One thing that is lacking in oar
s „„t diiv education, and our present
day bov training, it that wo are not

ask the boys what work they hnve
iiliofien? ' '
Go to tho colleges Jitol inquire, nuu
you will find that many boys are being
educated because their parents are able
to educate them, and because it is fash
ionable. They are not being educated
for anv definite purpose. Some one is
telling'it over the country that an edu
cated mail is all fixed up nnd ready for

Some of us are complaining about the
high wages demanded liv plasterers.
Some of us think that engineers and
conductors'get too much money.
Some of us feel Hint machinists nnd
mechanics hnve u day that is too short
.-in,| pay that is too high, or tlmt their
pay is out of proportion to pay re
vived by farmers nnd clerks in stores.
The way to equalize earnings is for-
more boys to team to plaster, lay
brick, become muster mechanics, con
ductors, engineers, etc. Too ninny are
staving on the farm learning nothing,
or going to school expecting to como
out of, eolloge a gentleman who can
make a living without work.
There are too few boys in the fac
tories or in the shops learning a trade.
All of the trades are Bhort of high elnss
men. They all present fine opportuni
ties for bright boys who nre willnig to
apply themselves until they master the
f rude.

quired. It'lle whole pain, it. was eniphn
sized, is calculated to liinko it. easy for
tiie farmer to have electric lights and
tlie other conveniences of electricity.
The appreciation of the benefits of
leelricity for the farm has spread
amazingly since the Belco-Ligbt Com-
pi.nv, sevon years ago began the nianu
fneturc and distribution of farm plants
The increase, it is estimated, is 2,000
per cent of the number then in use,
nnd there is plenty of evidence that
this will grow in still greater propor
tion, during the coming months. Plans
like this one just described will help,
for plans like this make it easy for
for everybody to hnve electircity. Of
nurse everybody will hnve electricity,
some daw, for it is a modern improve
ment which is' being adopted every
where. But its advnntnges nre so great
that it is important for those on tho
farms to get electrical cnveniencos ns
quickly as possible. The Dclco-Light
Company is helping to this end by pro
viding this simplified plan of distrib
uting its products and it is easy to un
derstand tlreir prediction that many ad
ditional people will begin enjoying the
benefits of electricity this fall.

Gamp Alfred Vail is tiie only post
occupied exclusively by tiie Signal
Corps and in this camp nearly nil Sig

situated on the Now York and Long
Branch rnilroad midway between Long
Branch and Red Bank. N. .T. Tiie run

Excellent train service is afforded on
account of tho commuting population.
The railroad station of ‘'Littlo-Silvor-
Oeoanport” is n short walk from the
camp.
Tho camp may be divided into throe
main arms namely: Tiie Camn proper
Tim Radio Laboratories, and Tho Signal
School.
Tn tho Cnnin proper is centered tiie
soldier life nf the garrison where as

tions as the 1st Signal Comnniiv and tho
Hat Signal Battalion import to the to-
emit those nnnlities of obediecnee, pa

■very man in any wnlk of life.
Tn Hie Radio Laboratories radio
nuinnient is developed for the use of
the Army. Here extensive and detailed
l,. s ls nre conducted and every preenu-
I ion taken to insure perfect operation
in the field of our rmlio sets.
In the Signal School courses are con
ducted for tho following specialities:
Radio electricians. ,
Telephone nnd telegraph electricians.
Telephone and telegraph electricians
—advanced meteorologists.
Each of the.se specialists courses con
tinues over a period of nine months.
Preliminary training ill radio, telephone
nnd telegraph work is given in schools
conducted by the 1st Signal Company
and 51st Signal Bn.
The Signal School has as one ot us
primary purposes tiie advancement ol
individual knowledge on the part of tin
nlisted men of tho Signal Corps, and
illier arms where necessary, along the
line of Signal work and the operation

In the Meteorologist course the stu

of meteorology. As part of tiie daily
instruction meteorological observations
are taken nt Camp Vail and this data
is flushed to the various stations whnt
go to mtke up tiie ‘‘Model Airway.’
Tims the stmlnet enables the airplane

from tiie various broad casting stations.
Many men nre able to tune in points
at a'great distance. These private ac

authorities and every facility' within

Boxing tournaments are frequently
hold at camp. Civilians of the sur
rounding communities pronounce these
matches to be the very best anywhere
around. The men nt camp think so
also. Every man enjoys good clean
sport when lie once enters into the
spirit of it. At the present time the
camp holds the fly-weight nnd feather
weight Corps Area championship.
Amusements also have their proper
weight. Motion pictures arc displnver

The swimming at Avanel, Long Beach
and Ashburw Park is excellent in sea

abound.
The Parker’s Creek branch of the
Shrewsbury River adjoins the Camp
Vail reservation. Thi snffords an op
portunity' for yvator sports. Several

Altogether Camp Alfred Vail is one
of the most ideal spots in the Army, es

Those who have not been observing

people here who now read this news

Cordele territory are going to he kept
busy ill tiie pnultrv production which is
bound to follow. Very few of us today
understand how much money this fea

of us will be realizing whnt wo ought

Those wlio throw away the twelve
months on cotton surely do not under

able for continuing to throw it away
on cotton? If it can be had on a fair

Here is what is happening elsewhere.

todav when an appropriation of
$1800 was made h.v the board as
:s part lmvment of tlio salary ot tho
county agent, the remainder of the
expense to he borne through -ether
sources. The action of the board
came as the culmination of a move
ment begun n fortnight ago when
more than 200 business men amt
farmers held a mass meeting nt
the country club and decided by
an unanimous vote to get away
from the cotton proposition and
inaugurate a program of diversifica
tion of crons, adopting the Turner
county plan with tiie cow, tiie hog,
ttve hen as a slogan.
Thoniasviile, Sept. 7.—Thomas
