A Visitors Opinion.
In its issue of April 81, 1915, the
Aberdeen World had the following:
school Superintendent J. w.
Hodge, who has Just returned from q
visit to the girls training school at
Grand Mound, can't say words Of
praise enough for the work being
done by the superintendent, Miss
Mary A. Campbell, and her assistants
at the girls school. He says appar-
entity the whole school has gotten
away from the idea that 1t is an in
stitution for incorrigible girls, and
instead works on the plan that it is
school for regeneration and of right
influence.
Zone some way" feels the atmos-
phere of home, of love, of hope and
of right influence" he said. "The
school grounds, the buildings and the
rooms are as neat as pins, and the
prettiest, most pleasing part Of the
whole thing is the bright, happy
faces of the girls going cheerfully,
happily about their tasks.
1.-THE girls, under the tuition OF
their teachers, do everything about
the place. Not only do they manage
the housekeeping, cooking and sew
ing, but they manage the herd of
cows, the pigs, the horses. the engine
room, the laundry and even the farm.
"They have a real farm Of many
acres, and except for the blowing and
the girls do all the work.
Moreover, they make the farm show
a profit. This work is not compul-
sorry. It is done by volunteers, under
a woman farmer, and they tell me,
the girls and all. or almost all. want
to do it. They like getting out in
the open. They like to be tnstru-
mental in seeing life terminate and
grow and fruit.
"And the present administration,
under which this school was born and
has grown can we'll feel proud Of the
great work that 10 being done for the

QUARTER MILLION OF
 RUSSIANS EXPECTED

PARIS, April 27-Due to the heavy storm encounterd in the Mediterranean, the arrival of the Russian transports with the largo re-enforcement of soldiers for the allies-Swas delayed considerable. The delay, however, caused no anxiety because every precaution for their protection had been taken
 The coming of Russian troops to the western front has been talk ed of by military people for two or three months. The reason for bringing the Russian troops here is given that it is easier to arm and supply fighting material to those troops on the western front than on the eastern front.
 It is said, that Russia ias still many hundred thousand men under training than she can use on her fighting lines, due to the lack of ammunition and other supplies. It is thought that possibly 250,000 Rus sians will be brought into France this spring.

SUNFLOWER PITH IS
 LIGHTER THAN CORK

The pith or medullin of the sun flower stalk is by far the lightest known vegetable substance. The structure and formation of all piths are essentially very similar, being composed of thin-walled cellular tissue. The cells filling the interior of the sunflower stalk when young contain sap and large number of starch grains.
 The starch gradually disappears as the foliage, which is in com munication with the pith, becomes fully organized. After the leaves are developed the pith soon dries up, leaving only the very thin walls of the cells.
 The pith in this state has speci- fc gravity of OOPS, while that of cork is 0.24. One of it's chief uses is the making of life-saving ap- pliances.

THE BRITISH BLACKLIST.

Brooklyn Eagle: It is an essentially In
client threat. It justifes the resentment of
he United States, and we shall be surprised
( such resentment Is not quickly voiced by
he Washington administration.
New York Times: Quite the most tact
less, foolish, and unnecessary act of the
British government during the war, unless
nur observation has been much at fault, 10
he drawing up Of q blacklist Of some four
ycore business Arms and individuals in this
country, with whom British subjects, under
the British trading with the enemy act, are
forbidden to trade.
st. Louis Globe Democrat: Whether we
have any remedy that would not be worse
than the disease or not, It 10 certain that
the State department will suffer from no
lack of verbal ammunition In attacking the
latest British enlargement of the so-called
trading with the enemy" inhibitions. Black
listing American firms because Of the
antecedents Of some of the members is a
gross insult to the United States. Our citi-
;ens are our citizens, no matter where they
were born or to what flag they once owed
allegiance.
Chicago Tribune: These restrictions take
the aspect Of acts against q belligerent. The
assurance that our interests are being dealt
with as considerably and generously as the
situation will permit does not take the sting
out Of the proceedings. Our own authori-
ties In international law say that the case
calls for reprisal. We do not believe that
the United States wishes to act as If it
were a spoiled child and we believe it has
endeavored to adjust itself to abnormal con-
litions, but Great Britain shows a lack Of
Intelligence in extending the blacklist to
America.
Boston Transcript: Investigation Of the
cases of Arms and individuals on the British
blacklist proves that in many cases they are
native American citizens. and that their only
offense Is that In the past their business has
been largely with Germany. But 1t Is not
with Germany now. because they cannot
deal with that country. Why should they
be penalized for that7 II does not appear
likely that the British government can
maintain the attitude which 1t seems to
have assumed so hastily.

Passing of Two Great Men.

Two men who wrought for humanity in diff
ferent fields, but who saw the world through eyes
not dimmed by material things, have just gone
on ahead. James Whtcomb Riley won a poets
bays because he sang the homeiy songs of the
people in phrase and meter that touched the
heart. William Ramsay gained eminence because
he could look through matter and visualize some
thing beyond the mere substance he held in his
hand. In response to his Imagination, a new
world has opened to science, and man is given to
understand something closer to the truth than he
ever before approached Who will presume to
put value on the real service Of either of these
menl The one soothed the rest Of weary world,
the other excited its desire for further endeavor,
but both served. Riley's songs will be familiar
to millions who never will read Ramsay's con-
illusions, but those millions will be the better
housed and fed because the chemist wrought his
work Of inquiry. Each served we'll in his own
work. and the world is advantaged because they
did
