at the upper agency:
1 Dear Sir: Ihave been always
thinking about goiss to schoo!
when was about 2S years oil. and
SO continue trying my opinion
which way will I pursue, the old
fashion way or the white mans
way, and after thinking it over
my mind is, toward the new way;
| Well. [ went to school at the old
agency, OF which we always called
Ft. Berthold mission, about four
years. and by that l understood
few English language, which I
always use at any time. l know
that the English language is
spoken every part of whole world.
This reason I sent, my son at Ft.
Stevenson to get education.
Well I kept him there
about five years and then he re-
turn home and he attend i'll day
school about four years and didn't
get enough education. So he now
begin to think in attending the
college. Because he had a fine
hand to become a clerical.
So I send in the college this win
ter, at Dakota Business college,
Fargo, and have to pay with my
own money to acquire more know
ledge, which he will sometime
come hack and do what he can for
his people on this reservation.
The agent and superintendent are
both very anxious to see their
young men trying to advance his
interest while he in the college,
persume he will be good char
acter, and Of obedient and gentle
men i'll every way.
Any kindness they may render
him will be appreciate to me.
Please kindly put in the news
paper for me to organize my de-
:ision.

The correspondence carried on
by Senator Washburn with east
ern companies engaged i'll the in
dustry of clay manufacture shows
that wide interest has been
created in the North Dakota dis
coveries, and there is especial
qualification for the region of the
clay beds, in knowledge that the
deposits are practically inexhaus-
tible.
While the exploration of these
new clay deposits is in prelimin-
ary stage at present it is very
thoroughly realized.that, with the
tremendous resources of fuel
afforded by the Ignite coal beds,
potteries can be conducted at Will
ton alM i'll that vicinity with the
fuel problem wholly elimated. AS
the development of the North 'Da:
kota deposits is proceeded with it
becomes more apparent every day
that the clay and coal beds there
are destined to play an important
role in the Industrial history Of
the northwest.

THE HAY ASSOCIATION
NATIONAL CONVENTION NOW IN SEES
SION IN THIS CITY.
Many Matters of Importance Dis
cussed by the DeIegates-COm-
mittees Named.

About two hundred dealers and ship
pers in hay, forming the National Hay
Association, met yesterday morning in
Masonic Hall in their eighth annual con-
vention. The members represent all the
baled hay and straw dealers Of the great
hay-growing districts of the country.
When the hour for converting arrived
1920 Oclock-there was but a small repre-
sentation of delegates present These
quickly filed their credentials with the
secretary and the work of the convention
began. An elaborate programme had been
arranged for the opening session, but the
absence of some of the speakers made
changes necessary. President George g
Warren, of Saginaw. Mich, made the open
ing address. The Rev. ID. r. Lucas was to
have given the invocation, but in his stead
the Rev Allan B. Philputt acted. The ad-
dress on behalf of the State was delivered
by Attorney General Taylor for Governor
Durbin, who is attending the G. A. r. en-
campment at Cleveland. City Attorney
Kern took the place of Mayor Taggart on
behalf Of the city. John J. Appel spoke in
behalf of the Board of Trade and Secre-
tary Hunt fulfilled the duties of President
John NJ. Spann, of the Commercial Club.
In all these addresses great stress was laid
upon the good work the members of the
association had done in forming a trade of
v hich little is known by outsiders.
A response for the association was made
by F. F. Collins Of Cincinnati. President
Warren then read his report, in which

the act of the would-be assassin. Our SYM
pathy is extended TO the President in the
hour of his suffering. and our earnest
prayers are for his early recovery and that
he may be long spared to serve the people
he loves so well and whose hearts go out
to him and his devoted wife in affectionate
regard
The delegates seemed unwilling to again
resume work In the afternoon they were
delayed an hour in taking their seats.
The afternoon work consisted mostly of
the reading of committee reports. The first
of these was the membership committee, of
which John l.. Dexter, of Michigan, is
chairman. Mr.. Dexter spoke encouragingly
of the work done the past year. He said
that over one hundred new members had
been received into the organizations; that
many delinquent members had been
minded of the existence of the assOcia ton.
and that they were brought TO the fact that
they were i'm arrears for dues, which they
paid. and this brought them up to good
standing.
The committee on transportation. of
which w. III. Curley, of New York, is presi-
dent is an important one and has had much
work before it during the past year. Upon
this committee the work of getting reason
able shipping rates devolves 1t seemed
from Mr.. Curley's report that the shippers
