commissioner of education in speak
ing of the new spirit which, in re
cent years, las brought public schoo
officials into close, intimate contac
with the business and social life o
their several communities.
"The old idea that a teachers onll
contribution to community life
should be made through the class
room is rapidly disappearing" Miss
Redfeld continued "superintend-
ents and high school principals are
almost always members Of Rotary
Kiwanis and similar organizations
and am certain that they not only
are benefited by their association
with local business and professional
men but also are able to make their
definite contributions to the activi-
ties of such groups.
zone striking example Of the close
contact between school officials and
the communities they serve is found
in the closing of many southeastern
Idaho schools in order to permit
students to help in the harvest fields.
Burnley, for instance, declared two
weeks harvest vacation; the Shelley
school vacation lasted three weeks
and other schools in the southwest
ern and southeastern parts of the
state were closed from one day to
three weeks for the same purpose.
"Of course, under ordinary cir
eumstances it probably is not adyis-
able to break into the school year,
but the action taken by school au-
thorities at Burnley, Shelley and else
where this year was entirely com
mendable, because the bountiful
crops with which all southwestern
Idaho was blessed simply could not
nave been harvested without the aid

tonow, assistant director of the de-
partment, said that If necessary ex-

BALTIMORE, September 15.-
Women played big part in yes
terday's primary election. not only
in Baltimore but throughout the
State.
Winding babies for busy moth
ers was one Of the tasks under
taken by Baltimore woman poiiti-
cal workers in an effort to get
tie feminine vote on record in the
primaries.
Autos driven by women Of both
parties were numerous in all parts
of the city. The captains Of the
motor squads organized by the
city-wide clubs Of both parties in
practically every ward, however,
found that the women expected
more than transportation to the
polls. Many of them expected to
attend to errands and marketing.
The presence of a large number
of woman judges and clerks at
voting places throughout the city
encouraged timid woman voters.
