passed by the Minnesota legislature
which went into effect today. as vel
as that OF the two-cent passenger fare
measure, which became effective a

circular makes a strong plea for
thorough education OF everybody in
the common branches and, as an ulti-
mate end, he advocates a system
that will give every boy and girl a
chance for an education IN any line

Rnie's having served as the president
OF the Teachers Association shows
that he stands high with the teach.

tical school man appeals to the yot.

upon a practical, English. scientific,
modern language basis"
