enough to be present some very use
full and instructive suggestions as to
the proper methods of organizations

CHARACTER WRECKERS.

Attacks under the best conditions
upon the characters of other people,
idle gossip, SANDER, suspicion and
Reconstruction of motives are fruit
full sources of trouble making, es-
pecially when these lead to attacks
upon public men and those who are
doing the worlds work. There are
those who aim in life seems to be to
fill their souls with poison of this
kind and pour it into the public mind,
often in regard to overbardened pub
lie men, making chem less efficient
than they might o'hefw:4e be, and
creating conditions that lowers ca
pac.ty for producing results in the
complicated structure OF human So
ciety. The harm that - done is be-
yond all estimate, as those whose pro-
fession has to do with mental con-
ditions from a medical standpoint Of
view could show. The person who
deliberately evolves such Il condition
in others is nothing less than Grim
inal, and there cugat to be ways IF

4 SENSIBLE MEMORIAL
Let Us Get Together and Build Memorial that will be
Sensible and Of Use.

Sentiment in the city is rapidly
being crystalized towards a memorial
that will be all that the name implies
for the boys that left and went forth
from this community to battle for
liberty and democracy. Instead of
building a monument let US get to-
gether and erect a Community Mem
orial Building.
This building should contain an
auditorium, gymnasium, library,
swimming pool, billiard hall, bowl
ing alley and other necessary rooms
to be utilized as community center.
A method of financing move
ment of this kind should at once be
inaugurated. In city of this kind
where money has been no object du-
ring the war and every activity has
been over financed, few more dol
lars should be easy to get and es-
pecially for a memorial of this ma
ture. Our War Work Fund could be
made to cover the initial expenses of
erection and the city could finance
the maintenance in the years to fol-
low. 1t has been perfectly easy to
raise thousands of dollars here and
we are of the opinion that several
thousands more could be raised for
this purpose without causing hard

ship on anybody. Just supposing
for example, that the War Work
Fund was continued, say for a
period of five years. This with the
addition of larger contributions from
those more able to give would make
up quite fund.
A building of this kind is needed
here very badly. This is the &C
copied time to get busy on the prop
osition. To erect it and dedicate it
as a memorial for the boys in the
service, who will soon return, and
for those who gave their lives for the
country, would be most fitting me-
mortal for, the brave lads and stand
for years as monument to show
the gratitude of those who remained
at home.
Many places in the United States
are erecting marble shafts and other
monuments to their soldier heroes.
The community center building en-
bodying all that is needed here, will
be far grander testimonial than any
marble shaft or tablet of stone OF
iron.
Now is the accepted time to begin
the work and get things in shape foI
just such move.
Let US get together and talk the
thing over.

able for Northern Minnesota.
The big potato show held at
Brainerd last winter under the aus
pices of the Nssrthern Minnesota De-
velopment Association was admitted
ly the largest and best exhibit of the
kind ever shown in Minnesota, not
emitting the exhibit at the State
Fair. 1t is believed that the Grand
Rapids exhibit will be even larger
than this, as 500 single exhibits are
anticipated by Otto l. Bergh, Su-
peritendent of ! the Government Ex-
perimental Farm, who is in charge
of this feature of the program.
The program for the coming con-
vention is replete with practical dis
cussions on all-important subjects of
keen interest to every resident of
Northern Minnesota and the attend
ance is expected to be the largest in
the history of the organization. Sec
rotary Lincoln is giving the conven-
ton wide publicity and the press of
the country, appreciating the i'm
portance of this convention to the re-
construction period to follow the war
is cooperating in splendid shape.
Included in the program are the fol-
lowing subjects to be discussed by
men we'll posted in each:
"Aid for Returned Soldiers" by
Chas. P. Craig, Duluth; "The Pre-
vention of Forest Fires in Northern
Minnesota" by A. P. Silliman, of
Hibbing; "Sheep for Northern Min
nesota" Roger M. Andrews, Menom-
inee Michigan, Publisher of Glover
Land. Hon. Fred d. Sherman of the
State immigration Bureau, will give
an interesting paper on the work of
his department in presenting the pos
sibilities of Northern Minnesota to
prospective settlers in this and other
states.
A report on the investigation of
the overflow of hay lands in the
Leech Lake Reservoir will be made
by S. D. Patrick of Deer River and a
review Of the history, past and pres
ent of the Northern Minnesota De-
velopment Association is to be made
by Hon. P. H. McGary of Walker,
who has been powerful influence in
the work of the association since its
organization. Plans for the future
will be discussed and will include an
extensive advertising campaign to be
outlined by the secretary and con-
sidered by special committee to be
appointed for that purpose.
There are many other good things
on the program and the committee
feels that it has outlined material for
the most successful meeting In the
history of the organization.

food fish are going to waste in this
country every year. This val
liable food product should be utilized

we need hundred other things for

by several present and all tended to-

Brown were named to take charge
of this part of the work. This COM
mittee will get together at once and
plan receptions and also will take
charge of the Community Welfare
work.
A lot of the things the boys had in
the service will be missing and the
biggest void will be the want of a
place to meet and spend the evenings.
In another column will be found a
suggestion for a memorial building
for this defect. In the meantime,
before this could be accomplished
some provisions must be made to fur
nish the boys something to take the
place of the association huts they en-
joyed in the service. The teaching
and training received in the army
camps and over there, has been such
as to make better men of all the boys.
To come back and have this influence
entirely missing will be a crime
Something must be provided, not
only for the returning boys, but fo1
the boys and girls growing up. 1t is
up to the people and the authorities
here to provide just such places
The committee will begin active work
at once towards that end.
The matter of next seasons ad.
| vertising was left to a committee
composed of Peter Schaefer, L. M
Brownell and H. j. Merdink.

BACK TO SCHOOL.
CHILD WELFARE COMMITTEES
BEGIN BACK TO SCHOOL"
MOVE.

In the Back-to-School Drive the
Child Welfare Comittees are asked
first of all to make an effort to return
to school those girls and boys who
left school in June and who failed to
return after vacation. Many Of
of these children took out employ
ment certificates or vacation permits,
intending to work only through the
summer and to return to school in the
fall but the high wages have been An
inducement for them to remain at
work. With little encouragement,
these children might be persuaded to
continue their education.
At all times, economic necessity
causes child labor. At the present
time other causes are added to this.
Wages are higher; children between
Ia and 16 in particular are likely to
be tempted from school to the. shop.
A false notion of patriotism II
prompting some employers to urge
children to go to work and some pa
rents to sanction their going.
First in point of time amongst
nations, the United States announced
the principle of the universal and
free school and first also, it put the
principle into practice. Time has
proved the wisdom of the tradition.
The many illiterates who appeared
with the draft have been serious
handicap, giving new proof that .
successful democracy must be based
on literacy. On the other hand, re-
cent studies all show that to send the
child to wage work instead Of to
school is not only bad policy but il
bad business. Because child labor
saps the elasticity of childhood, it
thereby deteriorates the quality Of
the manhood and womanhood of the
Nation; because it uses up labor
power and thus reduces the number
of skilled workers, it limits the
national output. The Bureau of Ed
ucation has by every channel Of pub
licity shown the true patriotism Of
keeping our children at school. The
President of the United States has
said that "No boy or girl shall have
less opportunity for education be-
cause of the war;" Thinking men
and women agree therefore that
every child should be at school until
it is at least moderately prepared in
body and mind for the tasks and pur.
poses of life.

The list of names on the Eastern
Vermiion War Work Fund fails to
show the names of several citizens of
this city. These men are slackers of
the cheapest kind. Several signed
the cards and then forgot to pay up.
These are worse than the others. The
executive committee is considering
the ACCESSIBILITY of printing the names
of those who are trailing along on the
loyalty of their neighbors and fell
low citizens. These with the Liberty
bond slackers should be bulletined in
big black letters so that the boys who
are coming back can see who their
friends were at home.
