SECOND GRADE ROOM AUTUMN SONG


 AUTUMN SONG Fast fall the leaves now sere ant
 yellow.
 | Great heaps are piled along the lane Red glow the apples ripe and mellow Stripped are the fields of garneret
 grain.
 The flowers of summer have vanished No perfume is borne on the breeze; i The bird that his mate serenaded Flies now OCT distant tropic seas. Now comes the lonely Indian summer Dreamy the hours, too sweet to last Welcome thou art, fair radiant, Ghost of the fair and radiant past A soft warm haze makes soft the blaze Of golden days.
 On Thursday the third grade pupils moved into their new room. We miss them very much. The ten second graders from the other building have joined our class so we now have twen ty-seven boys and girls in the room
 On October IS we had a special les. son for Alaska Day, and the little people were able to tell almost all the chief products of Alaska.
 We have been studying more about plant seeds. Some of the children made some good drawings of dande- lion and thistle seeds.
 We read an interesting story about Mrs. Lady Bug and her children. Then we drew some pictures of the queer toad stool house where they lived
 Friday we had a second grade spell ing match. Julia Braxton and Roy Holdiman spelled all the words we have studied so far this year; then new words were given and Roy won, We are trying to learn to spell the words fast and to make just one start.

Genoa, April 27-Soviet Russia
contributed another sensation to the
economic Conference yesterday by
sending a note to the Polish delega
ton demonstrating against Poland's
action in joining with the Allied pow
ers in protest against a separate trea
" between Russia and Germany. Rus
STA claimed that the peace treaty be-
tween herself and Poland covers all
relations between the two countries,
so that Poland, like Germany, should
participate in the discussion of Russian
affairs, even intimating that Poland
by her present action in the confer
ence has abrogated the treaty signed
at Riga on March IS, 1921
Russia has q strong Red Army en-
camped near the Polish border, and
for this reason the Russian remon-
strances are regarded by some of
the delegates as equivalent to almost
a threat against Poland.
The experts on the Russian ques-
ton sitting without the Soviet dele
gates today compared notes on the
new proposals presented by the Rus
sian delegates at Mondays session and
decided to forward their report TO
their respective governments. 1t is
expected that when the answers are
received from the various capitals the
powers will submit counter PROPOSE

PREDICT SMALL TOWN BOOM
Residential and Industrial Readlue.-
ment May Come During the
Next Twenty Years.

ID this country to see very soon q
"bOom" Of the smaller community as
contrasted with the great city7 The
editor Of the William Feather Magazine
Of Cleveland suggests ii, as follows
within the next twenty years 1t
seems certain that two movements
will take place that will enlarge the
small town.
"One OF these will be the migration
Of business and professional men and
their families to towns Of 5000 to
10000 located within a ifty-mile radius
Of cities in which they work during
the day.
1.-THE other will be the decentraliza-
ton Of industry and the movement of
both factories and working forces from
the city to the small towns.
with improved living conditions,
factories will favor small town sites,
figuring that they will thus reduce their
labor turnover, and save enough in
overhead, taxes and interest on ex-
pensive city sites, more than to COM
pensate them for the disadvantage Of
doing business in small town.
IF this adjustment does take place
It will solve many Of our most per-
picking problems, for there is no ques-
ton that our cities are getting too
big. A city, like business, can get
SO large that the law Of diminishing
returns begins to operate. It is an
established principle that when q
business grows beyond a certain point
the return on the capital invested
decreases.
1.-THE same principle applies to cities.
Big cities have such problems as trans
portation, housing, health, fire and
police protection, from which the
small town is largely free.
1.-THE factors which are doing much
to hasten this decentralization are the
automobile, the motion picture and the
talking machine, all Of them recent
Inventions
1.-THE automobile has shortened the
distance between the small town and
the big city by Is per cent.
1.-THE motion picture has given the
small town the cheapest and most popu.
lar form Of entertainment ever de-
vised, while the talking machine has
enabled the people to hear the worlds
best music right in their own homes.
zone other force has aided and Is
aiding the small town, and this is
