During the morning exercises I read a couple of chapters from a story, as was her GUS tom. I cannot remember the name of the book, but I had just read "But here comes the author of all our trou- bles." when the door suddenly opened and in walked the principal. The room, composed of high-school sophomores, burst into one prolonged roar of laugh ter. The principal, man insistent upon his dignity. waited patiently, but one burst of laughter followed another. I tried to explain, but began to laugh myself. Finally, realizing that it was the only way to restore order, he left the room. Later I explained and he saw the joke.

TOWN BOARDS DUTY
TO CIT ROADSIDE, WEEDS

Lots Of folks; don't seem to fully real
iZe that flte $ituation4=W TIL fesDefet to-
the enforcement Of the NuNIOuS weed
Law is different from what it has been
for the, past twenty-five or more years.
One item III particular is provoking a
lot OF discussion This is the reSpOnsi
bility Oh the part Of the township
boards for the cutting OF weeds along
the road~itleS Until the passage ri
Chapter :}20-S T. To- Laws of 1921.
roadside weeds were supposed to have
been cur hE The abutrlng property OWN
Grs and the town board members. vii
lage council ANA such officers We're au-
thoriZel to notify the property owners
to destroy the weeds. Now, under the
provisions Of Chapter 300 (ct"d ;lbuye)
it is obligatory Oh the town boards to
cut or cause to be cut all noXiuus weeds
along The road side.
See - The governing board OF each
town. village. borough or city. shall at
the expense Of such municipality, cause
all nOXiOuS weeds standing OF growing
upon amy public road on highway there
in to ht. cat down between the first day
Of June and the 18th day of October
following as often as may be necessary
to prevent the ripenng and scattering
of seed Of nOXiOus weeds.
ObiUuSly the members Of the town
boards did not wish to offend friends
and neighbors by ordering them out to
cut the weeds even though a large ma
jOrity Of the farmers favor the pro-
cedure as provided in former laws AS
Il result most Of the roadsides were
neglected until weed seeds had ripened
Thus the old story ''Everybody's bust
ness is nobody business -.
Now it is to be different The law
plainly states that the cutting Of road
side weeds is up to the town board of
the respective township and the admin
istartion OF the law is in the hands Of
the state officials. Hence no danger OF
creating neighborhood feeling" is
likely to develop. The local weed in
spectOr notifies the members Of the town
board just as he would a farmer Or city
lot owner, If they do not comply with
the notice and get the weeds cut, the
law may take its course. %a
The new law was passed on the as
sumption that united action was the
basic principle in lioxious weed con-
troll. Those who want to see weeds. I'M
der control and voluntarily attempt to
keep them in check will welcome the
law and its enforcement Those who
are indifferent or neglectful of weeds
will be willing to be reminded and will vii
fall into line for the universal effort or
Those who do not sense their response
bility to our fellow men must be re-
minded of the fact and be brought TO
the point Of realizing that this II weed &c
