The Spaulding farm brought out

and commenced the seeding of wheat.
Many other farmers around here have
been out dragging in the fields for
several days past. The weather has
been warm and nice the past week
and the fields are said to be in fine
condition for putting in the seed. It
is not often that any seeding is done

In order to make the Easter yaca-
tlon so much longer, school was held
last Monday; thus enabling those who
wish TO do so, to go home on Thurs.
day morning. The vacation will last
until Tuesday morning. A number Of
students who have to help with the
spring work, will not return after the
vacation. We shall miss them; but
hope they will come back next year.
The Literary Society rendered
good program last Saturday evening.
There was lively debate on the
question: Resolved That Farm Life
Is Preferable to City Life. The af-
firmative proved victorious.
The large splendid Geological col
lection which has taken Mr.. Brown
many years to make, has been secur-
ed by North Star College. We feel
sure that there are few, if any of
the other Colleges in the state, that
have a more complete collection than
our school now will have. We feel
sure that the interest in Natural His
tory, especially Zoology, will be great
" increased. When the collection
will be placed in one of the rooms in
the new school building, it's real value
will be made apparent.
Three new number ten Remington
Typewriters have been ordered for
the school. We want to give our
operators the very best chance to be-
come efficient stenographers. Now
let the fire Of ambition stir on to
still better work. During the sum-
mer vacation we shall have several
new machines for rent at reasonable
rates. Those who apply first, have
first chance.

A PROCLAMATION.

Whereas by the Act of Congress ap.
proved July 2, 1909, the Thirteenth
Decimal Census of the United States
is to be taken, beginning on the fif-
teenth day Of April, nineteen hundred
and ten: and
Whereas correct enumeration of
the population every ten years is re-
quired by the Constitution of the
United States for the purpose of de-
termining the representation of the
several States in the House of Rep
resentatives; and
Whereas it is Of the utmost import
ance to the interests of all the peo-
ple Of the United States that this CEN
sus should be a complete and accurate
report of the population and resour-
ces of the country:
Now, therefore, l, William Howard
Taft, President Of the United States
of America, do hereby declare and
make known that, under the act afore-
said, it is the duty of every person to
answer all question on the census
schedules applying to him and the
family to which he belongs, and to
the farm occupied by him or his FAM
lily, and that any adult refusing to
do so is subject to penalty.
The sole purpose of the census is
to secure genera, statistical informa-
| tion. regarding the population and re.
sources of the country, and replies
are required from individuals only in
order to permit the compilation Of
such general statistics. The census
has nothing to do with taxation, with
army or jury service, with the COM
pulsion of school attendance, with the
regulation of immigration, or with the
enforcement of any national, state, or
local law or ordinance, nor can any
person be harmed in any way by furn-
I ishing the information required.
There need be no fear that any dis
closure will be made regarding any
individual person or his affairs. For
the due protection of the rights and
interests of the persons furnishing in.
formation every employee of the Cen.
sus Bureau is prohibited, under heavy
penalty, from disclosing any informa-
tion which may thus come to his
knowledge.
I therefore earnestly urge upon all
persons to answer promptly, com!
pletely, and accurately all inquiries
addressed to them by the enumerators
or other employees of the Census
Bureau, and thereby to contribute
their share toward making this great
and necessary public undertaking a
success. /
In witness whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington
this fifteenth day of March, A. D.
one thousand nine hundred and ten,
and of the independence of the Unit
ed States of America the one hundred
and thirty-fourth.

THE AMERICAN SUNDAY SCHOOL
UNION IN MINNESOTA.
Minneapolis, 517 Kasota Bldg.
March 18th. 1910.

March l5th 1911.
Those who have watched the
growth and usefulness of the Ameri-
can S. S. Union will be pleased to
learn that success crowned the efforts
of the consecrated Missionaries who
represented this great Society in the
neglected sections of our state last
year. We began the year with 16
men, one retired after spending only
a few months in the service. The fol-
lowing report represents the work
actually accomplished by IS men on
the frontier and isolated sections Of
the more thickly settled rural dis
tricts. ~.
Our ambition, as a Society, is to go
to the otherwise unreached" for
whom Christ died. The work IS pri-
marily for the children, organizing
Sunday Schools among them, giving
them Gospel privileges and good read
ing matter. 149 were opened, 1853
pupils were enrolled, 531 publicly
confessed Christ. 1408 sermons and
addresses were delivered, nearly 1000
Bibles and Testaments were distribus-
ed, over 1900 scholars came In touch
with the Missionaries in their work,
s,O52 homes were visited, where sell
dom if ever a regular pastor is seen,
oA noints have heen turned over to the
denominational churches, and are now
4 being fostered by them.
Yours for the children,
John O. Ferris,
State Representative.

There was only a small attendance
at the Grange meeting this afternoon.
The meeting was adjourned until
more could be present. Oranges are
being established in districts through
out the valley and are meeting with
a great deal of appreciation. MI
Smith, the state organizer, feels
highly gratified at the success he has
had and states that Grange Will be
established in the city eventually
although it is always easier to organ
ize the Oranges in the country where
the residents have less to take up
their time.

Better Training of the Girls

Now let US not be ashamed of it,
either.
want to ask you IL you think she
is educated to fill this place satisfac-
torily; that she will be any less eff
ficient il 1t should be her lot to be
placed in any other sphere of life?
And we would not be human to wish
that her vocation in life should be
anything but womanly-that is, call
ing into action the graces and gentle
services that go to make a perfect
home.
But, you say, they are already TAX
ing this up in the High School; isn't
that time enough?
I answer that 1t is better in the
High School course than not at all,
but why wait till then. Let me give
you a few statistics; they need not
tire you for 1t is the record of our
own schools and what has happened
in the immediate past is liable to
happen in the near future.
Statistics show us that large pro-
portion of our girls leave the schools
at about IA or the age limit for COM
pulsory education, and II our schools
are to benefit the greatest number it
must be given while they are in the
school, for once out they do not re-
enter.
Our grade schools are designed to
serve as college preparatory schools,
or are they working in harmony with
the motto, ''The greatest good to the
greatest NUMBER"
How many of these girls who have
gone directly from the grades into
homes find of any value whatever the
hours spent in school in trying to give
the date of the discovery of America
or the generals of the Civil war, ETC.?
In other words, the history period of
the grades could have been dispensed
with entirely and the home-maker
none the worse off. Where's the use
for her algebra or higher mathemat-
les? Wouldn't it have been better
for her to know how to select the
most nourishing food that can be pur-
chased for a dollar? In short how
to make the salary of her husband
reach farthest in making their home
happy and comfortable?
Now, there is one other phase of
this subject that is worth taking into
consideration.
The average eighth grade girl Is
at the age of irresponsibility and vac
illation, and in many cases just quits
school because she doesn't see any
need of going longer-it is such
drudgery. Given Domestic Science
and she Is at once interested in tan
gible things and this interest carries
her safely over the aimless, reckless
age and she's we'll along in the High
School before she is aware, and now
has ambition and purpose to carry
her to greater achievements.
This very factor in itself is suffic-
lent plea for Domestic Science and
Manual Training in the grades, in
that it lengthens the school years for
such a great number of boys and girls
who would otherwise be very poorly
equipped for the battle of life. In
other words, it would lessen the num-
Der of ignorant, inefficient men and
women, the obvious result of which
Is poverty, and must to greater or
lesser degree be carried by the state.

had gone off before she wakened. She
fingered over breakfast; but he did
not appear, and she could not endure
