That's No Lie.

Money is one of mans best friends,
but how to acquire it is the question.
Come and see us and talk it over. We
have real estate to sell, want to sell it.
That's the way we make our living.
We believe those who buy now in East
Texas of us will find our judgment
good, and that you will make a great
deal of money out of it. It is the right
time to invest. A decided business re-
vival is at hand. The question is,
What shall you do with your money to
invest to get the greatest profit?
Stocks are unreliable. Daily events
prove it. Real estate is safe and now
profitable. "Prompt action is neces-
sary." We have some good invest
ments worthy of your investigation.

as they show France has directly and
through Russia adopted all available
means to insure the respect OF neu-
trality OF French waters. officials say
the only additional measure open is
to use French warships to employ force
in expelling Rojestvensky's squadr
Such a course. however. Is said TO be
impossible owing to the smaller num-
Der of French ships in Indo-Chinese
waters. Moreover as an official re-
marked France is not I'm the habit of
resorting TO such extreme measures
as using force. This is particularly
true in the case OF Russia, owing 10
the complications which might arise
from France adopting forcible steps
against Russia. Therefore, Instructions
already given from Paris and st. Pc
tersburg are relied upon to prevent
Admiral Rojestvensky from encroach-
ing upon French territorial waters.
A telegram received here from st.
Petersburg and understood to be from
the official organ says: THE Russian
admiralty has notified Admiral Rojest-
vensky OF the grave danger 10 peace
which will be entailed sc the stay of
his squadron off the coast of Abnam IS
prolonged contrary to laws of neutral

structions sent to him"
DR.. Motono. in the course OF an in
terview said his request was that
France observe neutrality by adopting
all necessary measures for preventing
Admiral Rojestvensky's squadron
from remaining any longer in French
territorial waters at Kamranh Bay.
The minister added that Russian ships
were quite inside OF French waters and
not outside.
Japan's representation has had the
effect OF bring the France Japan Incl

We. therefore. insist that the Rouvie-

and the maintenance Of peace. All
France agrees that the government

Secret societies. elaborate class day and
graduating exercises. the expensive class
parties and matters OF this kind are not
conducive. 1t seems to me, to the best in
terests of the schools. The high schools.
in order to be what they should be, must
be kept in touch with the common people,
and the large number of poor students
should not be allowed to feel that they are
of different class from the rich and must
take their places accordingly. This Is a
matter which necessarily, In a large de-
gree, is In the hands of parents and with
which neither Che board of education nor
the school authorities in general can in
terfere except to the extent OF advice and
suggestion. 1t is, however, not only in our
city. but In other cities, question OF
growing Importance.
I'm this sar connection the matter OF
athletics cannot be overlooked. That 1t
has come to stay in both universities and
high schools. Is not open to dispute. and
that 1t has its good points In the develop
ment OF the boy or girl goes without say
ing.
at Is unfortunate, however. that those
boys and girls who are most In need of
physical training are the ones who. under
the present system. get little or none OF It
from the high schools.

tween the different schools has not been

Athletics at St. Paul.
The Athletic Association OF the public
schools Of St. Paul Is governed by regula-
tons. the most important of which relates
to the selection of teams and their man
agernent. Captain Smith says upon this
subject:
'sTho members Of the several teams shall
be chosen as follows: The association shall
submit to the principal a list OF the names
of those who are eligible for membership

terests should come to some extent under
the direction of the committee. 1t would
be unwise to wait until troubles arise to
compel its intervention.
While wisely regulated field athletics fur
nish excellent physical training. this train
ing Is limited to the 100 students, more or
less. who engage in them. The great body
of students are left without physical train
ing OF any sort. Something should be
done to meet their needs. Some competent
physical training director should be en-
ployed to arrange and supervise some regu-
lar system of training for all high school
pupils, indeed for all pupils Ia the public
schools. If fitted for the work. he might
be given the management of the athletic
teams of both grammar and high schools
at the proper season. He should be select
ed by the school authorities. be paid In
whole or in part by them, and be under
their direction and control The person with
all the qualifications demanded may be
difficult to find but when found, his serv-
ices would certainly be of great value. The
whole subject Is commended to the consid-
Grafton of the board
System at Minneapolis.
In the annual report of the board Of edu-
cation of Minneapolis Superintendent Jor-
dan has this to offer:

some OF the high schools toward initiating
