DAY IN THE YEAR.

Not content with the official recocni.
ton Of the second Sunday in May as
"Mothers' Day." in Massachusetts,
some sentimentalists want to accord Of
fetal recognition to the virtues of Dad
by adopting the third Sunday in June
as a special day in the year when the
whole family can devote themselves to
the contemplation Of the solid virtues
of the old man. This movements in.
Spires the Haverhill Gazette to rise up
in protest and it gives voice to the gen.
eral sentiment of the fathers when it
says:
"Mothers' Day is observed on the
second Sunday of each May, and it is
now proposed to dedicate the third Sun.
day in June to father. Somehow,
though, the father movement is not
meeting with encouraging response.
Probably this is because father himself
is opposed. Mother knows she is de.
serving of honor and is willing that i.
should be paid. Father is ready in
most eases to lead the procession in
honor of mother. but when it comes to
making fuss over himself he balks.
it ism t in his nature. His business is
to provide for mother and the brood.
and he is Just as willing to provide
glory as grub. Submitting to praise
would be to him like confession of
dependence and he ism t ready for that
yet. Serious and sentimental bards do
not build rhymes around father; they
leave that to the jackpot jinglers. Nei-
ther are there softening songs about
him; he gets into the ballads occasional
lv along with the sawbuck and the
stovepipe. and he enjoys the company
very much. He does not want to be
sobbel over. He wants to be let alone.
silvered hair bear their own testimony
of his worth, but will certainly not sup
port movement to set apart an an
nual day in his special honor. He
thinks that such recognition as is due
him ought to be spread equally over the
365 days in the year.

THE RUGBY VIEW.

Just to show the Rugby view of the
failure of the local chorus to attend the
celebration last Tuesday, a matter that
was opened by the Consolidated
Press" of this city, we ublish the fol
lowing from the Rugby Optimist:
"We have been asked to explain
IN measure the reason why the Nor
wegian chorus Of Devils Lake refused
to come after they had been engaged
to appear here Wednesday, and no,
making known their intentions to the
local committee until it was too late t.
secure any other chorus.
"1t appears that Silver ssrumeart
is one of the @main guys in this er
ratio organization, and when sive7

WHAT DEVILS LAKE HAS.

"HE World has been reviewing for
the past week the various institu-
lions that Devils Lake has. hut this
month it has somethin. that counts for
far more. 1t has AN OPPORTUNITY.
On June 23rd the editors from all parts
of the state will congreyate in this
city at which is to he one OF the largest
meetings of the newspaper fraternity
ever held in North Dakota. The pen
pushers OF the state are ohselrant.
They have heard lot about Devils
Lake and not all of it has been COM
plimcntary. They are coming with
their eyes open and from the impress
sions gained during the two days OF
their stay here will be gagged their
comments on this city for years to
come. Ii the citizens by their actions
can show them that we have a live, up
to-late and progressive town, the edi-
tors will boost. If any exhibition OF
fractional feeling crops out, however.
they will quietly take few digs at
our city that will injure it more than
they realize.
The newspaper men are going to get
together for those few days and if they
can there should not be citizen in the
town who couldn t slap his neighbor or
the back for that length Of time and
give the visitors the impression that
we have great big happy family here.
The Commercial club is to meet to-
morrow night to discuss ways and
means OF providing entertainment for
the visitors and large attendance is
desired The ladies of the city are to
be asked TO 4 other share and every
body is requested to wear holiday
smile and air of " gladtoSeeyouness =
that will make the scrbes Of North
Dakota glad they came.

have done in the past, the encourage
ment given our post and the aid ex-
tended to our needy comrades and
their families by the Woman g Relief
Corps: Wherever you find real live,
post you are sure to find Woman 81
Relief Corps behind it. The help they
have extended to the G. A. r., not only
in this department, but all over our
broad land, is almost beyond belief.
In money alone they have turned over
to National and State Departments,
and individual posts since they ] were.

of Dollars, and yet this is but one item
of their constant good work they are,

SOLDIERS HOME.
As member of the board of the
Soldiers Home situated at Lisbon, it
gives me great pleasure to report. I
found the conditions in that institu-
ton very satisfactory. The Command
ant, Comrade Carrall and wife, possess
act and good judgment-peace and
harmony prevail. The Comrades seem
to appreciate the home and are con-
tented. I have attended all the meet
ings of the board SINCE my election as:
Commander. and while there I have
inspected all the departments of the
home, and found them in the best
condition possible. I also visited the
cemetary at Lisbon, where the home has
a special plot, for the deceased Com
rades from the Home. The cemetary
is beautiful as a whole, and we'll kept.
but I found no place there, more bea-
utiful, nor better cared for, than the
spot where the Comrades from the
Home are laid at rest. The Board at
their last meeting in May found the
hospital part of the Home getting
crowded owing to age and infirmaties
of the Comrades so they desired to
make more room, which they are now
doing, by raising the roof and putting
in more windows. When completed
this will add eight more rooms to the
hospital building.

The World had hoped to be able to
refrain from calling attention to re.
cent relapses of the fractional feeling
but the constant Misrepresentation of
our contemporaries makes it impossible
The first of the week after an invita-
ton had been extended to the Norden
Chorus of this city TO sing at Rugby on
Tuesday and accepted, Silver Serumgard
saw the announcement that gave as one
Of the principal speakers Attorney F.
7. Cuthbert Of this city. With much
the same attitude as thu young boy who
in now historic terms exclai,n that
he would be pitcher or there weren t
no ball gamen Mr.. Serumgarl packed
up his voice and refused to act. Two
other members of the club joined silns
with him and despite the earnest. en-;
treaties of the remainder Of the organ
ization struck. 4 meeting was held
at which it was decided that rather
than disrupt the organization, the inyi-
tation had better be rejected. The Rug
by committee arranged for other music
by unanimous vote and the program
was a tremendous success. The World
made no comment on the action Of Mr..
Serumgard, deeming it best to keep
these fractional quarrels hushed up, but
the Inter-Ocean under it's new manage
ment ran scare head story in which
it claims that the bomb was "Thrown
into Cuthbert.'' As Mr.. Cuthbert spoke
at Rugby and the Norden chorus did
not sing, it would rather look as if the
bomb had rather heavy back fire
arrangement. The narrowness of Mr..
Serumgard is hardly excusable and is
an exhibition of the spirit that tears
down town rather than builds it up.

There are th1se classes Of professional
men that for some reason or other never
expect salary at all adequate to what
they could earn if they put their spec
ial abilities to other uses. These are
clergymen. schoolteaclers and newspa-
per men. Y salary of $4,000 year in
any Of these professions is rare. indeed
Only very few who have climbed to
the top of their professor ever get that
much Just now President Taft is look
ing for an eminent educational expert
to be United States Commissioner of
Education at salary Of $4,000 a year.
He finds it hard to get the right man.
and the Journal of Education makes
this comment on the facts:
''President Taft or his secretary of
the interior has a great responsibility
in choosing commissioner C eluca-
ton. The salary Will ten,pt few men
who should be selected It is to all in
tents and purposes financial sacri-
flee. 1t is a Scandalous fact that al
most every man spoken Of is getting
$4,000 salary now. Every important
city pays that salary Nearly every
state with a big man pays as much or
affords an opportunity to make the in
come equal to S. 0nh, and the cost of
living IN Washington is much greater
than in any state capital. Think of tie
United States paying no more than is
paid to the secretary Of the national
playground association and to practi
cally every man is an important place
in any Of the foundations! Il is scan
dalous!
"Most unfortunate, also, President
Taft wants to find as large a mar for
$4,000 as Governor Woodrow Wilson
can pay $4,000 for. Here are a state
and a nation seeking to find a man
from the same group of 10 men. If a
man says he will accept $4,000 in Wash
ington it may rule him out Of the SO.
oG0 in Trenton.
How long, oh We men in congress.
how long will this scandalcus condition
continue. II is reported that President
Taft intends to find a man who can
command money from congress.
Who are the men? All told, leaving
out those who cannot look at the posi-
lton because of the salary, there are
two great men who are not school mon,
either Of whom can presumably nave
the position. There are two candidates
with very active friends who are not
likely to have it. There are two state
sueprintendents who are easily equal to
1t and who might accept il. Two MN
from departments of education in mi
versities are very generally regarded
as likely winners because here are to
be found men who are receiving halt

tendent is seriously considered, because
