PARISH WAR RECORD
DIRECTOR.

On Thursday Mr.. John R. Tay-
lor was commissioned by Cover
nor Pleasant as War Record Dl-
rector for the Parish Of Iberia un-
der the supervision Of the Parish
Council of Defense. 1t is Mr..
Tsylor's intention to appoint III
each Ward a committee with a
chairman so as to carry on this
future historical work in an ef-
ficient and painstaking manner.
The value of a record of this kind
will increase with the years. The
present value lies in the fact that
the men who have been in service
and their parents are pleased that
the State Council have undertak-
en- this work. In no other way
could we be able to bring back
to our State the record of the men
who served in the fight for lib
erty. An instruction sheet will
be furnished to the Ward chair
men in the very near future. Mr..
Taylor will procure the data just
as fast as it can be obtained with
the assistance of Ward chairmen.

IN MEMORIAM.
Aurora Lodge, No. 1913, F. & A. M

New Iberia, La. April Il, .'19.
Once more has Death invaded
the tiled recesses Of our Lodge,
and called to the Celestial lodge
above Brother Thomas Monk.
who for many years has been an
upright man and Mason.
Brother Monk, being a practical
builder and skilled in that art,
the teachings Of Masonry espec-
tally appealed to him, and he al
ways acted on the square with all
men.
His reputation for honesty and
ability in his work. extended far
and wide. Not only in our own
Parish. but in every part of South
Louisiana. are found monuments
Of his skill as an architect and
builder.
Much of his time was given to
reading and study not only of
works pertaining to his art, but OF
both past and present literature,
thereby storing his mind with
gems Of thoughts, which embel-
lished his life and conversation.
A devoted husband and father,
he gave all that was best in his
life to his family and in the home
circle is q void, that can never be
filed.
We feel that not only the fra
ternity has experienced q great
loss in the death Of Brother Monk.
but also the commu y, tie
trade and occupation which he
honored by his intelligence and
sterling worth.
Therefore be it resolved, that
to his family, we. the members Of
Aurora Lodge No. 1913. F. & a.
M. extend our sincerest sympathy,
and assure them that our hearts
go forth to them in this, their
deep affection.
Be it further resolved, that a
copy Of these resolutions be sent
to his family, and that they he
published in the local press.
And be it further resolved that
q page of.the minute book OF
Aurora Lodge 1873. be set aside to
the memory Of our deceased
Brother. and that q copy OF these
resolutions be inscribed thereon.

These nan have undertaken

These men have undertaken to
reach San Francisco by February, on
a wager of $1,000. The conditions
of the trip are that they were to leave
Minneapolis Sunday, August %, with
out money, and that they were to
make their way across country on
foot, unless asked to ride. They may
not ask for a ride.
The principal object of the trip is
to advertise and boost the American
Legion, the great organization being
formed Of service men. They wear
their respective uniforms, and ban
ner which reads Minneapolis to San
Francisco. Boosting the American
Legion"
They make their way by singing.
For their first dinner, Sunday, they
were fortunate in striking a picnic
party on the shores of Lake Mime
tonka. Their first right out was
spent in barn near Waconia.

School Treatment
of Social Problems

The schools have been very de-
ficient in times past in their treatment
of social problems. One of the rea-
sons why the schools have not ven
tured to enter this field is undoubtedly
to be found in the attitude of conser-
vatives and the fear that teachers are
under offending boards of education
and others. The time has come when
there ought to be very clear and ex-
plicit assertion on the part of educa-
tional people that they will not be do
minated by such criticism as has been
presented. The schools of a demo-
cracy have a right to discuss demo-
cratic and popular matters. If the
school people of this country are not
aroused to an assertion of their indie
pendence in educational matters it is
difficult to understand how they can
claim in any large way to be leaders
of public opinion even for the coming
generation.-Ch III. Judd.

AND. CARNEGIE DIED RICH.
Did Not Carry Out His Purpose to Die
Poor. Many Times $5O, 100000.

Although Andrew Carnegie. steel
magnate and philanthropist, declared
during his life time that he expected
to give away his huge fortune and
Idle pauper," his estate to be dis
posed of by a will which will be filed
for probate next week was several
times $50,000000 it was learned from
an authoritative source.
1t was stated that will of approx
imately 4,500 words, drawn by Mr..
Carnegie himself, had been superce-
ded by a briefer document of 1000
words drawn by Elihu Root.
The decision of Mr.. Carnegie to re-
woke the original will on which he
had expended much time and thought
and which bequeathed large part of
his estate to his daughter, Margaret,
was said to have resulted from her
marriage to Ensign Roswell Miller
several months ago. Mr.. Carnegie
settled large "dot" on his daughter
at the time of her wedding and for
this reason is said to have found it
necessary to alter the provisions of
the will.

BUDGET SYSTEM ADOPTED.

The State Board of Education, Gre
ated by new law effective August
/, at meeting in the State Historical
Society building in st. Paul, instruct
ed the commissioner of education to
begin a study of the state and school
aid, adopted a budget system, APP
proved temporary estimates ard
heard reports Of department uirec-
tors.
The board approved the distrIbu-
ton of S96O,522 Of state aid To 239
approved high schools, s338,000 to
$50 approved graded schools and
S125, 900 to lO4 manual training de-
partments.
The state inspector Of the high
school buildings reported that war
conditions had reduced school building
operations almost one-half last year,
but nearly $4,000 900 was spent for
new buildings and school improve
ment. He added that 80 school build
ings will be erected II MINNESOTA this
wear. Other similar reports were
heard by the board Morgan Mes
senger.

PLEA FOR THE BOOKSTORE.

There is an article in the August
Atlantic on "The Welfare of the Book
Store" 1t tells us that the book
store, as we knew it 40 or 80 years
ago, is fast passing away. In proper
ton to population, the article says,
there are not half as many book
stores as there were fifty years ago.
Right after the war Poughkeepsie, of
10000 population. had three good
book stores. Today, with 10000 popu-
lation, she hasn't any book store.
Other cities are cited giving the same
state of facts, showing that the book
store as it once was, a place where
the selling of books constituted a
business, belongs to the past.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1919-09-03

Many reasons are assigned for this
disappearance, which may all be
Jumbled into one. namely, that they
didn't sell enough books to pay for
the store expense. 1t is a little strange
that this should be the case, for
book store in a town was always re-
garded as an honor and its support
an expression of the peoples intelli-
gence. There are many reasons as
signed for the chance, but we incline
to the simple one that the reading of
books has gone out Of fashion 1t has
taken to newspapers, cheap maya
zines and corner EDITORIALS. When the
good old book store comes back again
we will say the world is getting bet
ter.-Ohio State Journal.

Two pedestrians passed through
Redwood Wednesday on what is a
rather novel trip. The two young
men are j. v. Rogers, of Milwaukee,
Wis, who spent IA months overseas
in army service, and Edward j. Pet
ers, of Detroit, Michigan, who served
two years in the Navy. They spent
the day in Redwood Falls, taking din
ner with the returned soldiers at the

sickness and these attacks is. Of
course, still further to weaken n peo-

Another effect of the prevailing
nervousness is naturally to make peO-
pie far more irritable than usual; and
the physical weakness combined with
the overweight state of their nerves
also makes them disinclined for effort
or exertiOn. Religion, II Is significant,
seems to have lost all influence over
them. Not only have adults become
careless and Indifferent with regard to
morality. as Is proved by the grave in
creases of certain diseases. with which
the medical authorities no longer know

Again. the children often cannot be
made TO attend school. and the youths
cannot be induced to do any work. The
children play truant for days and
weeks together. and the youths leave
their work for any trivial reason or
none.
Children and young people are con-
stantly quarreling until they come to
blows; they have no respect for their
teachers. parents or elders; they insult
and abuse older persons and even spit
at them sometimes and threaten them
with violence. Thieving. however. 10

In Poland nervousness and nervous
