CIaxtOn For City Gardening

Philander p. Claxton, United States
Commissioner of Education, made
plea for more school gardening in
cities before the school garden sec
ton.
A variety of subjects embracing So
lutons for the housing situation, the
tendency toward suggestive and i'm
proper dancing and the difficulties of
the seIf-supporoting college girl occu
pied the attention of the deans OF
women in State UNIVERSITIES.
TOO lifting" music ana lack of con-
scientious supervision more than any
thing else induce the 'shimmy" and
improper footwork and holding,
which must be done away with in
dancing, the deans believe.
In the home economics meetings it
was predicted that less attention will
be paid to food and its preparation
and more to clothing and buying of
household and personal commodities.
The rural section urged that coun-
try school children be given equal edu-
cational opportunities with city pu-
pills.

using this grain, for seed in 1921
provided a, few precautions are taken.
Badly shrunken seed is not suitable
for sowing and if the seed is discol-
sored it certainly should not be used
for planting purposes. But if the
wheat is bright in color and the
kernels average nearly as heavy as
the small plump seed of a normal

for use for planting, provided it is

Charity On Business Basis Here;
 Use System In Giving Aid To Needy

The man of the family loses his job. His wages have always been small, and a few weeks finds the family without food and, perhaps, without clothing. They are deserving people who are. perhaps. too proud to appeal to charity. But their need is brought to the attention of Miss Gilchrist and call is sent out to the various firms which might have a vacancy in the mans particular line. Sooner or later he Is given work of some kind and his need is over.
 All day long the phone is ringing or people are dropping into the office to report some case which needs oloking after.
 How many residents of this city realize that there are in Phoenix more indigent and needy people than in San Francisco-a city nearly 20 times the size of this? That there are any number of families living here who would not give so much as a crust of that our charity is dependent upon our own donations?
 Now that Christmas is coming Phoe- nicians must not forget to give of their bounty to those who are in need If each person would try to do something to lessen the suffering or supply the wants of just one family, there would be no needy in the city on Christmas Day. Isn't that a goal worth striving for?

 Tuesday night a small boy was brought in suffering from an infected hand. No time was to be lost in get ting him to a physician if the hand were to be saved. An automobile was called and Miss Gilchrist herself took the small patient to the hospital where proper care was given, and yesterday would not lose his hand.
 That is business in charity.
 Some of the cases which are brought to the attention of the Charities are pitiful; some of them are almost heart breaking. Sick people who have come here to breathe the health giving ail require very little aid to make then self supporting. That aid is given
