NO SCHOOL ROWS THERE
INDIANA SYSTEM DOESN'T PERMIT
SUCH POSSIBILITY
One Man Has the Full and AbsoIute
control in Each District-Super-
intendent PenderGaSt Tells How
the System WOrks-In Many
Ways He Thinks 1t a Grand One.

W. W. Pendergast, superintendent of
public instruction, returned yesterday
from Chattanooga, Tenn, where he at
tended the superintendent section of
the National Educational association.
In discussing the school systems in
other states he said:
while away I had excellent oppOr-
tun1ty Of studying the workings of the
Indiana system and was quite sur
prised at the methods employed in that
state.
In the place of the county super
Vfsors, each town elects a trustee, who
not only acts as a whole board of trus-
tees of the town, but also attends to
the other affairs of the county, such as
building roads and making permanent
improvements, as the people of that
state believe that education and prog
ress should go hand in hand. This trus-
tee builds the school houses, hires the
teachers, In fact he performs all the
| functions of the board Of trustees.
There is so much power given to
this one man that in many places he is
designated as king by the people 1t
never occurs to the people down there
that he might take an arbitrary atti-
tude In matters pertaining to the pub
lie good. On the contrary the people
put such unlimited confidence in him
that sue a thing rarely, if ever, occurs
Under the Indiana system such a thing
as school row is impossible, as what
ever the trustee says is considered law
LAS rule the man elected to this
office in the country districts is a farm
er of rare good judgment. When the
time for election arrives everybody In
the town walks up to the ballot box to
assist in choosing the best man. The
practical workings Of the Indiana sys.
tenn is evidenced by the fact that In
diana is accredited with having more
red school houses in the country than
any state in the Union.
There is a healthy rivalry between
the towns to see which will secure the
best trustee, and in consequence the
best schools. The trustees of all the
towns constitute a board of trustees
with functions similar to the county
commissioners in this state.
we have taken some steps here in
Minnesota in this direction. At the
last legislature law was passed pei
hitting country towns to adopt what is
known as the township system. This
fall many towns will vote on the PROMO
sition at the regular election. In Mas
sachusetts the township system has al
ready been adopted as a state law
there.
"Of course 1t would not be desirable
to change our system all at once, and
indeed 1 think we have a very desirable
system as it Is, yet I think there is
much that is desirable in the indiana
system.
I'VE can feel our way along. and If
the majority of the towns adopt the
township law, we can then make fur
Their advances In this direction.
During my visit in the South I visit
ed schools in Georgia and Indiana, and
think that we have the best schools in
Minnesota to be found any place in
the United States. Our rural school
buildings are undeniably better than
those of any other state"

WOMAN'8 DRAWBACK,
Business Men Cannot Depend on
Women for Help.
They Are III Too Often Because NeoHge1t
Of Their Heath-A Business
WOman's Telling Words.
From the Free Press, Detroit. Mich

From the Free Press, Detroit. Mich
The greatest drawback today with
women that work in the stores and
factories is that they do not take the
right care of their health. Business
men frequently say they can't depend
on women because they are Ill too
often. If every young woman would
take the right care of herself. this COM
plant would never be heard.
Many thousands Of young women are
working, suffering agonies that would
force a man to sick bed. They bear
their fortunes in snence because Of
their Unborn mOdesty and blame their
mother for not advising them
Mrs. G. W. Mansfield, Of So Farrar
street, Detroit, Mich, Is a business
woman, and a successful one, too. EN-
ploying many young women and hav-
ing years of experience in the business
world She is in position to speak Of
women who earn a livelihood.
For years" she says, Il suffered in
silence and was so worn out at night
that L could not sleep. 1 visited a fe-
male specialist who said ! had a COM
plicatiOn of ailments peculiar to WOm-
en-. l could not find relief from her
remedies and had tried so many kinds
of medicine that l had given up all
hope Of ever getting better
L was given a box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People by a young
lady in my employ The first box gave
me much relief, and | was able to rest
at night for the first time in many
months.
81 then bought more pills and think
must have used a dozen boxes in
my own case, but have given away
to suffering women double that
amount. Without a doubt these pills
are q good medicine, for they cured
me and have cured several people to
my knowledge.
II think that if you should ask any
Of the druggists of Detroit who are
the best buyers of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, they would say
the young women.
'These pills certainly build up the
nervous system, and many a young
woman owes her life to them.
LAS a business woman / am pleased
to recommend them, as they did more
for me than any physician, and l can
give Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People credit for my general good
health today"
No discovery Of modern times has
proved such boon to women as Dr..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
Acting directly on the blood and
nerves, invigorating the body, regulat-
ing the functions, they restore the
strength and health to the exhausted
woman, when every effort of the ply
stefan proves unavailing.
For the growing girl they are of the
utmost benefit, for the mother fndis-
pensable, for every woman invaluable.
Everywhere DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People are recognized as
specific for diseases of the blood and
nerves. For paralysis, locomotor ataxia
and other diseases long supposed in
durable, they have proved their efflca-
cy in thousands of cases. They are
one of the greatest blessings ever be-
slowed upon mankind.

met nearly all the large firms in st.
Paul applied for reduction in the
amount of personal property assessed
against them. The board, instead Of
reducing the amount, increased 1t con-
siderably. The firms are now praying
to have their assessment reduced to its
original figures.
1t is understood that the cases passed
upon by Auditor Dunn yesterday after
noon were only part, as the applica-
lions made for reduction before the
board of arbitration included nearly all
the business houses in the city.
State Auditor Dunn, by his action
yesterday, refuses to become party to
an action undoing the work Of the last
board Of equalization. He declines to
believe that the board acted either IL
legally or arbitrarily In the matter. He
thinks the boards acted in good faith
In apportioning the city assessments,
and stated that he would stand by
them.

Dairy Department Pleased With
MfnnesOta's Success at Topeka.
j. A. Lawrence, assistant dairy and food
commissioner, said yesterday, in speaking of
the showing made by the Minnesota product
at the Topeka Buttermakers' association:
1T certainly was a great victory. If Min
nesota has taken first prize at a fair little
would be said about it, but when it comes to
a national competition 1t amounts to some
thing: 1t will give Minnesota butter more
prestige, not only in Minnesota and the
Northwest, but abroad
The department feels elated over the mat
ter, and looks upon 1t as signal victory
for all Minnesota dairy products
We feel well repaid for our assistance in
sending the exhibit to Topeka, and feel high
ly gratlfied over the showing"
