ENTERING THE OPENING DOORS

Many communities are doing all
that can reasonably be asked toward
the diffusion OF popular intelligence.
The doors to ambition and progress
and cnlightment arc wide open, but
n lot of folks seem indifferent whet-
her they enter or not. After all,
the principal element in popular
education is the willingness Of the
people to be educated. The facili-
ties are beng offered all the tine,
if they are only accepted.
The cities and village which may
lack sufficient facilities in the way
OF Libraries and reading rooms,
ought to remedy this defect. But
until this is done there is no reason
that people should lie down and
feel thai the doors Of opportunity
are closed to them.
In thousand of places where such
facilities are denied, the people club
together to Torm reading circles.
They unite to purchase u selection
of magazines and books which are
passed around from one to another.
They see the best current literature
and they become we'll informed.
The result Of making educational
facilities easily as.essible is to en-
courage lot of people to think
about community and public pro-
blems who otherwise would drift
idly through life in more super
fetal way. A community that pro,
vides such easily accessible facilities
will in time have mole thought
full population. Its people will show
the result of brains in the way they
order their public affairs.
Yet there is no one 80 remotely
located that the facilities of educa
ton are denied. Many Of the in
telligent people are located far from
the facilities Of colleges and lectures,
and classes. But in their quiet
homes they are faithful readers Of
the newspaper press and the lit6ra
ture Of the times They know
what is going on in the world and
could take better part in intelli-
gent conversation than lot of folks
in metropolitan society who are
close to the heart of events but who
fail to take advantage of their op.
p6rtunities.

DENVER MEETING
IS IMPORTANT
TO MONTANA

"Ihe Denver meeting between di-
rectors of the American Wheat Grow
ers Associated and the National Ad-
visory committee headed by Elk. Gov.
Lowden is vitality important to Mon
tana"
This was the statement of C. M.
Strawman, Manager of the Montana
Wheat Growers Association, on his
return from a recent conference in
Minneapolis with officials of the
American Wheat Growers. Mr.. Straw
man was called to MINNEAPOLIS in con-
nectiOn with the business of the Mon
tana Association. While there, he had
a conference with George G. Jewett,
who is General Manager of the Amer
lean.
ct is probable" said Mr.. Strawman,
in definite action toward uniting all
chat the Denver meeting will result
interests in the big drive for nation
al wheat pool. A number of import
ant matters will doubtless be taken up
by the conference. Ways and means
Will be discussed for financing the
drive, for one thing. Just what will
be done about the financing, of course,
rests entirely in the future. 1t is
possible, too, that some recommends
tiOns will be made touching some of
the state organizations already in ex-
istence."
81 understand" Mr.. Strawman con-
tinued, "that the plan and character
of the organizations in Montana, the
Dakotas, and the northwestern states
has been definitely approved by the
Advisory Comittee. Whether or not
any suggestions will be made touching
some of the newer organizations, re-
mains to be seen"
"There has been some discussion, OF
an unofficial character, touching the
| advisability of a zone system of or
ganization for the various wheat To-
/ calities in the country. 1t will posi-
bly be more practicable, for instance
to handle Indiana, Illinois and Iowa
wheat in one zone, and wheat from
/ Motana and the Dakotas in another
Whatever the conference decides upon
will vitality concern the wheat poolig
movement, and we shall all await with
interest the outcome"
1t was decided at the recent confer
ence in Chicago that the men inter
ested in that meeting should meet
again in Denver with the directors OF
the American Wheat Growers Assocl-
ated. The regular meeting of the
