The States Vagrancy.

Blanchard had occasion TO
address the sheriffs of the State
in reference To the enforcement
of the vagrancy law. The gov
ernor says:
complaint having been re-
ceived by me of the non-enforce-
ment of the vagrancy law in some
sections of the State, and the
unusual scarcity of labor arising
from idlenesS among IA certain
element of the floating popula-
ton having been brought to my
attention, l have deemed it wise
to address Il communication to
the sheriffs throughout the State
calling their attention to the
ACCESSIBILITY of "a strict enforce
ment of the law relating to
Migrants.
please see to 1t that this law
is enforced IN your parish. Let
Migrants be given to understand
that they must either work or
leave the parish. They can find
abundant employment at remun-
erative compensation in the
cotton and cane fields, in the
sugar and rice and lumber mills.
and in the thousands of other
industries in the State, so there
is no excuse for any to remain in
idIeness. Enforce the law Wig
orously."
This timely request has been
met with very general commenda-
ton. One who has resided in
agricultural districts fully COM
prehends the difficulties under
which the planters labor at the
period when crops are to be
gathered for the market. AT
this time when their services are
most needed, the hands, or at
least numbers of them, abandon
their crops and leave for the
towns and cities to secure odd
jobs for a livelihood or upon the
daily labor of the women of their
race TO feed them from the
lardcrs and tables of their white
employers. They naturally be-
come the loafers. gamblers and
criminals of the communities in
which they reside. They are vio-
lators of the law, menace to
peace and order, a dangerous
element to the people among
whom they reside.
These men and women, prin-
cipally negroes, are those who.
jump their crops, abandon the
farm homes and seek precarious
living in the towns and and cities.
Their habits are vicious and their
morals worse.
The request of Governor
Blanchard to enforce the law
vigorously. against this class is
opportune and timely. Officers
of the law can readily detect
these Migrants and should aid in
ridding communities of such
people, and thus force them to
seek an honest livelihood by labor
ON farms aud plantations where
their services are needed and
will be readily employed.
Winfield, fortunately, has few
of this undesirable population,
but what few there are should be
arrested and made to seek some
other locality. A vagrant who is
able to do manual labor will not
remain such for any length of
time when hunger and want
compel HIM to seek some honest
occupation. Enforce the vagrant
law vigorously.

THE WISH TLOOK

ber that woman's education should
under no circumstances go to the extent
of unsexing her, of making her discon
tended or irritated at homely duties, or
of creating a desire to initiate man,
as we not infrequently see even in the
matter of speech. Woman was never in
tended to be a bon camarad. Her high
est ambition and her most noble aspir-
alton make her mans helpmate, his So
lace, his joy, his children's mother and
through this the nation s bu!wark.

Dear Sir:-At the meeting of the

Atlanta, Georgia, last January, the
committee on increasing the number of
students at the Hebrew Union College"
presented report which when adopted
contained a number of recommendations
among which was the following:
''That the Rabbis in their respective
communities seek to create, through pub
lie utterance and personal influence, a
sentiment that will stimulate worthy
young men to choose the ministry as a
career, and to give them the necessary
academic prepaation looking to such
end. -

in this country has Great ed demand for
rabbis that makes it incumbent upon us
to use every proper effort TO increase
the number of students at the Hebrew
Union College. Of the 174 Congrega-
tions that now comprise the Union Of
American Hebrew Congregations, forty
are without ministers.
We ask you in the name of our sacred
cause to give us your assistance by pre-
pairing and sending us students to enter
the College to the end that these Congre-
cations, and the many others whose con-
dition is similar may be enabled to find
occupants for their pulipts. Cordially

sphere of higher education and that
when women must be paid as much as
men, then men will be employed. Be
that as it may the fact remains that in
the higher branches men are preferred,
while in the lower branches Of education
woman finds her most frequent demand.
Other professions are open to women
such as medicine and law, but the pecll-
liar characteristics of the female mind,
which Jordan desi gnates as 'being I'M
attracted by unsolved problems and in
ductive and 'inexact' Sciences" is to my
mind one Of the reasons that we seldom
hear of women making more than med
iocre success in these professions. One
finds exceptional cases, which, however,
prove the rule Should woman feel
that she may be one of these exceptional
instances, there is no reason to presume
that higher education will make her
mental characteristics different from the
rest of womankind. I may here say
however, that I am a firm advocate of the
higher education for those men and
women who choose one Of the learned
professions.
compelled to follow, such as office work
bookkeeping, SUcuOSfdpIy, cIc, Iccu
thorough common school grounding. To
less extent even is this needed in
tradeswomen, but no matter what de-
pendent occupation woman or man
follows, nothing less than good common
school education will satisfactorily equip
them for their life s work.
There are besides these a great many
occupations Of a purely feminine char
acter for which she may be employed at
salary, but her preparation for these
must be the same whether in her own
home or elsewhere. There are few
chosen ones who find their best en-
deavors in the world of literature. To
these the higher education is essential
and of the greatest value, and of these
few we make exception.
In conclusion let me clearly summarize
my views. A woman should have such
an education as will suit her best.
First according to her mental and
physical characteristics,
Second, in accord with her greatest
function namely, that of motherhood in
it's broadest sense,
Third, in fitting her 70 such career as
may be open to her by reason Of her
adaptability, and not in an attempt to
vie with men.
Such an education is anything but
limited; it should give her a rounded
life, one which will result, according t.

DIAMOND LAKE
II. w. Harris OfAtWateI
Found Death While
Out FiShind.

Louis w. Harris, a jeweler in
Atwater, drowned at Diamond Lake
last Sunday at about noon, the boat
having capsized in the strong wind.
The people in the eastern part of
the county were terribly shocked
last Sunday to hear of the untimely
death of Louis w. Harris, which
occurred in the manner stated.
With companion, Charles Hanson,
the unfortunate man left Atwater
early Sunday morning for a days
fishing at Diamond Lake. They
were fishing along the south shore
opposite the Peter Larson cottage.
Some little time after twelve
o'clock the boat capsized. The
wind blew quite hard and the waves
were running high. Both Harris
and Hanson started to swim for
shore. Hanson, however, became
tangled in the anchor rope and could
make no headway and clung to the
boat. Harris struck out sturdily
for the shore but had not gone far
when he was taken with cramps.
He called out, Help, can't make
it," Hanson called out, Just
minute, I'll be there Hanson
was not more than ten feet away
when Harris sank for the last time,
and Hanson could render no assist
ance. George Larson and Charles
Whitcomb were in another boat not
far away and pulled for the strug-
Cling men as fast as they could and
pulled Hanson into their boat.
Meanwhile Michael Wheeler ar
rived from the shore with a garden
rake and the lost man was found
after having been under water
about twenty minutes. His watch
stopped at 12:40 o'clock. He was
found near the shore and the water
was no more than six feet deep.
Hard work was done in attempts to
restore life. Thanks to the tele-
phone and automobile, DR.. Branton
of Atwater arrived on the scene
within half an hour of the accident,
but all efforts were in vain. The
body was taken to Charles F'ergu-
sons place near by, and to Atwater
in the evening.
The deceased was the third son
Of Joseph D. and Addie Harris,
early settlers on the north shore Of
Diamond Lake, and had attained
the age Of about forty years. He
had been in business at Atwater
about two years. He was previous
ly located at Ross, N. D. He leaves
to mourn him a wife and three chill
!dren, all boys: Lawrence, age IS;
Rubert, age IL; Dale, age 9 years.
His mother survives him, as do two
brothers and one sister-Frank
Harris of Spicer, Irving Harris of
Camden, WASH, and Mrs. Peter
Burns Of Kandiyohi. The stricken
ones command the sympathy of the
entire community.
! The funeral is held today. Ser
vices were conducted this morning
at the Presbyterian church in At
water by Rev. Akers. The inter-
ment takes place at the Oakside
. cemetery of Harrison.

terday publishes the following ac-
: count of the sad affair:
We learn that Mr.. Harris and
Charles Hanson had gone to Dia.

cursion. They decided to make
a catch for the noon day meal anc
went down to the beach and pushed
out the boat. The craft had no
