The closest election ever recorded In

taxpayers of the school district by a
margin of one vote favored prop a
al to Inrreaae the budget $13.1100
above the constitutional limitation
for the purpose of building a switc
hing pool with PWA cooperation. Th
count was 319 yea, 318 no.

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.
