Back Up Your Thoughts by
Your Name.

Often people come into the Of
flee and ask us to say such and
such a thing about person.
We tell them we'd be glad to
put in their article if they II sign
their name to it. We never see
the article. The signing Of their
own name is too much for them
and they walk off in a very un-
pleasant state Of mind.
The Minot Optic-Reporter has
had much the same experience
and writes Of it as follows:
t'There is a certain class Of
individuals who seem to think
that a newspaper exists for Che
sole purpose Of allowing them to
say things sneakingly and un-
der hidden identities that they
do not have the manhood to say.
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17
INSTITUTE
HERE THIS WEEK
CONTINUED from page ~

NAL, 30 from high school and IL
who are graduates from both, a
high school and normal. There
are no university graduates.
Two completed private schools
and one parochial school.
There are ten states represent
ed among the teachers. North
Dakota is the home Of "a Of the
teachers, Is live in Minnesota
and IA in Indiana. The other
seven states only claim few.
The instructors in institute are
Prof. Wemett and Miss Burns,
both from the Valley City Nor
NAL. They have given the teach
ers outlines Of work to follow
during the year and other school
hints that will be of great assist
ance to them. '
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17

After seeing all the teachers
Of Mclean county for a week
while they were here attending
institute, we have more cause
than ever of being proud Of our
educators. They are cultured
and delightful people. to meet
and will do good work for our
young folks this winter. Many
are in this state for the first,
time while Others were born and
raised here. Nearly all have had
training for school work and will
conduct succ ssssful schools.
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17

personally and openly. The Optic
Reporter is in receipt of the fol-
lowing from an individual who
lives in another state who desires
to say a lot Of things anent
some of the nations now at war
that he does not seem to have
the courage 20 say openly:
If you will kindly accept
and make use of the enclos-
ed "essage" for the bene-
fit Of the country, and kind
ly withhold my name, you
will greatly oblige.
That kind Of cowardice does
not 60 with any decent newspa-
per. LIN the first place, the man
who is too cowardly to sign his
name to publication is too in
significant intellectually to have
any message worth hearing. II
he has something that he is not
willing to take the consequens-
es for uttering, he is besmirch-
ing someone's character.
There is another class of in
dividuals who want to prostitute
the newspaper for their malign
purposes. Something occurs
which the person does not like
and he ralshes to the newspaper
to have ga piece printed about
the other fellow that shall make
him scringe and writhe in agony.
II the newspaper refuses flat
footedly to be made the sewer
for the carrying Of such person
alities, the individual thinks he
has not been treated fairly and
becomes knOcker of the paper.
He did not have the manhood or
the courage to say:what he want.
ed to say to the other fellow, but
he wanted the paper to say for
him the things he was too cow
ardly to say himself. 1t makes no
difference to him what the con-
sequences to the paper are so
long as he is enabled to vent his
spleen by a secret course.
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17
Two sattIss.

Two 0AtUO0s
Porfrio Diaz gained national promi-
nence and won his spurs at the battle
Of Puebla, where the Liberal forces
made a gallant but Intellectual stand
against the French, who had invaded
Mexico for the purpose Of erecting a
throne for Macmillan. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the Mexican forces
were defeated, their defense against
superior numbers was SO gallant that
the anniversary Of the battle Of the
9th Of May became a national holiday
In Mexico.
"A brusque American once asked
piax. why do you 3fexicans celebrate
q defeat when you know that the
French took Puebla?'
President Diaz, with twinkle In his
eye, replied, Perhaps we have imi-
tated the Americans even to the extent
Of celebrating our defeats, for have
been told that the British defeated the
scolonists at Bunker Hill. and yet you
builtfa monument to commemorate the
event"

wh.r. sh. Differed From Paul.

Where She Differed From Paul.
A Scotch clergyman called upon. a
parishioner. an old woman who was
not possessed with many virtues. but
who possessed a very varied assort-
ment Of vices. He took the latter as
/ text for sermon and spoke to her
at considerable length upon the sub
ject. concluding with some extracts
from one of st. Paul's epistles which
he felt to be apropos.
She didn't speak for several minutes
after he had finished. and he thought
that he had made an impression upon
her at last. He was mistaken. how
ever, for she suddenly turned round
with the remark: "Humph! That's just
where Paul and have differed these
ten years."
The argument was not continued.
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17
Institute Notes.

ALI the teachers enjoyed a
"corn roast" given in the. park
Thursday evening by the young
men of Washburn.
A dance will be given this
evening for the teachers after
the picture show.
All the public schools in the
county but one were represents
ed at institute, the teachers stay
ing through the entire week.
The rain Monday and Tuesday
made everyone think the week
was to be as wet as it was last
year and the year before.
The Washburn Glee club and
Miss Flynn gave a short program
at institute Thursday morning.
There are 33 here who attend
ed the Valley City Normal. They
will have a Jubilee tonight.
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17
The Result.

One of the characteristics of II. H.
Rogers of Standard Oil fame was his
love of a joke even ut his own ex-
pense. The humor lost nothing by that
in Mr.. Rogers opinion. This was one
of his favorite stories:
He. William G. Whitney and several
other friends were discussing the sue
cession to the presidency Of Yale. then
vacant before the election of Professor
Hadley, who then held the chair Of
economics. Another professor, longer
at the university than DR.. Hadley, was
q candidate. and his chances Of win
ming the honor were under discussion.
"Well." said Mr.. Rogers. III had
been as long around Yale as Professor
So-and-so I'd be president"
mo. Henry" retorted Mr.. Whitney.
You would probably own the ground
and the buildings. but you would not
be president"
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17
Model Railway Guide.

"VsVt VS~""~y S0t0os
Some thirty years ago Bill Nye and
James Whitcomb Riley published a
railway guide. "What this country
needs" they said, "is railway guide
which shall not be cursed by a pleth-
ora Of facts or poisoned with in
formation. In other railway guides
pleasing fancy, poesy and literary
beauty have been throttled at the very
threshold by wild incontinence of
facts, figures and reference to meal
stations. For this reason guide has
been built at our own shops and on a
new plan. 1t will not permit informa
ton to creep in and mar the readers
enjoyment Of the scenery"
The Washburn leader., 1915-09-17
Willing 70 Assist.

There was worthy Irish member Of
parliament who was 20 generous that
Z request for financial assistance was
never refused. But his checks had one
little drawback-th they were never hon.
ored. The shortcoming naturally In
time became known, but It did not af-
feet his popularity. A visitor to the
district, hearing Of the members Pc
culiarity, asked leading politician
bow It was that public faith In the
member was not shaken. "Why. sure,
It Is because he shows his willingness
q assist but for lack Of funds" was
the reply.
