Mr.. Race, who had just returned
from a meeting of the Wisconsin
superintendent at Madison, Wis,
gave a brief but interesting report
of his visit and of his meeting with
Platteville people there. AS is al
ways true in a gathering of Red
wood county teachers, the presence
of Mr.. and Mrs. Race added much
to the pleasantness and enthusiasm
of the occasion.
After the banquet an hour was
spent in visiting, renewing old ac-
quaintances and making new, and in
singing college songs. The Mime
sofa Song" was sung with enthu-
siasm. The spirit of the whole
occasion was one of love for Wiscon-
sin and its institutions, but of equal
loyalty and devotion to Minnesota
and its school system.
Those who had charge of the ban
quet are to be congratulated upon
its success, and the wish was often
expressed that the gathering might
become an annual affair.

'With reference to the question

[ beg to state that there positive
ly exists an organized move
ment of this sort, which could
only be discovered, however, by
travelling to and fro between the

women is aided by corrupt police
officials, hotel porters, and keep

fort to learn our language nor our

think of ever becoming citizens or
to contribute in the least to fur

do take the oath of citizenship it
is only because it facilitates their
purposes here and protects them
abroad in legal or illegal occu-
pations. (,
