HIGH SCHOOL
EXAMINATIONS
COMPLETE RETURNS FROM The
JUNE EXAMINATIONS ARE
NOW IN

Seven Thousand Two Hundred ant
Twenty.Four Certificates Have Beer
Issued.
The complete returns from the las
state high school final examination
which was given last June have beer
sent out from the Office of the exam
liner at the University and the size
of the task involved is suggestive OF
the growth and development of this
line Of educational effort in North Da
kota. Seven thousand two hundred
and twenty-four certificates in all were
sent out and the postage bill necessary
to carry them to their destination
amounted to 1852. 1t took force
of thirty readers working from June
26 to August 10 to grade all the pap
ers sent in and three clerks worked
continuously all through the month OF
August doing the routine work of en-.
tering up the results and issuing GER
tificates. A consideration of these
facts may explain to those to whom
the wheels seem to move too slowly
why it is that the certificates cannot
be issued sooner.
Not all Of the classified high schools
of the state send in papers to the ex-
aminer in all subjects. The first class
high schools are required to do so in
only one subject at each examination,
though they may write on all If they
choose. The first class school that
sent in the most papers at this exam
ination was jamestown with sol. In
the second class list, Hunter was first
with 166 and in the third class list
Milton stood on top with 155. Ten thou
sand three hundred and ninety-nine pa
pers in all were submitted; seven thou
sand two hundred and twenty-four wer
passed and three thousand one hund.
red and seventy-five were rejected
making the percentage of successful
candidates 69.4 per cent.
The changing nature of the modern
high school of today, compared with
the school of the older type is appar-
ent In the subject matter of the papers
submitted. First year English leads
as the most popular subject with
elementary algebra second and the
third on the list is second year Eng
lish. Latin Grammar still holds its
own fairly we'll 654 papers out of the
total number but all of the papers in
Caesar, Cicero and Vergil together,
total of 286, are just equal to the
number submitted in the subjects of
Domestic Science, Agronomy, and Ami
NAL Husbandry. Mechanical Drawing,
Pedagogy and the senior reviews of
the common branches all show that
they are increasing in strength and
popularity.
State High School Inspector Richard
Haywood, who went through all of the
papers submitted and examined them
for irregularities and as to general
completeness has expressed himself as
very wen pleased with his findings

IN auto ACCIDENT

ALBERT LEA, MIMI, Sept. H.
Mrs. c. Paulson, Wife of President
Paulson of the Freeman county state
bank is in the hospital here with both
arms broken, one of them badly mang-
led, and suffering from lacerated
face, following an auto accident in
which she was thrown into a barbed

the mishap were Mr.. Paulson, driv.
ing; Mr.. Devine, cashier of the bank,
and Miss. Freydenlund, stenographer.
all of whom were painfully, though not
seriously injured. Paulson lost con.
troll of the machine in attempting to
cross a dangerous bridge. The axle
broke when the car left the road, the
auto turning over into a fence. It is

In these particulars and along the
line of general neatness and good ap-
pearance, the papers we're of higher
quality than any submitted at any
previous examination and very few of
the schools asked for any concessions
on time limit. The general results of
the whole examination show a most
satisfactory growth in the high schools
of North Dakota.

be practiced, and it is hoped by con-
solidating the buying a considerable
saving can be effected through dis
counts and the like. Certain modifica-
tons of the present plan Of conduct
ing the river improvement work are
being considered, and while nothing
has been decided, further economies
ray be practiced there.

EDITORIAL
Theatres vs.. Churches.

1t is a notable fact that church
attendance is falling off, while
people flock to a good show at the
theatres or the halls. The church
people and the pastors feel the
effect keenly. There are two ma
jor causes, namely: a, we have so
many trivial things at the
churches, i. e., too many small en-
tertainments, where people are
charged too high a price for the
production; b, we do not have as
good decorum and discipline as
we should have, and we fail to let
our light shine; we stay too long
ut church and do nothing; our
religion" is too emotional and
the sermons are not intellectual
enough. We harp too loud on
"Old Time Religion. We fail to
teach the people from too many
of our pulpits, and our ministers
do not live such lives as are
worthy of emulation. The people
have poor opinion of the church.
This is the indictment that the
people, not The Forum, have
brought against the church. This
is not charged against the
churches of Springfield, but this
is what the people say of the col
ored churches in general. The
Forum is not prepared to deny
the charge in sum total, but we do
say that here in Springfield we
have three or four good preachers,
may be more, who are not guilty,
but at the same time we believe
that in all of our churches a
great reformation is needed, es-
peciany along the business lines.
A church must not be used for
market place, and above all, we
must teach the people sound in
tellectual gospel. We know that
there are too many Negroes who
do not call preaching "preach-
ing" They want the old style Of
holding the fingers in the ears,
and yelling and jumping and
shouting ION Sundays, but that
"stuff" called "whang doodle"
must be stopped and the people
who do it sent to the farm. Study
and approve yourself worthy
