PENN STATE WINS
 OVER TECH ELEVEN
 BY SCORE OF 28TO7
In First Quarter Only Does Golden Tornado Show
 Winning Form

New York October 29.-Penn States stalwart football warriors swept around, through and over the fighting Georgia Tech eleven at the Polo grounds today. The final score Penn State, 2S; Tech 7--shows how markedly the Ntttany Lions out classes the widely heralded Golden Tornado.
 The feature of the game was a thrilling S5yard run by Killinger, States fleet quarterback, who caught a kickoff on his 15-yard line and never stopped until hs had squirmed through, the Tech team and planted the ball back of the southerners' goal.
 Barron and Harlan, the stellar line p1ungers from Dixie, were watched too closely to get started. At the beginning of the game, Tech prom ised great things by ripping States defense to pieces and carrying the ball on a steady march for 66 yards for a touchdown. That was the only time in the game that Tech showed winning form. Killinger's great run, coming immediately after Tech had scored, seemed to instill the States players with new spirit, and they were never again in danger.
 Both teams worked the passing game freely, but States sharp losses over the line were more successful than the long throws made by liar Ian and Barron. The game was re- msrkably clean, only four penalties being inflicted. One of these, how ever, called Wilson of Penn State, back to the 30-yard line after he had run through the whole Tech eleven. A crowd of 30.000 witnessed the game.

SOME THOUGHTS ON ]
''AMERICANIZATION

(By Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker, Ex-
President General Federation Of Wom-
ems Clubs.) a .. ......
If l were called upon to single out
the one respect in which we, Ameri-
cans err most in our judgment of the
immigrant who comes to us, I, should
say this: "We assume the attitude
that America has everything to give
and nothing to receive from the for
eign born" In reality, every immi-
grant comes bearing gifts in his hand
if we were only wise enough to see
these gifts and to make use Of them.
Every nation of the old world has ira
ditions, art, skill in handicraft, love
of beauty in form, music and poetry
that would enrich our national life.
can never forget an incident that
happened during the war; ! was in
New York inspecting work done for
the foreign born. A Y. w. C. A.
worker asked me one day, "Would you
be willing to climb four flights of
stairs to see an Armenian family ?"
Of course assented. When the door
to the little apartment opened, / stood
in the presence of beautiful woman;
perfect Madonna. In broken voice.
but beautifully modulated, she said,
"I'm sorry you must climb so high,
but we Syrians would climb up even
more stairs for the air, the sunshine
and the water, which we love. I was
born beneath the cedars of Mt. Lee
banon and it is very difficult for me
to become accustomed to the squalor
of the street."
There was friend there, gifted
young woman from Minnesota. After
she saw New York harbor stretch
ed out before her, she eagerly asked
"Can I see the statute of Liberty? l
would rather see that than anything
else in New York." A truly dramatic
incident. then happened. The little
daughter of our hostess took her by
the hand to the window, flung open
the easement and said; "There she
stands waiting to welcome us all"
AS my friend turned to me, there
were tears in her. eyes, and I could
not help thinking; "Oh happy daugh-
ter of Minnesota, to catch your first
glimpse of Liberty through little
dark-eyed maid born on Mt. Lebanon"
The child continued, "My sister and I
stand here often and watch our trans
ports loaded with our men sailing
away to fight for our flag. We wave
them goodbye and often they signal
back to u.s." Perhaps these little girls
waved goodbye to your boy and mine
when they slipped out in the early
June morning on the great gray
transports. Did not this family come
bearing gifts in their hands?

Last FRIDAY afternoon at Fargo

Last Friday afternoon at Fargo
occurred the marriage of Miss Bertha
Carlson of Valley City to Mr.. Lizem
Ledoux of this place. The bride is q
daughter Of Mr.. Carlson. widower OF
that city, and has for some years been
in charge of her fathers household.
When old Dan Cupid looked around
the corner and found two anxious
hearts ready to wed, he led them to
the altar, but Miss Carlson as Mrs.
Ledoux will continue her household
duties as she has undertaken nobly
the care of her small sister and broth
err while her father will discontinue
housekeeping in Valley City. Miss
Carlson is one of Valley City's most
estimable young ladies, and will be
welcomed to our city by all. Mr.. Le-
doux is a son of Mrs. Mary Ledoux
of this city. and is known as an ambi-
tious, energetic young man, with all
the glowing prospects of the future
before him They have taken up
housekeeping in the residence of an
uncle of the young man, located in the
eastern part of the city, and the con-
gratulations of all are exsended to
them.-Tower City Topics. Z

PENSION !.
" LAW IS EXPLAINED

Saturday at chapel Mr. C. A. Lee
explained the law passed by the
thirteenth session of the general as
sembly on a Teachers Pension and
Retirement Fund. Those teaching
previous to January, 1914, were priv
LEGGED to elect to come under the law;
to those beginning their careers as
pedagogs since that date it is COM
pulsory. In 1919 this law was amend
ed to include teachers in state institu-
tions
He stated few of the articles con-
tanned in this law. A board Of five
members is appointed by the govern
or and of these two are the State SUI
perintendent of public instruction and
the state treasurer. Miss Amidon is a
member of this board. They care for
the funds and decide upon the eligi-
bility Of any member receiving pen
sion. ., e. .,
All going out to teach for the first
time this year must come under this
law. One percent of the wages is paid
in annually for the first ten years.
Then for the remaining fifteen years
two per cent must be paid. However
a maximum of twenty dollars per pear
has been set for the first ten years.
This makes a maximum payment of
$500 for any teacher during the
twenty-five years of teaching.
This fund is used as pension fund
for retired teachers. A maximum
annuity of $3.50 may be drawn and.the
minimum is $3.50. This is apportion-
ed according to the sum paid before
retirement. If the maximum has been
paid the maximum may be drawn hut
if less than the minimum has been
paid the deficiency has to be made up
before any money can be drawn.
Besides~th amount paid by active
teachers the county superintendent of
each county must report to the county
treasurer Of his county the number Of
children of school age and he in turn
must remit to the state treasurer ten
cents for each child.
In order to receive this pension one
must teach the required twenty-five
years. Eighteen of these and the last
five must be in the state of North Da
kota. A teacher automatically with
draws when he discontinues teaching.
If member pensioned recommences
teaching his annuity stops until he

If you have bad luck today there's
a reason. Today is Friday the 18th.
Perhaps a lot of folks never thought
about it, and went right on their way
never worrying at all. But not so with
some of the more observing. For the
superstitious this is the day when
the worst evil may befall you. 1t is
claimed that to avoid bad luck one
must have rabbits foot, taken from
a rabbit killed in the dark of the moon
in graveyard at midnight. Ladies
and gentlemen of the African bru-
nette color are said to be especially
lucky with this charm. The 18th does
