Third, he said that the way to get children to take more interest in ithe home is to make the home more attractive. If the home is bare and unattractive, and the whole family seeks to get away from it ufter every meal, a social problem is aris- ing. Unfortunately, he said too often when people want to enjoy them- selves they, have to go out of their own town. Fargo he said, was an example, for people went to a lake 50 miles distant.

He referred to the insistance in some towns that all people keep their property pre- sentable, He said he knew of one instance where the pastor of a church was allowed to remain but one year in a town, because he neg- lected to keep up the beauty of the parsonage yard. Dr. Waldron, with slides, showed the audience best methods and places of planting trees, shrubs and flowers. He talked to students at the bus- iness colege yesterday afternoon, and his advice on plpnting ~ was sought and given to many indivi- duals in the city. Dr. Waldron was introduced by Judge A. M. Christianson, who said Dr. Waldron was the greatest expert on plant life in the Northwest. ‘ MANDAN PLANS BIG “STAMPEDE” A big “stampede” is planned’ at Mandan on July 4 and 5, according to plans being developed there by boosters.
