TO HIGH COURT


Mitchell, July 26.-En1oined by
Judge Wilbur f. Booth of the federal
circuit court at Minneapolis, from in
terfering with the system or business
of the Dakota Central Telephone
in the city of Mitchell, the
city council has decided by unani-
nous vote to carry the fight to the
United States circuit court of appeals
or the United States supreme court.
The case has been in litigation
since 1913, when the franchise OF
the Dakota Central to operate a local
telephone exchange expired. The con-
tention was raised by the company
that it's local exchange was a part OF
its long distance system and could
not be interfered with by the city.
Several other cases or points or diff
ference are now in litigation In the
circuit and state supreme court. In
1918 the citizens of Mitchell voted TO
build a municipal telephone system,
but the matter has been delayed by
injunction proceedings, which are
still pending.

ACCIDENT
Volga Boy Has His Foot Cut on
by Mower.

Volga, July 26.-As the result OF
a harvesting accident, Charles John
son, a boy, while watching his broth
er-in-law, Herman Johnson, and an
other man conducting moving opera
tions had one of his feet cut off by a
mower. The boy became so interest
ed in watching the moving machine
work that he stepped directly in
front of ii and the sicklebar cut off
his foot above the ankle. The heel
of the other foot also was badly cut.
A rope was twisted around the stump
of the leg from which the foot was
cut. and this prevented the boy bleed
ing to death pending the arrival of a
physician. The injured boy, who
thus will be crippled for life, states
that no one but himself was to blame
for the unfortunate accident.

II was with decided firmness that
Robert Gregory. mine manager, spoke.
1t was with r%esentful lips and a deep

Don't stand in your own light, Greg

the young manager freely. MY mind
is with the men. You order the old

above the two h~undred-foot level.
There isn't a man in the gangs you
could hire to 90 down Old Seven. They
know that poisoned air, fire damp,

Dale irritably. q don't ask them to go

"A dozen lives are worth more than
that" suggested Gregory steadily.
Dale lost all patience with him. He
looked ugly and menacing as he
asked with an angry catch in his voice:
Then you refuse to give the order

Positively. Mr.. Ransom. the presi-
dent OF the company, may do SOL will

But it is his expectancy to have the

Mr.. BARRIE IN THE CHAIR
How Popular Scotch Author Served
as Chairman of a Burns
Celebration.

There is only n recorded instance
of Sir ]. M. Barrie's acting as chair
man of a public meeting. In the Cen
fury Magazine John d. Williams has
recently told the story to the Ameri.
can public. Ii was on the occasion of
a Burns celebration.
Barrie took the chair as presiding
officer and then kept to it firmly.
Throughout the entire proceedings he
did not utter a single word, but re-
NAMED as if glued to the horribly con-
spicuous chair, loathing his predica-
ment. but inwardly amused at the ex-
pressions on the faces of all about
him. which made dismally clear the
fact that he was a failure as a presid-
ing officer.
When the meeting was almost half
finished Barrie took advantage of a
talkative group in front of him and
1nietly stole away before anyone had
q Snce to miss him. But the next
vsekN w~ell-known Saturday review
(efnted n satirical article called MI.

simply whitening in its ironical ac-
count of the dumb presiding officer
who eventually ned. leaving a meeting
to preside over itself. The greatest
regret was naturally expressed by
those who had persuaded Barrie to
come to the Burns celebration, and
among his friends tremendous indig-
nation was felt and vented But some
day they viii know. If they have not
already found out, that the article
was written by Barrie himselfl

senting a clinching argument, "hesi-
tation on your part may lead to the
loss of his confidence and-well, that
also of his family"
Gregory bowed with dignity and was
silent, but he left the Office fully aware
of the significance of those last words.
They referred to Miss Beatrice Ran
som, daughter and heiress of the rich
and powerful owner of the ~Blythesdale
coal mines.
The allusion had disturbed Gregory.
AS he proceeded on his way his brain
was hard at work, seeking to devise
some method of tapping the new vein
without risk. There was a way and
he had suggested it, but il involved
two months labor and considerable
expense.
On his way to the shaft house the
young manager paused in front of one
of the numerous wretched shacks that
lined the road. A small poor crowd
surrounded the place. In the front
yard were a score or more Of house

! ASSISTING TEACHERS

Manv persons who are now teach
ing and those who expect to teach
find it impossible to attend the Uni
versity or one of the Normal Schools.
While the Extension Department OF
the College of Agriculture is primari-
ly interested in assisting the farmers
of the state, it recognizes that one OF
the most effective ways of reaching
the farmer is through the school sys-
tenn; therefore, with the beginning of
the present year, correspondence
courses in agriculture and nature
study were organized.
The purpose of these courses is to
give instruction which the teacher
may use in the school room, to assist
teachers and prospective teachers in
preparing for the state uniform
teachers examination and also to
teach some of the fundamental prin-
ciples of successful farming. The
course in agriculture, as outlined
deals with corn, horticulture, poultry
care of farm animals, the dairy COW
forage crops, types and breeds OF
farm animals, farm machinery, farm
management, the home garden and
methods of teaching the same. The
course in nature study deals with 9
number of phases of nature which are
of interest to teachers and others who
desire to know more concerning theil
environment M. j. Abbey, Supervis
or of Agricultural Education in the
Public Schools, is the instructor.
