Everybody Welcome.
A Visit to a Cljildreii's School Farm.
Columbia University,
Hartley Hall,
N0W York City.
Editor of the Dispatch:-
If you thiijk the boys and girls
of Alamance would like to know
how some of the little boys and
girls of I^ew York City spend
their summers you may publish
the following: ^ .
In 1902 Mrs; Henry Parsons
established the first Children's
School Farm or Garden in New
York City. It was supported by
private funds and contributions.
Now they are taken over by the
city^di^e' teachers have to
stand examination under Munici
pal Civil Service for positions as
teachers. In 1911, 22,000 differ
ent children used these Gardens
from May 20 to Oct. 20. It was
one of these Gardens to which
275 students of Columbia uni
versity had the pleasure of go
ing PMday afternoon, July 12th,
at the Thomas Jeiferson P^rk.
This particular Garden is called
the “Garden of a Thousand Gar
dens” because it has a thousand
little gardens or plots for the boys
and girls to raise things in.
Each one of these plots is 4 by
8 feet, separated by roads 18 in
ches wide, running north and
south and east and west. Seven
vegetables, representing fami-
liee, are grown in each of these
plots. Each plot belongs to an
individual boy or girl. Each has
a tag with his name and the num
ber of the plot on it. . This tag
is eis deed to the plot. If he
loses his tag he loses his plot for
no duplicate tags are given, s>
the children are very careful with
their plot deeds.
The children are assigned tl^iese
plots in May in order application.
Certain days are announced for
the assigning of plots and “Firsr.
come first served” is the rule.
The children do all the work un
der the diiectiun of expert teach
ers in Gardening and get ail the
products of their plot. On the
aiternoon of our visit they were
harvesting their snap beans.
Each child had one row across
his plot and each one of this
thousand children were getting
enough snaps to make a good
mess for an ordinary family. A
visit to the Garden together witli
the facts is necessary to show
the enthusiasm and pride these
little street brats take in the own
ership of their plots.
At the office of the gardens
there is a long platforn?j, with an
awning over it, which serves as
a stage. Here twelve girls,
members of the Housekeepers’
section, cooked and served the
beets, nnions, lettuce; and other
vegetables grown on their plots.
They, sat at the table with the
pride of a princess and were glad
to have their dishes sampled. At
the other end of the platform
some boys got to work with saw
and hammers and made house
hold furniture and other useful
articles out of packing boxes.
The principles of Gardening
are applied constantly to the lives
of these tenement people.' To
preserve to neatness of the gar
den the Children are taught to
gather stones and trash and
wheelbarrow them away. In do
ing this and in keeping the 18
inch paths in order they are
tai?ghtto think about streets and
rcad^ .and tiransportation.
Tiiig individual plot develops
de«ire for personal effort for per
sonal profit The common ser
vice teaches community welfare.
The repfcaied thinning of vege
tables to secure for them space,
sunlight and air is repeatedlg ap
plied to their own lives. They
were teaching these children real
ideal life.
In the Thomas Jefferson Park,
near the garden, was a play
ground for ,|the children. Here
they were provided with swings,
see saws, banks of sand, ball
grounds &c and what struck me
especially was a long slanting
wooden trough down which the
little tots slid into a bank of sand.
Here I remembered the red gul
ly bank on which we Alamance
boys wo’^e out the seat of our
pants.
If in the minds of any nf the
visitors, there was a doubt as to
the need of these play grounds
and gardens it vanished forever
when we walked through the I-
talian districts from which these
play ground and Garden children
came. There on the side walks
beneath the windows of the 8 to
12 story tenement house, appar
ently without a shaddow of par
ental restraint, hundreds of bare
headed, poorly clad, dirty child
ren loafed, played and fought.
So crowded were the streets with
fruit and confectionery stands,
passers, children and filth that
one found his way with difficul
ty.
Thank God that the Alamance
boys and girls are growipg into
strong manhood and womanhood
on the very thing for which the
New York City children are starv
ing— the ideal country home.
J, Harrison Allen.
UHGENT NEED
FUR FUNDS
' The Superintendent of the
North Carolina Children’s Hon^e
Society has arrived in Greensboro
from a three-week’s business trip,
outside tiie state, and makes the
astonishing statement that with
in the past four days 18 new
children have been received, 9 of
them in one bunch iMt evening.
Two more are to arrive today and
two tomorrcw* making 22 in six
days. Dming the same period
he reports placement of seven
chil^n in homes and others will
be pla(^d rapidly.
These statements show the
bright side of the work of the
Spciety and illustrate the oft-re
peated fact that, if supplied with
mpney to pay the expenses of the
Work, it has the ability other-
-^se to meet all demands.
Money is necessary. The bona
fide rnohthly expense budget at
present is only $700, with" which
the Society can handle an aver
age of one new child a day—the
average that it has asked to pro
vide fOr for a whole year; yet,
the June 1912 income-was $430.-
55, and till last night the entire
July income was only $49,00. I
Now the Daily News knows by I
several years of intimate aequa-!
intance with the work of thej
Society that it is in every w’ay:
worthy of the most generous suy |
port of our people. It is doing a}
distinct and separate work from
that of any of the institutional
orphanages; and but for its zeal
and activity, a work that wonld
not be done. But look at the
foregoing financial showing—
$574.55 contributed in six weeks!
We also know that almost every
dollar of that had to be called for
in person by a salaried represen
tative of the Society—requiring
more thar. one third of the fund
collected to maintain these repre
sentatives.
Doubtless hundreds of readers
of the Daily News would gladly
contribute if called on; why not
save expense to the Society and
send the money direct to the sup
erintendent or to this paper, and
we will turn it over—and, send
it now while the need is so great.
Your personal contribution may
save a life from a hopeless and
useless existence and make of it
a worthy man or woman whose
achievements will bless others
and make the world a better place
to live in.—Greensboro
News of July 15, 1912.
Who Will Be the Next Pre«deot—-

We take pleasure in announc
ing that any of our readers can
secure the above vest pocket
book free of charge by sending
2c. for postage to D. Swift and
Co„, Patent Lawyers, Washing-
top, D. C. This book contains
tables showing which states each
presidential ^ndidate carried in
1908, the number of Democrats
and Republicans elected by each
state to Congress in 19fe and
1910, the leading events of the
life of each, l^esident, from
Washington to Taft. It s^lso
gives the population of each statie
according to the Census reports
of 1890, 1900 and 1010, the j^pu-
lation of about 20 of the largest
cities in each state, a calendar
for 1912 and 1913 and much oth-,
er useful infonnation.

Is Coventor Blease a Grafter?
The long-drawn out quarrel be
tween Governor Cole Blease of
South Carolina and Hon. Thomas
B. Felder, of Atlanta, took a sen
sational turn Friday when the in
vestigation of the old dispensary
fraud cases was renewed at Au
gusta, Ga. A dispatch from Au
gusta says:
Detective William J, Burns,
was the star witness today before
the special investigating commit
tee of the South Carolina legisla
ture which instituted its probe
here today into the old state dis
pensary system. The hearing
was primarily called to take the
testimony of Thomas E. Felder,
the Atlanta attorney, who repre
sents the commission which
wound up the dispensary affairs
Testifying at tonight’s session
of the hearings. Detective Burns
asserted that records which will
be introduced by his men would
show ‘‘whether or not Gov. Cole
L Blease of South Carolina, has
been grafting as Governor and
State Senator. ”
Evidence taken by a telephon
ic device and personally by a
Burns’detective was submitted
today purporting to show that
Governor Blease secured $2,000
for pardoning Rudolph Rabon,
convicted, of harboring stolen
goods. Testimony from the same
source was to the effect that Gov
ernor Blease received $^0 for
blocking railroad legislation, $200
for thwarting the first attempt
made in the dispensary investi
gation and that the Governor geta
his share of the blind tiger “pro
tection” money from Charles
ton.
‘Tom” Taggart is unable to
tell a Congressional investigating
committee how much the Demo
cratic campaign of 1904 cost, but
the fact remains that it was not
enough to overcome the amount
raised for Roosevelt by tilie late
Mr. Harriman and his friends.
Terrible Picture oi Sofferlng
Clinton, Ky>—Mrs. M, C. Me
Elroy, in a letter from Clinton,
writesFor six years, I was a
sufferer from female troubles. I
could not eat, and could not stand
on my feet, without suffering
great pain, I had lost hope. After
using Cardui a week, I began to
improve. Now I feel better than
in six years.” Fifty years of
success in actual practice, is
positive proof, furnished by those
who have used it, that Cardui
can always be relied ots for re
lieving female weakness and
di'^ease. Try Cardui, today, now!
Spit, W, Ffl.
Hines, Ala.—In a letter from
this place, Mrs. Eula Mae Brad
ley says: ‘ 1 used to spit up all I
ate. I was tired and sleepy all
the time. My head ached, and
I could hardly drag around. Since
taking Cardui, this has entirely
quit, and now I feel quite fit.”
Mrs. Bradley suffered from ner

If the nervous system, and
strengthens the womanly consti
tution. That’s why Cardui help
