hOORHEAD TO HAVE
new SCHOOL BUILDING?

Detroit Record: Moorhead is to
At the last election it was voted to
transfer money from certain city funds
each year for the purpose of building
a high school. But someone inserted
a joker in the charter amendment
providing that such special fund must
amount to two-thirds the sum to be
expended for a building, before n
of it could be so used. Friends of the
school say it will lake four years to
accumulate enough; others claim it
will take six to eight. In the meantime
work goes on in the old unsanitary,
inadequate building.

suggestions for personal conduct or
useful action in the national emer-

them below. They vary, no doubt, in

Endorsement of any particular sugges-

interest and desire to help which ami
will, we hope, encourage the spirit of
duty, nselfishness, restraint and con-

us all to cherish to the utmost.
There are some simple things that
all can do and others that all can
avoid:

that some combustion of the materials
in the auto may have caused the fire.

clined to go slow for the time being
and buy only on the bulges. We think
this reaction Is only natural and after
it has run its course, the market will
be in a healthier position.
Corn-Cash corn Is reported n cent
lower and futures about the same.
Beneficial rains have fallen over the
entire belt which will help the late
corn. We are friendly to the market
and hin on any further break, the
long side is preferable.
Oats-Have sympathized with other
grains. They were heavily over
bought and a reaction is natural and
will make a healthy market. Sea board
exporters too 200, 900 bushels of oats

will keep up OIL all Declines. We advise
