!: LlCIOUS EDUCATION

| What is to be a very important try
out of new plan for the giving Of a
more adequate religious education to
the childhood of North Dakota, is to be
staged at Bismarck, in the Will school
beginning Monday, August 18th,
when, under the auspices Of the North
Dakota Sunday School Association,
there will be put on what is called a
daily Vacation Bible School," for the
children of Bismarck. .,s 4
These schools have been developed
now thru a series of try outs in re-
cent years, in some of our larger cit
les, in an attempt to bring the child
hood of the cities into relationship
with an educative and moral force,
and have met with very great success.
The International Sunday School AS.
ISOLATION, in the adoption Of its pro-
gram for giving system of religious
education to the CHILDHOOD Of America,
at it's Buffalo Convention, last June,
adopted the Daily Vacation Bible
School with notifications, in it's pro-,
that type. et. -..s... t .5.-s
Rev. E. A. Finn, of Beloit, Wis, an
expert in the promotion of this type
of school, will be in attendance At Bis
marck, on Friday, Saturday, Sunday
and Monday of this week, when he
will hold an Institute for the teach,
ers and those who are going to admin
minister the affairs of the school. Mr..
Finn has had very great success in the
promotion of such schools in Wiscon-
sin, having conducted eight such.
schools in his county of Rockland this
past summer. He brings to North Da-
kota a very fine ability in the success
full development of this enterprise.
The plan, of the school is to bring
the children together during the morn
ing hours for two weeks period, un-
der this supervision, and under. the
kind of teaching that will enable the
work to be adequately done. The
teachers are all public school teach
ers, and are giving their time to the
matter in hand. The. plan includes
the following pregnant: An opening
period, bible hour, missionary hour,
bible memory hour, hymn study and
memory hour, with recreation per-
iod, and finely developed plan for in
teresting the pupils.
A very successful school is antici-
pated, under the direction of Mr.. Finn
and Miss Palmer, who has been inter-
ested in this type of work, studying it
at the International Training School
for Sunday School workers at Con-
ference Point this past summer, and
also at the International convention
at Buffalo last June. It is expected
that this will be, but beginning of a
very extensive program to be put on
in North Dakota this next summer,
and much interest is being evinced in
the same.
Any information for those who may
wish to visit the school, may be had
from Miss Bertha Palmer, State De-
partment of Education, Bismarck or
from the office of the North Dakota
Sunday School Association, 13 A. 0.

d. Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 16.-What
promises to be the greatest duck
hunting season in many years may be
spoiled because of the grasshoppers,
say farmers who reside near the duck
passes and lakes. Old-timers insist
that never have there been as many
wild ducks on the North Dakota
swamps and sloughs as this year.
Nor have there ever been as many
grasshoppers. Thousands Of farm
ers have scattered poison in their
fields to kill off the grasshoppers-a
mixture of arsenic, brand and molas-
ses., But the ducks have gone after
the sticky sweet poisoned mess when
feeding in the fields: and thousands
have died. 4.a e.

days they were considered impreg-
nable. In the days before the war
they were called a veritable Gibral-
tar.
A Prophcsy of the Kaiser
Wilhelm Hohenzollern, then kai-
ser, said shortly after the province
had become a part of his realm:
Where a German who fell in do
ing his duty to his country lies bur-
led, and where the German eagle
has dug it's beak into a country, that
country is German and will remain
German"
The first part of his conclusion,
at any rate, became a truth in Shan
tung.
When Japan took it away from
the Germans. Berlin newspapers
complained of the loss of forty mill
lion dollars spent in improving the
province.
In addition to changing Tsingtau
from miserable village of mud huts
to a modern sanitary city, the hosts
of kultur built railroads, opened
German, schools, erected monu-
ment to Admiral Diedrich. the CON
queror of Kiao Chau," improved the
harbor opened mines, built wharves
with tracks. electric cranes and all
lacllltleS Tor nandllng large traf-
tic. 1t was Germany's only holding
in the Far East, but the kaiser
priced it as one more unit in his
dream of pan-Germanism.
n German Naval Base
Tsingtau has respectable harbor,
but no element of a first class port
like Hong Hong and Singapore. It's
railway facilities were never more
than local in their scope. The coal
mines were exploited to some ex-
tent; but what made Kiao Chau i'm
portant in the Germans eye was the
naval base it afforded. 1t will be re-
membered that one of the kaisers
vain hopes was to become mistress
of the sea. In order to rule the
waves there must be base in every
sea. Kiao Chau was the Pacific
base
AS a commercial emporium it was
i'll chosen. Compared to Shanghai
for instance, it is like Baltimore
compared to New York. But it will
serve Japan's ambitions in the Far
East to much better purpose than
the kaiser ever dreamed it might
serve him.

STATE PUBLICITY

A T THE conference of Pennsyl-
u vania publishers held in this
city last week one of the most
important addresses was delivered
by a New Yorker and in his opening
remarks. referring to the increase of
advertising publicity throughout the
country, he made the statement that
no advertisement ever put out had
done Pennsylvania so much good as
the S50,000,000 loan for permanent
road building in this State.
He urged the publishers to get be-
hind this great highway program on
the score that nothing they could do
would be of greater benefit to the
people. Subsequently the publishers
adopted a strong resolution endors-
ing Highway Commissioner. Sadler's
policies respecting the making OF
permanent roads and approving his
course in permitting no political or
other interference with the plans
promulgated by the State admins
tration in the matter OF substantial
and permanent road construction.

A PRETTY TRIBUTE

" HE decoration of the light stand
ards at the entrances TO the
Mulberry street bridge as a
tribute to the city's soldier dead
is a pretty idea for which the
Harrisburg Rotary Club is to be
thanked. These boxes throughout
the whole summer will shed their
beauty and perfume upon all who
pass and will reflect the tender sem
timents each of US holds for the men
who lost their lives in France.
The decision to dedicate these
boxes on the eve of Memorial Day
is equally good. 1t will in no wise
interfere with the ceremonies of the
day following and will add a new
note to the annual observance of
Decoration Day IN the city.
Next year, it is to be hoped, the
club, as it plans, will find its way
clear to place boxes from one end
OF the bridge TO the other.
