HIGH SCHOOL WILL
INCLUDE NEW COURSE
OF INSTRUCTION

With the beginning of the school
term this fall there will be new
course of study provided in the Phil
lips County High School, the school
board having arranged to include
Smith Hughes agriculture and farm
shop work in the present schedule.
There may be some question in re-
gard to the meaning of the term
"Smith Hughes Agriculture" A few
years ago congress passed a bill
known as the Smith Hughes bill
which provides for federal and state
aid for any high schools adopting
the prescribed course of study in
agriculture. home economies, or
trade and industry. This federal
aid amounts to one-half of the sal
ary which the Instructor of that
particular course may receive.
The object of the Smith Hughes
bill was to stimulate more interest
In the three courses named above,
especially among high school stu
dents who plan to make their life
work one of the three vocations pro-
vided for in that bill.
The aim of the work in agriculture
as outlined by the government vo-
cational educational board. is to ar
range and carry out n course of
study which fits the needs of that
particular community. The success
of the course will depend upon the
amount of good practical work that
can be carried on in cooperation
with the class and study periods. or
in other words. more practice and
less theory. We are planning to use
the full half day for some form Of
the agricultural work. This will al
low ample time for extensive field
trips. laboratory and class room
study and farm shop work.
The farm shop will take up the
use and care of tools, making use
ful and practicul home and farm
conveniences, rope work. repair
work. etc. II will come two davs a
week, leaving the other three davs
for field and class work
ANY student enrolling in the Smith
Hughes agricultural course will he
required to carry on home pro-
iect in connection with the school
work TO receive full credit in agri-
culture. These projects will require
n certain amount of outside work
by the student and will be under the
supervision of the instructor.
The regular Smith Hughes agri-
culture is designed ns two. three
or four year course and fitted pri-
marily to commence with the fresh
man or sophomore year. However.
We have planned to include also a
course in general agriculture for the
upper classmen who desire work of
that kind. This will be carried on
independently of the other course.
The real success of this new work
will depend upon the cooperation
of the students and the farmers of
Phillips county with the high school.
Our work will be what YOU help us
make it. The agriculture building
is being fitted MS rapidly MS possible
TO aid in the farm problems of this
county. and in any way that we can
be of service to the people. we will
be glad TO help.
II YOU have any samples of grain
or other crops that will do for dis
play in our agriculture room we will
he very glad TO call and get them.
If You have any especially good
stock We want TO know about it.

SAYS DRY LAW
NOT STRICTLY
PUT IN FORCE
Anti-saloon Counsel Says Fed
eral Judges and Attorneys
Encourage BO0tleggers

Washington, Sept. LIMITED States
judges and district attorneys, alleged
corrupted federal agents and the poll
tical campaign are charged by Wayne
B. Wheeler, general counsel for the
Anti-saloon league with responsible
ity for unsatisfactory enforcement of
the prohibition law in several states.
In statement issued today, Mr..
Wheeler alleges that district judges
have aided the bOOtleggers by giving
them small fines and showing antag-
onism to the law, that district attOr-
neys have precluded enforcement by
demanding too much evidence and
that state and federal officers alike
are making the prohibition law 4
political football"
While pointing out the laxity Of
the laws enforcement the Anti-salOOn
league official says that all will come
out right in the end and that present
conditions need not alarm friends of
prohibition.
"The law enforcement situation"
Mr.. Wheeler said, "is complicated and
unsatisfactory in several states. The
reasons for it are apparent. Nine
states have no state enforcement
codes. The federal force in these
state is inadequate to enforce the
law. Some of the federal agents are
not doing their best, but most Of them
are. A limited number have been
corrupted by the liquor dealers who
take long chances in selling liquor.
"a few United States district judges
have encouraged the bOotleggers by
giving small fines and displaying an
antagonism to the law in the conduct
of the case. Several district attor-
neys have required evidence of
character before they will act, that
precludes effective enforcement. We
must remember also that we are in
the midst of political campaign. 1t
always is harder to enforce liquor
laws at such times.'

HAIR. CATCHES
ON POWER BELT

New Rockford, Sept. Mrs. Chas
Allmares suffered a very painful in
jury at her farm home out west OF
the city, while doing the family
washing. The washing machine was
manipulated by gasoline power, and
while the belts were in motion, Mrs.
Allmares stopped over the machine
to adjust some part, when her hair
was caught and pulled with such
force into the machine, that her scalp
was torn just above the eyes. Mrs.
Allmares freed herself by terrific
jerk, which pulled the hair from the
top of her head Her screams
brought chore boy from the barn,
who stopped the machine and sum-
moned the men from the field and a
physician from this city. The lady
is suffering very great pain even yet,
but it is hoped she will recover short
ly. Miss Mary Allmares, who is a
student at St. Mary's Hospital, re-
turned home to care for her sister

WHISKEY TAKEN
AT MIN0T AFTER
EXCITING CHASE
Sheriff Makes Fast Time in Au-
tomobile in Pursuing Al
legged Bootleggers
SEVERAL SHOTS ARE FIRED

Minot, Sept. Am exciting three
mile chase by fast auto, shots from
revolvers and rifles, capture of IL
cases of Canadian whiskey, and arrest
Of Fred Scott and Frank Gibson, for
mer railroad men-were sensational
features of a thrilling night ride made
in the early morning hours by She
.iff Scofield and four deputies.
Stationed at strategic cross roads
point about ten miles north of Mlnot,
the sheriff and deputies awaited south
bound cars, and stopped several. When
a touring car containing two men
hove in sight, Sheriff Scofield's flash
light wigwag produced no effect save
that of making the occupants put on
more speed.
Fired Two Shots
Sheriff Scofield fired two shots from
his revolver in an endeavOr to hit the
tires, and little farther down the
road, two deputies Joined in with
rifles, but without visible effect.
The sheriff and deputies gave i'm
mediate chase and after thrilling
three mile pursuit gradually overhaul
ed the fugitive car. Just to enllven
the chase the pursuers fired few
times at the fleeing auto ahead.
The chase ended when the tugl-
tives attempted to cross a ditch into
a field rather than slow up for a
turn. The two men started off afoot
but soon halted at<commands from
the sheriff.
~They were taken, into custody and
brought to MinOt.
Threw Out Sacks
During their flight the pair threw
out four sacks containing Whlskey,
leaving two more in the auto. One
bullet had pierced fender and glanc-
ed off the side Of the car, while an
other bullet from the rifle pierced
the seat, broke several bottles, and
partially penetrated the front seat.
Both men were arraigned in county
court this afternoon on information
field by States Attorney o. B. Herig-
stad, charging them with having in
toxicating liquor in their possession
for sale as beverage. Both pleaded
not guilty and put up bond OF $500
each, to appear at the next jury term
of county court. .-a

STRIKING COAL
MINERS QUELLED
BY U. s. TROOPS
Machine Guns Backed by In
fantry Halt Riots in West
Virginia Coal District
MINES ARE ATTACKED
Reinforcements of Troops Sent
to Mines Today; Martial
Law May Be Declared,

Williamson, w. Va, Sept. Fir
ing from the wooded heights upon the
village of Chattarcy during the coal
miners strike continued most of the
night, according to belated infOrma-
ton reaching here.
The attack was renewed on Mine
No. Of the Thacker Coal Co., about
two, miles up Thacker creek, from
the Norfolk railroad.
Reenforcements of federal troops
were sent to both points today. D..
Two skirmishes in which United
States infantry took part during
which more than 1000 rounds of am
munition were used and one in which
machine guns were used by the SOL
diers caused the issuance of an Off:
cial bulletin by the United Mine
workers declaring that the sending
of federal troops into the West Vir-
ginia coal mining district was due
to misunderstanding between Gov
ernor Cornwell and Governor Nor
COW.
Attack Mines
Yesterday morning 200 men formed
on both sides of the mountain above
Siderboom and began a threatening
march toward the homes Of the Of
ficial and workings of the Howard
Collery Co.
This band was challenged by the
guard of federal infantry. A number
Of shots were exchanged during the
running encounter.
Martial Law. Talked
Later in the day a large force Of
men attempted to attack the Thacker
Coal and Coke Co. The soldiers on
guard swept the surrounding woods
with machine gun fire. So far as is
known no one was killed.
Following this conference was
held by CoE Burchardt in command
nt the troops and the civil author
tiles. Although no statement was
made the report spread rapidly thai
: declaration of military law in the
town was hourly expected. r
Big Fight On
Only eight soldiers were on duty
in Chattercy when the shooting from
wooded mountains started last night
but they returned the fire of the mi
ners.
The commercial wires, it is said
had been cut early in the evening
and all news of the attack were sent
to military headquarters at Syca-
more Hollow, near here.
Nothing is known here as to the
outcome of the fight. Shooting at
Mine No. 2 of the Thacker Coal Co.
became so heavy at II o'clock last
night, according to information re-
ceived here, that a special train was
quickly made up at Sycamore Hol-
low, loaded with armed men. When
detrained, according to report, they
were sent into the woods, spreading
out along the mountain in an effort
to rout the miners.
The outcome Of the drive was not
known here as the military author
tiles did not discuss the situation and
telegraph and telephone communica-
ton was impossible.
