HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The total receipts Of the concert Civ
en- at the high school on Friday eve
ming, April 1st were $1O6.45. This
amount is nearly all in the clear as
the stage equipment has been pur-
chased and paid for with the money
which was cleared at the November
entertainment given in the Grand
Theatre. The entire high school and
faculty appreciate very much the
large crowd which have attended our
entertainments during this year. It is
indeed pleasure to do this work
when our efforts are appreciated in
such large measure.
The classes in Algebra have been
making a study Of graphs and their
uses. They discovered that scarcely a
magazine is published which does not
contain craps Of some sort. They are
being used in the modern advertise
ment sections. Some very interesting
material was presented and discussed
by the classes. ~
AS an original problem a graph was
made by certain group in the class
showing the comparison of grades
l4nade by the slk classes in high school
for the first semester. This data was
worked out on the percent basis. This
work was done by the entire group
after which a very good bar graph
of it was made by Frank Hunter.
From the graph the class decided that
the Senior class had done the best
work Of all classes. The Junior class
had the highest per cent Of AS, this
class also had the greatest number of
E's by large majority.
The second group in like manner
made a study Of the grades Of the
resident and nonresident students.
From this graph the class decided that
/ the resident students ranked higher.
The difference however was not as
great as was expected. The graphs
this time of two kinds, line and bar
graphs, thse were very nicely made
by Lucy Mack and Joseph Davis.
The announcement that the Normal
school will hold their Annual High
School Track Meet again this spring
has started the athletes to mummur
again and work on Track will start
soon.

SUDDEN DEATH Of
MRS. R. B. Smith

The City Of Bottineau was greatly
grieved last evening when the word
Of the death Of Mrs. r. B. Smith of
this city was given out.
Mrs. Smith, had undergone an oper-
alton at st. Andrews hospital Mon
day morning from which she never
rallied, life passing out at seven
o'clock last evening.
Belle Lazear was born at War
wick, New York, thirty-two years ago
and was married to Mr.. r. B. Smith
nine years ago, coming to Bottineau
in 1914, from Wildrose, N. D. In Bot
tineau their three children were born,
Robert age seven, May age five and
Wilbur age 2. Besides her husband
and children Mrs. Smith leaves to
mourn her loss, her aged father, w. C.
Lazear, one brother C. w. Lazear Of
Warwick, N. Y, and a sister, Mrs.
Wilmarth Tuthill Of Goshen, N. Y.
The remains will be shipped to War
wick tomorrow morning, and will be
laid to rest beside those of her moth
er.
Mrs. Smith was one of Bottineau's
most prominent and most loved
women, being of a very kind and
pleasing disposition, always doing ev-
erything in her power for anyone
in need and it will be very hard for
Bottineau people to realize that Mrs.
Smith has been called from our midst.
Deceased was member of the East
ern Star Lodge of this city and will
be greatly missed by that body.
To Mr.. Smith and family, The Cour-
ant joins with the entire community
in extending it's deepest sympathy.

FORESTRY NORMAL NEWS

The Board of Administration meet
ing held at the Forestry State Normal
School Thursday and Friday, March
81 and April 1 was a most successful
one. The important issue was that Of
the 1921 summer school. On Thursday
evening delegation representing tho
Commercial Club headed by H. O.
Sheldon and including Representatives
from McHenry and Rolette counties
and various towns and country dis
tricts Of Bottineau county, met with
the Board and the entire question was
very thoroughly and ably discussed.
At the meeting Of the Board the fol-
loving morning the Board felt justi-
fled in granting the summer school
request. Mr.. Cahill stated at the morn
ing session that as a member of the
Budget Board he could explain that
the money for the summer school had
been eliminated because it was the
understanding at that time that the
school would likely be discontinued
but. that now the situation had chang
ed and that it was the policy of the
Board not to hamper any institution
as long as it was maintained. NJ,
Totten, chairman of the Board, stated.
that he considered the Board was JUS
titled in granting the summer school
request because of the situation we
find here, the intense interest Of the
people Of this part Of the state in this
institution"
The attention of the public is call
ed to an ad in this issue, announcing
the Second Annual Summer Session.
Further announcement, with the pro-
gram of studies and full details, is

tation Is taken from the report or
the bankers committee; "The com
mittee Is firmly convinced that the
greatest difficulty which has always
faced this section Of the country NJ
the maturity Of the cotton crop Is a
necessity for either dumping the
production on the market at the
time the producers notes mature and
thereby greatly congesting trans
portation, banking facilities and de-
moralizing the market, or the neces-
sity Of creating some other kind OF
credit instrument which can be
easily handled, 10 serve in the gap
between the harvesting and the
gradual scale Of the crop and the
realization Of its proceeds"

N. Y. Commissioner
OF Health Opinion
About Tobacco

What are the facts about tobaccof
Is IL safe 20 use III
| have certain convictions regard
[ ing this matter. The first is this:
Tobacco Is capable OF producing
I positive harm 20 the immature and
I developing body II has too power
/ ful an effect upon the heart and the
nervous system to justify any other
conclusion.
Therefora tobacco presume we
are discussing smoking alone
should never be used under the age
Of 20
Whether il may be safely INDUCED
in after 20 depends upon the indi-
vidual and. how il is used
Everyone knows that the danger
Of tobacco lies in the contained nic-
otine. There is said to be enough
nicotine in one cigar 10 kill 100 rab-
bits.
Combustion decomposes nicotine
and renders Il harmless. Unless the
combustion is complete this desirable
end is not attained.
Let US apply this test to the var
ious methods Of smoking:
The pipe offers every facility for
vetting the tobacco. The saliva flows
by gravity down the stem into the
bowl Countless matches are neces-
sary TO keep up fire IN the soggy fuel.
Needless 10 say, perfect combustion
is impossible unless the pipe is kept
clean and dry.
The last third Of the cigar be-
comes soaked with the saliva. Nat
uraly Il won't burn readily. There
fore the butt" Of a cigar may be
harmful, because its nicotine will
not be burned away.
The cigarette is papcr-covered. It's
very nature and makeup are con-
ducive TO dryness and of necessity
the whole outfit burns readily. Es-
pecially il smoked in a holder 10 keep
the saliva away from the tobacco,
the cigarette is more likely to develop
perfect combustion than Is any other
form Of smoking material.
II pipe or cigarette were other
wise on equal footing the cigarette
would bear away the palm. But too
many users of cigarettes inhale the
smoke.
lUtft can ut no tOtnpEotuist uttt.
Inhaling tobacco smoke is harmful to
health, and in my opinion the prac-
tice shortens life.
The moderate use of dry tobacco,
so treated as to remain dry till the
fire reaches IL, and smoked without
inhalation will do little harm to
healthy adults. II Is such a depres-
SAINT and has such an effect upon the
sympathetic nervous system. how
ever, that certain vital functions are
lowered IL tobacco Is habitually and
excessively used in middle age. At
his time Of life one must choose be-
tween the greatest possible alertness
of function and the Joy and solace
Of tSe weed.
Lastly, let II be remembered that
tobacco smoke Is tangible and
material thing. II Is just as real az
dust, and Just as irritating to the
membranes Of the head. throat and
lungs.

NO WORD FROM JAPAN ON
 FAR EASTERN QUESTIONS

Washington. July 1.-The state ce- partment so far as could be learned to- night had received no word from Tokio in response to the informal explanation made Friday as to the probable scope of the conference proposed by President Harding to discuss far eastern questions.
 Officials believed several days might elapse before any response would be re- ceived and this was strengthened tonight after the reading of Associated Press dispatches from Tokio stating Japanese opinion, both officials and public was greatly divided on the issues involved in the proposed conference. It was stated no dispoNtion existed to seek hurried reply from the Tokio government and it likewise was made plain that a confident belife existed that Japan willingly would be glad to join Great Britain, France, Italy and China in accepting but par ticipation in the discussions
 Suggestions have been made that some of the other powers, notably Belgian and The Netherland. possess interests bearing on the proposed conference. Their sug- gestions have been met, t-is understood with the explanation that while it had appeared unadvisable to conclude others | in the full discussion, there will. be nc disposition to close the door to the small CT powers when questions affecting then are up for discussion.
