LAND SCHOOLS -
WE'LL ATTENDED
Farmers of the County Dis
playing a Good Deal of Inter
est in Best Methods of Clear
ing Land.

For the past two weeks, land
clearing schools have been conduct
ed in various parts of the County.
The farmers came in and used his
methods of getting rid of the stump
He compared his method with the
method used by the University Land
Clearing Department. Many Mr..
Farmer came in with the idea he
knew all there was to know about
Kidding his field of the stump. After
staying at the School all day, he
went away with "a much different at
titude which was that he didn't
know all there was about Clearing
land. Again many came in with
some very valuable suggestions
which will aid others in their clear
ing operations.
Rain caused halt at Oulu to one
day of school At Mason and Iron
RIVER the schools were not as sue
cessful as in the other localities. AT
Mason the farmers were busy with
other work, but the few who We're
there. studied the advantages OF the
school and now they are asking to
arrange for three or four days OF
school in that locality at various
districts.
The only criticism we find about
the School is that there were not
anouph of them. The Land Clear
ing Association is planning to hold
another series of schools later on
which will cover the County more
thoroughly.

PARIS REAL ESTATE
 BOOM HAS VANISHED

PARIS, April (by Associated Press) The boom seems to have de- parted from Paris real estate values. It was enormous while the rise in the prices of rents was on, but now there is general stagnation in that business.
 During the boom, fantastic prices were paid for sites for moving pie ture houses and dance halls, 10 times the prices of 1914 were paid for apart ment houses and suburban property was up seven times it's former values.
 The stagnation is attributed to measures taken by the government to curb the eXactions of the landlords, to the widespread expectation in the de- cline in the cost of living and to op- position of capitalists to invest in real estate.

TOM MOORE IN ROLE OF "THE GAY LORD QUEX''
 AT EMPRESS TONIGHT

All the dash and gallantry of Tom Moore, all the winning qualities of his smile; all the power of his great dramatic ability, have been instilled into his latest and most popular play "The Gay Lord Quex," which is show ing tonight at the Empress.
 AS a rash and genial lover and heart breaker, whose many escapades have given him none too savery reputation, young Lord Quex gayly pursues his way. He's all the more interesting to the fair sex because of that very reputation, and he gallantly lives up to it-always iuvolved-al. ways in hot water-and always just escaping serious consequences.
 And considering the bevy of beau ties to whom Tom, as Lord Quex, makes love, you really cannot blame him. Rather, we envy him the chance. Gloria Hope, as Muriel Eden, demure, wistful and sincere, with a beauty as appealing as it is unusual;
 
 Naomi Childers as the stately duch- ess, with her wonderful poise and charm, and Hazel Daily as Sophie Fullgarney, the little manicurist, chic and saucy, and with a gift for in- trigue that adds no little to the pep and punch of the picture. Others in this, unusually strong cast are Sydney Ainsworth, P. H. Mccullough, Arthur Housman, Kate Lester, Henry Miller and Kathleen Kirkham.
 Gay Lord Quex" is a delightful ex- ample of comedy farce, and Tom Moore as the irresponsible, irresist- ible young scapgrace, is ideally cast Completing the program there will will be shown a News reel, a short comedy and a Pathe Review.

SURPRISE FOR JEWELLERS IN
 PICCADLLLY

LONDON, April 7 (by Associated Press). - Two hundred 'picked troops" of the Salvation Army, headed by brass band, made an attack on London night life recently. The forces gathered in Regent street shortly be- fore midnight and appeared suddenly in Piccadilly Circus, surprising the crowd in the cafes and other places of amusement.
 Without warning the strains of Shall We Gather at the River?" burst upon the ears of the revelers and the cafe devotees. Pedestrian traffic practically stopped while the march CTS passed up Shaftsbury avenue into Leiscester Square, then to Charing Cross.
 When the battalion reached Leice- ster Square, four young women in furs, silks stockings and Piccadilly complexions brought up the rear of the column.
 Things have been in very bad way here for some time past" said Commossioner Cox who led the at. tack. "An outcry has gone up that nobody is doing anything in behalf of the young women and girls who are found on the streets nightly in greater numbers.
 'Why there should be so many mere children on the streets it is difficult to say, but probably the war has had a great deal to do with it. It gave them a taste, not for wickedness. but for life as they understand it. They and that very often leads to sorrow"

TRY TORUN THINGS
 AS THEY WISH

ROSARIO, Argentina, April ' (by Associated Press).- A band of uni versity students took forcible posses sion of the municipal building a few days ago and dictated a decree talk ing over the city government with a view, they said, to settling the strike of municipal employees and other workers from which the city had been suffering for several weeks. At that stage they were arrested
 The students overpowered the jani- tor and the night watchman, the only persons in the building at the time, and locked them in a room. Then, after hoisting the watchman's red coat and cap on the flag-pole, they broke into the mayors office and proceeded to dictate their decree. In it they Ire moved" the mayor as useless" and named one of their own number to fill the vacancy" They also dissolved" the city council and replaced it with a cOunc!l or students ana WQrkmen, They were on the point of removing the chief of police, but this part of their decree was never finished.
 The janitor had escaed and notified the chief of police who sent a de. tachment of mounted police to the building and the student government suddenly found itself faced with re. volvers. It submitted to arrest with out resistance and was locked up,
 While the authorities professed to view the incident as a students prank nevertheless, strong guard has now been placed about the municipal build ing.
