Education of Youth for Business.

| Analysis of the student lists of colleges
and universities of the United States to-
| day and comparison of them with the
| lists Of a generation ago, will reveal
striking gain in the number of men who
expect to enter business, using that term
broadly. The higher institution Of learn
ming no longer trains a majority OF its
youth for the professions" so called.
Such cultural influence as the college
may have on undergraduates now goes
to the coming banker, manufacturer,
merchant or transporter Of goods across
seas and continents oftener than former
~.
Since this Is the case as to plans Of un-
dergraduates il is not surprising that
further evolution has come namely, the
special or graduate school Of business or
commerce Such q school provides for
limited but especially keen and ambi.
tious group OF men who can thus get
supplementary education fitting them for
the higher administrative positions that
GO with business done on a national or
international scale or that inhere in gov.

sides as nations deliberately expand their
domestic aud foreign trade.
One of the earliest and best OF such
schools Dartmouth college has had for
some wears. and ii the list OF its alumni

trimming of the kind means as an asset

When Harvard university broke with

The Torpedoing of the Messudiyeh in the
Dardanelles.

So much has been said. and Justly Of
the skill and daring of the German sub
marine fotilla that neutrality requires
recognition of the merits of Lieutenant
Commander Holbrook's achievement, the
torpedoing of the Turkish battleshp
Messudiyeh in the Dardanelles. The fact
that no more archaic warship than the
Messudiyeh, built in 1874 and recon-
structed in 1902, can be imagined does
not detract from the credit due the young
British officer and his crew.
In the war in Europe there has been
nothing more audacious, perhaps fool
hardy would b. the apt word, than this
invasion Of the subwaters OF the Dsrda-
nelles by a submarine. The presumption
that the straits were thoroughly mined
with the assistance Of German electro
clans. who have no superiors, should have
made the feat look like the most des-

Dear Voters: We, the mem.
bers of the w. G. T. u, and wo-
men who love our homes, appeal
to you, our husbands, fathers,
brothers and sons, representing
both yourselves and us at the
election next Tuesday, to cast
the ballot fo:- the honor and pur.
ity of our homes and city. We
implore you to free us from this
evil and to remove US from this
temptation from our weak ones,
whom some of us love and wish
to see protected. We pray you
to act fully and conscientiously
your part on election day.
Last week eleven hundred sa-
looms were voted out in Illinois,

been materially enlarged this year
in Minnesota and Wisconsin. In
Michigan, two more counties
have been added to the 'dry" col.

Interment at Old Home
l.. VIM. F0ss Buried at Wilmot.
Home of Young Manhood.

The remains of l.. William
foss, an account of whose death
was given in the Standard last
week, were brought back to
Wilmot last week from New
Mexico and laid to rest in the
Norwegian Lutheran cemetery,
Revs. Hylland and Christianson
officiating. Old friends, to the
number of nearly 100, went
down from this city to pay their
last respects to the departed;
and at the time of the funeral the
business places here were closed.
Mr.. Foss was square in his deal
ings with men and was man of
truth and uprightness. Mrs.
t'oss and children have suffered
great grief and have the heart
felt sympathy of a large circle of
friends. They are still with Will
mot relatives.
The following biographical
sketch is taken from the Repub.
lican of that place:
L. VIM. Foss was born in Dodge
County, MINNESOTA thirty-fve years
ago last July, and was the eldest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Anton Foss. He moved
to Roberts County two years later with
his parents and has made his home here
continually since. After finishing
school he engaged in the mercantile
business at Summit. In 1901 he as.
sumed charge of his fathers real estate
business in Wilmot, which he conducted
successfully. In November 1901 he
was married to Miss Angie Tenney OF
Spring Valley, Minnesota, and to the
union two children were born. He en-.
gagged in the abstract business early in
1902 at Sisseton, and in the fall of that
year was elected Clerk of Courts of this
county, to which office he was elected
The Sisseton weekly standard. (Sisseton, Roberts County, S.D.) 1892-1929, 1914-04-17

for three successive terms and conduc-
ted it i'll most efficient manner. AT
ter retiring from the Office of Clerk of
Courts he has given his whole attention
to the abstract business. and took an
active interest in all matters concern
ing the city and county He was a
progressive in ideas and action, and
will be greatly missed in all circles
where he moved. He was Keeper of
Records for the state organization of
the Redmen lodge for number of
years and would probably served in
that capacity Indefinitely but for his
failing health.
About five years ago he submitted
to minor operation, complications set
in and he became sufferer of an all
ment his doctors were unable to dag
nose, and spent considerable time in
seeking relief. 1t was only last fall
that he learned the truth about his all
ment and Immediately commenced
planning trip to a milder climate, but
the truth met him too late. The long
trip had telling effect on his weak
ened condition and he hovered between
life and death all winter. Alternately,
encouraging and then discouraging re-
ports were received by relatives here.
About ten days ago his brother, Levi,
was called to his bedside by a telegram
stating he was very low, but he rallied
and hopes were renewed that his con-
dltion was changing for the better, but
it was hoping against hope. He was
too enfeebled by years of suffering to
yield to the advanced treatment for his
trouble.
Besides the hundreds of friends
throughout this part of the state, Will
Foss leaves to morn his untimely death,
his wife and two children, age six and
nine; mother and father; three brothers
Levi, Herbert and Elmer; six sisters,
Mrs. Chas. Peterson of Milbank, Mrs.
! John Stamford of Spokane, Mrs. Niles
Davis of Shipshewana, Indiana, Mrs.
Julius Tostenson, and the Misses Cora
and Esther, of this place.
