DRY BY BIG MAJORITY
Rev. J. D. McAlIister Says
Anti-SaIOOn Forces Have
Things Their Own Way

RICHMOND, VA, Nov. 19.-Rev. ].
ID. McAnister. secretary of the State
Anti-salcon League, was shown today
a statement which appeared in the
Ledger Dispatch Of Norfolk yester-
day. to the effect that that city would

necessary to call TOT a Statewide
prohibition election, and intimating
that the petition would be presented
at the next session of the general as
sembly.
The name of the speaker was not
given, but he was declared to be one
of the men high up in the councils
of the State Anti-saloon League.
After Mr.. McAHister had read the
statement from Norfolk. in hasty
manner. he said, That man talks like
q Democrat"
Asked then regarding the conflicting
reports concerning the attitude of the
league, the position of the Methodist
conference, and stories appearing in
the newspapers, Mr.. McAllister said,
yoicing what he thought to be the
position CT the league in the matter
at this time:
We are settled in our minds that
it is the best thing for the people to
vote on the question Statewide pro-
hibiioa) and not to have direct leg
isiatiye enactment. To this end we
want a submission act of some char
acter'
Mr.. McAllister then alluded to the
annual convention Of the Anti-saloon
eague in this city Jan 1920. and ex-
pressed his opinion as follows:
Il believe that the coming State

possibly leave il to. the legislative
committee Of the league to work out
the plan and to present it to the leg
islature"
Says State Will Vote "Dry."
Mr. NcAIlister was asked regarding
his belief as to the outcome Of sub
mission Of the question Of Statewide
prohibition to the people OF Virginia
lie did not hesitate to declare what ne
Thought would be the outcome, saying
that the officers Of the league had
taken every precaution and thought
they we're safe in making their es-
Inmates Of strength in the various
counties and cities. He said that for

nected with the league had been

ports OF their observation. after test
ing sentiment. we're that there VAS
no reason to doubt that the sentiment
had been gagged accurately. Mr. Nc
Aister said:

Dear School Officer: You recall,
if you are not new member, that
about a year ago a circular letter
was sent out from this office, en-
couraging school officers to have
parents or guardians comply with
compulsory education law. In a
number of districts this effort was
attended with marked results.
While the results were gratifying
the efforts nevertheless fell short Of
accomplishing all that was desired.
By this and other persistent efforts
we succeeded in increasing the num-
Der of pupils entitled to apportion-
ment nearly 200. and thus our coun-
ty will receive from $500 to $500
more state money. Our enrolment
the past year was % more than the
year previous. Our total increase
In days attended was 3774S. This
shows that the attendance increased
$40. believe we can and should
increase that record considerably
this year. We can do so only, how
eyer, if all officers line up to their
obligation by seeing to it that all
children Of school age are attending.
At this season of the year all
children should be in school unless
excused by the school board for
causes as stipulated by law. Unless
valid excuses can be advanced, all
children between the ages of 8 and
Is years must attend school, proyid-
ed they have not completed the COM
mon branches. Please note that the
age limit has been extended from
16 to Is.
believe that, if officers will inter
view parents who are not complying
with the law, prosecutions will not
be necessary. However, if they will
not comply. boards are obliged and
justified to prosecute.
Hoping that you will gladly enlist
your influence in the interest of our
boys and girls, | remain,
Very truly yours,
H. j. BEBERMEYER,
County Supt.

WILL COST FIVE THOUSAND.
Such Is the Estimated Expense of Sur
veying the Minnesota River.

New Ulm Review:
The cost of surveying the Mime
sofa river by the corps Of engineers
sent out by the Minnesota state
drainage commission. under George
A. Ralph, state drainage engineer,
will approximate $4,000, depending
on the time required and the obsta-
cles to be overcome. If conditions
are advantageous the work might be
done for $500.
Mr.. Ralph has force of only three
men at work on the survey now but
expects within a few days to increase
the number to seventeen. Not more
than seventy or eighty days, it is
figured, will be required to complete
the survey, as this IS the most favor
able time of the year to attempt
such an undertaking, the engineers
being greatly facilitated by the pres
ence of ice on the river.
The Minnesota river in the vicinity
Of Big Stone lake has already been
surveyed, and the work will be car
ried on to the confluence with the
Mississippi below Fort Smelling.
When the work, which is expected
to follow the surveying, is complet-
ed the Minnesota will be navigable
from the Mississippi river to Big

Teachers to Seattle.

At the meeting of the Minnesota
State Educational Association, held
in Minneapolis, December 20, K. M.
Jones of Litchfield, Secretary of the
Association, presented an invitation
from the Alaska Yukon-Pacifc Ex-
position to the members to visit
Seattle next summer during the ex-
position period. Asimilar invitation
was presented to the Minneapolis
Educational Association by Mrs. C.
Schultz, president, at the meeting
held in St. Paul December %. The
invitation points out that the vaca-
ton time of 1909 comes wholly with
in the dates of the exposition, which
opens June l and closes October 16.
Attention is also called to the edu-
cational advantages to be gained
from such a trip and to the low rail-
road rates to Pacific Northwest
points during the time Of the expo
sition.

direct contact with the resources,
conditions and progress, not only of
the Pacific Slope" reads the invita-
ton, "but also of Alaska, the Cana
dian Northwest, Hawaii, the Philip
pines and the Orient, all Of which
will be exhibited here on scale ney-
err before attempted. Three weeks
spent on such a trip allowing a full
week at the exposition and ample
time for scores Of enlightening ex-
cursions and side trips, will yield
more accurate knowledge than can
be acquired in years Of reading.
This exposition is built on the
campus of the University Of Wash
ington. AS a result of Seattle and
Washington enterprise the Universe
ty will come into more than S2,000,-
900 worth of permanent improve
ments, including eight permanent
buildings, eleven miles of graded
and asphalt-paved streets, many
acres of beautiful gardens and a
complete system of underground
work."
No words fair in history was ever
so far advanced at similar period
as the Alaska ukon-Pacific EXPOSE
ton will be complete when the gates
are formally opened to the public
next June. Already the grounds
have the appearance of a great

The Silver City Enterprise has
the following to say about the
commencement address delivered
by Ralph c. Ely at the close OF
the Normal school in that city:
1t is not too much to say that
Mr.. Ely delivered one of the best
addresses ever heard here on Q
similar occasion. He is a mag.
netic speaker TO begin with anc
he had a message to deliver
which he did deliver in a kindly
but earnest manner and which
left no room for doubt in the
minds Of the auditors, that the
speaker believed firmly what he
said and presented his argument
in a mastery manner. Mr.. Ely
spoke of the practical education,
his contention being that our
public school system was a rigid,
inelastic thing rendered so by
the demands of our colleges and
higher institutions of learning
which imposed a certain curri-
culum of study, largely of an inn
pra teal nature, upon the lower OF
secondary schools, as an entrance
contingent in the higher schools.
This system of making the many
pursue the studies that really be-
longed only to the few who en-
ter college had so warped our
public schools, that education to-
day was largely impractical and
did not fit the boy or girl whose
education ends with the high
school, to cope with the material
duties of life. This was why,
explained Mr.. Ely, our high
schools every year are gradual
ing so many more girls than
boys.
The boys, realizing that what
they were studying was not of
a practical nature and would not
help them to make good machin.
lists, good stone-masons or good
business men, quit the school
when they get along about the
ninth or tenth grade and buckle
out into life to learn something
practical. Mr.. Ely argued that
our public school system needed
two things in order to become
more valuable and more practi-
cal-it must be emancipated from
the colleges and higher institu-
tions of learning and must be
given greater elasticity in ordt r
to fit the individual pupil, in de-
veloping a strong personality
and thus helping the pupil to
find what particular life-work
he is best fitted for.
This was Mr.. Ely's first public
appearance in Silver City and he
can be assured Of a hearty well
come from Silver City audience
should occasion ever call him this
way again.
