recognized leader of rural school
work in the state. l.. D. Aldrich

and for a number of years county
superintendent of the schools, will
give an illustrated lecture on schools
and conditions as he found tn m

has a collection of 100 photograph
plates taken during that time which
are very interesting. showing the
sci oil classes meetings farm build
ings, what is thot to be the first
threshing outfit in the county and
a picture Of the dam. The lecture
will be very interesting as it has
the personal touch and many Of the
older residents of the county will
know the scenes and incidents which
he will tell Of.
DR.. Fought has been interested in
the rural school system and it IS
mainly thru his efforts that the
Aberdeen normal has attained the
high degree of efficiency and stand
ing that it has. He a message that
will be we'll worth hearing.
1t is also decided to local a branch
school at Big Stone where a six
weeks summer session will be given
every summer. With the new rul-
ing that the teacher must spend a
certain length of time in a summer
or normal school a branch of the
state institution in the county

college have been investigating
farm labor problems and they re-
port that in the four counties under
Investigation the average working
day for farm women is from IL to

that on 81 per cent of the farms
water was carried to the kitchen an
average distance Of u feet. Only
SO per cent of the homes had wash
ing machines run by power and only
Is per cent Of the farmers wives
had modern irons. The striking
feature Of the report is that So per

house so that the work of the
women will be made as easy as
possible. Up to a few years ago
the farmers finances might not have
stood the strain of extra expenses
for such things out in the average
farm family there is now no excuse
for not having labor saving tools

that Ma had better spend her ener-

that post-dated checks were good

cision on the fact that there was
no evidence that the checks we're

Now along comes a man with no

FOCH READY TO ACT IF HUNS
REFUSE TO SIGN THE TREATY

Paris.-The fact that Marshal Foch
and the allied commanders have
agreed upon the military and naval
steps which will be taken in the event
the Germans refuse to sign the treaty
has made good impression upon the
country and the tendencies which are
becoming daily manifest in favor OF
firm alliance, at any rate, until the
peace terms have been executed. ara
greeted with great satisfaction.
The position OF America in a mat
ter OF this sort Is specially delicate.
but there seems to be some ground for
thinking President Wilson will not be
unfavorable to some form OF alliance
until the league Of nations is got in
working order. Rightly or wrongly,
the impression has been encouraged
that only the financial clauses OF the
peace treaty are open to discussion by
the Germans and that this discussion
would be limited. The Germans, it
was believed. would be heard as to
the best means OF enabling them to
carry out the financial obligations
placed upon them by the treaty. It is
clear from the German attitude that
the enemy counts still upon inter-al.
