4. Resolved further that we, the
teachers Of Emmons county, recog-
nizing the fact that teachers in gen.
eral are, and have been, in the past,
greatly underpaid, as compared with
other vocations requiring like prep
aration and for this reason are unable
to continue the professional study as
required by the state department and
this condition heads away from the
greatest welfare of the schools in
that it is the chief cause of the insta-
bility of the teaching force. For the
betterment of this condition be it re-
act collectively to bring about the
providing of larger fund in order
that the salaries of teachers may be
proportionate to that of other voca-
tional lines.

We wish to thank all who so kind

success and the stay of our teachers
in our city pleasant one. The teach

This week we are attending the
State Meeting OF Minot. Last year
the sickness throughout the country
obliged the officers to postpone the
meeting and there are a number of
important things to come up now.

L. E. BIRDSELL
The entire opinion of this supreme
court justice is bitter denunciation
of the farce that was played by q
bare majority of that highest state
tribunal, and this justice himself was
elected by the same agency as those
others.
The people know that any case ir
which numerous questions Of fact a,t
to be determined cannot rightly be de.
termined by shutting out the evidence
concerned.
That three members of the highest
judicial body in the state would allow
themselves to be parties to an actor
that in fact goes far to protect pos.
sible law-breakers, seems almost un.
believable.
Bishop Lemke, representing the
bank and the leagues interests, dwell
loud and long on the possible hardships
to the bank that would result from
a proper hearing.
1t is hardship on a murderer O,
a spy to be hung, but to date it has
been generally conceded the prope,
thing to do in many instances. Il
this be reasonable contention, ther
it would seem that all law-breakers
would be entitled to acquittal on the
ground that a conviction might worl
hardship on the criminal.

NOTES BY co. SUpT.

Three month Perfect Attendance
certificates were lately issued to the
following pupils: Anna Sogstad, Viii.
son; j. Lee Smith, Williamsport; Wes.
ley and George Baker, Gsanavon; and
Ruby Purintun, Highland.
The following schools made con.
tributions toward the Roosevelt me.
mortal: Hazelton, Linton, Braddock
and Baker No. 8.
We are still short teachers for the
following districts: Winchester, L; Wi.
mona, 2; Union, 2; Hague, l.; and
Highland, 1.
We have been of the opinion that
we have the best corps of teachers
throughout the county that we have
ever had. Since meeting them all
again at the institute we are convinced
of it. This no reflection on former
teachers. 1t merely means that we
have more qualified eachers in some
Of the schools where it was always
necessary to get anyone who would
go there. This year through the CO.
operation of school boards we have
been able to get most of the teachers
located in good boarding places and
this makes it possible to get and keep
good qualified girls to teach there.
One of the most successful insti-
tutes ever held in this county has just
closed. There were 116 in attend.

the county but many prospective teach
ers were in attendance thereby show.
ing desire to perfect themselves for
taking up the profession. Some Of
the teachers in the Kintyre neighbor-
hood were excused to attend the Lo-
gan county institute at Napoleon. The
Braddock teachers will attend the
State meeting at Minot next week
hence were excused from attending
The main emphasis was placed or
methods of teaching and every teach
er showed desire to learn as was
evidenced by the close attention they
paid to every instructor and the reg
ular attendance. We feel confident
that the time lost from their schools
will be more than made up by the
improved methods.

county, is an able conductor and Miss

ers we have ever had.
We expected to have Miss Nelson
and Miss Palmer with us but the de-
mand for their services has been SO
great that they could not find the time
to come down. We expect to get
them down later. Miss Nelson has
been in the north part of the state
for three weeks.
Other lecturers and instructors were
present: Miss Barnes, who taught mu-
sic Thursday and Friday and Mrs.
Tatem, one of the State Rural and
graded School Inspectors. Mrs. Ia
tenn talked to the teachers on Ameri-
canization and Standardization Of
schools. Miss Harrison, head of the
Junior Red Cross of the Northern Di-
vision, salo spoke to the teachers and
about sixty junior branches were or
ganized. Mr.. Townsend, of the Vic
tor talking machine Co., spoke to us
Monday on the value Of the machine
in the schoolroom.

everyone got acquainted. Light re-

WORK JUST BEGINNING

HE war is over now. The huge hospitals IN
France will no longer be filled 20 overflow
= ing with wounded. Soon our lists OF nom
ored dead will be but sad memories. The golcen
stars upon our service flags will never be for
gotten. their names are craven our hearts. But
there are others-silver stars-who need now,
more than ever care and interest. These are the
ones who have returned partially disabled VINO
need physical reconstruction and vocational tram
ing before re-entering civil life. 1t is the great
plan of our government to meet these needs, TO
make these men contented working units, not I'M
happy dependents
One of the tragedies of war is the waste of it.
In the past we have had living waste-men to
whom the agencies of mercy have given life, but
nothing else men whose days reached out in dreary
monotony of forced inaction. Now surgeons and
nurses are laboring that every wounded man shall
be as nearly like his normal fellowmen as possible.
In cases where special vocational training is need
ed it is always given The work of aiding the as
similation of these salvaged men back into INDUS
try is in the hands of the Civilian Relief of the
American Red Cross.
The signing of the armistice did not mean that
an end to this branch of the organization was IN
sight. When the last gauze Damage is rolled,
and the toe Of the last sock done the work OF the
Home Service will still go on. Since war was
declared this agency has stood ready to give aid
and information to- the soldier and his loved ones.
Until the last khaki clad lad is back at his peace
full job it's work will continue In many instances
it will find that job for him. 1t will make the
adjustments necessary in his new life. Growing
in scope and efficiency, Home Service is working
that none of these dead shall have died in vain

OF ONE ACCORD

X/OU knew what was expected of you and you

home expect of me- and am happy to say,
my fellow countrymen, that / do not find in the
hearts of the great leaders with whom i is my
privilege to cooperate any difference OF prlncl-
pie or of fundamental purposes.
at happened that it was the privilege of Am
erica to present the chart for peace, and now the
process of settlement has been rendered compare
lively simple by the fact that all the nations con-
cerned have accepted that chart and that the APP
plication of those principles laid down there will
be their exploitation
s"The world will now know that the nations that
fought this war, as well as the soldier who repre-
sented them, are ready to make good-make good
no. merely in the ascertain of their own interests,
but make good in the establishment of peace upon
the permanent foundations of right and of JUS
tice."
Thus the President spoke to the assembled re-
representatives. of the A. E. F.'s rank and file on
Christmas Day. No more hopeful message for
this hopeful season could be imagined. At one
stroke it knocks down the whole flimsy structure
of doubt and mistrust which our enemies have
been endeavoring, ever since the signing of the
armstice, to erect in the minds OF loyal Americans
and their Allies
No difference of principle or of fundamental
purpose; ready to make good not merely in the
assertion of their own interests"-those are good
statements for all Of us to remember the next
time the whisperers. the poison peddlers, venture
to thrust their ugly wares before Us.

A bill has been introduced in the state legis-
laturc to authorize she county commissioners
of Winona county to designate a German
newspaper in which the official proceedings
of the board of commissioners may be pub
lished in the German language. The mea-
sure should be defeated. The reason is obvl-
Gus. If it is proper to publish the commits
soners proceedings in the German language,
then it would be proper to publish them IN the
scandinavian language. There is no partlcu-
lar call for the publication of the commission
ers' proceedings in any but the English Ian
guage-Joe Reynold.
Let's go a step farther, Joe, and say that there
is no need of any paper whatsoever in the state OF
Minnesota save those published in the English Ian
guage. The one hope we have for the State Ed
torial Association is that it will go on record tol
English and English only in our schools and IN the
press. If we are going to Americanize America
lets start in with her language 1t matters III
tie to the present generation perhaps, but may
make a material difference with those who come
after us.

AS an indication of efficiency OF our pres

20 mail them three copies of their paper for

under separate wrapper, so that they can be
assured of securing at least one copy. On that
basis every subscriber should have three pa
pers mailed 20 insure his securing the paper

DECISION

Almost everyone who is not saving now expects
to do it sometime-when it is easier" But
with the non-savers it becomes HARDER to save
as time goes on; habits become more deeply root
ed in the character, and wants grow faster than
+bo income TT Will, NEVER BE EASIER TO
SAVE THAN RIGHT NOW.
To be sure the high cost of living is with u.s.
One of the Creates causes of high prices is the
eagerness of the unthrifty to get rid of their mon
ey. Times always getting better for money
savers.
Down in the depth of your heart you KNOW
you ought to be saver-not spasmodlc one,
for that won't get you anywhere but consistent
money saver.
You know that your DECISION 70 be one stands
bewteen you and the goal of your ambition.
