The idea looks
good. The object IS 10 educate
lne individual along the line OF
dong good turns. Most persons
do good turns, not merely once Il
week or once day, but many
times a day. TO use concrete
instance, the present writer did a
good turn a few minutes ago,
When he was writing the first
sentence of this editorial, citi-
zen came il ylth a request for
him to read {, yer a long piece OF
type-written matter which, the
citizen said, he wanted to get in
the paper. The writer, though ex-
tremely busy at the moment
rushed, in fact-agreed to look
over the manuscript just as soon
as he could find the time. The
writer, however, really was un-
aware that he was doing good
turn. 1t wass simply matter OF
common courtesy-the courtesy
common to the average individual
who exists in the midst of human
S, ciety.
All of us who are worth the
space we occupy are doing good
turns every time we turn around |
1t is such a natural thing to do
good turn that one may be par
doned for expressing wonder that |
movement is set afoot having |
for its purpose the educating of |
people up to the aptitude for do
ing goodturns. Nevertheless, there
may be some persons i'll the world
whose early education in that re
spect has been neglected; and
such persons will be benefited
through the educative process to
be put over next month.
The best good turn is the one
that is done unconsciously, with
out parade or preparation, with
out expectation of having it adj
vertised after the event. Oppor-
tunities for such good turns are
innumerable. 1t may be that the
sponsors Of ''good turn week"
will try to induce people to do
good turns of the kind that ono
has to "go out Of his way" to do.
Such good turns, being the result
Of conscious effort and perhaps Of
a slight sacrifice ct time or PEI
sonal advantage, may serve to IN
culcate in the person performing
them an incln Ation to do good
turns naturally and unconscious
ly. If so, then will "good turn
week" be well worth while.
But none of us should wait nm
III next month to do our good
turns. The next time you turn
around you probably will find a
'hance to do good turn; and the
'urther probability is that you
will do good turn without being
thereof and will forget
forthwith; and possibly the per-
,on for whom you do the good
urn will forget it also. But, for
III that, if you are normal in men
al and spiritual equipment and
'our digestion is good, you will
lot fail to do he good turn when
he opportunity turns up.-Ard-
noreite.
