Writes From China.

Arnold Freed, an Isanti boy, who is
now at the U. S. Navy Station in Asia,
had an interesting letter in the last
issue of the Isanti News, describing
in China, where he has been
for the past % months. He reports
that the Chinese cities are we'll nigh
the limit; the streets are narrow and
usually filled with mud and Shiny filth.
Each city has an odor peculiarly. it's
own, and far from refreshing. The
of the people are so poor
that they own nothing but what they
wear, and many of the children wear
no clothes. The houses are made of
straw and mud and contain little or no
furniture. Mr.. Freed says that the
Chinese are extremely lazy, which is
not surprising, as there is little incent-
i've to work. Those who do not relish
starvation are forced to labor very
hard for few cents a day.

was around year ago talking con-

covered that people were not in favor
OF it she used strong influence in d.

would be more easy to force us to
consolidate. Now we have two good
school houses and have been success
tul in securing good teachers and feel
that our children can secure a good
eighth grade education here. Those
who are DESTROYS of sending their
children to high school can do so with
less expense than to have them hauled
around in a bus, not knowing what
accidents or trouble they may get
in to. We are paying heavy taxes
now without being thrown out of our
school houses to help build thinner
man school. We are just waiting
for Mrs. Conger to come around with
her smooth story, asking people to
support her for election again.

Washington, May 3.-Failure of Ger
many to reply to the latest American
note demanding an abandonment of
present submarine methods immedi-
ately, and lack of word from Ambas.
sador Gerard, has created an air of
grave concern in administration cir
cles.
Two weeks have passed since the
United States dispatched to Germany
its note and the state department is
still without any definite information.
Publicly, officials continue to pre-
serve an air of optimism. Privately,
no attempt is made to conceal con-
trary feeling.
1t is felt. here that the very length
of time III itself indicates the COM
munication will not take the shape of
simple response to the direct issue
raised in the American note
1t is feared the reply is likely to as
sumo an argumentative character,
which scarcely can be regarded as
meeting the requirements of the Unit
ed States.
