The tomb was sealed, the watch was set.
Within the portals lay the form
Who by the host Of heaven was met,
As he arose on Easter morn
When the Angel rolled away the stone,
The risen Lord In glory shone,
And though the tomb was sealed, =
Resurrection was revealed.
The Roman guard in terror fled
From the Angel bright, with flaming sword.
When the Son Of Man rose from the dead,
And spoke to frightened souls the word
That conquers sin, prevails DER death,
Transports the soul at parting breath,
And though the tomb was sealed,
Resurrection was revealed.
The Magdalen. with pious love,
At early morning sought the tomb,
Was met by Angel from above,
Who pointed to the empty room,
The grave clothes on the floor were spread,
Not with the napkin that pressed his head;
And though the tomb was sealed,
Resurrection was revealed.
"Who seek we hers7" the Angel said
To Mary. who was bound in prayer
"The living Christ among the dead
He is MOI here, but will appear
In glory. filing all the skies,
The pardoned sinners sacr flee"
And though the tomb was sealed,
Resurrection was revealed.

This chapter in the story Of the VIII

suffering, pathos and human interest,
1t is one which touched the hearts Of
friends and caused them to pour out

Five years ago E. 0. Wilson, his wife

FIFTEEN TAKING
EXAMINATIONS
Regular Quarterly Tests
Being Offered
10. Today

Fifteen school teachers are taking
the regular quarterly examination
for elementary certificates at the
courthouse. The examinations open
ed this morning.
Under the new regulations an
nounced by the state board Of educa-
ton, high school graduates who have
taken a course in pedagogy are en-
titled to a fourth grade certificate
without taking the examinations.
However, high school graduates of
the old school, when pedagogy was
not taught, must now take the
examination in this particular sub
ject and pass in order to get fourth
grade diploma.
Many high schools Of North Dalko-
Ia and the northwest have during
the last few years introduced peda-
gogy in the Curriculum and the
graduates Of these schools find them
selves fortunate in not having to
take an examination.
Several graduates of high schools
which did not offer this course, were
among the fifteen who took the
examinations today

Only Eight British Vessels
of 1000 Ton Glass
Sunk
LOWEST MARK SINCE
LID" WAS REMOVED
French and italian Losses
Are Also Much Smaller
Than Usual
INV Associated Press.)

London, Nov. S.-A marked de-
crease in the British merchant ships
sunk during the last week, is noted
in the admiralty report last night
Only eight vessels over 1,6O0 tons
were sunk by mine or submarine, and
four vessels under that tonnage. No
fishing vessels were sunk.
The summary:
Arrivals, 1854; sailings, 1878.
British merchant vessels over l,6OU
tons sunk by mine or submarine, ~
Guiding two previously, eight; under
1000 tons, including one previously
four. Fishing vessels sunk, none.
British merchant vessels unsuccess-
fully attacked, including hVe preVl-
ously. six.
Paris. Nov. S.-The losses to French
shipping by submarine or mine In
the week ending Nov. 4, were one
vessel over 1000 tons and one under
that tonnage.
Rome. Nov. S.-The Italian ship
ming losses from submarines in all
seas for the week ending Nov. 4
were two steamers under $500 tons
and three sailing craft under 100
tons.
The sinkings of British merchant
ships, recorded in the latest admir-
atty report, are the smallest in point
of number since the unrestricted
submarine warfare began early in
the year. They probably are small
est in tonnage also for while in the
week ending Sept. 16 only eight ves-
sells of 1000 tons or over were sunk,
20 vessels under that tonnage were
destroyed. The next best record in
point of number was in the week
ending Sept. 80, when IL vessels were
sunk, II large and two small.

LICENSE FOR
EVERY BAKER
Food Administration Try
ing To Bring Lower
Prices for Bread
CRx Associated Prsss.l

10y ASSOCldIGQ ETGSS.l
Washington, Nov. SAN attempt
to reduce bread prices will be the
next move Of the food administration
in assuming control of the principal
food commodities. At the request of
H. c. Hoover, President wilson will
issue, within q few days, an order
directing that every baker in the
country be required to do business
under federal license.
Rules and regulations governing
the baking industry already have
been drawn up by the food admins
tration, and will be put into opera
ton as soon as the executive order
is out. They will provide a stand
ardized loaf Of probably two sizes
and standardization of the bread con-
tent. A bread formula has been
selected and bakers will be permitted
to use no other.
The new war bread will contain a
reduced amount of fats, as both the
lard and milk content will be cut
down considerably. 1t probably will
be produced in 20-ounce and 10
ounce loaves.
No prices will be fixed outright,
but the regulations will prescribe
that only reasonable prices may be
charged. Consumers committees
have reported that in most places
Ioaves of this size can be sold at 10
and cents, respectively.
Food administration officials are
giving serious consideration to the
situation created by the short wheat
crop, and it is believed likely that
before many months bakers may be
required to add a certain amount OF
corn flour in baking bread. Dietetic
experts now are working out formulas
containing wheat -four substitutes.
