AS to complaints regarding ungrateful
and disobedient children, the fault lies, it
seems to me, neither with the average par
ents nor with the callous, superficial young
individual families, in the main, but rather
a result of the present money mad, sensa-
ton chasing general public spirit, with its
cynical and heartless lack of morality.

Isn't it about time that we stopped de-
manding of American labor that it lower
its standard of living to that of the foreign
laborer? If bean soup and rye bread is a
better diet than meat and white bread by
all means argue for bean soup and rye
bread, but recommend them as foods for
all classes and not simply for the working
man so that he can live more cheaply
Start the kform where people have got
farthest away from the simple food idea

INDIANS TRIckED; NO REDRESS.
Cannot Hold Title to Lands They En-
tered Near Kellogg.

Washington, D. C. Representa-
tive Anderson is interesting himself
in establishing the status of about 80
Chippewa Indians resident in the vi
cinity of Wabasha, Mimi, who were
recently induced by Minnesota at
torney to enter upon public lands near
Kellogg, which it is now claimed cam
not be delivered to them by the gov
eminent.
In March, 1909, congress passed a
law designed to permit Indians who
had not previously benefited through
the allotment of Indian Lands on res
ervations to secure, through settle
ment, other public lands outside Of
reservations. This law was not IA
vored by the interior department, and
was repealed in June of last year.
The month after it's repeal the attor-
ney in question induced two Indians
to make claim to about "a quarter sec.
lions near Kellogg, and collected from
them liberal fees for his part in the
supposed acquisition of the lands. 1t
is not believed that the Indians can
prove any claim whatever, and since
there appears to be no way of secur-
ing redress from the attorney who
took their fees it is feared they will
undergo considerable loss.

LUMBER YARDS ARE ALSO
THREATENED BY FLAMES.
Kaiser Box Factory Is Burned, Loss
100000, With Insurance
of $4,000.

saltwater, May 8. - A destructive
flre visited South Saltwater. The loss
is 100000 with $4,000 insurance.
The great piles of lumber covering
acres with a foundation of sawdust,
edgings and other combustibles made
1t difficult to extinguish the flames.
The department of this city as well
as of the village, with the aid of fire
lighting apparatus of mills and factor
les, together with hundreds of men.
were combined to check the flames.
The United States boat yards with 10
buildings were endangered and only
saved by streams of water poured
upon them, they being within so feet
of blazing lumber piles.
The A. A. Ewart sawmill was under
sheet of flames, but was saved by it's
automatic sprinkling system and
streams of water from the mill. The
David Tozer big saw mill plant and
lumber yard and the St. Croix Manu-
featuring Co. plant, adjoining imme-
diately on the south, and were saved
by favorable wind and plentiful use
OF water, the village of South Still
water being across the street from the
destroyed factory. The fact that there
was strong gale of wind directly to-
ward the east and the st. Croix
meant the saving of the village and
other valuable property. The factory

The factory was worth $4,000 with
an insurance of $4,000. There were

were IL Omaha and N. P. cars, some
loaded with lumber, partly burned.
Grand Rapids Has Bad Fire.
Duluth, May S.-Grand Rapids,
Mimi, suffered a $4,000 fire. The
Hughes block and contents were de-
stroyed. The building cost $35, 200 last
year and contained the Hughes de-
partment store, practically all of the
legal offices in the town, and the hall
which has been occupied by the Cath
Ollie church since the church proper
was destroyed by fire last winter.
The insurance was nominal. The orr.
gin of the fire is unknown. Reports

control, but switch engine ran over
the two lines of hose which were
strung across the railroad and severed
them, cutting off the water supply

.CRED|TTHENORMALS
GRADUATES OF STATE INSTITU-
TlONS TO GET CREDIT FOR
TWO YEARS AT UNIVERSITY.
KEEPS STUDENTS AT HOME
Movement is in Line With Action OF
Other States on Same PROPOSE

low Credits.

Winona.-"The announcement re-
garding the advanced credit herein
| after to be given to graduates of the
advanced course of normal schools by
the University of Minnesota is one Of
special interest to prospective stu
dents of the state normals," said
President Guy E. Maxwell of the
Winona normal. Some six years ago
| no credit whatever was accorded the
normal school graduates by the Uni
versity of Minnesota Through the
efforts of the presidents of the schools,
however, in conference with President
Northrop, the university made a con-
cession of one year of advanced credit
to holders Of the normal school d.
plomas."
Some three years ago, after the or
ganization of the college of education,
Dean James of that department rec
commended and secured the privilege
of forty-two units of advanced credit
for normal school graduates out of
| the 126 required for graduation from
the four-year course and the bache-
lors' degree in education. The nor.
NAL schools, however, felt that their
course of study, somewhat heavier
than that of the first two years of the
college course, should rank as fully
and fairly equivalent as the first two
| college years.
Privilege Extended.
This privilege has been extended
to the normal school graduates of 9TH
er states by their universities. Mime
sofa graduates have therefore gone to
the University of Wisconsin and else
where, receiving full recognition for
their two years work. 1t is with a
view of securing these graduates for
the Minnesota University that the fac
ulty of the college of education has
just voted to award high school grad
yates who finished the full course in
the normal schools and who are espe-
c:ally recommended by the presidents,
the total of sixty units of credit out of
the necessary 126.
Thus, student may enter the nor
NAL school, pursue a regular course
for two years, earn his life certificate
as teacher and enter the schools of
the state at a good salary, teach tenn
porarily and enter the university with
out any loss of time. This privilege
will be of great interest of prospective
students and ought to appeal to boys
and girls whose funds may not seem
sufficient to carry them through four
years of college work, but who with
two years under the small expense
connected with the normal school
course will later find the way to the
university for the remaining two
years.
This plan will also interest parents
who desire to have their children un-
der the care of smaller institution
during the earlier portion of their COL
lege course. The dormitories now
completed or projected for the Mime
sofa normal schools will afford special
assistance to students who seek to
earn their college diplomas under the
plan suggested"

ENGINE CUTS HOSE.
Grand Rapids Scene of $4,000 Fire
SWitchmen Cause Loss of Control.

SddoC LOSS VI SOuIOIs
Grand Rapids.-Because a Great
Northern switch engine ran over the
fire hose laid across the tracks here
after the starting of a fire in the
Henry Hughes block, the new brick
structure, with all of it's contents, was
entirely destroyed. The loss is esti-
mated at $4,000. The firm of Hughes
& Co., which occupied the lower floor
and transacted general merchandise
business, owned the building.
Among the losers were Attorneys
Spear & Stone, Frank F. Price, B. G.
Mccarthy and James Doran and Doc
tors Gendron and Costello, who occu-
pied offices in the upper floors. B. F..
Munson and Gilbert & Finnigan, lum-
Der dealers, also were burned out and
lost all of their records and books.
The fire, it is said, was under con-
troll when the switch engine cut off
the water supply, thereby giving the

A conscientious, Woodworking and
successful clergyman writes: 81 am
glad to bear testimony to the pleasure
and increased measure of efficiency
and health that have come to me from
adopting Grape-Nuts food as one OF
my articles of diet
For several years was much dis
tressed during the early part Of each
day by indigestion. My breakfast
seemed to turn sour and failed to d.
gest. After dinner the headache and
other symptoms following the break
fast would wear away, only to return,
however, next morning.
Having heard Of Grape-Nuts food,
finally concluded to give 1t a trial. I
made my breakfasts of Grape-Nuts
with cream, toast and Postum. The re-
suit was surprising in improved health
and total absence of the distress that
had, for SO long time, followed the
morning meal.
my digestion became ones more
the old feeling of energy returned.
Since that time I have always had
GrapeNuts food on my breakfast
table.
81 was delighted to find also, that
whereas before I began to use Grape
Nuts food was quite nervous and be-
came easily wearied in the work Of
preparing sermons and in study, a
marked improvement in this respect
resulted from the change in my diet.
Il am convinced that Grape-Nuts
food produced this result and helped
me to a sturdy condition Of mental
and physical strength.

who were formerly troubled as l was,
and who have been helped as I have
been, by the use of Grape-Ndts food,

scene of famous serio-comic duel be-
tween two celebrated doctors, Doctor
Mead and Doctor Woodward, both Of
whom were lecturers at the college.
While walking down Bishopsgate
street one morning they quarreled
over some medical question and ad-
journed to the square of the college
to fight it out with swords. Woodward
fell, wounded in several places, where
upon Mead magnanimously said, take
thy life" Anything but your physic,"
Kissed back the chagrined Woodward

Make Decisive Move.

Minneapolis.-The strike of Min
neapolis carpenters has settled
down to a waiting game, neither side
yielding from the stand taken at the
start, although both carpenters and
contractors asserted they were gain

The carpenters say that contracts
for two private residences formerly
held by two members of the Master
Builders association, have been
turned over to the union to complete,
and that other contracts are being
sought by carpenters.
AS an evidence that they are win
ming, the contractors assert that %
non-union carpenters were put to
work on the Syndicate building.
