proved of same, and find that the
value of said security is at least the
sum of $36,000.00, exclusive of all
improvements thereon; and whereas,
this board has fully approved said
loan in every respect, and accepted
tie terms thereof; Therefore be it
Resolved by the County Board of Ste
yens County, Minnesota, that the
aforesaid proposition of the aforesaid
Spooner Investment Company. be
accepted, and that said loan be made
to said company upon the delivery
| by it of it's properly executed note
and mortgage, in conformity with the
aforesaid offer, and the approval
thereof by the county attorney of
said county, the payment of said
note to be further guaranteed by
one Lewis c. Spooner.
Said motion being seconded BY
Commissioner o. N. Dohlen, was put
to vote and unanimously carried,
and was so declared by the chair
man; all members voting thereon.
Commissioner P. F. Casey offered
the following resolution and moved
it's adoption:
Whereas, it is the desire of the,
people of the State of Minnesota in
the interest of further development
of the state to have located and con-
structed an East and West State
| highway thru substantially the CEN
trail portion of the state, commencing
at the City of st. Paul, and termin-
ating at the western boundary of
| the state.
And whereas, the location of said
East and West Highway commencing
at the City of ST. Paul and terminal
ing at the. City of Browns Valley,
and passing thru Minneapolis via
Lake Minnetonka, Maple Plain, Della
no, Montrose, Waverly, Howard Lake,
Smith Lake, Cokato, Dassel, Darwin
Litchfield, Grove City, Atwater, Kan
diyohi, Willmar, Pennock, Kerkhoven,
Murdoch, DeGraff, Benson, Clontarf,
Haynes, Hancock, Norris Alberta,
Chokio, Johnson, Graceville, Barry,
Beardsley and Browns Valley, would
be the most advantageous location
for said highway and said route
would serve the greatest. number.
That thruout the course of this pro-
posed location, the character of the
soil and timber and materials at
hand are most acceptable for the
construction of said Highway. That
the general topography of the coun-
try is very even; all of which would
make possible the construction of
said highway at minimum cost.
Therefore, Be it Resolved, by the
Board of County Commissioners of
the County of Stevens that we here
by pledge our aid and support to the
State Highway Commission of Mime
sofa IN the location and construc-
ton of said East and West State
I Highway.
BE it Further Resolved, that the
Board of County Commissioners re-
quest the State Highway Commission
of Minnesota to locate said East and
West State Highway as in this reso-
luton proposed
Said motion being seconded by
Commissioner VIM. Gausman was put
i to vote and unanimously car
ried and so declared by the chairman.
All members present voting thereon
On motion made and seconded the
board decided not to pass on any
Dill hereafter unless the same is
filed with the county auditor at
least five days before the board
meets.

THE GIRLS AND THE SCHOOLS,
Savannah News.)

The Third District Agricultural AMI
Mechanical college, at Americas, has
closed its doors to women. Members
of the graduating class will be permit
ed to complete the course and re-
ceive diplomas, but hereafter women
ale barred.
The reason for this action, it seems,
is based on the provision of the ac:
creating the district schools which
says the schools shall prepare stud
ents for entrance into the State Uni
versity. Since the university is not Il
co-educational institution, it has been
held by the trustees at Americas, that
the rule runs against women. Wheth-
err other reasons Influenced the trus-
tees in reaching their decision is al
open question. 1t may be that they
are of the opinion that young men
and young women do better school
work when they work segregated. and
that the agricultural schools were
designed especially for the benefit Of
boys.
But, whatever the cause of the in
7ovation in the Third district school,
it is pretty certain that more will be
heard of the matter The Legislature
will doubtless take it up. If, under
The existing regulations, girls may
not attend district schools, will it moi
De a duty on the part of the state
o provide schools of similar charac-
er which they may attend? There
! is much in the curriculum of the dis
trict school that is helpful to youn2
woman who contemplates life on the
farm and the making of it bigger anl
better. If the present law does no
authorize the admission of girls to the
district schools, then it is evident tina
there will have to be a revision G.
the. law. Discrimination as to educa
tional advantages between the sexes il
not to be thought of seriously. If on
door is closed to the women, anothe
must be opened.
