MAX DELEGATES
SCHOOL BUILDING
Gov. Hanna and Secretary of
State Hale are Principal
Speakers at Exercises.

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 2s.-Max,
n OF the most enterprising and pro-
gressive OF the new towns in the slope
unit has just dedicated a 9
school. For the occasion Governor
L. :; b. Hanna and Secretary Of state
Inomas Hall were invited to address
Inc people. They were met by an
audience Of over a thousand and re-
port a very interesting time.
Max is a town of only about 400 in.
habitants but has a well populated
surrounding community upon which
to draw. The new school house is a
model OF its kind, having every mod-
ern convenience. The building is a
two story structure, faced with
pressed brick. Governor L. b. Hanna
IN his speech emphasized the value Of
the educational system Of the state
IN the preparation Of the younger ele-
ment for true citizenship. He point
ed u that citizenship Of the best kind
rs q result OF enlightenment and un-
derstandtng of the state government
and an understanding Of economic
principles taught in a simple way will
do more, n governor said, to make
q good citizen, than the teaching of
abstract. things which have no direct
influence upon the student.
Secretary of State Thomas He'll stat
ed that the newer idea in education
in this state calls for a community
school. a school that will have its in
hnence not only upon the younger ele.
ment but upon the older element as
we'll. Drawing a comparison between
a d factory q n dthe present day
school. Mr.. Hal pointed out that the
school Is q losing proposition as far as
en1ciency Is concerned inasmuch as It
stands d a great part Of the year.
Inc factory, he said, is tuned up to q
high point Of efficiency, no waste of
any kind being allowed. The factory
represents investment Of the individ-
ual and only by making it an efficient
mechanism does it repay the. owner
Ia profit, The school is likewise an
investment. but unlike the factory is
an investment Of the community rath-
er than that Of the individual" When
tho school is not in use It represents
tied up capital and more than. that 1t
represents a certain deterioration. Mr..
Halls contention vas that the school
should. be used all the year around. It
should not only. be q. school but It
should be a social. or community CEN
ter. 1t should be a common. meeting
place not only for the school children
but for the parents as WELL. Cooper

modern education in North Dakota.
By cooperating. the patrons of the
school and the residents Of the COM
'munity ear make. OF the school house

. When 1t is realized. that there are
millions Of dollars invested in school
houses in this state. school. houses
which are used in a majority of cases
only about seven months q rel a
proposition OF making schools efficient
and profit returning is a very impor-
tant one. -
