FUR SEALS PLENTIFUL.
Commerce and Labor Experts DO
Not Fear Extinction.

According to reports made to the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor to-day
the fur seal herd on the PribiIof Islands
of Alaska is in no danger of extinction,
now that there is an international agree
ment, to which the United States, Rus
STA, and Japan are parties, providing for
the abolition OF pelagic sealing.
w. I. Lembke, who is the agent of this
government on the islands, reports that
the herd numbers 1929, and that 1900
two-year-olds and upward were killed
last year.
Lembke insists that no harm can come
to the herd from land killing under gov
eminent supervision, and thus takes is
sue with the House Committee on Ex-
penditures in the Department of Com
merce and Labor, which is trying to Sc
cure the passage of a resolution by Con-
gress providing for an absolutely closed
season of fifteen years.

ing the Times building, which

lively assured. They had n big
supply OF dynamite, nitro-glycer-

Prairie Home School

Through the kindness and cour-
tesy Of my good friend, Mr.. Chas
Demoss. teacher OF Prairie Home
school, the writer and wife we're
invited to attend the closing ex-
ercises Of this school last Satur-
day. April 90. After a most boun-
tifui dinner prepared by the good
wives and mothers OF the district
the closing exercises took place,
They consisted of recitations, dia-
logues and songs. All taking part
did well showing the care taken
by them and the teacher az well,
to give the best possible display
OF their talents in this line as well
as in their studies. II was a note
worthy fact that every pupil pass
ed to a higher grade and one pu-
oil had out of a possible six one
hundreds, five one hundreds.
This showing speaks well for
the teacher who has given the
pupils such care during the time
he has been teacher at this place.
No better evidence of his fitness
for the place could be given than
the fact that the directors have
given him the school for another
term.
The world today Is trying to
solve the problem of keeping our
young people on the farm and not
letting so many drift to the city
where the struggle for existence Is
so fierce and where so many go
down under the severe strain. In
my opinion two things are need
ed and must be obtained before
this can be accomplished, namely
Good roads and good rural schools
The whole day was one OF pleas
ure and profit and carried me
back In memory to my boyhood
days on the farm and the district
school in my native county OF
Howard.
/ feel that special mention should
be made OF little Miss Sylvia De-
moss, sister OF the teacher, who
rendered so beautifully several
songs. The little girl has d voice
OF are sweetness and tone and II
trained will some day become a
beautiful singer. Also the negro
songs by Don Byars were highly
pleasing to all present.
May we all live to see another
year 60 by and meet again under
such pleasant surroundings Is my
sincere wish. b. NJ. Spots.
