dition to these brick buildings there
are four frame buildings, not as i'm
posing and attractive, but wholly in
dispensible-the model rural school
building, the barn, the general storage
building, and the ice house. The last
few years have seen great improve
ments, not only Of buildings, but Of
grounds and equipment. The grounds
with their fine lawns, concrete curb
ing and walks, and cinder drives;
their beautiful trees and s%hrubbery,
and their inviting athletic field, with
excellent ball diamond and tennis
courts, are exceedingly attractive. The
school is splendidly equipped through
out, especially in library and labora-
tories. The total value of the entire
plant, including the grounds, buildings
and equipment, is not far from $780,
900.
The school offers several general
courses for graduates of the eighth
grade and the high school, and nun-
Der of special courses for graduates of
the high school. 1t keeps abreast of
modern educational demands by. plac-
ing special emphasis upon agriculture,
domestic science and manual train
ing. 1t understands the importance
of the problem of improving country
life and rural and village education,
and is doing all that it can to help
lsolve 1t. ISL
Just at present the activity Of the
school is centered very largely about
the establishment of the model rural
school provided by the last Legislature
and intended as an illustration to the
state at large of what a consolidated
two-teacher rural school should and
may be.
The purpose Of the normal school
is to make It's model rural school ex-

The MayvilIe Normal School.
: The state normal school at Mayville
is one of the finest and best, if not
one Of the largest, educational institu-
tons in the whole northwest. 1t was
established by the constitutional con-
vention in 1889 and admitted students
for the first time on the first day of
December, 1890. During the twenty
three years of it's existence 1t has sent
out nearly 500 graduates.
The site comprises twenty-five acres
of the very best and on the north side
Of Mayville. There are now five brick
buildings, the main building. Palmer
hall (the women's dormitory), the
heating plant, the students hospital,
and a commodious cellar and fuel bin
for the accommodation of Palmer hall,
in the basement of which is located the

Situated on the banks of the mean

of Mayville-a city that Is unanimous

to be n OF the most beautiful cities

feature Of the city that makes 1t re-

fame as a residence city than the in
vestment in time and labor that has
produced such a wealth of ornamental
shade trees.
Mayville is located in the midst Of
Of the most fertile parts of the
Red river valley, famous for it's agri-
cultural resources. The United States
census bulletin on agriculture in North :
Dakota. compiled from the thirteenth
ensus reveals the fact that Trail
county Is the only county in the state
that has between 95 and 100 per cent
Of its land area in farms, the per cent
for the whole state being 63. And that
this farm land is well titled and we'll
improved is shown by the fact that
real estate transfers in the vicinity of
Mayyille are frequently negotiated at
a consideration of 500 to 800 an acre.
The population Of Mayville is about
1900 and consists largely of retired
farmers and of families who have TAX
en- up their residence here because Of
the educational advantages to be en-
joyed. AS is usually the case where a
citizenship of that character is found,
the civic spirit is of a very high order
and the moral standards demand hat
the town be kept clean and wholesome
and free from all degrading and de-
moralizing influences. Thus it's repu-
tation has been established and is be-
ing maintained as a community into
which it is perfectly safe for parents
to send their children who must leave
home to continue their education and
as a community which caters to the
demands of the highest and most re-
fined class of people. Even the great
American game of baseball languishes
for lack of SupDOr in this citV simnlv
because the management has so far in
sisted on scheduling the games on
Sunday. AS soon as this policy is
abandoned the same spirit that has
supported so many other good, whole
some movements in Mayville will make
the baseball season a success.

following denominations being repre-
scented by active organizations: Con-
gregational, Methodist, Episcopal, Syn
cd, Hauge's, and United Lutheran, and
the Lutheran Brethren. Each church
maintains a Sunday school and it is
a statement founded on careful inves-
tigation that there is 10 u boy or a
girl in the city who is not enrolled in
some one of the Sunday schools.
The moral and intellectual caliber
Of the people of this community was
indicated by the loyal support which
they gave to the first session of the
Mayville c~hautauqua which was held
recently. No more delightful spot could
be found for a chautauqua than Island
park. a beautiful, wooded park sur
rounded by a lagoon which is fed by an
artesian well. Here a ive-day series
of high grade. chautauqua entertain
ments drew large crowds n was a
pronounced success despite several
days of rainy weather. This institu-
ton will undoubtedly be continued
and will attract more and more atten-
ton to Mayville from all up and down
the Red river valley, and will draw
larger and larger crowds to beautiful
Island park" The Chautauqua associa-
ton is differed by Thos. A. Hillyer,
president; Selmer Koppang, vice presi-
dent; and DR.: w. N: Lee. secretary
treasurer.
Through the generosity of Messrs.
]. L. and E. B. Grandin owners of the
extensive Mayville" farm which lies
just north Of the city limits, the. city
became the possessor some years ago
of a very neat and attractive public
library building-an institution not
often found in small towns. This
building, in addition to a well-stocked
| stack room and ~commodious reading
! rooms, contains a gymnasium and

rooms suitable for use by the various
clubs Of the city, and it will become
increasingly useful as a social center.
Mayville has an excellent public
school system, including a first class
high school, with equipment for teach
ing manual training, domestic science,
and all work required in a modern
school. The record made during the
last five years under the superintend-
ency of F. Thordarson, in the matter
of regularity of attendance, increase

parks. In addition to Island park,
which attracts picnicing parties from
as far away as Halsted, Mimi, there
is a e and attractive park establish

club along the railroad right of way
through the central part of town. This

travellers passing through the city who
contrast it with the usually unattrac-

small places. Lying just south of the
city is one Of the most beautiful and
best cared for cemeteries to be found
in the state.
