FOR COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT

Several times the last few days
persons have asked me regarding the
qualifications of Miss June Emry for
the office of county superintendent
of schools. In my judgment she is
an exceptionally well qualified wom-
an for the place. In fact, 1 do not
know, in all my acquaintance, ev-
erything considered, a better quail
fled person for the office.
She has had a splendid scholastic
training and a great deal of success
full experience.
She is an expert in office work,
and a good executive.
She has good judgment, and is
willing to work.
She stands high in the teaching
profession in South Dakota, and Is
one of the leading educators of the
state.
She is a student of education and
is abreast of the times in school prob
lens.
She has been very successful as
principal of our high school and has
proven her worth to the people of
Madison.
The office Of county superintend-
ent of schools is the most important
educational position in the county.
We need a like Miss Emry
to supervise and direct our schools.
Respectfully submitted,
IS. T. May,
Superintendent City Schools.

WATCH FOR LOANS TO HUNS
American Defense Society to Make
Public Names Of Banks Which
May Aid Teutons.

New York.-A resolution passed by
the national boycott committee of the
American Defense society makes in
discriminate lending by American
banks to Germany a more or less
hazardous business from a financial
point Of view. 1t is contended by the
society that American depositOrs have
a right to be notified in advance of
any intention on the part of the banks
to lend their money to build up Ger
man countries, and it holds itself
ready to inform the depOsitOrs If
their money is so used without their
consent.
"The principle involved is quite
clear" said Richard NJ. Hurd, chair.
man of the national boycott commit
tee. "It is analogous to the bill just
introduced by Senator Lodge, provid-
ing that the public should be Informed
Of all stores dealing in German goods

over their doors, Dealer in German

Americans have not forgotten the

minion, which Germany's enforced
surrender has in nOwise altered

tries toward building up Germany

FALL OF STATUE
ENDS HUN LUCK
Quaint Legend of Albert MadOn-
ma, Distorted by Germans,
Has Sequel.
TRICK OF PARISH PRIEST
When Virgin Of Albert Was Dethroned
the Huns From Being TrucuIent
conquerors Were Forced to
Knees in Submission.

LOndOn.-All the world knows the
story of the Madonna which was dis
lodged by German shell fire from its
perch on the tower of the parish
church at Albert during the first mad
rush of the Huns through France in
1914. The statue did not fall, nor was
it greatly damaged, but the base was
so shattered that it hung precariOusly
over the main road from Amiens to
Bapaume, which passes under the
very walls of the beautiful old church.
For some reason, when the red tide OF
war swept westward through Albert,
the Hun did not complete the destruc-
ton of the tower, and the statue still
maintained its strange pOise after the
invaders had been rolled back at the
battle of the Marne.
Days of Great Hope.
Those were the days of great hope.
France was fighting with skill and de-
termination. Britain was steadily in
creasing her small but wonderful
army, and the Russians were adyanc-
ing almost at a gallOp through East
Prussia. In fact, there were optimists
who thought Germany would sue for
peace before Christmas,
1914I Some hint of the trend of pOpu-
lar thought was given by the quaint
cOnceit which grew up in the hearts of
the people, namely, that when the Vir-
gin of Albert fell Gas fall she must, in
the opinion of all who saw the statue)
the war would end in a victory for
France and her allies. But the war
did not end, nor did the statue fall,
and the opposing armies settled down
to nearly four years Of trench war
fare, with the odds greatly in favor
of the Hun, and success constantly at
tending his efforts and those Of his ILL
Omened helpers, the Turks.
The Germans, who certainly never
miss a point in their efforts to under
mine their opponents morale, seized
on the legend. Varying it to suit their
purpose they spread the story far and
wide that when the statue fell France
would lose the war. Now, the town Of
Albert possesses a most patriotic and
efficient parish priest. No sooner did
the Hun version of the story reach
his ears than he sought out a skilled
blacksmith. The two ascended the
half-ruined tower. surveyed the broken
base, and so braced and riyeted the
statue to its recumbent position that
fall it could not until the tower itself
gave way.

MR.. HOoVER's MESSAGE TO
THE GIRLS AND BOYS
OF AMERICA.

Now that the terrible war is
over you must be glad that you
helped to win it by saving food
for our soldiers and our unhappy
friends across the sea. But our
work of feeding hungry people is
now to be greater than it has ever
been. Many millions OF people
have been made free by our vic
tory, but they are in the greatest
danger OF death from starvation.
They look to America for food
until the next harvest.
We must go on saving and shar-
ing with them as faithfully as
ever. And, of course, you will
want to do your part as you have
been doing. We have a greater
task than any of us can imagine
in saving the world from famine,
but we can do it If each of us does
all he can. am counting upon
you. Faithfully yours,

WOMAN BOSSES MINE
Heads Corporation Controlled En-
tireIy by Her Sex.
Operates Garnet Mine in Alaska and
Lead, Zinc and Silver Mines
in Arizona.

New YOrk.-FrOm the far West
there now comes to US the lady miner,
Miss Anna Durkee, organizer and con-
trolling element of a S1,000,0OO cor
poratiOn run entirely by women. Miss
Durkee operates a garnet mine in
southern Alaska and lead, zinc and sill
yer mines in Arizona. She is the lar
gest individual mine owner in the Oat-
man district of Arizona, and the most
widely known woman In the mining
world.
It was while she was in Alaska seven
years ago, investigating a proposition
in copper, that Miss Durkee first be-
came interested in a garnet mine, was
given an option on it and finally took
it over in the name of a corporation
which had a board Of 10 women direc-
tors.
At the beginning the mine did not
seem to amount to a great deal, but
as Miss Durkee began to develop the
first claim with which the corporation
started, veins were discovered opening
out in every direction, and as the work
continued the amazing fact dawned
that the entire mountain was a gigan-
tic mine of the beautiful crystals, with
ledges of garnets extending from the
sea level toIa distance of $500 feet
up the mountain side.
But the greatest value of the deposit
consists in a by-prOduct of garnet
waste, discovered by Miss Durkee,
who passed two years in a chemical
laboratory working it out. She had
observed that garnets when milled did
not fuse with iron or brass, and follow
ing this up, she discovered a new use
for the waste garnet, of which there
were hundreds of thousands of tons.
Ground to a certain mesh and put
through a secret process the waste gar
net makes a separating powder valu-
able in foundry work." she stated.
The garnets of Miss Durkee's mine
are of the finest variety, almandines.
Because Of their beauty and hardness,
biologists have given them the name
of precious garnets."
