BABY BURNED BEFORE
HELPLESS MOTHERS EYES

Bismarck, June 5.-While his mother
stood by helpless to aid, the two-year-
old son of Dallas Gunder, a farmer
living near New Salem, was burned to
death Friday afternoon in flames that
totally destroyed the house and all the
household possessions.
Mrs. Gunder was the only one at
home at the time, Mr.. Gunder and
others being in New Salem trading.
She was working in summer kitch-
en- preparing supper and knew moth
ing Of the fire which started in the
attic of somn unknown origin.
Sounds of breaking timbers called
Mrs. Gunder's attention and she dis
covered that the ceiling and upper
floor of the house had fallen into the
room where her two-year-old son
was sleeping, literally burying the
child in an oven of flames.
Despite her frantic efforts she could
not reach her babe and gave up the
fight only after she was terribly burn
ed about the face and hands. She
was in Mysteries and PROSTATE with
grief when the family returned home
a short time later. .r.
When the ruins of the home were
searched this morning the child, burn
to crisp was found. Funeral ser:
vices for the little victim Of the awful
tragedy were held this morning.
The Gunders lost all of their house
hold possessions in the fire which
caused a loss of approximately $4,000
covered by from $500 to $500 worth OF
insurance.

M'ADOO MAY QUIT OFFICE

Chicago, June 5.-Secretary of the
Treasury William G. McAdoo, Presi-
dent Wilson's son-in-law, is slated to
become the chairman of the Democra-
tic national committee and assume ac-
tive management of the presidents
campaign for reelection.
This being true, Mr.. McAdoo will re-
sign as secretary of the treasury i'm
mediately upon his election to the
craftsmanship.
This information comes directly
from Washington and is understood to
reflect the wishes of the administra-
ton.
The serious obstacle in the way of
successful elimination of this plan, it
is understood, would be objection of
the national committee to going out
side it's own membership to get a
chairman, although precedent the 9th.
er way was established only four years
ago.
Secretary McAdoo, everybody seems
to agree, is in condition to qualify as
an expert gatherer of the ready money
necessary. His good friend, Jacob
Schiff, is one of the chief organizers
and head of the Wilson nonpartisar
league.

Supt. 6. ". Hanna Gives
Address at Grand Forks

On Thursday, May 49, at Grand
Forks, occurred symposium OF short
addresses on the general theme, THE
Most Essential Consideration for Sec
ondary Education in North Dakota.
Supt. Hanna was one of seven to give
addresses, and his was as follows:
1.-THE most important aim in second
ary education is to make every student
a success. Practically every graduate
of the elementary school should attend
the high school, and this should be
adapted to him. The grades used to
be regarded as the school minimum;
but within the last decade the high
school has been put forward as the
minimum. Along with this new con
ception has come the notion that it is
the function of both the elementary
and the high school to bring out the
very best in each normal individual
whether weak or strong, bOoklsh or
motor.minded. Even the weak student
is entitled not merely to his share OF
time but to as great a success, meas
ured by his possibilities, as the cream
of the flock. In all Our secondary
schools our graduating classes are
much smaller than our freshman
classes, and a majority of those who
drop out are the weaker students and
those who think in the concrete or
through muscular expression. 1t is the
ameliOration of this condition that
should command our thought and con-
troll our action in all the plans we
make.
'SuperVisiOn is in danger of insist
ing upon converting everything into a
measuring rod With the idea that
education was for the favored few the
road to learning could be made steep
and narrow, and the greater the num-
Der who were excluded from reaching
the goal, the higher the quality of
learning and the standards used. Then
narrow course Of study could be laid
down for all, and the tests could ig-
more all personal and individual traits,
for standards were infallible and abso-
lutte and too sacred to be lowered in
the interests of few thousand cheap
grade students! In those days we
merely measured what was poured in
to our pupils; but the time has come
when we need rather to measure how
nearly each student has measured up
to his own possibilities. Standards
should not be used so Unfortunately
as formerly, for the personal element
is now known to be too important to
be overlooked. Standards may be good
or bad and they may help or hinder.
With a shifting of the fundamental
viewpoint our supervisory machinery
must be overhauled.
II do not mean that we should have
no standards and no accepted ideals;
but we should standardize in the in
terest of the weak, of the average, and
of those who do not reason in the alb
stract All standards must be flexible,
and the man who bends them to wor-
thy ends must not be construed as an
outlaw. We should apply standards as
measures of the individuals own pos
sibilities, rather than as comparison
with some one else"
