CONGRESSMAN NORTON'S BILL

The people of this part of the state
should not forget that the last session
of the legislature passed a bill locating
the normal school for western North
Dakota at Dickinson. The next leeis-
lature will have to again pass the
measure before it can be finally sub
mltted to a vote of the people. How
ever, inasmuch as Dickinson is the
logical. center of the southwestern Sec
tion of North Dakota, a territory COM
prising one fourth of the area of the
state, there should be no question
about the location of our next normal
school.
The two old normal schools, Valley
City and Mayville. already have large
land grants, and it remains for Con-
eress to give Minot and the school for
Dickinson an equal appropriation.
Congressman P. D. Norton has just
introduced a bill providing for the
schools in the western part of the
state, and it stands our people in hand
to write to the members in Congress
from this state asking them to cooper
ate with the member from the Third
district. Mr.. Norton stands ready to
do his part. Let him know that yon
appreciate his efforts and help him in
any way possible to get favorable &C.
ton on his bill.

Encouraging Prospect
For Run1ely Company

Employees of the Gaar-Scott plant of
the M. Rumely company will be inter
ested in knowing that the company is
on rock bottom foundation.
Under the administration of Clar-
ence S. Funk, who came to the M.
RumeIy company from the Interna-
tional Harvester company, the over
production which the former Rumely
management carried on has been
stopped. The company had been ov-
erstocked with raw materials, but this
condition has now been remedied.
AS a result the company has at
present net current assets, after de-
Quoting all current liabilities and re-
serve against notes receivable, of
$19,000,00O, according to President
Funk, compared with s12 100000 on
December 81, a gain of $7,000000 or
so per cent.
This balance of net quick assets is
equal to par for the $10,000,0O0 two
year notes and 500 per share for the
preferred stock, now selling in the
market at about $54 per share, COM
pared with low for the year of
$36. This leaves plants and property

Business Sound.
Careful investigation Of the Rumely
company has convinced the manage
ment that 95 per cent of its business
is inherently sound and fundamental
ly profita BILE. The other 5 per cent
can be sloughed off as time gives OPP
portunity. 1t is not generally appre-
ciated that 65 per cent. of the com
pany's sales are of thrashing machin-
cry and 35 per cent of tractor machin-
cry. The other 10 per cent Is repair
parts and miscellaneous lines. The
repair business is profitable and some
of the miscellaneous lines.
Collections of the Rumely company
have improved considerably during
the last three or four weeks. 1t Is
probable that the management will be
able to get along without calling upon
the bankers and banks for all of the
s8,000,000 cash, which they pledged in
two different lots in order to permit
it to finance it's 1918 business"

NO BENEFIT DERIVED

No sex hygiene lectures in Wayne

This is the edict OF County Superin-

unpopularity of such educational work
in other states and cities. especially
in Chicago. where Ella Flagg Young,
superintendent of the schools. ten
dered her resignation AFTER public
meetings of protest had been held
against the innovation.
As result OF these lectures" said
Mr.. Williams. Immature minds are
opened to a field of thought that
should not be invaded until later. 4
believe any information given out In
sex lectures. which might be beneficial
for a child to know. should come from
the parents rather than from strang-

Says Talks Harmful.
MIR. Williams considers sex hygiene
talks impractical. and believes chill
dren are harmed and not benefited by
listening to them.
After the Chicago school board
saw that these lectures were unpopu-
lar" said Mr.. Williams. the plan was
not carried out. and Mrs. Young re-
considered her resignation"
Superintendent Williams will not
permit a lecturer to speak on this
subject before the township and dis
trict schools.
A Duty Of Parents.
According to the view of Mr.. VIII
Hams parents of children attending
schools here should demonstrate
against talks on this subject in the To-
cal schools. Most parents. he believes.

What a child of fourteen years
ought to know might harm a child a
