With the Editors
DEVINE AND MAKDAN.

The acceptance OF the Superlntend-
ency of the reform school at Mandan
by Joseph NJ. Devine, is a fortunate
thing for the state, and especially for
the young, wards of the common
wealth who by some slip of conduct
become inmates III the institution
The position is one in, which the
right thinking individual cannot ap-
prove, the incumbent without believ-
Ing tAatheteiy7J word 80 iiussd Us for
the best Of the school and the state
In a word. any approYaF of Mr.. De.
vine for this position Should be- SIM
cere, and, not merely a, passing, no:
tice of good Will. For this reason the
Optic-Reporter, does not hesitate to
sayjthat, no better equipped man
could have been elected, GnV 3,,,; :
Mr.. Deyine is a man Of mature age,
ripe experience fandiQ broad views!
These are among the essential qualif;;
cations required. He is a clean mar
morally, though such should go with
out saying in any one considered for
such4a JnositionE HHe>is AMMAN of fam
ily, and is thereby insensibly quail
fed for the work of properly dealing
with, the guiding hand, and uplift-
ing counsel of a father than the stern
power Of the disciplinarian. His
broad scholarship and wide investi-
cation and study in the long years
of his life eminently qualify him for
the delicate and important task of
determining what, of all the great
field of human knowledge is best to
be selected as the specific amount for
the use of the boys whose capacities
as we'll as their environment place a
limit on their field Of knowledge.
We doubt if a nor important re-
quisite is needed in the individual
who occupies. such a position. ,
As a practical teacher and discip-
linarian Mr.. Devine is especially
fitted for his task. He has the mas
terful 'cinherent"'power to control be-
cause of bis commanding personality,
rather than the altifcialF methods of
the average disciplinarian. He is
among boys what the psychologists
term a born leader" He will be
obeyed, not" so -mueh-through fear as
through respect. He is able to ap-
peal to and bring out of the boys
who will betunder his charge the best
that is in them. Their latent nan;
hood will be wifi, him the Seed to
be nurtured into honorable and indus
trious citizenship. Other men may
have these essential qualifications
for the place, but we doubt if in a
greater degree than that of the in.
coming superintendent of the Man.
dan reform school. B
The institution needs not only a
man at the head who is Industrious
citizenship. Other men may have
these essential under his control,
but likewise a capable business man
Large sums of money are handled
by the school; a large number of
subordinates are employed; a large
amount of work is done. And al
these require a man of good business
ability and mature business judg
ment. Mr.. Devine has these.
From every standpoint, the selec
ton seems an eminently good one
for the state.-Minot Optic-Reporter

sHoDDY GOODS.

r Reports from Paris state that an
unfortunate situation has arisen in
France in connection with the letting
of contracts to American mercantile
houses because goods when delivered
are rarely up to sample. 1t is said
that several American contracts have
been Cancelled, and that OF twenty
five concerns in the United States
with which the French government is
doing business, only one may be de.
pended upon always to deliver goods
in accordance with specifications.
This complaint has a ring that is
altogether too familiar. Furthermore,
the same criticism from Cen.
trail and South America, from Asia,
from practically every part of the
world. Continually foreign merchants
complain that the goods they receive
from us are either not up to specifica-
tons Or SO poorly Grated that they ar
rive at their destinations in ruinous
condition. America never before had
such an opportunity to make new
strides in it's transatlantic business,
SO it is peculiarly unfortunate that
these reports should come at this
time. BY exercising proper Judgment
American merchants might gain a
foothold in the Old World which no
competition could shake. Russia has
made a bid for our business, promis-
ing to throw our way all the trade
that formerly went to Germany. 1t
will be foolish, indeed, if our mer-
chants do not rise to the occasion,
either because they are careless, or
because they shortsightedly think on
" Of immediate profit, thus throwing
away n Of the greatest %opportuni.
ties of the century.

n JUNE BRIDE.

. Many have sought to give advice to
the June bride. Some of it is vel
coined and followed, much of it is
not. Some suggest that the prospect
i've bride is not as we'll trained for
housekeeping as she might be. There
recently came to our attention some
advice offered to June brides which
dealt amusingly and satirically with
this fact. Many / June bride, the ar
ticle afiirms, who has used her moth
er as a servant instead of a partner
and companion, does not even know
the formula for hash. Many do not
have the least suspicion that baking
soda will stske: he burn out of bis
tiers SaaRst the tea Kettle inadvert-
emily Stops cupful of boiling water
over feet only partially protected by
last years dancing pumps. Girls who
are lgHprant ,of tAhsse little kitchen
expefae nces& should therefore select a
man Who is drawing salarysenough to
AFFORD a maid. Some girls have al
ways preferre3tte let, tllsir mother do
the washing y Aroping while they
e1perlnented with Some new fudge
recipe. The ggtrls consequently do
not know that NAL" FED flannel shirts,
should not be boiled in the same wa
ter with laces and other lingerie.
Girls devoid OF these little essentials
Of domesticity should carefully plan
to obtain the affections Of a young
man who detests seeing his wife at
4 washtub.
"On the other hand, when a June
bride selects a young man to reform
him, grandma generally brings up the
children. Grandma has already
brought up her own brood. 1t would
be o than decent, under the
circumstances, to make it easy for
grandma III her last years BY select
ing for yourself a husband X who
doesn't need reforming The same
writer concludes hts advice BY saying
Neither should a young man be dis
carded because he is homely. A
homely young man, keenly aware of
his facial mistakes, generally wor-
ships feminine beauty. And being a
%worshiper, he is generally tickled to
death to be favored by his loves cold
feet in his back. A homely young
man may. be deformed in his face,
and, like a last seasons straw hat, be
something you don't care to exhibit
in public any oftener than is neces-
sary, yet girls should remember that
not in%frequently the handsome, physi-
cally perfect young Apollos are con-
cealing such little deformities as
horns and the cloven hoof. Stop!
look! Listen! Safety first! In 9TH
er words, girls, be careful. Here's 70
happiness. May your side dishes ever
be numerous and your trunks ever
too few for your WARDROBE"
But with the interest now taken in
domestic science, and the disposition
Of conscientious girls to learn a little
about housekeeping, both in theory
and practice, and to give their moth
ers a, little time to attend the club,
1t may confidently be expected that
this years June brides will not. be
such Indifferent housekeepers as the
genial s%atirist, above quoted, would
lead US to believe.

The corn may be piled on the ground
