county shall awake to the Importance

schools with teachers and appliances
for the proper instruction of the
youth.
The St. Cloud Journal-Press of FRI
day, which gave an exhaustive ac-
count of the meeting of the Northern
Minnesota Educational Association
in st. Cloud last week, has this to say
of we'll known citizen of Sank Cen
ire:
CDR. j. A. Dubois had the inter-
esting subject of potato and corn con-
tests and treated his :topic in an in
teresting and entertaining manner.
1T has been said, said DR.. Dubois,
sby North Carolina educator who is
introducing modern methods into his
schools, that the children can derive
far more good from the study OF the
roots of corn and cotton than from
time spent in studying the roots OF
Latin and Greek words. It must be
lof great benefit to child not only
to enter into a competition fgrowing
good corn and potatoes, but having to
write a treatise on the methods used
at its conclusion. That is practical
and that is what our schools must
come to- The speaker outlined the
purposes of the contests that have
been started in this county and spoke
briefly on the rules as they have been
laid down. His address held the
closest attention of the members in
attendance.

Everybody's lonesome.
Women, silk-clad, jeweled fine.
Yes, they, too, are lonesome.

They are just as lonesome.
Some must serve and some COM

All still seek with cropping hand,

Everybody's lonesome.
Though your gift Of friendship :

Everybody's lonesome.

great things that the church is awakened
to seek for and obtain the most compe-
tent laborerS for service in the mission
field of the immigrant. Not only are the
best leaders and teachers sought for, but
the most careful study and survey of the
communities where work is projected Is
made by the mission departments of the
churches. Surveys and Investigations
have been made of immigrant communi-
ties in many large cities. such as New
York and Brooklyn. Milwaukee, Oakland
San Francisco and Baltimore.
In the General Assembly of the Presby-
terrain church in 1910 the report of the
executive commission called upon the
home board to make accurate survey of
the great cities and strategic points in
our country. and so to throw itself into
cooperation with the local home mission
forces as securely to establish great cen
tiers of evangelizing and assimilative
agencies that will dominate the vast and
varied populations OF these great CEN
terS.
Othere denominations are developing
splendid measures and plans for evange-
listic work in these great centers. 1t is
work for all the churches.
