O. J. deLendrecie Visits
. City For First Time
In Two Years

Fargo has lived up to my pre-
dictions. Years ago l said this city
would be the metropolis and bust
ness center Of the middle northwest"
So declared o. ]. deLendrecie, one
Of Fargo's first merchants, head of
the big deLendrecie department store,
now Of Los Angeles. Calf, visiting
Fargo for the first time in two years.
L note g. great many changes have
taken place in Fargo in the past two
years." said Mr.. deLendrecie today.
Fargo Is progressing, and progress
ing. fast. This progress will contin-
ue.'r .~....
Mr.. deLendrecie, ~ years Of age,
has been making his home in Cali
fornia for several years. He was I'M
able to say today how long his Fargo
visit would be.
That all depends on how feel. I
may stay month. and l may stay
two months. or longer. 1 am not as
strong and haven't the endurance
of few years ago; if l had ]
wouldn't be living in California. I
would rather my home were in Far

Likes the Old Work.
Today Mr.. deLendrecie spent much
time in his big store, virtually fill
ing the position Of floorwalker
= Many happy years l spent in the
store, and 1 still feel at home" he
said with a smile
~ - West Alive With War.
The west, and particularly southern
California, is alive with war activity
and a militant spirit. according to
Mr. deLendrecie.
They had a big patriotic parade
in Los Angeles shortly before / left,
and thousands upon thousands of
men. women and children. headed by
a battery Of artillery with full equip
ment, marched in line. There was
the widest enthusiasm along the line
of march"
Thousands of men are training at
San Diego, south of Los Angeles, and
it is not an uncommon sight to see
whole companies of men on the
streets, Mr.. deLendrecie says.

Watkins Hits
At Pool Halls

Bismarck, N. D., June 18.-"speak-
ing generally, the pool hall is law
less tnstituttonIeF said supt. Wat
kins of the North Dakota Law En-
forcement league, addressing the
council of defense Saturday morning.
Before the bone dry law became eff
fective, most Of them were selling liq-
uor, where they could get by with it.
They are now selling cigarettes. Many
are selling snuff, Many permit gam
bling. A very large per cent allow
minors under 10 to loiter about or
participate in the games. Pool halls
will have to clean up or we will pass
a law eliminating them entirely.
The council also heard pool hall
representatives. The hearing is on a
resolution passed by Labor's Loyal
legion at Fargo asking that pool halls
be closed during the daylight hours
through the summer.

WILL ACCELERATE
TIE PROGRESS OF
PUPILS TN FARGO
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
New Plan To Help Chill
dren Doing Excep-
tional Work
SAVE CITY
$1,000 "A YEAR
Permits Completion Of
Years Work In Half
That Period

The public schools Of Fargo will
make provisions for the rapid adj
vancement of certain children through
the elementary grades, as well as
through the high school, during the
next school year. This will be done
by taking pupils who have finished
the seventh grade, and who have
made a good record and putting them
through the eighth grade in a half
year.
In announcing the plan today, which
is, new one in the history Of Am
erican public schools, Supt Arthur
Deamer OF the Fargo CITY schools
said that it will not only save stu
dents Of exceptional learning qualifi-
cations a greal deal Of time, but will
incidentally save the city over 1000
a year. If the plan proves satisfac-
tory this year, says Mr.. Deamer, it
will be continued and enlarged upon.
learning Powers Vary.
TT is generally recognized said Mr..
Deamer today, that children vary
greatly in their ability to learn, some
getting their work quite easily while
others experience considerable Diff
9iculty. BY holding these pupils to-
gether' year after year, and. adjust
ing the work to that mythical
justice has been done not only to
the bright child and slow child but it
has tended to place a premium upon
n1ediocrity in our schools. While tbs
slow child has been struggling TO
reach the plane Of the average child
the bright child has often formed bad
habits OF work tiI o,tgh lack of APP
plication. It has Ieen impossible for
the teacher to be equally stimuiat-
ing to all pupils because Of this wide
range in abilities of children.
"SkippinJ" System FsiIuro.
1T Is doubtful If the method of
skipping grades formerly used to ac-
oelerate children, was the best under
the circumstances: To skip a years
work often caused disaster later be-
cause Of the large gap in the sub
ject matter which necessitated much
extra work on the part OF the pupil.
In general it Is noS felt to be advis-
able to Jump" grades save in rare
cases because OF the break in the
continuity of the subject matter of
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1918-06-18

the present crowded conditions Of the
schools. However, In the larger
schools it can be done without diff
ficulty as the group to be accelerated
often constitutes a class. To take
advantage of this provision in the
smaller schools it would be necessary
for the pupils to come from several
schools to get sufficient number OF
pupils to justify the. organization OF
special class.
80 Are Eligible.
Fargo expects to try out the sec
ond method next year. The eligibiI-
ity of each pupil is determined by
his scholastic record during the past
two years. Each student who has
made excellent or good" in reading,
geography, arithmetic, history, and
language Is eligible to enter this
class If his parents give their per
mission. 1t will be tried out in the
Horace Mann and Agassiz junior
high schools. About, 80 of the present
seventh graders in these schools come
in this group and have declared their
intentions Of entering the rapidly
advancing classes. These pupils will
probably finish the eighth grade by
the middle of the year. and enter
high school"

Steen VIII Get
Mjpot by 1000


Bismarck, N. D., June lS.-"Minot
city probably will give Steen lead
Of 1000 votes" said Judge H. B.
Goss OF Minot, recently OF the North
Dakota supreme court, today. While
Nonpartisanism was a side issue of
the Shaw victory. it must not be I'M
derstood that opposition to Shaw was
entirely Nonpartisan, and Minot will
be practically solid for Steen.
L have been out in the country
some, and I am satisfied that Steen
sentiment is growingand l believe
Steen will carry Ward county. From
what can learn in Bismarck coun-
ty, where used to live, Steen will
gain / 000~or 1900 votes over the
vote cast for non-league candidates
two years ago. From all indications
the farmers are beginning to think
and will vote on the merits Of the
candidates. That is all Steen can ask
it will insure his election"

Bulgaria Must
F1ndNezOP PREMIER
EBy Associated Press. !

A@-S ~AS1CSAAAGn' = EGE6sg
Sofia, Sunday, June 16, (vta AzYls-
terdam.) -Premier RadosIayofT has
rendered the resignation of the
cabinet and King Ferdinand has ac-
cepted 1t. The ministers were re-
quested by the king to retain their
portfolios until a. new cabinet has
been formed.
The downfall of Premier Radios
lavoff most probably Is due to the
feeling in Bulgaria that he did not
make the most of his opportunity In.
the negotiations during which peace
was forced on Rumania, and Ru-
mania compelled to give up the
Dobrudja. There also has been some
dissatisfaction over whether the
Central Powers would back up Bull
garia's territorial claims in Mace
donia.
The coalition cabinet of Premier
RadoslavofR who is the Liberal
leader. came into office several years
before the war and has been retain
ed since, with only a few minor
changes.
