NO TIME LIKE PRESENT,

It is going to require some time for <his country to get used to the read- justmcnt of business conditions which haNe bean caused by ,tha war. It is going Co take some little time to de- veiop the South American trade to it's full capacity. and whilc such growth may be gradual yet there is no time like the present for its proper devel- opnlent.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
WHAT AN AGRICULTURAL COL
 LEGE DOES.

With many sharp growing pains, with vast vociferation pro and con, with pointings with pride on the one side and with viewings with alarm on the order the people are gradu- ally arriving at a point of self-respect where they will a unload themselves of deceptive benevolent feudalism and will undertake cheerfully to do things for themselves
 The above sentence is not from Henry James; and it's just as true as it's long.
 The particular thing that induced this phflosophizing is the news from Fargo, N. D. There the North Da- kota agricultural college has estab- lished a Little Country Theater. drama and original entertainment for the people roundabout. The play house will seat about 200. There are no boxes or balconies-no catering to class. There is a capacious stage The decorations of the auditorium are tasteful and pleasing. It is not bedi- zened like a valentine, after the man. ner of the average city opera house
 Plays will be given, preferably one act plays from the best sources Ii found suitable they will be recom- mended to local communities. In fine. this college Is grasping the fact that the theater is a real edu-
  should be taken in hand by the state the agent of the collective will, ant made helpful to all.
 The theater ought to be a part O. the general educational system of thu state.
 All the more so because it is essen tially amusement. For amusement i! the most potent form fof education. Every city and town ought to hav' its municipal theater, where its owl youth do the playing, and where tn, strong character forming influence O dramatics is utilized in a common sense way.
 The best way for the people to clear l themselves of the old Puritan preju l dice against the stage, and to mak l the drama the far reaching power | ought to be in broadening the min' and invigorating the conscience is fo I them to have their own playhouse 1 and do their own acting. | This will not eliminate the profes
 sional actor, but will immensely dig l nifty his work.

GEORGE JUNIOR REPUBLIC.

5 It is with sincere regret that the failure of great institutions, which have for their purpose the uplift of mankind, is witnessed. That such an effort as the George Junior Republic In New York should be allowed to cease and no organization be ready to undertake the continuance of such. a highly comfnendabIe reformatory work Is not only, surprising. but deplorahle when there fs so great need for just tilts very service to children who have displayed wrong inclinations.
 The effort fails because of it's foun- dation. So long as it's founder. the one man power which conducted il stood right in the eyes of the world 1t fiourished. but dependent upon that one man power it wilted when he fail ed. sBut," as the New York Sun says the scheme of developing responsi- hilfty and directing youthful energy Into the right channels through a sys- tenn like that followed in the republic does not lose it's attractiveness sim. ply because one man went wrong. The miserable failure of the prison system as applied to youthful de1inquents is not made less abhorrent by the shut ting up of this colony for reasons that cannot be charged against it's in- mates"
 That there is demand for just suct work of correction is unauestioned an6 the great amount of good which car be attained through the setting rishi of young minds by the proper methods and influence ought never to be neg lected. The possibilities which lie ii the way of work among children wht would be reached by such an institu, tion is sufficient to warrant it's re organization on a proper basis.
