Cit Gems SHOULD
!. GIVE INFORMATION
Bureau Of the Censu, Require.
Mortgage Data from City. Pen
atty Being Withheld

The Tribune has been requested by
the Bureau of the Census and thru
the Commercial Club of the city to
Impress upon our citizens concerning
the necessity of compliance with the
law relating to the giving of facts re-
garding mortgages on their homes
should they be so encountered. A
questionable or confidential blank
stating plainly what is wanted has
been mailed to those whom the GEN.
sus enumerator reported as having
homes subject to such Indebtedness.
It appears that two previous re-
Quests have been sent to the families
owning homes with encumbrances and
that a large number have failed to
supply the federal department with
the facts required. A third request
is now being mailed.
Evidently the recipients of these
requests have not realized the value
and Importance of these statistics.
The Bureau of the Census is carrying
out a plan of research or survey work
which will be of untold value to the
Government. The Government has
thru an act of Congress made it OBJ
ligatory on the part of the Census
Bureau to obtain this information in
vesting it with the power of legal
prosecution should the facts be denied
the Bureau. Thus far the Bureau has
refrained from carrying out the pen
atty and has politely repeated its re-
quest. When such courteous means
have been exhausted it will undOubt-
eddy exercise it's power as the law
directs.
The people of Willmar should ap-
preciate the Importance of the re-
quest and Immediately fill out the
confidential blank with the informa-
ton desired. The facts will be kept
strictly confidential and are not for
public examination except in the sta
tistical report which omits individu-

FAST MAIL BACK
Mail Trains Off Willmar Route
Since Last Summer Will
Come Back

Next Sunday the two fast mail
trains which were discontinued over
the Willmar route last summer will
come thru Willmar with the Sunday
papers and on week days with the
morning editions, from Minneapolis
and St. Paul. These trains are No
% which will arrive at 1920 A. NJ and
No. q will come in at 10:49 A. M.
In an endeavor to economize and
save time these two mail trains were
taken from the Willmar route and
placed on the Fergus Falls route last
summer. Since that time it has been
found that the change has not brot
about the expected advantage.

MEDAYTO FARMS DUROCS

Durocs are known turnout the corn
belt as the mortgage LITTER" This
applies to breeders who raise Durocs
for breeding purposes as we'll as to
farmers who feed for the market, The
type of animals that produce the big
gest amount of gain on a certain am
cunt of feed has been found by actual
experiment to be the kind that have
big frames, and that under natural
feeding conditions will grow to be
large animals. Constructive Breeders
have developed Durocs and present
prices are such that the increase
from these good animals are profit
able to raise for breeding stock and
for market.
To. the beginner the low-backed,
short-legged, squatty hog is the cas-
Ter hog to furnish for market but be-
fore he gets to the size and weight
he has consumed more feed, and as
often expressed, "eaten up the pro-
fits While the right type hog has
grown every day while putting on fat
We have many Durocs Of all ages
at our farm, and it might be Of inter
est and profit for you to spend short
time studying this type. 1t would be
a pleasure for us to show you our
herd at any time. e..

MONEY SPENT ON
i: III LUXURIES HEAVY TOLL
twenty-five Times the Amoun
Spent for Education in

America has no passion for educa-
ton said B. B. Jackson, supt of the
Minneapolis Schools -..-
The figures based on government re-
ports of 1920, show an expenditure of
$22, ZOO, ooo,0O for the so-called luxur-
les. This is % times as much as was
spent for education, and six billions
more than has been spent for educa-
ton in the United States in all the
cOuntry's history, Mr. Jackson's state
ment declares, and then points out
the following:
| l. We spend more for powder, cos
metics and perfumes than for elemen-
tary and secondary education;
2. Jewelry costs 100000 more
than the salaries of teachers in the
elementary and high schools;
3. Chewing gum costs two and one
half times as much as the training of
all our teachers;
4. Soft drinks cost two and one
half times as much as all our colleges
and universities and professional
schools;
5. Toilet soaps cost as much as the
salaries Of all elementary and second
airy school teachers;
6. Cigarettes cost twice as much
as the salaries of elementary and high
school teachers;
7. The total cost of tobacco was
five times the total of all teachers
salaries, and as much as the total cost
of elementary and secondary educa-
ton for the years 1916, 1917 and 1918;
What Savings Would Do

iasm and patriotic devotion the peo-
pie who use tobacco had agreed, am

, i Sllu ClOI H..

Peter r. Sletten, formerly Of Will.
mar, paid the following tribute to Miss
Lawrence, retiring educator at St.
Cloud: r. .
Miss Isabelle Lawrence Of st.
Cloud, Minnesota, will withdraw from
her service at st. Cloud Normal school
this coming June. She has served
this school for forty-two years. She
has served as teacher and at times
as acting president. She has also
found time to take prominent part in
the National Educational Association
and other important teachers asso-
Citations. She is an author of peda-
gogical productions of note. = -
An institution, city, state should
count it great asset when blessed
with whole soul teacher or teachers.
They are means OF incalculable value
above any battleship or cannon for
the projections and welfare of the
country. They are among the main
pillars of a free country and should be
carefully selected and retained in
their valuable services. r..
hope the day is not far distant
when real teachers will be recognized
in such way that they can be retained
in their work. We are dependent up
on our teachers as to the failure or
success of our dear country more than
most of US admit, due to little or no
consideration to the question"
