The teachers in the Fargo schools
are compelled to supervise the play

be a fine thing for the children of
Steele county if all school boards in
the county insisted on their teachers
doing likewise.

THE MODERN woMAN's CAREER

Although the future will see great
numbers Of women permanently en-
gagged in business and the profes-
sions, millions of others will find
that the care of their homes takes
their entire energy. The changes
of modern liferhave not provided any
escape from this responsibility.
OF course there have always been
great number of women who have
continued to work in mills and fac
tories after marriage. In many cases
their husbands could not support the
family alone. Children have often
suffered from this arrangement. Many
have run wild in the street because
there was no one at home to look af-
ter them and there by become insub-
ordinate and law breaking.
Modern conditions are likely to
grow more favorable to the women
of these homes. The general advance
in wages is enabling a great many
men to. support families in fair de-
gree of comfort who could never do
so before. Children are contributing
more to family support, and enabling
the. mother of the large family to
stick by her job in the keeping of the
home.e.
So the tendencies OF modern life
work in the opposite: direction for
different types of women. Those of
education and culture and exception
al efficiency, will plan for better pre-
paration for professions and bust
ness.
But for many working women,
modern life will keep them more
closely in their homes than ever be-
fore: Theif growing families give
ample scope to their effort, and fur
nish them all the career they need or
desire. The best thing the commun.
ity can do for them is to popularize
domestic science instruction. Every
young girl should be taught to help
her mother in the family cares. Ev-
cry mother who wishes to learn the
best modern methods of home keep
ing, should find abundant chance in
lectures and demonstrations in her
own neighborhood.

THANKSGIVING DAY

In the traditional observance OF
Thanksgiving, the old timers used to
go to church. 1t was fitting and ap-
propriate. The normal minded per-
son must feel that in spite Of all the
sorrow in the world, the worst Of
which is due to human sin and ignor-
ance, there is heart of love in the
universe thatoffers its guidance and
protection and help. To OFFER direct
thanks to God for this care and for
the many. blessings of daily life.
seems the natural thing which no one
should neglect. j!
In the rush and hurry of modern
life. the church service is not 90
much in fashion as formerly, though
it is likely to become so again some
time. But in spite Of all unlovely as-
poets, and neglect Of the deepest
meanings, there is still much dne
sentiment left in the old holiday.
1t brings together many widely
separated families; people who trav-
ell long distances and go to much ex-
pense to be together Just few hours
again. They hate to be absent ct .
feast that traditionally has assembled
all the family group:
;: Innumerable fathers and mothers
are made glad as the boys and girls
come trooplng back, bringing new
life and enthusiasm. The home
comers find inspiration in the pill
grimage, and remember once more
what they owe to parental care, and
are moved to be true to the ideals
learned in childhood.
Thanksgiving Day promotes many
acts of kindly charity. These have .
value far beyond the food provided
by any holiday dinner. They give
struggling people new sense of hope
and promote courage among the
downcast.
So let everyone make Thanksgiving
Day real feast of remembrance Of
all that is fine in ones past life, and
of charity to all who find life's strug-
gle difficult.

CHURCHES TO BE RESTORED

A committee has been appointed to inagurate cam
pagn in this country for funds to aid in the restoration
of wrecked churches in France and Belgium The project
is under churchy supervision and the name of Henry
Van Dyke as associate chairman of the committee is
guarantee of the good faith and of the worth of the u-
dertaking.
It is hoped to raise over $3OOO00O. 1t should be a
cause appealing to Americans whether they are church
goers or not.
1t will be years. of course before the marvellous crea-
lions Of stone which were the big cahedras can be re-
stored and in spite Of cunning workmanship it may be
impossible ever to replace of the beauty which had
lasted for ages only to be obterated by Prussian mill
tarism.
The restoration funds will be devoted not only to
large building but to the little honey churches in small
towns 1t is safe to say that way which American
friendship and kindness can be shown will be more ap-
precated for the people concerned are Cody folk and
they need all the comfort which their religion can bring
them as they set about their work of reconstruction
