"Japan's problem is to make the
Koreans realize that their interests
are those Of JAPAN said Professor
Starr. The Japanese administration
IS doing we'll, but the Korean feeling
is one OF, sullen dissatisfaction. The
Koreans have better government
and better facilities of every sort than
ever before, but the situation still is
most difficult.
"The Japanese and Koreans are
more closely related than the Koreans
and Chinese, yet geographically and
culturally the Koreans have been pro.
foundry affected by the Chinese.
Korea was center of illumination
1900 years ago. The Buddha in the
temple near Kyong Ju is part of this
beautiful flower of development where
now all is squalor and meanness."

This is by no means the first at
tempt made to explore the Dead sea
region. Lieut.. w. F. Lynch Of the
American navy, as early as the year
184S spent considerable time in re.
search and exploration of that region
at the expense Of the American gov
eminent and at great risk to his per-
son.
Despite the hardships, Lieutenant
Lynch was fairly successful in taking
measurements as we'll as soundings
Of different parts of the lake. Accord
ing to the Ieutenant's narrative, the
lake measures some 46 miles from
north to south and from 6 to IL miles
east and west. Its total surface area
was therefore computed to be ESQ
square miles. It's greatest depth was
1900 feet at it's northern end, and its
shallowest part being at its southern
extremity, varies from to Is feet

The lakes depression below the sea

Rural Free Delivery of Much Benefit
Much has been said regarding the extent to
which the rural free delivery of u. S. mail has
contributed to keeping boys and girls on the farm
and its influence has probably not been exaeeer-
ated For all that the average young farmer
prizes the boon of receiving his daily paper on
the same day on which it is printed it is probable
that rural free delivery has meant even more to
the young women than it has to the young men
The circulating rural libraries have been an
other contributor to content the farms and so
have the rural telephones which enable the
young people to keep in close touch with one an
other and enable them to arrange social festivities
on short notice,-something that was absolutely
impossible under the old conditions when every
farmhouse was more or less isolated from all the
other dwellings of the country side The advent
OF the modern musical instruments has been an
other tremendous help in rendering the country
young people self-suficient. The player piano has
done wonders but perhaps the greatest transfer

This excellent institution for young
women which is conducted by the
Lutheran church has been having
marked success for some time and last
year there was an attendance of be-
tween sixty and seventy, and there
were many applications for admittance,
but OF account of the lack of rooms
many were turned away. II Is expect
ed that there will be a large increase
in attendance the coming season as
additional room has been made. The
school is one of the best conducted in
the northwest and the standard Of
learning is very high. There will be
one OF two changes in the corps of
teachers, The seminary will not open
for the fall term until Oct. /, which
will be registration day, and those who
expect to attend should be present at
that time.

Aaker's business COLLEGE.

NNt
Aaker's Business college viii begin
past nine years the school has proved
itself an important factor in the edu-
cational field. Its growth has been
rapid and its total enrolment already
runs into the thousands, while hum
dreds of graduates have gone out into
important positions and are rapidly
forging to the front in the commercial
life Of the northwest,
1t has always been the aim Of the
proprietor to make the school In the
way Of thoroughness, efficiency,
breadth of training and high moral
worth eminently worthy of the conf
densce and patronage of an intelligent
and discriminating public. The stand
ing OF the school among business men
indicates that the aim OF the school
has not been in vain.
The management believes that an
education is desirable insofar as it as
sists the worker In earning his living,
or gives pleasure and happiness to
those who possess it. The school be-
lieves that a good handwriting" is of
more value than an imperfect knowl-
edge of Latin, that the art and sci
ence of bookkeeping are more useful
than the problems in Euclid: that abiI-
ity to spell correctly and to pu~nctuate
properly are greater accomplishments
than the solving of abstruse problems
in the calculus; that the laws govern
ing negotiable paper and contracts are
more important than the laws govern
ing the solar system. Many others
have the same view of an education
and this is why the business colleges
are the most popular institutions in
America today.
The business college Of today also
proves to be the college of the people,
and 1t is within the reach of all, and
no boy or girl, young mar or woman
can afford to neglect it's it's priceless
advantages. The rising generation
needs a good business training with
which to meet the active duties of life
and the business men stand in great
need of business trained office help.

in the northwest. 1t is in the heart of Fargo's pref

The college students have actively aided in cam

namental landscape which adds much to the artistic
effect Of the grounds have been secured.
There are three substantial and attractive college
buildings built of brick and stone. One of them, the
Carnegie library, is but two years old. Football and
baseball practice field and diamond and tennis courts
adjoin the college. The college has a well equipped
gym.
