Mr.. Mann said that fully 80 per
cent Of the small town merchants in
the Northwest do not advertise and
that no program of constructive adj
vertising direct to the consumer has
as yet been undertaken by any manu-
facturer or jobber in the country. He
declared that unless jobbers and
manufacturers would get together and
develop some plan to- assist the small
retail merchant in the disposal OF
goods through the direct-to-the-con-
sumner advertising, all small town,
merchants in the Northwest would be
forced out of business by the growing
encroachments of the mail order bust
ness.

CENTRAL MINNESOTA BUT
TERMAKERS HAVE FINE CON-
yENTION AT LITTLE FALLS

After a very successful two-days'
session, the convention of the Central
Minnesota Dairymen and Buttermak-
ers' association, came to a close
Wednesday evening, says the Little
Falls Herald. There were 80 of the
members in attendance. Every
number on the program was given and
a few topics Were added.
The convention proper opened Tues
day evening at the High school audi
forum.
In the absence of Mayor Bergheim
from the city, City Attorney Cameron
: gave the address of welcome.
After the reports of the officials
were given, the butter that had been
entered in competition was auctioned
off, it bringing 40 cents pound. This
feature was disappointing as there
were few present aside from the but
termakers.
At the Wednesday afternoon session
Hon. James Sorenson, Minnesota
Dairy Commissioner, gave an address
touching on the different phases OF the
industry, and the need of adequate
laws to maintain quality of the pro-
duct. The greatest drawback to the
industry is to produce butter of poor
material, which effects the standard
of all. Many fine talks were made
by others, all touching on the need
of cooperation.
The same officers as last years were
reelected. They are Geo. Bates,
Meier Grove, president; L. M. Jacobs,
Sank Centre, secretary; H. B. Otto,
Melrose, treasurer.
In the butter scoring contest Tues
day afternoon, George Momholtz of
Georgeville was first, with a score OF
95k; G. N. Baltes of Meier Grove
was second with 81 per cent and John
M. Smith of Litchfeld was third with
a score of "a ga. The prizes given by
different firms with whom the butter
makers do business was for first, a
gold watch; second, a leather travel
ing bag; third, silver set.
N. Oscar Nilsson o. A. Strand and
Alfred Mattson local buttermakers
scored SO and 931s, and 81 respec-
Is lively.
There were also four complimentary
scores, for butter entered by men not
belonging to the association.

SHORT SELLING RENEWED

~ Movements Of prices during curb trad
ing were yesterday mixed. but during
the greater part OF the session a weak
tone was in evidence. due to renewed
short selling. Several strong issues
developed in the Industrial list. due to
pool operations, and 1t was in those
stocks in which most heavy activity was
concentrated. Again 1t was chiefly q
traders affair.
There was increased activity In
vanadium Steel, which rallied after de-
clining more than a point. and In ".
vivaudou, which, after falling to q new
low with loss Of three points. recovered
most Of the decline. United Retail
Candy lost almost two points, while
General Asphalt lost four, but rallied
before the close. Carbo-Hydrogen early
moved to q new high on buying for
Pittsburg interests.
One OF the main features of the trad
ing was the introduction to the market
OF United Picture Production stock,
which is the first OF its kind since in
PRODUCTION Of Famous Players. Lasky.
The new concern has q contract with
the United Picture Theatres of America,
vhich comprises more than 400 mo-
ton picture houses in the country. Under
II the new company is guaranteed the
fun cost Of every production. plus 20
per cent profits within six months
Changes In the Independent oils were
mixed and generally confined to less
than a point. Sinclair issues declined

Small Colleges Form
States Second Line of
Educational Defence

not approach an answer to these in
ical fact that the privately endowed
colleges are the mother schools of the
educational system in America More
over, the privately endowed colleges
have been especially developed in ord
er to stress Christian education. They
are not in competition with state-sup-
ported schools, but they are very pos
tive cooperating agents with the
state-supported institutions.
BY reason of their history and their
charters, they are effectively organ
lied to strengthen the state-supported
schools, which might otherwise be
forced to stress unduly material edu-
cation. Privately endowed colleges
exist for the purpose Of cooperating
in moral and religious training. 1t is
fundamentally important that state
supported schools have the education-
al and spiritual backing which the pri-
vately endowed colleges have always
supplied, and which they must offer in
an increasing degree If our state
schools are to BE protected from an
increasing demand for material educa-
ton.
1t is necessary for the churches to
foster both the publicly supported and
the privately endowed educational &C
tivities in Wisconsin. They can do
no less than to use their best influence
to awaken public consciousness to the
important service rendered by each of
these divisions. 1t should be clearly
understood also that vigorous effort
to awaken public consciousness to the
mission of Christian education is NO
disloyalty to state-supported schools.

STUDENTS EARN OWN WAY
NO Reason Why Healthy, Ambitious
Wisconsin Boy or Girl Should
Not Go to College.

Few colleges in the United States
have such large percentages of stu
dents earning their way through
school as have the Wisconsin colleges.
For example, nearly 80 per cent of
the students at Northland College are
either totally or partly dependent upon
their own resources. AT Beloit Col
lege nearly 20 per cent of the students
earn part of their expenses. At Car
roll College nearly so per cent of the
students make their own way. At Rip
on College 40 per cent students are de-
pendent upon themselves.
Because of the opportunities for self
help in the college towns of Wiscon-
sin, there is really little reason why
any healthy young man or woman liv-
ing in Wisconsin should not go to COL
lege.
The Wisconsin Colleges Associated
are today acquainting the people of
Wisconsin with the functions, oppor-
tunities, problems and needs of the
small college.
