Essays the Bugbear
of Boys in Omaha
Garden Lot Contest
Eccays, the bugbear of all school chil
dren, are provlim a drawback to enroll
ment In the school garden clubs, says
Secretary R. S. Flower. One of the re
quirements of oil members Is that they
write an essay about how they made and
used their Burdens.
Another cause of tardy enrollments Is
a mlnuiiderstnndlng on the part of
parents and children concerning rules of
the clubs. Tarcnts are asked to allow
their children profits from their work,
but that simply means that the young
sters shall be given credit for vegetablea
ronsumed by the family and does not
necessarily mean that parents must pay
the children cash.
