OUR PUBLIC “School is open.” This is the phrase he: few days. But does it carry a thrill, a sense of responsibility to you Mr. Citizen, Mrs. Citizen or Miss Citizen? It certainly should. The reopening o the resumption of all functions of the public school | impose a responsibility upon every resident of Bi whether he has children within those school walls or not. The Rotary club in the t has aroused a considerable number of citizens to the necessity of close cooperation with school officials. it is the greatest c More public money upon education than for any other municipal enterprise. No institution touches more closely the home. Nowhere as in . the schools can ideals be nurtured and the inspiration in- stilled for a better citizenship, for a greater patriotism that pelis more stability for American ideals. ; What then do the schools mean to you? Do their opening merely bring relief of a shifted respon-| sibility? A place where the “kiddies” can be tucked away | relieving the home for a time of the clatter and confusion— | a respite for the elders This viewpoint alas is too often the case. A school | system cannot grow greater than the respect and coopera- tiowgiven. Nor can any teacher however skilled she may be, provide a substitute for parental influence and discipline. | That strong arm must follow the child into the schoo! room and uphold and strengthen the morale of school discipline and decorum. H The Rotary club doubtless will continue its plan of co- operation, but it alone carinot do the job. There must be complete community unity behind the plan. Whether aj parent-teachers organization is advisable or just what is the, most effective cooperation should be worked out in confer: ence with the school personnel.

This is the most interesting fact | , brought from his latest South American tour by E. M. New-| man, travelogue lecturer. Newman is enthused, and with good reason, about the: - possibilities of trade between United States and Latin Amer- , ica—particularly Argentina. ! He figures that South America has a purchasing power ; three times as big as France’s and 10 times as big as Japan’s. There’s a market worth going after. } = | Ten years ago, when Newman visited South America, he noticed very few American autos. On his, recent trip he} found American cars by the thousands. Our autos are so} popular south of the equator that they have practically driven the cars of all other nations off the market. Newman says: “Contrary to the popular impression, | South Americans have great pride in their personal appear- | Amefican collars, shirts, underwear, hosiery, shoes | and:hats find great favor. “American moving pictures are the only ones shown. Mary, Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Charlie Chapman and | as they are in our own.” Good news, that we are finding such favor with our neigh- | bors to the far south. | Argentina is an especially logical market for the Amer- | ican manufacturer, Lecturer Newman believes, because: | , THe ple of Argentina are the most extravagant race in the world today. Their extravagance excels even that of the Russian nobility during the czar’s regime.” i” Newman says that Argentine women, when they appear | | bejeweled that they eclipse in splendor even American wo- meh. ,All of which reéburces and national economic productivity that will place cixi | ole dF on rising on the South American continent. mtina, in some ways, is the key nation of the world. log know that the epidemic of world restlessness iminated in the World War cropped out first in Ar- fa in the form of the tango, mother of jazz life. o .-».« PLANT TREES Mie second largest tree in the world, a giant California [& was recently renamed as a memorial to President | § his tree; 82 feet through and 280 feet tall, is 5000 years : R | and still a youngster. cates ssa toal tow! gs preparation, getting the soil ready for the ri d unless we replant*on a: biz is expended in Bismarck each year|¢ }and save him.” : grass, in public places of recreation, are so dazzlingly appareled and ; are surface indications of enormous natural | y of us are so hypnotized watching the decay of the| Argentina— (Brazil also)—in the top. ranks of world powers. | i | alization in Europe, that we forget there’s a mighty new | cut it down, and yet we watch without | eatracion of our forest wealth which was mil- With the dead, at the moment, listed at between 250,000 and 500,- 000 and the statement that in the!

WOULD PREVENT.ACCIDENTS ~ i WHICH CAUSE BLINDNESS New York, Sept. 6.—Because of the growing seriousness of accidents in public places and in homes, as well at in industry, as_a cause of blind- ness, the National Committee For the Prevention of Blindness announced today that it would undertake im- mediately a progressive census of all eye accidents with a view of deter- mining means of ‘prevention. This decision, ‘the committee declares, grew out of the recent realization that there has come about a radical change in the incidence of the vari- ous principal causes of blindness. The committee has discovered, for instance, that whereas not many years ago the greatest single cause of blindness in children was “babies’ sore eyes,” the percentage of bl ness from this cause has been cut in half. Blindness caused by acci- dents of various sorts, on the other hand, has increased to such an ex- tent in recent years that now constitute the most se: gle cause of blindness, An effort will be made to secure a record of every accident causing an injury to the eye whether it occurs in a factory, in a home, or on the street. This census wiil gradually be extended into every state in the Union. The results will be tabu- lated by principa] causes and analyz- ed monthly. A month to month com- parison of the records of this cen- sus will enable the committee and its many co-operating agencies through- out the country to learn whether— idus sin- see written is “Confessions of a Coal} moulders|mander Kenworthy h as is now believed—the number of cases of blindness through accidents is steadily increasing, and against phat oe of serigauts the ener- gies of the committ : fected, ee should be di pid BOON collection, The Missouri Botanical Garden here is said to have the larg- est and most varied orchid collec- tion in America, if not in the world.
