MAIL DELIVERY AND SCHOOL
TRANSPORTATION

Some of the rural life experts al
Washington have solved the big
idea that 100000 cost on rural
delivery could be saved, and rural
schools improved, by combining
the rural mail delivery with the
transportation of children to CEN
trail graded schools.
At first thought most people
would say the scheme would not
work. The children have to be
gathered in at a fixed hour each
morning. The mails come at differ
ent times of The day, according as
trains run. If the carrier stopped
at each house to deliver mail, it
would take the children all day to
reach the school house
Still there would be an economy
in using one vehicle and man for
two purposes. Anything that pro
motes central graded schools should
improve education.

keokuk People are Not "comina

Expected They Would for
This New Park.
SOLICITORS ARE OUT
If Attempts are Not More Successful
1t is Expected That Committee
viii Have to Give Up the
Job.

The committee which is soliciting
| funds for a baseball park in keokuk
, is not meeting with a great deal OF
success. according to E. l.. Williams,
chairman of the committee. Mr.. VIII
liams, Mr. Belt, Mr.. Earl and Dr..
Logan were out yesterday, and again
this morning, but they received small
donations and are long way from
the five thousand dollar mark which
was set.
There are too many five dollar
subscriptions and not enough twenty
five dollar Ones" member Of the
committee said today.
Unless the committee meets with
better success in the canvass this
afternoon, it will be necessary to re-
port to the fans that the move for a
ball park here is unsuccessful ana
the project viii have to be aban-
doned.
The committee members are ask
ing anyone who wishes TO contribute,
and who has not been reached by the
solicitors, to call up Mr.. Williams or
some member of the committee and
tell them what they will give. The
committee is anxious TO secure all
possible subscriptions before making
a report to the fans one way or the
other.

CHICAGO, April 15.-Heirlooms,

Like all boys, they are gre
garious-and the dictionary
will tell you that to be gregar-
ious is to have proper human
aspirations. The United States
and Iowa and Keokuk exists
only because the best of hu-
mainly is gregarious.
They felt the need of running
with other boys as much as
they felt the need of dinner.
The boys they congregated
with were chosen accidentally,
and the whole bunch had no.
body's interest in the least.

Annual Convention.

NEW YORK, Apr. I5.-Despite Grip
pied transportation, due to railroad
strikes, members Of the American
Newspaper Publishers association will
hold their annual convention here
next week.
l.. b. Palmer, secretary of The as
ISOLATION, said today no changes were
made in convention plans.

This is not a preachment to
parents-mostly they don't
care, and often they defend the
boys other people want put in
to jail
This is not an indictment of
the schools-the schools in six
hours a day can not counterfeit
the influences of the home and
the lack of home discipline.
It is not even an Indictment
of the bad boys involved in the
compIaints-the best evidence
is that they never had a fair
show.
The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1920-04-15

Something ought to be done
about it.
Some things, from the pad
die applied too late to buying
the boy an encyclopaedia too
soon, were done.
They didn't work.
The only way that works is
to assist the boys to congregate
in punches and supply a decent
direction for the activities Of
the bunch. This has been prov
ed successfully in a number of
cities,
The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1920-04-15

A years experience proves
that it works in Keokuk with
the boys to whom it was APP.
piled. There are others to
come in later.
The Keokuk Y. M. G. A.
started the formation of groups
of congenial boys all over the
city with real boy adjuncts and
no effeminate preaching, nor
rowdyism allowed. It's seIv-
ices to the boys is free of cost
to them and is offered to all the
boys in Keokuk-rich and poor
boys belong, and so do children
from Catholic and Methodist
families and from elegant and
sQualid homes-your real boy
is your real worker in democ-
racy.
So many joined these boys
clubs that it sWamped the Y.
M. G. A. building to have even
one group there each evening.
Remodeling the building
simply to accommodate these
boys without cost to them costs
thousands of dollars. It COM
pels the Y. M. G. A. to raise it's
annual budget to be obtained
from subscriptions to $4,000
this year.
This afternoon seventy five
canvassers started out to raise
this money in Keokuk.
1t is not a donation really
it is an investment in real boy
hood.
This kind of work among
boys beats silk stockings and
shirts, beats schemes to reduce
taxes, beats any other form of
investing money-if you live in
Keokuk and have foresight
enough to work for the boys
now to save all of us trouble
five or ten years hence.
Give a subscription to the
collector, or telephone $685.
and charge it to investment in
boys instead of to your expense
