School Board and Faculty Urge Pupils
10 Be Present First Day.

The public schools of Botti-
neau will open for the regular
yearly term on Monday, Sep
tember Z, and the school board
and teachers wish that as large
a number as possible be pres
ent on the opening day. Many
people have asked whether the
schools would open on Monday
or Tuesday of next week, be-
lieving as many do that next
Monday, the first Monday of
September, is a public holiday.
The first Monday of September
is public holiday in many of
the states but not in North Da-
kota. Labor unions and others
may observe that day in this
state but it is not legal holi-
day. Our schools will open
on Monday for enrolment and
classification. but of course
very little work will be done
that day.
The following is a list of
teachers for the coming year:
HIGH SCHOOL.
A. w. Smith, superintend-
ent.
Mary B. Flemington, prin-
cipa1.
Maud NJ. Blunt and Aletta
Olson, assistants.
GRADES.
Eighth and music, Mabel
E. Lund.
Seventh, Mildred Pulver.
Sixth, S. NJ. Nertrost.
Fifth, Clara ]. Olson.
Fourth, Clara E. Becker.
Third, Helga L. Swarstad.
Second, Elsie D. Burr.
First, Catherine NJ. Burr.
It is expected to add at least
one more, if not two additional
teachers sometime later in the
fall.
The high school will begin
at the old school building and
the grades also, except the fifth
and sixth grades, these will oc-
cupy the rooms in the opera
house for the present. 1t is
expected that the high school
building will be completed
about the first of November
and the entire high school
will be moved to the new
building and also two or three
of the grade rooms.

How He Does II.

Maxbass Monitor: p. Bertel-
son of Kenmare, is a heavy
advertiser. He always carriea
a page ad. in the Journal, and
sometimes he spreads to two
or three pages. Some people
wonder how he can afford to
do it, they don't understand
the fundamental operations of
an advertisement; they look at
the expense and refuse to
believe that business expansion
results from it. How can
afford to- pay it?' says Mr..
Bertelson; Come over to my
store and I'll show you, all my
clerks are busy selling goods
to customers who have been
brought to me by advertiser
ments. y
The man who wonders how
a live merchant can afford to
pay for a liberal newspaper
space; also wonders why times
are 50 dull, and he will keep
a-wondering till the crack-o-
doom, when the only wonder
is how a business man can
expect to do business with an
enterprising community with
out advertising.

Must Take Up Diversified Farming.

Omemee Herald: It's the di-
versified farming that counts.
We must come to it. The soon
er we do this the better it will
be for each individual farmer
and for the country. North
Dakota, and this section par
ticu1arly, can raise good crops,
but the reliance on small grains
alone will never make a coun-
try truly prosperous. 1t is not
a good business policy to de-
pend on a bunch of money,
coming i'm once a year, to pay
all running expenses. The
farm can be made to yield a
weekly cash income and then,
when threshing is over, there
will be no grocery bills to pay
and the net returns from the
crop will be greater. Profit by
the experience of the older
countries and gradually change
methods so that you will in a
year or two have a cash in
come the year around.
