Two days later rthe Chief of the Fire Brigadeapplied for a license, but the Mayor still re- fused. Later he had a conference with the remen concerningthe mat- ter, when he ascertained that the agent had represented to the Brigade that they could make some easy money by signing the contract; So the Chief signed. Under the con-` tract the firemen had to secure grounds: pay license and provide light. .

The rural school fair which is heldl at in nearly every section of the coun- try will be taking place next month it and is always an outstanding event bs`in' the lives of the children.

And good _ luck to them all, for they deserve 7' 3 the reward for their labor. But right Sghereis a point worth watching--what M Fgabout the children who have neglected 7 _ 'their plots and poultry and have no- ` _' thing toiexhibit? `The parents of 1 ' many of these youngsters will do ` them inestimable harm by letting them show vegetables from the home 3 garden or chickens from the home iroost in place of what they should lhave raised themselves. The fathers and big brothers will make bird- ' houses and other manual training ;,articles and the mothers and big sis- ; ,ters will dress dolls and bake cakes which will be shown as the sole work :?of the child. Thus the child gets his first lesson in dishonesty`, and all for the sake of a few dollars of prize money. And the example is far- `reaching, too, as the youngster who ii has tried honestly to do his best this ' year will next year try to get some :iolder person to help him because 1` ;-the other kids do.
