Reports from the rural district school
elections indicate that in some quar-
tiers there was not much interest mani
tested in getting out the vote. Par
ticularly was this noticeable in Logan

township board by Frank. Gowdy. Mr..
Gowdy is president Of the board and
when the time for the election came
he was the only voter present. He
declared the election open and waited.

Gowdy, to succeed himself. and when

declared the election at an end and
Frank Gowdy elected. Mr.. Gowdy
thinks that school politics in Logan

We spend some ten millions of
dollars a year more than any other
country in the world in carrying
our mails, and most of this excess
sive expenditure goes to pay for
the unremunerative work of deliv-

size, and England's remarkable ef-
iciency in handling her mails, the
mail routes of the United States
are some 5000 miles longer than

a statement in The Call that it was
a great surprise to the Superin-

so great a deficiency existed in the
matter of spelling among the pu-
pills of the Fargo High School. In
order to test the proficiency of the
pupils, a list of Is words was given
for spelling, and the list comprised
words in common use as follows
College, transitive, excel, paro-
chial, hemmorhage, conscience, ar
ticle, criticism, icicle, physical, yer

After the test the pupils were
asked to 20 to a room where the
words had been written correctly
on a blackboard and to mark the
words misspelled. Many fell below
the 50 per cent mark, and very few
stood above 80 per cent. Indeed,
many children failed to catch"
all the errors and unwittinaly gave
themselves credit for q higher per
centage than their work warranted.
Specimens Of the papers showing
the incorrect spelling were printed
and the ~statement made that the
pupils were from the best homes
in thezcity, where pains-taking pa
rents endeavored to care for their
children. The.fault is claimed to
be due to insufficient instruction
in the school more than anything
else. The pupils we're bright, and
will compare in other attainments
favorably with the pupils Of other
cities. But the lack of knowledge
of the spelling Of common, as well
as uncommon English words, Ia
mentable apparent in the Fargo
schools, says The Call writer. And
possibly It is SO in the schools Of
other cities.
