PRACTICAL WORK
AT Y. c. NORMAL

Valley CITY, N. d.. Nov. 1s.-The
Valley City normal is thoroughly in
sympathy with the modern vocational
education. II ID the aim Of the insti-
tuition to instruct their teachers in all
Of the lines Of vocational education
which the schools OF the state demand.
In their department OF elementary
agriculture they are seeking to inn
part the fundamentals in scientific
filling of the soil and animal hus-
bandry, In manual training they seek
to impart q knowledge OF mechanical
science as applied to woodwork.
foundry work, etc, in domestic science
the work Is entirely devoted to equip
ping teachers. In all these depart
ments much work is done which does
not directly benefit the teaching pro
fession as the student does not become
q teacher, but the same "a true OF all
the branches taught.
Among the popular departments Of
normal which are devoted to vocational
education, is that of commercial
studies. The enrolment in this de-
partment is large and work thorough
and efficient. Penmanship and book
keeping is taught by C. C. Curtiss,
one OF the greatest. If not the greatest,
living penmen. Mr. Curtiss was for
many years in Minneapolis at the head
OF the big Curtiss Business college, and
mas national reputation as a penman
and teacher of penmanship. Few OF
the present generation OF men In the
northwest who have not followed the.
copy furnished by G. G. Curtiss in his
copybooks IN their laborious efforts to
master the art Of writing. At pres
ent Mr.. Curtiss Is engaged in making
copy for 3 new writing chart which is
shortly TO be issued by an eastern
publishing house.
The keynote OF the work in this
department is thoroughness. II is sell
dom that such a spirit of endeavor
and receptiveness ia maintained as
prevails in the classes OF Mr.. Curtfss
and he seemingly keeps the student
keyed up to the highest point OF en-
deavor without effort. Such a spirit
and such a teacher cannot help but
bring results.
Mrs. Anna s. Greenwood Is at the
head Of the department of stenography
and bookkeeping. In this department
the regular course Is two years and
while the aim Is to teach the under
lying principals and for teaching. as
matter of fact, their work Is largely
one of preparing pupils for office work.
Not only il stenography and bookkeep-
ing taught but the student is grounded
in the fundamentals Of spelling. Eng
fish, grammar, commercial law. etc.
Mrs. Greenwood Is q specialist In
commercial law and has a textbook
on that subject ready for publication.
She believes that not only as a mat
ter of business education but as an
essential to broad education, COM
mercial law is indispensable.
Miss Anna X. Cook is also connected
with the department and teaches com
mercial correspondence. All of the
classes in this department are large
and confirms the Judgment of the man
agement that there 10 a universal de-
mand for commercial education.

WOULD FORCE
PAYMENT On
Land CONTRACT

Mayville, N. D., Nov. 1.-THE nor
NAL board Of control in session at
Mayville yesterday passed a resolu-
ton urging the land commissioner to
make good his threat and force pay
ments on all land contracts. The
board also took the matter UP with
the A. c. and the university boards in
session today and those board will also
appeal to the commissioner.
The state schools are badly handI-
capped by want OF funds. The Valley
City normal's income from the school
lands fund is more than $4,000 less
than the income from the same source
for the corresponding ten months OF
last year. Their income from the mill
tax is $4,000 less than last year for
the same period. This leaves the man
agement with deficit and they find it
extremely hard to pay salaries and
meet current expenses. In fact the
school Is far behind on general ex-
pensles.
Many purchasers of school lands
have paid neither principal nor inter
est Payments must be made or con-
tracts will be cancelled.

WANT A FACTORY.
WiIIiston Probes tho Sugar Beet IN
dustry for Farmers.


Williston, N. D., Nov. 16.--The WI
liston Commercial club has taken &C
tive steps looking to the establish
ment Of the sugar beet industry in this
district and is engaged in the collec-
ton of statistics bearing upon the
acreage that can be procured for rails
ing sugar beets in the event that a
factory can be secured. The farmers
under the Williston, Buford, Trenton
and the Yellowstone irrigation project
are being interviewed on the subject,
and the major portion fthem aer en-
thusiastic over the possibilities.
1t has been demonstrated that sugar
beets can be grown with a great deal
of success under the Irrigation pro-
jects. and the Williston Commercial
club anticipates getting into touch
with someone who can be interested
in the question from the manufacture
ing point Of view.
AS an argument in favor OF the es-
tablishment of such a plant 1t Is de-
clared that the producing power OF
the lands under the irrigation bitches
would be increased to about SIS to
800 an acre.

But When Thieves Began TO Investi.

Larimore N. D., Nov. 16.--Fifteen 81
oils and one 81 bill was the booty
obtained by clever artists operating at
Larimore when they victimized E.
O'Brien, confectioner. Undoubtedly
the men who grabbed the roll thought
they were getting the thing really
worth while, and Mr.. O'Brien has en-
joyed the affair immensely in view Of
the fact that he is able to see little
humor In the situation. He only re-
grets that he wasn't present when
the men began unpeeling the bills
one after the other-only TO discover
the fact that an apparently prosper
Gus looking roll contained nothing
heavier than the small denomina-
ton bills.
There was only one time during the
entire day that he could possibly have
been separated from his roll, says Mr..
O'Brien, and that time was when he
left a sack containing the cash lying
on the show case for a few moments.
