TELLS HOW TO BUILD
|. CKLD'S CHARACTER
Or. Henry Neuman Addresses
Capital Pedagogues Now
Holding Annual Institute.
URGES THAT DISCIPLINE
BE NOT TOO SEVERE
Miss Helen Gordon Outlines Plan for
New Teachers Club-Colored
Instructors Meeting.

To develop the child's character by
having him do things in the right man
ner. rather than by merely telling him
the difference between right and
wrong; and through the development
of the social spirit by treating the
schooroom as community, were
points emphasize by Dr. Henry Neu-
mann in an address before the annual
teachers institute which is in progress
today at the First Congregational
Church. DIR. Neumann, who is the lead
er of the Brooklyn Society for Ethical
Culture, talked on THE School Life
as Character Builder"
The institute was formally opened
last evening and is to continue through
tomorrow evening, during which time
the schools are to be closed.
Should Have Concrete Idea.
There is all the difference in the
world between knowing what is right
and actually doing it," said DIR. Neu-
mann in his address today. "a child
cannot gain an idea of how much a
pound is merely by being told: he must
feel the muscular exertion required to
Ift 1t before ne can know. He cannot
know what a yard is by being told: he
must measure it. So it is in the ques-
tion of right and wrong. He cannot
know responsibility until responsibility
is placed on him. He cannot know the
meaning of a social spirit unless he has
an opportunity to use and develop it.
I'VE should not keep children at little
desks which are virtually islands. and
tell them to get all the marks they can.
AS a friend of mine says. when a
teacher does not develop this spirit and
tells the child to work hard and get
all the marks you can,' 1t sounds very
much the same as, BE a good little
boy; get all the marks you can and by
and by you'll own a sweatshop all your
own"

SKINNER, CHAMBERLAIN
& co.

The above is one of the big mer-
camille enterprises of Albert Lea deal
ing and supplying staples for the sub
slstence of man and beast. No more
worthy exponent in the merchandise
line can be found in this section of
the state than that of the Skinner,
Chamberlain Company store. This
company bears an excellent reputa-
ton for progressive management, for
its honorable and progressive bust
ness dealings and for the promptness
and courteous attention secured the
trade. This company is widely and
honorably known throughout this sec
ton and it's business has prospered
and increased until it has become one
OF the most permanent and beneficial
business establishments in the whole
state. This concern was incorporated
IN August 1902, and by the push and
energy of its management it has
forged to the front and now EMPLOYS
a force of IS people.
The goods handled by this company
IN all departments are recognized for
their high quality and excellence.
Some of the departments include a
general dry goods line, mems furnish
1ngs and clothing, ladies' ready to
wear clothing, groceries, shoes, art
needlework, furniture and house fur
nishings.
The motto of this firm is EVERY
thing to eat, wear and furnish the
home" The trade enjoyed by this
concern is not only local but people
from a radius of fifty miles do their
principal trade in this store.
A mail order department is main
tanned, which is of great benefit to the
surrounding country and its patrons
are numbered by the hundreds.
-Four auto trucks are utilized for
the delivery of goods.
The officers of the company are Bert
Skinner, president; w. C. Chamber
lain, vice president; H. C. Carlson,
secretary, and P. Styve, treasurer.
These men have all been promi-
nent IN social and business circles of
the, city for many years and bear the
highest reputation for progressiveness
among all classes of people.

ALBERT LEA MILK co.

'Dealers, wholesale and retail man
ufacturers Of ice cream and fancy
bricks"
This in a few words tells the story
of the activities of one of the leading
establishments at Albert Lea. Their
motto "Purity and Excellence" speaks
louder than words or anything that
we may add in this write-up about
this concern. They live up to their
motto in all particulars and it is the
general feeling in Albert Lea and sur-
rounding country that the products of
this company are not excelled by any
like concern in southern Minnesota.
This business was established in
1905 and incorporated in 1913. The
pro"rietors have been residents of Al
bert Lea and the state practically all
their lives and include such we'll
known names as, Frank P, Martin P.
and Alfred T. Martinson.
One of the features of this concern
is the delivery of bottled cream and
milk on regular routes in all parts of
the city,
The proprietors of this establish
ment are public spirited men and have
at all times been ready to render aid
to all things having to do with the
welfare and advancement of the COM
munity. The successful business in
stitution with which they are identi-
fed is fitting example of their pro-

Albert Lea is a thriving hustling
city Of 1900 inhabitants 100 miles

ries. There are also four colleges.
The city has lately built fine new
city hall and a central heating plant.
A number of fine lakes add to it's
scenic beauty and make it an ideal
residence city. Its fine high school,

Washington ID Ct, Nov. VI
The United States IN its latest
note to Great Britain, made pub
lie here oday, covering exhaust
[iyely British interference with
American trade SINCE the begin
ming Of the European war, de-
clares that the ap-called blockade
instituted BY the Allies against
enemy countries on March IL, is
ineffective, illegal, and .indefen-
,sible. y h
Notice is served that the Amer
lean Government cannot submit
to the curtailment Of its neutral
rights, \ and it cannot " with
complacence. suffer further SUBJ
ordination Of its rights and inter-
eSts.''
Ambassador Rage, to whom the
note was sent by special messen-
ger for delivery to the London
Foreign Office, was instructed
by Secretary Lansing .'to inn
press most earnestly" upon the
British Government that the
United States must insist that
the relations between it and his
Majesty's Government be gov
erned, not by policy of expedi-
ency, but by those established
rules Of international conduct to
which Great Britain in the past
has held the United States to ac-
count when the latter nation
was a belligerent engaged in the
struggle for national existence. :
Declaring the United States
"unhesitatingly assumes the
task of championing the integrity
of neutral rights, the note pro-
claims that the American Gov
eminent will devote it's energies
TO the task, exercising always an
impartial attitude.

Arthur Houser, the ex-convict
from the Colorado penitentiary,
who is charged with attacking
women, after robbing their es-
|corts in Kansas City, Wichita,
slKas., and other places was cap
,tured in Indianapolis, Ind, and
will be returned to Wichita, Kas.,
to stand trial for highway rob-
berry and attacking q young girl.
The officers learned Of a plot
to take Houser from the train at
Kansas City and lynch him and
SO far have not dared take him
to Kansas for fear he will be
shot while passing some town
where he has committed one Of
his awful crimes.
The manner, in which Houser
was finally captured reflects
credit on the Wichita department
which wired the Indianapolis Of
ficers that Houser, under the
name OF Buck Weaver. would VS.
it the Western Union telegraph
office last Saturday afternoon.
A relative of Houser in Wichita
was to have sent q telegram.
Houser, after four years Of free
doms walked into the trap and
was captured, but only after re-
.volver battle in which for a time
he seemed to have the advantage.
\ 14-year-old messenger boy who
deliberately ran his bycicle into
the. fleeing footpad, tripping him
and delaying him until the de-
tectivcs came up, proved himself
the hero of the capture.

Austrian Note Ready to
Be Forwarded to Vienna

Washington, Aug. 6.-The Ameri-
can reply to Austro- Hungary's recent
diplomatic note suggesting an embargo
on war exports to the allies, on the
ground that the traffic has grown to
proportions which violate American
neutrality, virtually has been finished
by the State Department and will be
dispatched to Vienna within a few
days.
The note reiterates the position of
the United States, as it was expressed
on previous occasion to Count Won
Bernstorff, the German Ambassador,
that the placing of an embargo on
the trade in arms at this time would
be direct violation of the neutrality of
the United States.''
Austria's contention that "a neutral
government is not permitted to allow
unhindered trade in contrabando of war,
If this trade assumes such a character
or proportions that the neutrality of
the country is thereby impaired" is
declared in the American reply to be
impractical. The United States con-
tends that a limit beyond which the
amount of war exports to belligerent
endangers the neutrality of a nonbel-
ligerent, cannot be arbitrarily set.
