Encourage School Attendance
School authorities are experiencing a growing
tendency on the part of high school youths to quit
school and start roaming oyer the country. As yet
there has been no movement of that kind started
locally and it is hoped that the boys will see that
their continued attendance is a duty they owe
to themselves as well as to the school.
Just what is back of the tendency to abandon
pursuit of knowledge is not presently apparent.
But it is surmised that boys of 15 to 17 years of
age, casting off childhood and on the threshold of
young manhood, are restless and find life in the
schoolroom irksome. Boys just a little older than
they are in the big army and naval training camps ;
school and community life seems dull, and besides,
in another year or so the call will come for the
stay-at-homes to get into service. It is a restless
uncertain period for these in-between youths and
lack of wisdom and experience causes many of
them to make unwise decisions.
Not wishing to impose a judgment in the matter
we would like to suggest that if any Morrow coun
ty boys are entertaining the idea of dropping
school in favor of wandering about the country
they should study the matter thoroughly, consider
every angle. By the time they have done this the
wanderlust more than likely will have disappeared
and they will conclude they have been especially
blessed with an opportunity to attend high school.
Parents, encourage regular attendance at school.
That is the least you can do. Full cooperation with
the teaching staff is essential if our present school
system is to remain intact throughout the war per
iod and emerge ready to face problems in the
postwar period. Our schools are struggling to
maintain a semblance of their pre-war status by
carrying on as many activities as conditions will
permit. These activities must be encouraged by
the parents as a means of holding the interest of
thleir children in school work.
It should not be necessary to lower the age lim
it to enter training camps but if the present ten
dency to quit school increases it may be advisable
to t.ke in the 15-16 year youths who otherwise
will become a social problem.

If you have not sent in your dollar for that sheet
of Christmas seals, put it on your "must" list as one
of the first things you will do tomorrow. The need
is great for every dollar that can be raised. Chang
es attributable to wartime conditions have threat
ened to undo much of the work accomplished in
past years in checking the spread of the great
white plague. Now as never before the tuberculo
sis association needs the support of everyone in
this struggle to not only care for those afflicted
with the malady but to prevent as far as humanly
possible, its claims on new victims. A dollar is a
small matter to a healthy person but it looms large
to one ill with this dreaded disease. Do yourpart
and be a bigger citizen.

Both canvas and leather have been limit
ed very closely for civilian consumption .
. . . labor is hard to get. To be assured of
completion on repairs of drapers and
grain aprons for this coming harvest we
have been informed this work must be
done very soon
A center strap in your draper will increase
the life of the draper several years, or
small repairs now could avoid a delay.
May we have your draper or grain apron at
once so we might assure you of completion
or obtaining a new one if needed for the
coming year.
