Hoover Has Proved Utadsrship Tha quality of Hoover's leader¬ ship requires uo experimenting. It la a demonstrated fact But of what value Is experle In the management ot publia fairs?

The great issue Is to develop this country to a point where every man and woman has the opportunity both to work and to play. Wo have proved that wages can be made high. We have now to prova that they cau be continu¬ ously paid—tliat there will be no per! )Js of up.employmeiit over which the w-orkor cannot finance him.selt. No man is vUe enou;;h to say how the future should be planned. Bat we have right at hand many enormous developments w-hich will keep all of us busy. Transportation Brings Prosperity This country could not have de¬ veloped withou: transporta-.ion. That gava us national markets. These are mass markets, and thus we have heen able to use bettar methods ot manufacturing and get higher wages and lower prices. The flrst^rapid transportation came through the railroads. Then camo the automobile. The motor ve¬ hicles wero at flrst thoug'at to be competitors ot the railroads, but no-A- we know that they flt in to¬ gether. Businesi breeds business, and now wo have not eno.igh trans IKiriation. We must use the great Waterways that have been put here for us to US'! both tor tranapiurt an.l tor power. Damming them tor power improves tliem tor trana- porlation. Besides, the accumula¬ tion of theso l-.ir^je bodies ot water assists tlM! rainfall. We have the Great Lake.< and the Mississippi partly iu use, but they are doins only a fraciion ot what they can Scouts Have First Aid Tent At Fair The first aid tent conducted by ihe Boy Scouts of Veteran Troop .Vo. 1.
