WAR RECORDS.

The record of Pembina county's
service in the World War is to be
collected and preserved in county
war history museum, under the
direction of Mrs. Ada j. Robbie of
Cavalier, newly appointed county
chairman of the North Dakota War
History Commission.
Mrs. Charles F. Amidon, of Far
|go, a member of the Commission,
visited Cavalier last week to help
start the work in Pembina county.
After consulting with many local
people, she asked Mrs. Robbie to
accept the county craftsmanship.
Mrs, Robbie will choose her own
sub-chairmen and committee men,
bers.
The state war history commis-
sion plans to have a memorial room
lin each county in the state, where
war documents, individual service
records, photographs, trophies, let
ters from the front and other his
toric material which will be price,
less a few years hence may be
gathered before it is hopelessly
scattered. The exact location Of
the Pembina county memorial room
will be decided by Mrs. Robbie and
her assistants. In most counties a
room in the county court house has
been selected as the most appropri-
ate place.

According to the state auditors
report the State Of Minnesota has
$42,406,636 in the permanent edu-
cational trust fund. The school
fund Of North Dakota was over ST.
600, 600 four years ago when the
Townley administration took charge
of things and now school orders
are being refused payments, and
many schools, including state in
stitutions, cannot pay their teach
ers for lack of funds. The money
is all gone for goodness knows
what. big Biz" got its work in
somewhere. There is a wonderful
contrast in the management Of
these two states. North Dakota ID
managed by q Socialistic political
combination and the school funds In
Minnesota is being taken care Of By
the taxpayers locally, the same as
we did before Townley got control.
We cannot see where any person,
outside Of those who have Q foot In
the political patronage trough can
vote for anything but "recall' at
the coming election this fall.

"A PLEASANT OUTING.

The boys Of Pembina, st. Vincent
and Humboldt and intermediate
points spent this years outing at
the Roseau Rapids, east Of Domin-
ion City, Manitoba, under the su-
pervision Of Rev. Mr.. Robertson Of
Pembina and Prof. Tri Of Hum
boldt.
The, boys from Humboldt were
Raymond, Walter and Harold Bar
nes, Charles and Homer Brown,
Wilbur and Alfred Coulter, Lloyd
Easter, Clifford Easton, Divine Fitz
simmons, Raymond Gallagher, Ell
mer Jenkins, Lloyd Mckenzie, Ar
thur Woodruff, Warren and Scott
Matthews, Arthur and Warren Syl-
vester.
The boys from North Star were
Swan Anderson, Robert and Wood
row Ash, Lawrence and Rodger
Ward.
The st. Vincent boys were Rus
sell Ash, James Bernath, Keith
Cameron, Cecil and Adolph Cleem,
William and Harris Easter, Norton
DeFrance, Lawrence Lapp, Brooks
Perry, Earl and George Sylvester
and Fred Stranger.
Pembina was represented in the
party by Clarence and Wardwell
Cockburn, Donald Mcqueen, Ardies
and Nathan Myrick and Sterling
Often.
Messrs George Matthew, Albert
and Thomas Brown and Geo. Hare
Of Humboldt, and Thomas Ash, VIM.
Mason and Arthur Hutchins of st.
Vincent took their automobiles and
conveyed the campers to their des-
tination.
\ : The visitors during the weeks
stay were Mr.. and Mrs. Albert
Brown and Miss Merle Williams,
Geo. Ash Jr., Mrs. Ash, Mrs. Ward,
Mrs. Anderson, Jack Webster, r. H.
Lapp, J. T. Cockburn, the Misses
Mackay of Noyes and Miss Snyder
of Emerson.
The week was spent pleasantly
and each day the campers took
their daily exercise. The bathing
was fine every day they had swim
at the stated hour. The meals were
psspared by the heads of the camp
/ but each boy washed his own dish
es and put them away for the next
meal.
The Roseau Rapids is an ideal
Irlace to go for an outing, for the
river is shallow, with stone and
gravel bottom, and danger of acci-
dent from getting into deep water
is very remote.
A few cases of homesickness was
reported by some of the little fell
lows but all think it will be good
place to visit next summer.

ANOTHER FALsEHooD.

The Washington News Letter that
Olger Burtness writes the Pembina
Pioneer Express each week hands
no one any bouquet except McCum-
Der and Burtness, and in the one
last week he goes out of his way to
slam his predecessor, John M. Baer.
We will add that if Burtness stays
in Congress 20 years he will never
get as far as John M. Baer did in
the short while he was there. And
as for Senator McCumber he has
simply discredited himself with all
the ex-service men. Everybody
knows that. The more reactionary
they are the better they suit the p.
E.-Cavalier Chronicle.
The hired man on the Chronicle,
who has to do as he is told, takes a
slam at our congressman to shield
the mismanagement of the Townley
administration in this state.. 1T is
one Of the most unjust statements
we have seen published by one who
claims to be halfway decent. Mr..
Burtness has never contributed one
word to the columns Of the Pioneer
Express. He devotes his time to
attending sessions of Congress to
which he was elected. Different
from his predecessor, Mr.. Baer, who
the Chronicle tries to laud. When
Mr.. Baer was in congress, drawing
his pay from the government, he
spent much of his time drawing
ridiculous cartoons for Socialist
newspapers, and belittleing every
body who would not fall in line with
the Socialist Townley policy in this
state. And he was proud Of his
work for he attached his name to
each Of these cartoons. He is fol-
lowing the same occupation now,
with this difference he must draw,
his pay from the same source Edi-
tor Kent is, for his government pay
checks quit coming when the people
of North Dakota elected him to stay
at home last fall.
For the information of the Chro-
nicle we will say that our Washing
ton correspondent is a person of
ability, who is out Of politics, and a
close observer of what is going on,
which his articles indicate. Mr..
Kent, if you will apologize to Mr..
Burtness for your unjust remarks,
we will publish the name Of our
Washington contributor and give
you his personal address. Now be
fair and accept the offer.

Attorney General William Lemke
has been in Washington again this
week past but as usual his friends
were quite reticent as to his errand
here. John Thompson, a Nonpar-
tisan newspaper man, accompanied
'liam, probably as a sort Of an
orderly.
Mr.. Lemke is said to like the city
|of Washington very well indeed and
it is no secret among some people
that the Bishop considers himself
highly available for a senatorial
toga. Lemke, it is said, had such
aspirations last year but after due
confederation 'bided his time; prefer
ing to better perfect his fences as
the "power behind the throne" in
North Dakota. Now however, it is
averred, Lemke is pretty we'll satis-
fed with things and since the next
campaign is only year or 80 dis
tant it may be that he is looking
about for a residence site down on
Connecticut Avenue, along with the
foreign ambassadors and the other
elite Of the Capitol. The Home
Builders law is still in effect and by
straining 2 point William may fig
ure that the state might just as
well erect him another mansion
here.
Of course, Seth Richardson has
not landed on the Federal payroll
yet and Bill may be putting in q
little boost for him on the side.
While here Lemke has conferred
with Senator Ladd and Walter Lig-
gett, among others, and no doubt
the result will soon be apparent.
Liggett has been throwing bricks
at Senator McCumber for some rea-
son and William may have some
new ammunition to give him. Lig-
gett needs it, too, for he is sadly
lacking in imagination for q man In
his present calling. Walter evi-
IDENTIFY has his suspiciona Of any
man who has been in public life for
. few years. Recently he con-
demned one Of the North Dakota
solons for being acquainted with
men Ike Lodge, and smoot Of Utah.
That the three had been associates

IN the Senate for many years was
no excuse either it was . ghastly
crime just the same.
The other day Representative
Sinclair was seen TO nod pleasantly
to "Uncle Joe" Cannon as they pas
sed. in the Capitol corridors. Per-
haps Liggett will find this out some
day and read him out Of the Lea
que. Walter is the kind of : boy
who would bristle up his back and
snarl upon passing bank clerk.
The name Of Judson LaMoure for
Collector Of Customs at Pembina
was sent to the Senate by President
Harding. This appointment was
predicted in this column recently
and it is believed that confirmation
will be had without friction. Other
recommendations for Federal posi-
ticns are also likely to be made in
the near future. Mr.. LaMoure was
recommended for the place by SEN
ator McCumber, as was Colonel
White, now United States Treasur-
er, SO it would seem that the senior
Senator is receiving due considera-
tion at the White House.

The hopes of those who have
been anticipating easy access to
medicinal beer seems doomed for
the Willis Campbell act to forestall
such a liberalization of the Vol
stead law is about to pass the SEN
ate. Many influential men in both
houses have opposed the present
dry act, including Senator Lodge,
the majority leader, but the bill
passed the House by a comfortable
majority and similar action by the
Senate seems assured. So people
who cannot do without their. beer
will still have to find solace across
the line or in Cuba.

anti-beer bill Is passed.
The committee has not yet taken
action upon the question Of giving
tax revision precedence over the
tariff. Such action may be defer
red until the tax bill has been sent
to the Senate from the House. \,
In the Committee on Ways and
Means Of the House, Of which Geo.
N. Young is member, the MEM
bers are still grinding away on; the
new tax bill and, according to
Chairman Fordney, the bill will be
reported in record time. Later this
same committee may have to do
further work upon the tariff bill in
the event that the later measure is
much revised in the Senate, after
which there is still the possibility
that the soldiers adjusted compen-
sation act will again bob up. The
American Legion is working on the
proposition now and have tentative
plans whereby bonus committees
will be set at work in each Of the
forty EIGHT states in order to work
up sentiment in the interests Of
such legislation. II
The soldiers representatives in
Washington are working away on a
definite program with the hope, no
doubt, that their friends in Con-
gress will bring the compensation
act to a vote Before the end Of the
session. Steps are being taken to
counteract the propaganda now
being sent out against pay ad-
justment. American Legion offici-
als state that they will fight the
question to the last ditch, despite
the attitude Of the administration.
IA legislative committee represent
ing the Legion and the Veterans Of
Foreign Wars conferred with the
President and Secretaries Hoover
and Mellon last week and while
they received little encouragement
they evidently are not disheartened
by the present outlook. An inten-
sive publicity campaign will be
launched Immediately and work
done in every congressional district
in the country to bring the situa-
tion before the public.

DISTRICTS MERGE
 TO FORM BIG SCHOOL
(By the Associated PressA

Garden City, Kan, June 23.-What IS described as one of the most elab- crate and complete consolidated school plants in America has just been ded lcated at Holcomb, seven miles west of Garden City on the western Kan sas prairie. The plant cost $225, ,OOO.
 Seven school districts joined to construct the single plant where the pupils may have the advantage of a city school, including manual train lng domestic science and scientific training of several varieties. Six one-room schools of the old type and three-room school at Halcomb were abandoned in favor of the consoli- dated project.
 The pupils are transported to the school by motor busses driven by teachers who receive $2O month for this extra work. The busses have a capacity of thirty to forty pupils each.
 The Holcomb consolidated school district has an area of 124 1-2 square miles. The school population at present is 375. The new plant has a capacity of $50 grade and high school pupils.
 The consolidated school group con- sists of seven buildings in all, with others to be added later, first class farm for instruction in practical ag- riculture, and large athletic field In addition to the main high school building and grade school building, there is a large garage for housing the motor busses, cottage for the superintendent, faculty home, cot tage for the agricultural instructor and farm superintendent, and a cot tage for the janitor.

 Both universities will send to the starting line tomorrow afternoon in the varsity race, eights generally thought to be inferior to those of last season, when Harvard defeated Yale by several lengths. Harvard has won only one varsity race, beating the weak Massussetts Teacher eight, but losing to Cornell and also to Princeton and the Navy in trian- gular contest. Yale has been defeat ed by Pennsylvania and Columbia, in dual races, and by Princeton and Cor nell in triangular regetta.
