The streets of Vernonia are no place for boys and girls to spend all their leisure time. Find something for them to do around the house, just enough to keep their minds occupied a liberal part of the time, and the vacat ion will be worth more to them both now and in the years to come. American youth has shown an inclination to “take things easy” in recent times, with the result that sooner or later this country may find list of drones as large as that which now menances the future of England. Keep the boys and girls doing just enough dusing vacat ion to prevent their forgetting the curse of idleness.

In spite of the fact that the population of the cities is increasing Uncle Sam has just issued a bulletin showing that the birth-rate in the fanning districts and small towns is 52 percent greater. The figures state that the time of the last census there were 128 children in the cities for every 100 wives between the ages of fifteen and forty-five while in the smaller towns there were 157 children and in the purely farming sections 195 children. This refer ence to towns means places of from 250 to 2,500 popul ation. In the country there are 109 men to every 100 women and in the towns 95 men for every 100 women. These are interesting figures, but far more so to those who live on the farms in the towns, for it proves that they are, after all, the ones to whom the country must look for its future citizens. J KEEP THEM BUSY CHOOLS are nowr closing through the country, and the summer vacation season will again find our boys and girls enjoying the well-earned rest towhich they are entitled. No one begrudges them a vacation, and every one wants them to get the most out of it. But those who have their welfare most at heart are those who realize that vacation time should not mean a time of complete idleness.

They find that the styles change every little ways, until by the time they have traveled a few hundred miles there is congleomeration of signs and traffic orders so confus ing that many drivers give up in disgust and quit paying attention to practically all of them. But now comes word from Washington that the American Association of Highway Officials is laying plans for a standarized road sign system. Under it all road signs throughout the U. S. will be uniform. Once a man learns the system he is safe in all parts of the country—the signs will mean the same thing whereever tehy are found, and there will be no need for confonius. With standard road signs, the elimination of speed and drivers looking both ways we may expect the accident problem to take care of itself. OF Vernonia, Oregon ing the week.
