JAMESTOWN GETS
NORMAL'S SCALP

The Jamestown basket ball team ac-
companied by a couple of hundred
rooters arrived in the city about 7:5D
last night on a special train. They
came with the avowed intention Of
hanging the scalp Of the Normal
school team on their belt, and they got
it. The Jamestown College team is a
good one and they played well togeth-
er which accounts for the victory. We
are not saying that the jamestown
bunch can do that again for we be-
lieve that the Normal school team
with a little more practice in team
work will be able to reverse the de-
cision in some future game. 1t was a
fast game from start to finish and the
excitement on both sides was great.
1t was stand-off on the yell propo-
sition and the jamestown bunch more
than found it's match when it came
down to the yell proposition. There
was an indication at the start on the
part of one or two of tie jamestown
players to be rough but that was
squelched Immediately and from that
on the game was all right. The score
was 81 to 25 in favor of the visitors.
The star players for the home team
were Cook and Sad, for jamestown it
was hard to say who were the stars,
as all of them played great game.
The jamestown bunch brought band
along with them which helped to liven
things up.

CIVIL SERVICE
JOBS FOR THE BOYS

Washington, Feb. 4.-The United
States civil service commission is per-
fecting arrangements whereby men
who are about to be discharged from
the army and navy may receive first
hand information concerning oppor-
tunities for the employment in the
federal civil service The commission
has received authority from the Sec
retary of war and the secretary of the
navy to appoint it's representatives at
all establishments where enlisted men
are assembled in considerable num-
bers. These representatives are now
being appointed. They will be prepar-
ed to inform the men fully concerning
positions which are open, to supply
them with application blanks, to as
sist them, if necessary, with the exc
cution of their applications and to ad-
wise them relative to civil service mat
ters generally. 1t is the plan of the
civil service commission to entrust
this work to educational directors of
welfare organizations already operat-
ing at the camps, cantonments, etc.
The representatives Of the commission
who are appointed from the personnel
of these welfare organizations will
have the benefit of the advice and as
sistance of the commissions local
boards of examiners at nearby cities,
in addition to the instructions receiv-
ed from the commission.

SAYS The LEAGUE
WILL DISINTECRATE

Former Justice Andrew A. Bruce
of the supreme court of North Dako-
ia, one Of the principal speakers at
the mid-winter banquet of the Illinois
State Bar association tonight, said he
did not believe the. Nonpartisan
League would endure. Judge Bruce
who spoke on Government by Law
as Opposed to Government by Man" ["
discussed the agrarian movement in
his own state revealing itself in the
Nonpartisan League.
Though many of the ideas of the
League will remain in our permanent
law" said Judge Bruce, "the organi-
zation itself must sooner or later fall
to pieces for the simple reason there
are no points of common interest be-
tween the farmer and the Socialist
and the farmer and the laboring man,
and these today must be united"

REDUCING THE
PRICE OF FOODS

High prices for food tend to create
high prices on everything else. The
cost Of producing any article is largely
determined by the cost of subsistence
of the workers that create it. When
food prices are high, the ultimate re-
suit is to check consumption on the
part of large classes of people who
have not had corresponding advances
in wages. Export trade is restricted,
construction work held up, business
suffers, and unemployment results. So
to relieve the present unparalleled
high cost Of living, the first thing to
do is to produce reasonable food
prices.
Some people think government price
fixing will do it. 1t may help in ex-
treme cases. Yet in the long run you
can't beat the law of supply and de-
mand. The supply is at. prese~ oin-
sufficient for the demand, aggra ed
as this and will be by the disorA s.
zation of European industry. n
The farmers interests must be CO
sidered. In the past the small farm
ers profit did not fairly compensate
him for his effort and investment. If
he is not able to secure fair return
people will not stay on the farms. So
either production must be made more
economical on the present aggregate
of product, or a greater product must
be turned out on the present level of
expense.
It will take the best scientific and
organizing ability in the country to
solve this problem The ordinary OBJ
server however can see many re-
spects in which the work of food pro-
duction is not efficiently organized.
The past fifty years have seen
complete revolution in most lines of
industry. Labor saving machinery,
systematic organization of great units
of production, technical education for
managers, training of workers in
scientific methods, efficiency systems,
these have kept down the cost Of fac
tory production Labor is paid a
great deal more than formerly, but in
many cases production costs less than
it did so years ago.
Can these modern efficiency meth
DDS be applied to the business of food
production? A leading agricultural
authority said the other day, that if
the farmer could have the same ac-
cess to the markets for capital and la
Dor that other industries have, the
production of food in this country
could be increased four times. Even
half of that result would enormously
improve living conditions. A little
series of editorials to follow will en-
deavor to suggest how this could be
done.

PROBLEMS FOR OUR
VALLEY CITY PEOPLE

Our boys are coming home from
the war and they will have new ideas;
the old home town will not be to them
just what it was before they went
away. We must face this great
problem. "How to Conserve the Sol
dier Boys for our Community"
To expect them to be satisfied after
having seen the lights and sights of
the great cities is a most dangerous
policy to follow. There will of course
be a warm welcome but will that be
sufficient?
The job on hand will be to hold
them as permanent residents. To ac-
complish this we must meet them
with large civic plans, plans of the
rehabilitation of their home town,
new buildings, e. g., Office, factory,
public, residential, city landscape
plan for city twice our size and this
must be explained to them by some
influential body Of citizens. Who
shall be this influential body of citi-
zens to lead the home coming soldiers
boys to the top of the mountain to
view Canaan land. The Greatest Com
mercial Club Possible to Organize. It
must be so powerful, SO efficient there
will be no doubt in the minds of the
boys who have witnessed the power
of army organization that it can and
will be accomplished, The soldier
has learned the lesson never to be for
gotten that organization is the game
to win with and he will want to go
WHERE THE GAME is PLAYED
TO WIN.
Are the people Of Valley City going
to lay down on the job and let the old
town remain the old town and run
chance of losing our boys, or, are you
willing to get into the game and
make our old town THE GET THERE
TOWN, something doing for all of
the boys and aid them to stay with us
satisfied and happy boys. Part of
this work is your work, if the COM
munity fails it will be because you
and l have failed, we have failed to
do our part. Are you willing to do
your part, if so do it now.

us showed themselves made of such
stuff as taught us new wonder for
the land that could breed them. There
were some of US who had oset forth
from our own front gate and journey
all the way to the Marne to discover
America.
We of this generation had come to
take our country for granted. We
had come to take our liberty as mat
ter of course, like the air we breathed
and the unfailing sun. It was not so
with the generation that wrung the
first homesteads from the wilderness.
It was not so with the generation that
conceived the ationin liberty and
dedicated it to the proposition that all
men are created quail. 1t was not so
with the generation that fought a civil
war to prove whether that nation, or
any nation, so conceived and so dedi-
Gated could long endure. But we've
of the easy spring of 1917-were like
the idle sons of some rich man, in
heritors of fortune which only he
could value who had by toll and sac
rifice amassed it. Now we have done
more than inherit the treasure We
have earned it. We were children of
a great state. We have added to it.
And so, dear America, we write you
from the Rhine. In the name of those
who cannot return, in the name of the
best Of all, those who lie beside the
Marne and the Ourcq and the Vesle
and the Aire and the Meuse, we wish
you Merry Christmas and Happy
New Year. The American soldier
sends you his love.

OTTO HEMP
PASSES AWAY

Another pioneer citizen of Barnes
county, one who was born and raised
in the county, has answered the final
summons, this time it is Otto Hemp,
who passed away in this city yester-
day afternoon, about two O'clock, after
an extended sickness. He was affilict-
ed with cancer of the throat and
during the past year had had two op-
erations and had also taken the ra-
dium cure, but all to no purpose, the
dread disease getting such a hold on
his system that he succumbed to its
ravages and he passed away as stat
ed. Mr.. Hemp is the brother Of Mrs.
N. P. Hanson, of this city, and his
home was at Wimbledon He has
been identified with the development
of Barnes county all his life and was
one of the pioneer citizens who had
done his part not only in the develop
ment of the county but Of the state.
He was much respected by those who
knew him and his demise will be re-
gretted by "a large circle of friends
and acquaintances. The funeral will
be held from the. home of Mrs. Hemp,
S15 Woodland avenue, this city, at 8
o'clock Sunday afternoon.

HOLD THEIR

pensible to the pupils success, become

pensible to the pupils success, become
embarrassing indeed Many high
school classes are sent to other build
ings for recitation, involving exposure
wasted time, administrative difficult
ties, and the use again of unadapta-
BILE rooms. Dramatic work, public
musicale, athletic contests, commence
ment programs, ETC., have to be held
in UNACCEPTABLE rented rooms when
even these are available, and with con
stant threat that such use may be
wholly withdrawal a cost that
would pay the interest on about $1O-
600 of bonds, and with much conse-
quent curtailment in such work.
One of the greatest deficiencies of
the high school is it's dearth of spec
tally appointed rooms. The heart of
high school is its library, yet our
high school has no room it could use
as such, and consequently has but
small and inaccessible library. There
isn't in the high school building
place left where a janitor may sit
down or hang his broom, place for
the storage Of teachers or ianitor's
supplies, a teachers rest room, a. vault
for records |of priceless value, place
OF privacy for consultation with prin-
cipal or superintendent without intrus-
ion, or museum, darkroom, or ap-
.paratus room so essential to a sci
2..nce department. There is not even
6 SaNace to hang the wraps that pupils
ar to school.
Rnother serious but growing diff
Gu g lies in the fact that special
eqt l1ent cannot be sufficiently
spre out. Typewriting and book
keep, 3 classes may need to recite
at the, -.me time but their equipment
has to be kept in one room. This also
affects in a serious way the science,
manual training, home economics and
physical training departments. These
embarrassment vitality affect the
school by limiting the fexibility of the
daily program, and consequently the
course of study and the very method
Of teaching, and thereby the pupils
chances.
The last few years, eliminating in
the period of the war, have brought
new ideas and methods and immense
new responsibilities to the American
high school, during the very period
Valley City has gradually become in
capacitated for that added require
ment. With the war over, Valley City
must not retrograde but rise to her
responsibilities.

BROTHERHOOD
PUTS ON GOOD Time

Monday night at $50 p. m. the
members of the M. E. Brotherhood
and their invited friends met in the
basement of the Epworth church. for
their regular monthly supper. About
35 men were there and partook heart
lily of the good feed provided by the
ladies Of the Ideal Circle. Then fol-
lowed short program which was
directed by the president, DR.. S. A.
Zimmerman. He expressed gratifca-
tion because the men present repre-
sented the country, the city in its bus
mess life and the professions, educa-
tional and otherwise. DR.. C. E. Allen,
president Of the Normal school, was
the honor guest. j. w. Rodewald
spoke briefly yet pointedly on what
the business life Of the city expects
of the Normal school and showed how
it contributes materially and spirit
ually to the welfare of the community
Dr.. J. S. Wilds showed what influ-
ence the Normal school exerts in the
church life of the city as to attend
ance and as to what may be called
the maintenance of ''church morale if
such term is permissible. DR.. Allen
responded earnestly expressing his
appreciation of the words of friend
ship and cooperation and gave as
surance that the Normal school wish
ed to do it's part in the making of a
bigger and better Valley City. The
Y. M. C. A. quartet sang several num-
bers which pleased the listeners very
much. This meeting was very sue
cessful one.

WHY NOT SIGN
YOUR OWN NAME

The editor of the Times Record is
amusing himself by writing articles
in his editorials about the high cost
of everything in Valley City, first
blaming the retail dealers for keeping
the prices up and when he was called
on the carpet for it, and to crawl out
of it, exonerates the retailer and puts
the blame on the wholesaler.
We are not taking anybody's part
in particular, and do not attempt to
defend either the retailer or whole
saler, but as retail merchant we are
interested in the worlds markets with
it's changes in prices and naturally
watch it very closely, and if our edi-
tor would have taken the time to get
posted on prices as we do, perhaps
the two articles would not have ap-
peared in his editorials. For it is a
fact, and we can prove it, that mer-
chants in Valley City are buying from
their local jobbers goods from to
Is per cent cheaper here than from
the east also is it fact that the peo-
pie of Valley City are paying from
5 to Is per cent less for what they
buy (of course there are exceptions.)
Our editor very likely read the but
ter and egg market which showed
decline of SC but did he take the trou-
BILE to find out at what variance our
prices here were from those in the
east on those two commodities for
the last ten months For the benefit
of those who do not know, we will say
that when butter was Is to Soc per
pound in the east we bought butter at
SO to 55c per h., and eggs from Is to
20c per dozen cheaper (at all times
AS for fruit, candy, groceries, yes, and
even wearing apparel and other COM
modities just take the trouble and
read the Minneapolis and ST. Paul
ads, and compare them with the Val
ley City prices and you will notice
a great saving right in our own town.
So Mr.. Editor if you can't boost
your own town merchants don't
knock him.
