GOOD RECORDS BY Al
BOYS And GIRLS OF co.

Figures compiled at the county
extension office show that 1875 of
the 1863 boys and girls enrolled in
standard All club projects in
Roosevelt county have completed
their work and sent in reports for
the past season. These r new
county records for enrolment as
we'll as percentage of finish.
Further study of club records
show that 5 boys clubs and 8
girls club have been organized
during the past year. All have
been under voluntary local lead
ers and in most cases have had
assistant leaders helping the club
management. Considering the
white clubs alone, we find that
11S of the 1872 members enrolled
completed their projects for a
completion percentage of 80 per-
cent. This is unusually good con-
sidering the number of members
enrolled, the wide variation in in
-terests and the territory repre-
scented. Clothing clubs in the fol
lowing communities have 100 per
cent completion: Dane Valley,
Cottonwood, Bainville and North
Bainville. A total of 1872 girls
were enrolled in clothing and
foods club projects.
Boys club work has included
work with calves, hogs, wheat and
corn. Thirty-four boys and n
girl enrolled in the calf club pro-
ject and thirty-one boys and the
girl completed. One of the five
boys enrolled in swine club failed
to complete, however, the corn
and wheat clubs with 8 and 4 en-
in each, finished 100 per
cent.
With the great increased mem
bership, the All branch of extern
sion work is taking on new mean
in Roosevelt county. Requests

1ected that a much larger number

NOT e
To "Ca h On"

The prevalent practice of
Catching On" to cars and trucks
by children with sleds and tobog-
gans has come to the notice of
the police and other city authori-
ties and anxious parents. In some
instances IT presents many chane,
es for fatal or serious accidents
and in the interest of safety must
be either regulated or entirely
stopped.
Cars or trucks with sieds be-
hind them MUST NOT be driven
by children and all such will be
stopped by the police.
Children and youth with sleds
of any kind must not catch on to
cars or trucks without knowledge
and consent of the driver.
Motor drivers who know they
have sleds behind must drive at a
strictly moderate rate, especially
on corners, and exercise the ut
most care with reference to other
cars.
Motors with sleds in tow MUST
keep off of Main street except to
cross 1t when really necessary.
The friendly cooperation OF
parents and drivers is earnestly
requested. There is no wish to de-
prive the Riddles of their fun but
safety should come first to head
off disaster.

Continued From f1rst Fa2e.l
gress by Representative Parker Of New
York, a member of the House Commit
tee on Interstate and Foreign Com
naerce. The bill Is now in the status
of unfinished business" Of the Senate.
Extension Of Policy.
In its report on the bill the House
committee said THE principle Of
Government regulation Of public utlli-
ties has been generally adopted in this
country, both in Federal and State mat
ters. The enactment OF legislation OF
the character proposed will be merely
the extension of this principle to a
utility which, although comparatively
new. Is one which is developing with
great rapidity in all parts OF the United
States and bears close relation to the
public interest"
The original recommendation of the
commission called for Federal control
of all interstate passenger trafhc on the
highways to the extent that rates and
fares be regulated, certificates showing
public convenience or necessity required
and liability insurance or indemnity
bonds be demanded Of the carriers.
It Is recalled that although the origi-
nal investigation by the commission
embraced motor transportation of
freight as we'll as traffic, the commits
sion deemed it advisable at the time
to urge regulation only Of commercial
passenger traffic. The forthcoming in
vestigation also will cover the broad
field of motor transportation.
Regulation Favored.
Federal regulation Of interstate bus
and truck trafic apparently meets with
the approval of the transportation in
terests involved The National Aseocia-
ton of Motor Bus Operators recently
Endorsed the Parker bill, and the action
Of the bus operators, in turn, has just
been approved by the Executive Com
mittee of the American Electric Rail-
way Association.
Henry r. Trumbower, professor OF
economics at the University OF Wiscon-
sin and economist Of the United States
Bureau of Roads, advised the recent
International Road Congress here that
Cooperation between railroads and au-
tomobiles Is one Of the great require
ments of the age Bus operation,
whether carried on by railway COM
pany or by an independent operator,
must be conducted as a regulated
monopoly" the congress was told.
