Our community had half holiday
last Friday, at which time our new High
School building was dedicated and for
mally opened. A fine program had been
arranged and was carried out to the
satisfaction of all. From the primary
department to the seniors the entertain

study, both by scholars and teachers.
The good women of. the. town served an
excellent dinner at the town hall, after
which the dedicatory services at the
school began, lasting until late at night
The speaker of the evening, Prof. Cook,
Assistant State Superintendent of Ohio
Schools, spoke on the great needs of the
century for educated manhood and wo-
manhood, plainly showing that the
school of quarter of century age
has served its time and generation, but
that the successful man of the 10th cen
fury can no longer climb the ladder oi
success BY antiquated methods. The
speaker said in part that it was great
pity that there we're men to be fount
who advocated that the old time school
ing was sufficient because it had served
them very well. There are still mer

education was farce; yet we all ough

navia conference was opened yesterday
with speeches by King iIaakon of Norway
and King Gustave of Sewden, after which
ministers representing the three nations
conferred for several hours.
Fear of German threat that she would
seize base in Denmark should Norway
permit the allies to obtain a base in her
territory Is reported TO be behind the con
ference of the three Scandinavian kings.
From Copenhagen two weeks ago it was
reported the rulers of Norway, Sweden and
Denmark, with their premiers and foreign
would meet in the Norwegian
capital on November %.
Ii j. now disclosed that hostility to Ger
many in Norway has reached such stage
that Germany believed Norway was about
to give aid 10 the allies and To counteract
such a possibility informed Denmark that
II such q step was taken Germany would
occupy Denmark a. counter measure.
This is said to have brought about the
recent conference between the kings of
