Would Teach Folk
How to Live in
Their Community

MINNEAPOLIS. Minn.--Instruction
in the business OF living in communi
ties" is recommended for q new high
school course by William F. Webster,
superintendent OF city schools, in a re-
port submitted TO the board Of educa.
ton.
Under the new course, the study OF
modern languages would be deferred
one year. while the student pursued
studies that would give him:
A knowledge OF our government---lo.
cal. state and nationl--together with
slight information regarding the gov
ernments OF the great nations of the
world.
A knowledge Of the commercial and
industrial world in which we live, this
to include some study Of commercial
geography.
Some elementary work in vocational
guidance.
Mr.. Webster explained that the rea.
son for this recommendation was that
the best preparations for living in the
future is knowledge Of conditions un.
der which men must live in the pres
ent. He said courses OF study hereto
fore have been made with an eye too
constantly on the future or too fire.
quently turned toward the past.

PEST CAMPAIGN
GREATEST help
TO THE farmer
Ringer Says Work of Destruc-
ton of Weevil in Field is
Going Steadily Forward
Other Good Done.

The boil weevil campaign of the
Chamber of Commerce which ended
July 10, has had its good effects first
in encouraging the farmer 10 continue
cultivation of his cotton crop, accord
ing TO a statement made by c. e Ring.
er, acting secretary OF the Chamber OF
Commerce.
Most. OF the farmers are getting over
Their fields once a week with sweep and
cultivator thereby keeping a dust mulch
and brushing the infested squares and
wevils from the cotton. he said,
Many OF the farmers have pledged
O. they will keep this fight up against
- weevil until the cotton is ready to
tfck. The Indications from reports from
different parts of the county are that
q good crop OF cotton will come in this
fall If the farmer will keep up this
work, cutting weeds and burning
around the fields.
The campaign will prove one argu-
ment at least, according to Mr.. Ringer,
that Is that careful persistent cultiya.
tion along with weed cutting and burn
ing around the field of cotton will hold
the pest in check sufficient TO produce
G good crop.
The Chamber OF Commerce is asking
all producers of cotton to thoroughly
test this work and report 10 the office
at harvest time as to the results. Mr..
Ringer stated that he together with
business men Of Ardmore. were very
anxious that the farmers go right on
with the work of cotton cultiva ton and
keep the weevil on the run.

BALTIMORE.-The enthusiasm Of u

Il am now bachelor OF AZ. / have

Il get little enjoyment out OF wo-
men, more out Of alcohol and most out
Of ideas. Therefore, | have become a
connoisseur OF ideas and devoted my
self TO criticism of the absurdities.
Put l never expected to make 9th er
people adopt my opinions"
Here is Mencken's opinion of Amer
lean life in this year of Our Lord. 1929:
1T is one of my frmest beliefs
reached after due prayer, that the gov
ernment Of the United States. In both
its legislative and executive branches,
iis corrupt. ignorant, incompetent and
disgusting-and from this judgment
except no more than 20 lawmak ers
and no more than 20 executioners OF
their laws
1T is a belief no less piously cher
ished that the administration of JUS
tice in this republic is stupid dishon-
est. and against all reason and equity
and from this l expect no more than
20 judges.
1T is another, that the foreign policy
Of the United States. its habi.ual
manner OF dealing with other nations,
whether friends or foes, is hypocritical,
dis!ngenuous, knavlsh and dlshonorable
and from this judgment consent 10

LONDON. - Queen Alexandra, the
Queen Mother. now in her 18th year, Is
far more active Than most women Of
her age. She might take life far easier
than she does. but she evidently is op.
posed to the idea of beilng laid on the

She likes TO show herself among the
people and she is gratified by the ap.
plause with which her appearance al
ways is greeted Undoubtedly 1t acts
as a sort OF psychological tonic upon
her and helps her TO feel as young as
she looks
She crowds many activities into day.
One day recently she appeared in public
at the Cart Horse Parade for prizes
in Regents Park; then at concert
in aid Of workshops for disabled sold.

show. But she makes two concessions
to advancing years. She seldom goes
out of an evening and she goes to bed
early, usually playing a game Of 'Pati.
