Provides Pupils Happy Pastime

roads, rivers, etc,, with blocks.
Others sat at small tables tracing
pictures, colouring, doing jig
saws, working with plasticene or
looking at books. All appeared
extremely happy with no inter

over.
This sturdy, efficient machine cuts and
completely shreds stalks—tw6 rows at a
time—and spreads them evenly on the
field. It leaves the ground in better con
dition for clean plowing, aids in corn
borer control, and helps to rebuild the
soil faster because shredded stalks decay
faster than whole stalks when turned
under.

■causes
The
of the causes was lack of balance
between industry and agricul
ture. -Members decided that war
among nations today results
largely from the necessity felt
by industrial societies to get
additional land for agricultural
purposes.
Graft for money and power,
covetousness and desire for pro
fits from war keep people stirred
up. It was thought that lack of
education, hunger and poverty
may cause some wars but mo
dern war is more apt to start in
well fed countries.
The forum discussed, also,
ways in which wars may be pre
vented and thought armament
and economic balance in the
major ‘Countries was best. One
group suggested that if material
ists and those wanting war pro
fit were enlisted for front line
fighting there would be fewer
wars.
