Squad Ia Good Spirit
SharpenS for Moorhedd

With four days left for practice the
Normal school eleven is getting into
shape for the game with the Moorhead
Normal school team here on next
Monday afternoon. The work Of the
team during the early part Of the
week was Of q light nature to prevent
repetition Of last Saturdays defeat,
caused largely by the condition OF
the men who were compelled to play
the two heaviest games of the season
within the short space OF five days.
No practice was called for on MOI.
day in order to permit the team to
recover from the bruises received in
their struggle with the Wahpeton In.
dams of the Science school, and to
allow the men ample opportunity to
better their scholastic records. For
the remainder Of the time the team
will be given strenuous practice on de-
fensive and offensive work, and in the
mastery of new formations with which
it is hoped the Normals will triumph
over their rivals from the neighboring
state.
Team Unfortunate Saturday.
Although defeated by csore of 80
to in Saturdays contest, the score
is much larger than the difference in
the teams really warrants. Injuries
to men in the jamestown game, and
in the first quarter Of the game against
Wahpeton, greatly weakened the de.
tense of the locals. because Coach
Rodewald had no material with which
to fill gaps.
The sprained ankle of Howard Bar.
chus is fast mending, however, while
the other members Of the team are
showing much Of their former activity.
The Moorhead Norma1s have the ad'
vantage Of more than five weeks OF
practice, and they have played games
greatly strengthening their defense.
Nevertheless, If the line up of the
locals meets with no further losses
there will be seen in Mondays strug
gle the same snappy eleven which
brought victory over the collegians
last week. t,..-.

The states of the northwest have
always been too far from the great

here as we might wish, We are thank
ful to say, however, that as state
spirit grows, so national spirit grows
also. The family that takes only the
county paper has very narrow out

President Cooks visit to the Normal

knowledge Of literature, including the
ancient classics and his sympathy for
teacher and student make him the in
tensely interesting speaker that he is.

Membership Work.
CAS- chairman OF the membership
committee for this administration,
hope to be able to point with pride
to the delegation at Chicago in 1914,
and to feel that our state too has
become inbued with the spirit of the
general federation. If your club has
membership of twenty-five, the price
of one street car ride down town
would pay the yearly dues, same be-
ing a minimum of $3.50 or for clubs
having a membership larger than
twenty-five, ten cents per capita.
In many places, when a new club
is organized, one of the first things
they do is to apply for membership
in both state and general declarations.
Just this week had two such appli-
cations from New Mexico. Our secre-
tary, Mrs. Lauder, is anxiously wait

in so shaping the plastic child-mind
that it will develop to be of the great
est possible use to siciety.
Inspired Teachers Needed
Among other things it was urged
that this presupposes an inspired
teacher. One who sees the largeness
of the subjects in the Curriculum, and
of the results of his or her work.
Arithmetic, for instance must mean
more than a tumble of figures. 1t
must be regarded as "the tool for
the organization Of the world so that
it can be better used.
Geography covers more than a
county; it is a vision of the work
ing forces of the world. And so his
tory must be taught, not as narration
of events, but as the record of the
organization of institutional life.
"The plastic mind is like piano,
out of which the trained person can
obtain the wonderful feelings of the
great master personalities. Like these
great personalities, the teacher must
be trained to awaken the possibilities
in the child"
1t was further contended that in
this lies the largeness of the teach
ing profession. 1t involves the ap'
preaching of things with the spirit
of inquiry and scientific investigation,
because the matter Of education is the
matter of world building.
The address ON Saturday morning
was a continuation of that of Friday
morning, in which DR.. Cook emphasiz
ed the fact that the successful teach
er must remain young. He may be-
come old in years, but he must not
become older than thirty in spirit and
above all he must not lose sympath!

Community Advances
Urged by Mr.. Henry
PROFESSOR IN AGRICULTURE
DEPARTMENT WRITES ON
CIVIC NEEDS.
lBy Prof. g. Henry

North Dakota will continue to be an
agricultural state for many years to
come. We must therefore look to our
farmers for the production of our
wealth. The town owes its very ex-
istence to the fact that it Is so located
as to become rural community cen
ter. On the other hand, the town
should be the very heart of the rural
community. sending its life, giving
influence into the remotest district.
Thus town and country are interde-
pendent. The town, therefore, should
be not only the mercantile center, but
should lead in the social advance
ment of the whole community.
The writer recently had the oppor-
tunity Of visiting several North Da-
.kota communities. Even to the sup
CRITICAL observer it was easily appar-
ent in which towns there was any at
tention given to the social needs of
the people. In those towns where the
people were interested in civic ad-
vancement, the men and women were
more alert, business was brisker; even
the buildings, both in town and on
the farms, showed that an interest
had been taken in their appearance.
The pulse of cooperation could be
felt beating strongly in every corner
OF the district. .a.assas
Other towns were devoting all their
energies along mercantile lines, to the
debtorment of the intellectual and So
cia1 community life. Here could be
plainly seen the effects of all work
without that diversion of community
life which is so essential to men and
women. The people who were past
their youth were stolid, unimaginative
and unprogressive. The merchants
complained Of lack of business. The
chief interests of the young men seem
ed to be fast horses, faster women,
and whisky.
IN purchasing home in : new
community the first questions the
prospective buyer usually asks are
about schools, churches, farmers
clubs, and the moral standards of the
people. All of these things influence
the land value as well as the quality
Of people.
Every citizen therefore, owes it to
himself, as well as to his neighbors,
to take some active part in the i'm
provement of his community. In the
words Of a rural economist Of note.
The ideal citizen is he who works
quietly, doing those things that lie
first at hand; one who keeps his own
place neat and prosperous and who
is ever ready to assist q public enter
prise without becoming oflcious.'

MILLIONS LOST IN EGGS

The poor handling of poultry and eggs costs Kansas dealers and pro ducers q million q year, according to an investigation just completed by officials If the government argricul- tural department Three expert poultry men were stationed in Kan SIS t. watch the egg and poultry shipping and see how the products were handled. The work was done in connection with the state board of health and the report of the in- Vestigation for the first six months Was completed today. It says
 In spite of the fact that prices are better than they were formerly. the producers are not receiving - much for their eggs us they should. considering the ultimate prices paid by the consumers of these eggs That is not the result of any com hination on the part of buyers to keep prices down, for competition is usually sharp enough to cause aS much to be paid tr the buyer can afford
 The real reason lies in the fact that the system of marketing and buying eggs in Kansas is faulty and causes preventable loss and deter ioration. That is true because mo incentive is offered for care and ex- peditious handling of the product. In other words. the careful farmer who markets good eggs as a rule gets no more for them than his careless neighbor who markets poor ones As a result of this loss prices paid to producers must be depressed to cover it and that accounts for the difference between the price paid for these eggs and the prices charged the consumers.
 At first glance it might be thought that this loss and deteriora- tion was slight and of minor impor- tance. Quite the contrary. however. is the case. From a careful study made of the situatio> 1t appears that the annual loss resulting from these sources in the egg trade of the coun- try totals about 15 percent of the value of the product, or 45 million dollars
