While games and athletics appeur to hold the major Interest of Amer Jean youth, home-making aotlvltles are still the cholee of girls, national records of the Olrl Scout orgsnlra tlon reveal. During the peat year the prepon derance of tastea of Olrl Scouta who range In age from seven to 18, ran to home-making enterprises, more badges being awarded In thla field than In any other, organization lead ers here atated. While they were busy with many things. Olrl Scouta all over the na tion were busiest with cooking and the study of foods, housekeeping, sewing and learning how to enter tain, the record ahows. "Whether a girl looks forward to making a home or establishing ft ca reer, she knows that a knowledge ot domestlo 'arte will be' an asset In either case," a Olrl Scout leader here declared. With summer end vacation activi ties ovor for the year, Olrl Scouts have once more resumed the familiar role of school girls, fortified by a long season of scouting In which outdoor camping played a greater part than ever before. Although the camping period Is ovor, howeverJ Olrl scouting continues, it being an au-year activity. Prom September to June Olrl Scouting aupplementa ihe school, the two working hand In hand toward creating a richer life for the qlrl. leaders here pointed out. In school the approach to that Ufa la through the discipline of lectures and atuily while In Olrl Scouting It la through recreation and permitting the girl free choice In the selection of those activities which she thinks would be most fun to learn. It waa explained. As an example of how scouting supplements the school, leaders cited this Inslenco: Where home economics are taught In the school, the air! Scout program aupplementa what hi been learned by affording an oppor tunity to practice the knowledge In conjunction with other skills. A part of tho school hours may be devoted to conking end when Olrl Scoutlmi hours begin the troop may plan to give a dinner for the parents. In such an event the girls wtll cook the dinner themselves and this embraces many collateral activities. Invitations must be Issued In correct form, the marketing done, the din ing room attractively prepared, flow ers arranged, guests properly received and the meal well served. By Oswald Garrison Vlllard Noted Liberal Observer As was to have been expected, tbe new depression Is taking Its toll In the newepaper world. Newspaper pub lishers who have been meeting losses have accepted the Inevitable and either sold out or scrapped their papers. Mr. Hearst has been doing this for a couple of years paat, or rather the administrator ot his prop erties baa dona ao. He haa Juat made over bis Chicago Herald and Ex aminer Into a tabloid, following a precedent be set In Boston not long ago. What Is even more striking Is the action taken by the Scrlpps-Howard newspapers In Ohio, where they have scrapped the historic Toledo News Bee and have sold their Akron Times-Press to the strong and Influ ential rival newspaper, the Akron Beacon-Journal, A change to a tab loid does not necessarily mean that the sun Is setting upon the news paper affected, but It Is safe to say that If everything was going well the owner would not have cared to make the change. Long I toad Editor and Publisher has pointed out that for all other tabloids the road haa been long and difficult. Some have fallen by the wayside; othors are not making much money, and In small cities "the ptoture tab loid aeema to have no place." That the great chalna are not only growing but are decreasing la an Interesting phenomenon, for It Is but a few years since we were being warned that If we were not on our guard we should wake up and una the bulk or the press of the country In one or two hands. Chain Shrinkage But now we are seeing shrinkage of the most Important chalna, or else they have stood still. A few years sgo Frank Qannett seemed to be well on the road to rivaling the Scrlpps-Howard papera, but after a misstep In his purchase, and re sale at a heavy lose of the Brooklyn Eagle, he haa not advanced so far as the number of his dallies Is con cerned. The standing still of tbe chains during these recent bed times does not mesn that with the return of prosperity we may not see further development of the existing groups or the rise of new ones. It doea mean, I think, that those now In existence will he very slow even In most prosperous times to take on additional properties. Weak Sister When the Toledo News-Bee dis appeared the Editor and Publisher declared that the maintenance ot a weak sister which had been sup ported from the central or silled source for yeara after It had failed to make both ends meet will not continue much longer. That seems to have been proved true again by the happening In Akron. That was a great part of Mr. Hearst's trouble. He wss sentimentally attached to some of the newspapers like the New York American, which hardly ever made any money and often cost him more than a million dollars a year. These are extremely difficult times for newspaper ownera. Wages have been forced up, and In many cases should have been foroed up long ago by the new trade unions, and the cost of materials has Increased largely, while advertising naa slumped heavily In keeping with general economlo conditions. Ob viously no sound business man could hesitate about getting rid of a news paper that produced only losses, rather than to weaken the whole chain by such a drain. Limited Chains I do not believe that American Journalism will auffsr If chains are limited In numbera, I dread the standardization of our press and remote editorial control. To be of the best service to a community I believe that a news paper should be owned and operated by local men with a pride In their community and not by men who may at any time be transferred from one city to another. This objection hardly holds where a man owns a few newspapers which he can personslly supervlae. 6 KILLED, 13 AS Card ( Thanks We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for their kindness to us during the Illness and death of our beloved son and brother.
