SCHOOL NOTES

The entire community will he
shocked to learn of the sudden death
of Mrs. English, the noted lecturer
who only recently completed her SER
les of lectures here.
News of the sudden death of Mrs.
English came last week from Miss
Dorothy English, who at the time
was confined to her bed at Grand
Forks. To all who heard Mrs. Eng
lish, and that will mean almost the
whole community, in her splendid and
vital talks, her loss will be felt as If
it were personal one. Her work
was of such an unusual us we'll as
Of such vital character that her loss
will mean a loss to the world at large.
Mrs. English at the time Of her visit
here seemed in the very best of health
and it scenes too bad that her Won
derful work should be so suddenly
interrupted. However, Mrs. English
will live after her. It shall not have
been in vain. The whole community
joins in extending heartfelt sympathy
to the bereaved children and husband
All those who have enjoyed the
previous meetings, as we'll as those
who have been unable to attend
heretofore, will be pleased to learn
that at the next meeting of the Teach
ers-Parents' Association, Miss Jensen,
the we'll known Agricultural College
expert, will speak.
Great credit is due our executive
committee for the splendid programs
that they have so far arranged, and
we know that the present program
will be Of the high order that has
been maintained heretofore. All are
cordially urged to come. The meet
ing will be in the afternoon at 1880
P. NJ, on next Monday afternoon,
March 31st. This meeting is called
as special meeting as it was hard to
get Miss Jensen to come as she must
leave on the down train. We hope
all will make especial effort to be
present.

ANNOUNCEMENT

We wish to announce to the people
Of Hope and vicinity thereof that we
have purchased the plant, stock and
good will of the E. w. Hanson Lum-
Der yard at Hope. In view of the fact
that our company has operated a re-
tail lumber yard at Cooperstown for
the past thirty-flve years, or more,
we do not think we will need a great
deal of introduction to the people of
Hope. for most of them are personally
acquainted with the members of our
firm and our methods of doing busi-
ness.
We have ordered several carloads
of first class material and it will be
our aim to at all times carry COM
plete stock at Hope, sufficient to meet
the requirements Of the trade. Our
prices will be right and we will guar
antee our stock to be satisfactory.
Should there be any OCCASION for COM
plant at any time we will be glad to
make an adjustment which is entirely
satisfactory.
Mr.. P. N. Ramstad, an experienced
lumberman, has arrived at Hope and
has taken charge of the management
of the yard and will be glad to make
the acquaintance of the people of
Hope and vicinity
We hope to so conduct our business
as to merit the patronage of all the
good people who were customers of

sonal friend OF the members of our

COST OF CONSTRUCTION
Continued from page one)

new building after deducting a reas-
enable sinking fund allowance, no one
should hesitate to build Or to lend
money for building.
Although construction costs are
higher now than in 1918, the wage
scales in the building industry have
not advanced as rapidly as has the
cost of living, while building material
prices are not as high as are general
commodity prices. Wage increases in
the construction industry, speaking
generally Jagged behind because that
industry was utilized to only small
degree in war production. The level
at which the cost of construction
stands today has been pushed up only
slightly by temporary war conditions.
1t has been fixed mainly by conditions
that can not be materially changed
for years to comedy the tremendous
expansion of money and credit.
1t is evident that the business men
of the central west are waking up to
the fact that those who start building
early this spring are not making any
mistake in the matter of costs. Of the
total of over $46,000,000 for the week
ending February %, 81 1-2 per cent
was private construction, 8 per cent
state and municipal work and a frac-
ton of 1 per cent government con-
struction.
Private individuals and corporations
are responsible for most of the build
ing activity in that section of the
country east of the Missouri river and
north of the Ohio, according to a state
ment just issued by the division of
public works and construction develop
ment of the U. S. department of la
Dor.
1t takes time for private building to
get under way, and still longer for
public works to get started in volume.
However, the reports received from
state, county and municipal officials
justify the belief that an exceptional
amount of public construction will be
undertaken this year.
A judicious investment in the cree
ton of new building does not depend
solely on the cost of construction. 1t
may well happen that the man who
buys lot today and builds on it
house the cost of which is not greatly
out Of proportion to the cost of the
land will be better off a year from

window at the price of house and
lot. These are parts of the long ar
raw of lavishness in this extravagan-
"a of expenditure.
People seem crazed with the notion
that any extravagant thing, any prod
igal purchase, any figure of wage,
any measure of profit is obtainable.
Do you realize what havoc habits
of unthrift are working in America ?
In Portland in 1918, with an increase
Of $4,000 in population, we built 266
dwelling houses. We bought $500 au-
tomobiles. We spent something over
half million for houses; more than
ten million for automobiles. The
mortgage Indebtedness placed on
homes for the purchase of automobiles
was $7,OOO,o0O.
Listen: Sixty-siv out Of every hum
dred persons who die in the United
States leave no estate whatever, and
of the remaining thirty-four only nine
leave estates larger than $4,000. Al
the age of IS, ninety-seven out of
every hundred person in America are
partially or wholly dependent upon
relatives, friends or the public for
their daily bread, for their clothing
and for a roof under which to sleep
Ninety-eig ght per cent of the American
people are living from day to day OF
their wages, and loss of employment
would mean pauperism for all but two
per cent.
Fewer than 100000 American
families own their own homes, q
The daily morning oasis., 1919-12-02

0Co,C00 are carrying mortgages, and
II 100000 are renters. Every seven
years, one-third of the population of
the ciey of New York applies for
charity. One person in every ten who
dies in our large cities is buried in a
pauper's grave.
These figures are from government
statistics. They are terrifying story
of poverty. Surgeon General Gorgas,
who made the Canal Zone habitable,
said in a public address: physicians
have located the great cause for gen.
eral ill health in poverty" Poverty
is here directly attributable by an
eminent authority to the great Ameri-
can habit of unthrift.
Poverty means dirt Cleanliness is
luxury. 1t demands leisure, peace
Of mind, hot water, soap, bath tub
and good plumbing The very poor
cannot be clean, and filth and dirt
mean ill health, consumption and a
pauper's grave.
Teach the people thrift. Teach
them to lay aside a part of their
savings. Teach them to have a
thought of the morrow. Teach them
to>eschew So hats, $50 shoes and 5000
coats off wages that cannot warrant
these things.
Teach them not to be spendthrifts
and wasters for the ultimate lot of
he spendthrift and the waster is to
be at 65 years of age one of that
81 out of every 100, in part or in
whole, dependent upon kindred,
friends or the public for the bread
they eat, for the clothing they wear,
for the roof under which they find
shelter. Poverty is ignorance, and
Ignorance is poverty. They are twin
calamities. They mean poverty handed
down from father to son. Combined
they mean crime and criminality. Go
to the penitentiaries and there study
the inmates. There you will find the
havoc that ignorance and poverty
work upon mankind.
Poverty peoples the pauper asylums
the poor houses, the insane asylums,
he houses of correction, the reform
ltories and other places of public de-
tention.
More than 8,5OO,OO0 people, over
'en years of age, in America cannot
cad the daily newspaper. There is
till with us the astounding 24.6 per
'ent of American drafted men in the
late war who were illiterate There
is the climax in the terrifying story
of the illiterate young men between
81 and 81 all directly attributable to
the destructive habit of non-thrift in
America.
