dress was modern educational meth
ods and tendencies. He pointed out

sidered at this time are the arrange

attendance and the quality Of the
teaching staff.
He laid especial emphasis on the
last requirement urging the necessity
to teachers.
The difference between good

agement.' He made three suggestions
to school directors and school boards.

or the school property; (2) an annual
budget should be prepared by the

distribution of the school funds; CD
a survey of the efficiency of the school
system should be made every year.
These ideas were explained in de-
tail in the course of Mr.. Bjornsons
address.
Music was furnished for the meet
ing this morning by the pupils Of the
Grand Forks public schools
Refreshments were served at noon
by the domestic science department
Of the local high school.

state.
Mr.. Brown, with L. W. Hill, presi-
dent Of the Great Northern railway,
and Otis Everett Of the Northwestern
Trust company covered more than 250
miles in automob biles.
THE farmers Of North Dakota are
alive to the prospects of 1915" said
Mr.. Brown. The ideal weather has
allowed more fall plowing than be-
fore. On account Of this the farmers
Will prepare much more land in the
spring.
Next year the products of the
northwest will be in greater demand
than ever and higher prices will pre-
vail. The farmers are preparing for
1t. The largest number of acres ever
under cultivation in North Dakota will
be seeded next year."

When he boarded the train at Han
nah he asked the conductor to stop
at Miss Robsons school, which was
located about a mile down the track.
The conductor refused. Taylor then
went into the toilet room and jumped
out the window. He was immedi-
ately missed, and the authorities start
ed back after him. They found him
a short distance down the track. none
the worse for his plunge from the
moving train.

A charge Of attempting to commit
him and he has been held in the Cava-

Attorney Crimson then started an
investigation. which developed the
fact that his first wife was still living

from relatives.
Later Mr.. Robson came to Grand
Forks and insisted on a charge of big
amy being lodged against him. The
Cavalier county charge was dismissed,
and Taylor will be brought to the city
this evening to answer to the more
serious charge. Deputy Sheriff Ole
Brenna went to Langdon this morning
to get him.

In Aiding Belgians it is
Feared Local Poor Will
Be Forgotten.

Whether or not the liberal response
Of the people of Grand Forks to the
appeals for aid for the war stricken
Belgians will tend to reduce their con-
tributions for local relief work will
be demonstrated during the next week
or two. according to Mrs. E. NJ. Pierce,
in charge of the work of the Associat-
ed Charities.
From other cities have come COM
plants that in their generosity toward
the Europeans the people have for
gotten their home charitable institu-
tions.
Practically the only time at which
We look for voluntary donations is the
Christmas season." said Mrs. Pierce
today. THE next two weeks, there
fore. will show whether our local poor
are to suffer as result Of the Euro
pean war relief"
Mrs. Pierce also states that the con-
dition of some of the local poor this
winter threatens to be desperate.

pears probable that many families
