Shank stated he would order City
Engineer John L. Elliott to prepare
plans on the territory to learn just
how much It is practical to annex.
No estimate has been made on the
exast size of the tract.
Territory north and west Of Fair
view Park and the site of the proposed
artificial lake in the lowlands across
White River would be the first de-
sired under the plan, the mayor said.
This territory is hilly and consists Of
very valuable building sites.
Large expansion is planned on the
north, east and west boundaries of the
city in particular, the mayor asserted.
Mayor Shank said that placing the
line at the Dandy Trail was arbitrary,
and that in some cases he believed
this might be TOO far, especially on
the south side, where property might
not stand assessment for city i'm
provements.

By United Press
ST. JOSEPH, Mich, April a.
Issues in the trial of William z.
Foster alleged communist. involved
the ideals Of American life, Charles
w. Gore, prosecutor, declared in his
argument to the jury today.
THE communist party Of America
is the communist party Of the world.
It knows no race. no country and no
religion It's sinister philosophy con-
templates a maelstrom of lust and
murder. It stabs at the very heart
of human happiness"
Core declared the issues in the case
are simple, but they involve all there
is in American life"
''They involve the perpetuity Of
our standard of government-of our
business" he declared.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1923-04-03
Involve Religion

They involve the guaraniees of
freedom of religious belief and finally
they involve the sanctity of the fam
lily and the home"
The fiery prosecutor of Bierrien
County told the jurors that they
should render a verdict of guilty "un-
less you are ready to give up the
fruit of your life's work; unless you
desire to surrender supinely all of
the finer conceptions of life; Unless
you are ready TO plunge this country
into an orgy of class hatred. chaos
and civil wa; unless you are ready
to surrender freedom for bondage,
liberty for serfdom. independence for
vassalage.
Which shall it be, freedom or
thraldom?" the speaker shouted. You
are the ones who will decide.
"WiH you by your verdict annihil-
ate and destroy those qualities that
have made America the ideal of hu-
man history"

after vigorous effort and If he succeeds in finishing high school
there is no chance of any pecuniary assistance If ne wishes to ac-
qure college training.
His family may have made financial sacrifices in order that
they might proudly behold him graduate, thinking that when he
had attained that high honor he would be able IN turn to assist
financially In the education of the younger children.
But when he steps down from the graduation platform his
heart may well sink within him. He is unframed In work He is
too proud and too much puffed up by the plaudits Of the basketball
are fixed upon college as q field where he may win new iaurels on
a larger field with q greater crowd of spectators. on his younger
brothers and sisters he has almost forgotten the existence, or II he
meets them on the street, he ignores then.
Grown selfish and self centered in the useless carefree exist
ence he has.led in high school he faces the task of either making a
living for himself or of sponging on his parents, for there is no
whIte-coilar Job open to him, the girls have grabbed OFF all these,
the demands upon his purse are insistent, continuous and exactlng
because these same girls who have taken away his means of livi-
books and flowers and in fact pay all social expenses in addition to
the cost of suitable clothing while she has her wages to spend self
ishly upon herself or in some cases, to save.
Usually this boy gives up the unequal fight. His parents are
His friends are disappointed. His former teachers
look guilty. The fact is that all of them are more or less response
BILE for giving this boy the wrong training, and all breathe a sigh
of relief when he drifts away into unknown fields.
When he returns, having found footing and satisfied his con-
science, what a relief TO all of US.
The system is to blame. Times have changed. The COMPETE
ton of the gentler sex in fields formerly all masculine has driven
the unsuspecting male to other pastures. Of this fact our system
of education has taken no notice.
Our social customs are as antiquated and unsuitable as the
hoop skirts of 1860.
Boys are boys. At one age they are impressionable, and anx-
to work. At this age they must be taught something which
will enable them to be something more than a burden to them
selves, their parents and their frinds when they have reached the
advanced age of 18.
Belt Valley times. [volume] (Armington, Mont.) 1894-1977, 1923-01-04
THE BOYS.

The Normal Training department gives to girls a technical
training which enables them on graduation, if they have attained
the age of 10, to take a job which will pay them from 500 to 500
each month of twenty working days for nine months in the year.
The commercial department starts other girls on the road to po-
sitlons at smaller salaries it is true, but with assured success and
steady work the year round! Merchants prefer girl clerks in gem
eral and only in the coarser, heavier work have they any use for a
boy.
The agricultural department of the high school is not intend
ed to make farmers out of town boys. It's mission is to impart to
the sons of farmers the results of the scientific investigations of
the various schools, bureaus and agencies in the field of better
farming, stock breeding and kindred lines. This education holds
out the promise of a job only on his fathers farm.
The high school commercial department may give to the boy
the rudiments of a b~ookkeepers education, but the possibilities of
his securing a position as ~bookkeeper without actual experience
are very remote.
The same department may turn him out as a fairly proficient
stenographer, but professional men prefer girls as stenographers
because of their greater neatness, a~daptability and speed.
What is there for the boy graduate of a high school to look
forward to which will keep him from starvation while he is at
temptng to get a foot hold in some trade or profession2 We en-
courage our sons and our neighbours sons to complete the high
school course for several reasons. They may be of athletic type
and their physical prowess may bring athletic honors to the local
school A large high school is considered a credit to any town and
this student will add to the numbers.
The more students a school has the more revenueit receives
therefore we urge this boy to finish high school
Or we may believe that his mind ia of the calber which will
accomplish great things If he is only properly trained.
Probably he comes from a family where both ends meet only
