WHY GIRLS QUIT SCHOOL
Less Than Half Go to Work Because
Parents Need the Money, U. S.
Experts Find.

Washington, d. C-"Why Girls
Leave School, is the title Of a bulle-
tin issued by the United States bu-
reau of education, based on an in
CURRY made by its experts into trade
and labor conditions among girls in
Worcester, Mass.
The claim that children are forced
TO leave school to work because their
parents need the money is repudi.
ated by the officials of the bureau.
They found that from one.half to
three-quarters of the girls at work
in the factories could have had
further schooling if they had desired
IT,
Various reasons were assigned by
the girls for their refusal to attend
school longer, according to the bu-
reau. Some said they did not like
school," others could not get along
with the teacher and we're not pro-
noted" while many simply wanted
to go to work.

ANOTHER LOCAL ENTERPRISE,

The Fargo Commercial club Is to be
congratulated on it's enterprise In Sc
curing the Pitcher Manufacturing Co,
as a Fargo concern. This
gives promise of developing into a
very important manufacturing con-
Germ. It will bring about thirty new
families to the city at once, with all
the benefits that this addition to Far
go's population will mean.
The new concern finds that it can
make it's shock leaders in Fargo as
cheap as they can be made in Mime
apolis. and as it's principal trade ter
ritory Is either in the immediate vicin-
ity Of Fargo. or west Of this city, it
saves the freight from Minneapolis to
this city by making it's goods here.
There are many implements used on
the farm whose logical center of man
ufacture is in Fargo. The Forum be-
lieves that the time will come when
manufacturers Of gas engines, for in
stance, will find that this is a logical,
point for "a factory and if it is once
proved ~conclusively by actual expert
ence that manufacturing in Fargo
means a saving in freight, other en-
terprises viii follow the lead of the
Pitcher company.
