Often one heans that newspapers "get things all balled up." u"<l I? it any wonder? Oft en when a reporter for a newspaper goes to a man for a hit of news he is rebuffed, or put off with one excuse ir another, instead of being met frank ly and told all there ls to the item, rho secretive person, when it comes 0 giving news to the papers is usu ally the one who has complaints to make. Of course if the newspaper man cannot ?et the facts aa they ure, and it is necessary lo print something 1 bou I the happening, ami most news papers like to report occurrences ivhen they occur, hen a garbled report is file result, lt i a pretty safe rule o tell the newspaper man everything, ind ask him not to publish certain things which you wish to have omitted. Possessing all the fads a more Intel ligent report can be written, and we nave yet to learn of a trustworthy newspaper man who has ever given iway a secret with which he has been rusted. Another thing, don't blame a news paper for not carrying a full story of the happening at some special event when an Invitation to lt has been with ?old. Newspaper reporters always pre 'er to have a report of an occurrence it .lrst hand, rather than as told by ?onie one else. The Intelligencer stri des to carry all the news and as ac curately as lt ls possible for it to be old, and with these hints we trust wo shall be able to get facts as accu rately ns possible from those who can <ive out UCWB.

Wo heartily thank Judge Prince in the name of .Mgelield county for his patriotic, broad-gauged and sound message to -mr Grand Jury, and respectfully re tuest that he reduce same to writing o that we may publish it and broad est it and hammer it into the minds md hearts of our people, trusting that uv tri and favorable action may en sue.-Edgeflcld Chroniclo. HOME AND SCHOOL GARDENING Announcement recently has been made from Washington that the Unit ed States Bureau of Education ls to .ake up the work of promoting home and school gardens. Commissioner ('laxton favors school gardening because it develops habits of industry and because lt brings "'an appreciation of value and measured In terms of labor and a realization that ?very man and woman must make his ?jr her living and contribute to :ho welfare of the community. Experi ments have shown that, with proper direction, an. average child can pro luce on an eighth ot an acre of land 'rom $50 to $100 worth of vegetables. This, Dr. Claxton points out, "would idd more to the support of the fam ily than could be purchased with the same child's wages working In factory hop or mill." Also, he calls attention .o the fact that "If children can con tribute to the family's support while in school, it will make lt possible for '.hem to attend school three or four . ears longer than they now do." It ls the hope of the Bureau of Edu cation that ultimately every city school will have a teacher employed twelve months* In the year, who knows gar dening both in theory and In practice, during iho sci. ? ?ol year, according to 'he bureau's plan, the teacher woutd rive Instruction In nature study, ele mentary science and gardening In the morning, and In tho afternoon would direct the gardens at the homes of the .hildren. During the summer vaca tion, the teacher would devote all the time to directing the garden work. All surplus vegetables and fruits would be. by a co-operation method, either marketed first or canned and pre served for sate. Much progress already has been made In Behool gardening and, the principal difficulty that has been ex perienced In the expansion ot the work has been the lack ot definite and detailed Information on the subject Ono of tin- first things tho Bureau of Education will undertake to do is to prepare und disseminate instructions as to how to make- mid manage a gar den, in tim and in other ways the bureau will effectively supplement the work of agricultural colleges and oth er agencies. It is quite as appropriate to teach gardening in city schools as it is to teach agriculture in rural schools. There are many city people who have yet to lea n the possibilities of thu garden. The best results in attain ing (hese possibilities can be secured tty educating the children in the art of 'making things grow." noooooooooooooonooo" fl o o OUR HAILY POEM o o ? ooooooooooooo Kure He's a Traveling Man., (Fly W.

General Hill replied that he would comply with the armistice but would continue to defend the town In case of attack . > The Maytorcna batteries late today tossed several shells into Naco. This was taken as indicating the Sonora governor's defiance of the order, al though he lias been operating suppos edly under orders from General Villa.

HAS CITIZENSHIP A VALUE? || ITIZEN8HIP has a definite value. This value cannot be computed In dol lars and cents, but lt is worth fighting for. Citizenship grows out of communities- Were there no communities there would be no citizens. We would then bs merely unprotected Individuals -entirely at the mercy of arl other Individ als who might wish to destroy any weaker or less ferocious one. By dwelling in communities we have many advantages Some of na value and appreciate theso advantages while ether?, selfishly accept tho ad vantages but refuse to do their share toward maintaining the community. Laws have been enacted to compel us to pay taxes-used for the finan cial support of communities for our protection. . BOT THERE ARC NO LAWS WHICH COMPEL THE MEMBER OF* ANY COMMUNITY TO SHOW APPRECIATION OP THE BENEFITS DE RIVED FROM LIVING IN A COMMUNITY. One of the benefits of living In a community ls tbe opportunity furnished us to buy merchandise required for our comfort and indulgence, right here in our own town. This facility permits us to buy what we need when wo need It We can step into a store, lay down a dollar and buy a doll''rn worth of goods. Perhaps we can get the goods without paying the dollar' down in cash-that is, If wo havo th? ctedlt What a genuine benefit it 1B to be able to do-this. In the olden days our forefathers were compelled to drive many miles to a store where tho merchandise might be obtained. Large quantities were bought at a timo because the trip to the store could not he made at frequent intervals. As our citizens increased in numbers and gathered into communities, stores were established at the various centers of the Increasing population until now we can buy, right at home, our necessities and luxuries. That whlcli we value we endeavor to protect If we value the facility for purchasing goods at home we should, protect lt The best way to protect lt la to make lt possible for the storekeepers to continue to do business. If we do not help them to 'continus to do business here In our community the natural consequence will bs for them to close up their stores and go out of business. If we buy from our-local stori'.ieepers only such merchandise as wo cannot buy conveniently elsewhere, we will soon discover that the stores will carry only such restricted lines of goods aa are In demand by the peo ple who live here. Then we w ill find out that we are not much better ott than our fore? fathers we.?. Wo must send away for such merchandise aa we require. Wo 1 must watt until tho order has been received in the mall order house and filled in the Jue course of time by the employes of the concern we aro patronizing. There are many disadvantages in this method. We do not fully realise thom now. Bot they will come home to us when conditions arrive which compel us to buy everything by mall-It such a time does come. ' However, If we look at the matter In the right light we will not permit such a eon- j tingency to arriva > Why should we bo deluded Into sending our money away from hems bo cause of the fulsome and flattering descriptions. In s mall order catalogue? Why should we prefer tbs vu est I o na bte quail tie? In merchandise as exploited by a catalogue writer to the honest, dependable gooda which wa can ses be fore us In our own local stores? Do we save money by buy I nj from the mail order nouses? When tho matter of freight and express charges have been figured ont, when Ute ques tion of delays, unsatisfactory shipments, breakage, damaged goods, etc. havo been answered, where ls the profit ff any? ON THE OTHER HAND, THE LOCAL MERCHANT IB ALWAYS RE SPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING HIS BELLS. The purchaser caa examine any article for ssle in the local store and buy only that which ls satisfactory. It win be delivered without demy. If thora ls any Imperfection it will bb quickly remedied. If there ls any shortage la the delivery it will be supplied at once. A personal cali or a telephone message will arrange everything quickly. And when lt comes to prices1 yon will always get full value for your money when denims with the local storekeeper. Ho boys bis merchandise In tbs market and bo sells it at a profit to us. He asks only a modest profit and bs ls entitled to it We should be perfectly willing to pay bim a profit for bbl Investment, for bis labor and for bis ability to save ?s timo, trouble* and money. IP WE ARK NOT WILLING TO DO THIS. WE SHOULD BE HE ARTILY ASHAMED OF OURSELVES. AND WE WOULD NOT BU ENTITLED TO THE ADVANTAGES AFFORDED BY BIS STORE.
