PERSONAL POPULARITY
PASSED THE NORMAL BILL
Majority Of Legislators Who Voted for Cass Lake Cared
Little for Fitness Of that Place; Liked
McGarry and Gum.

River Falls, Park Rapids and Wad-
ena; all mighty good towns, were
candidates.
That it did not is a strong til
butte to the valient endeavors and
personal popularity Of the champions
of the bill, Senator D. M. Gum Of
Grand Rapids and Representative
P. Fl. McGarry of Walker. Repre-
sentative I. M. Ferguson of Bar
ker also did good work for the bill
In the house, but Cass Lake is in
Mr.. McGarry's county, and he made
his appeals to the members largely
personal matter.
The bill had hard going all
through. On every motion affecting
it the vote has been close, and on
final passage it got just enough votes
to get it through the senate and just
enough votes to get it through the
house. This was an indication of
how hard the fight was. Had Be-
midi, Cass Lakes principal oppo-
nent, been represented by as popular
a man as Mr.. McGarry, the result
might have been very different.
Because of the peculiar nature of
the contest, and the fact that Cass
Lake had an uphill road all the way
through, the interest in the measures
has been out of proportion to its
intrinsic Importance, and no meas
ure before the legislature has been
watched with keener interest. Those
who like a good fight, and who like
to see a good fighter win, were
pleased with the outcome, no matter
how they voted.''

visits to points in Illinois and Wis

Mr.. Mackenzie purchased large

That the bill to establish the sixth
state normal school at Cass Lake was
passed as a personal favor to P. II.
McGarry and Dan Gum, aud not
for any real merit which the village
of Cass Lake possesses as the best
location in north-central Minnesota,
is admitted on all sides. Even the
close personal friends of P. II. Nc
Garry and the others of the Cass
Lake supporters admit this, as wit
ness the following, which was sent
from st. Paul to the Duluth Evening
Herald by Stillman H. Bingham, the
legislative correspondent of the Her
aid, who has always been a booster"
for Cass Lake:
The passage of the Cass Lake
normal school bill through the house
yesterday afternoon, which made
its last step in the legislative pro-
cess before it goes to the governor,
for his Signature, was one of the
most conspicuous personal victories
ever won in the Minnesota legisla-
ture.
While no convincing arguments
against the suitability of Cass Lake
as the site for the new normal
school were presented, few of the
members of either body knew any
thing about it personally, and be-
cause of that it must be admitted
that the general bill, leaving the
selection of the site to the state
normal school board, would be ex-
pected to receive the preference,
especially as Bemidji, Warren, Thief

TURNER'S ART EXHIBIT
WAS MERITORIOUS ONE
The Children OF the Local Schools
Showed They Possess Talent, in
Marked Degree.

The display of the drawing work
performed by the children of the
city schools, which was given Friday
and Saturday during the Turner Art
Exhibit, brought out new phase
of education as well as showing
what excellent work the pupils are
doing.
The old Interpretation of edu.
cation was embraced by the three
RS (Reading, Riting," and
"Rithemetic") but today the ma
jority of the people have arrived at
a truer conception of education and
now our ideas could much better be
expressed with three HIS Head,
Heart. and Hand.
If, as someone has said, TO edu-
cate is to fit one to live-a joy to
himself and benefit to mankind
the head, heart and hand must be
made to cooperate. To day the
object of education is to not only
teach the dignity of labor but the
most beautiful way of performing
the commonest duties of life-fronn
laying the foundation of a building
to putting on the finishing touches
and decorating it. The best educa.
tors of today believe that the three
HIS will do this when properly com.
bined and this is why we believe
the present idea of education is the
truer one.
The work of the students in the
different grades of our schools. under
the direction of Miss Donaldson
represents a wide range of subjects
as shown in the display. The tech
nique throughout the grades was
strong and we'll calculated to develop
clear, Imaginative and artistic hand
ling of the brush OF crayon.
In the upper grades the work run!

Since they moved from Bemidji
to st. Paul Mr.. and Mrs. Pen
dergast have made many friends in
St. Paul, and espe cially is this true
relative to the members of the G.
A. R. camps and the circles. Both
Mr.. and Mrs. Pendergast are highly
thought of everywhere they have
lived and the reception which will
be given them next Saturday night
is undoubtedly an enthusiastic out
burst of appreciation of their true
worth.

are used with equal facility by a
great many of pupils. In the dis
play or work from the lower grades
the industrial phrase of an art educa-
ton were more marked.
The accomplishments of the pri-
mary children of less than two years
schooling is certainly extraordinary.
By their mat and yarn weaving,
constructive paper work, free hand
cutting, creative illustrations, etc.,
in which the small pupils are now
finding enjoyment, they are gaining
a conception of the beauty in COM
mon things"
The decorative treatment of fruit
flowers and landscapes and the
poster usage in painting views was
certainly fine. As an observer truly
remarked, the apples looked good
enough to eat and the churches
made you feel pious, while the illus
trations in April made you look
around for your umbrella. Excel
lent monochromes, in two and three
color landings, were displayed, as
were examples of the children's work
in binding and cover illustra-
tons. Decorative patterns for
dishes, Egyptian freizes, wintergreen,
arbutus and other native plants and
flowers were among the subjects
which the children had drawn under
the direction of their instructor, Miss
Donaldson. The subjects on which
the pupils work are closely con-
nected with the seasons and the
holidays.
Miss Hayden's seventh grade
pupils have certainly done some
wonderful work in making product
maps of every country with bits of
wool, cotton, metals and grain s
pasted On the parts of the countries
where these products are found.
The same children have also a fine
exhibition of relief maps in CLAW of
the different continents which have
been unusually we'll constructed.
Miss Munger's pupils are fine in
| creative work, illustrating the Mother
Goose ryhmes, ETC., and Miss Wess-
| berg's paper construction work is
certainly excellent.
There are some people who think
their children, and especially the
boys, are wasting time when putter-
ing with paints making pictures
but Miss Donaldson stated to a
representative of the Pioneer that
her best pupils in drawing and paint.
/ ing are boys, that the latter seem to
have clearer conceptions and more
| imagination in this line of work than
the girls. Anything which tends to
make life more beautiful should be
studied and cultivated.
