We would say that agricultural training is one of the; most needed and most practical “fads” that could possibly be placed in our schools. Likewise commercial education, physi- cal training and manual training. The successful educators have for some time recognized the necessity of vocational:in< struction and have been making plans along those lines. i The withdrawal of state aid for the various departments our state has found them essential. D BOY AND GIRL SCOUTS F The present campaign for the enlistment of Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts is one that should be given every possible en- couragement, There is no better training for boys and girls, to teach \them self-reliance, self-control, alertness, physical mental and moral cleanliness, kindness and patriotism than Scouting. . The biggest problems we have in our homes, our schools and, our cities are our boys and girls, and they are the most valuable asset we possess, ,The Bemidji of the future is largely|: in the hands of the boys and girls who are running about our streets today. The kind of husbands and wives, father and mothers, employers and employees they will make will depend largely upon the interest taken in them by:the present. fathers and mothers of Bemidji. : We have been busy legislating ‘““don’ts’; for our boys and girls, but have we not signally failed if we do not provide some “do’s” for them for their unemployed time? - One-ninth, only, ot_‘ their time is spent in school, the other eight months must be directed intelligently or their lives will not be a success. mont] previous years, but also ,hen. the fruit first sf X oo, 1t plapt licé are notis According fto ho - | plums or plants in ea: , th es for |with nicotine sulph: ¢ Min- | half ‘piut of & forty i ng |sulphate and: two to p to 50 gallons of discovered.

As we understand the proposed ordinance, all boys and girls under eighteen years of age, un]gss accompanied by parent or guardian, are to be re- fused admittance to public dances. Now then, what will be done with those yvho are under eighteen years of age, who want to dance and will dance some place, if they cannot persuade papa or mamma to go with them? There are dance halls in the country, not far away, where they can go and likely where they will g(_)—th.en what? We merely are asking the question, what oversight is there going to be for these younger - people who are really the ones whoneed the chaperonage? X We are heartily in_ aceord with the aim of the.ordinance, viz., that proper supervision of such dances should be made and, dance hal}s made responsible for infractions of the ordinance but there is to our minds, somewhat of a question about the un: der age b9ys and girls.
