CLOSING SESSION (Continued from Page 3.) ’ his mental powers, which decline for lack of exercise. He urged that the salvation of the farm life must be maintained by a maintenance of the • country spirit." One of the most enjoyable parts of ' the program was the essay, ‘'The Boy on the Farm,” by a real, live farm boy, Clem Steigmeyer, who knows whereof he speaks. The young man’s address was delivered in a free, easy and eloquent manner, and showed thought far above his years. Te told about the greater opportunity the ■farm boy has for developing the traits of beauty, in the free, open, yet secluded life of the farm; his opportunity for application of methods; his power of developing practicability, self-reliance, quick-thinking, the freedom from seeking paths of temptation the wholesome round of work brings. Taking all in all, the country boy need not be envious of the city boy. The parents of the country boy may help much in making his lot contented and happy. The boy should be given a share of the stock or crops, tn encourage his working powers, and to make him contented therewith. The Dons quartet comprising Sherman Beery, Don Burke, Howard Wisehaupt and Brue Patterson, was then called upon and responded with a vocal selection that further proved their skill and so pleased the audience that the boys were forced to respond. C. B. Benjamin then spoke on “Agricultural Education for Boys and Girls.” He suggested that the boys are often given advantages on the farm, to the disadvantage of the girls, that the farmer should do as much for the girl as for the boy. He spoke of music as the great refining force, and advised a course in music, as a restful and reviving change for the over-zealous girl, who is too often pushed ahead in her school duties, beyond her physical endurance. The parents should enter into a closer companionship and close sympathy with their boys and girls—invite them to bring their company into their home, where good may result

C- 1 — not only for the home children but for the visitors; provide them innocent arid instructive amusements — and they will not seek them elsewhere, and be careful of their reading. Visit them in their schools. Parents too often trust their children month after month to hired masters, when they could not think of trusting their stock to hired masters for a week at a time. This point was then taken up in a most able and apt way by Prof. L. E. Opliger, superintendent of the Adams county schools, whose subject was “Some Needs of Public Schools.” He emphasized loyalty of teacher, loyalty of the patron, a revival of the true spirit, and the cooperation of the teacher and patron, the need of greater practical application, the sympathetic working together of “heart, head and hand," a closer supervision of the schools, and more centralization of schools. His address was a scholarly one, directly to the point, his knowledge having been gleaned from intimate association with the schools and their needs during his several years’ work in this field.
