The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1921-02-24

The Fargo Courier News fails at
this time to print any Of Mr.. Cathro's
testimony or that Of Mr.. Lofthus or
any other person who has testified be-
fore the investigating committee at
Bismarck. If the league organ had
the least idea Of being fair to the peo-
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1921-02-24

Is it any wonder now that their own
hirelings have testified as to the rot
ten condition of affairs existing in the
Bank of North Dakota that the nom
partisan members of the house and
senate tried to block every move to
investigate, hoping to hide the horrid
mess which they we'll knew would be
disclosed were an investigation made:
and the facts given the lig hit of day?
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1921-02-24

As the end of the legislative session
is drawing to close, we hope that,
considering the vast amount of unfin-
ished business in connection with the
investigation of the Bank of North
Dakota and the other state indus
tries, the legislature will take steps
to see to it that the mess is cleaned
up and the states affairs placed on
sound financial basis before adjourn
ment or arrange that an extra session
be called to finish up the business.

Now that the legislative investiga-
ton has uncovered the putrid mess in
the Bank of North Dakota, and its
connection with the Scandinavian
American Bank, which from all &C
counts financed the various nonpar-
tisan league political industries; we
wonder if the farmers who signed on
the dotted line-for several thousand
dollars each-realize that they are
holding the sack? For where is the
money coming from to pay those notes
now? Wake up or you perish.

If the facts disclosed by the investi-
cation going on at Bismarck, N. D., re-
garding the manner in which the Bank
of North Dakota was conducted, and
the purpose for which the funds were
used by the socialistic incubus, could
be read by the farmer members OF
the nonpartisan league-who are not
leaders but followers of Lemke:
Cathro, Frazier, ct al it's moral
certainty that by next fall it would
be impossible to find enough nonpar
tisans in the state to hold quorum.

pie among whom the paper circulates
1T would at least print the sworn tes-
timony Of these men and let the peo-
pie on the farms judge as to which
side is telling the truth. The fact
of the matter is that there are thous-
ands of farmers who only read the
Courier-News and the Nonpartisan
Leader that they do not know what is
going on or what their leaders are do
ing. These league papers are etern-
ally crying "let the truth be carried
to the people" and then they stife the
truth by refusing to publish it. They
fear the result Of the publicity of their
own leaders activity in the state ad-
ministration.

The Courier-News comes out with a
big headline Sunday saying that the
Bank of North Dakota was to be op-
ened up for public deposits. Well that
sounds all right. But if you cannot
pry loose the money you now have
in that bank, and the bank is "broke"
Of what sense or reason would it be
to send our money up to the state
bank to place on deposit? We sup
pose it would be loaned out to a bunch
of league politicians in every county
like it was in Barnes county, then
when it was checked against the
checks would be returned-as they are
now-with the statement illegally
drawn, no funds" No, fellow citi-
zens, the only way that bank can be
put where it rightfully belongs is to
liquidate it and make it into a rural

LARGE ATTENDANCE
 AT PLAYGROUNDS
2,0OO Children Are Cared for by
 Trained Supervisors

Few people in the city can possibly playgrounds, established at the various
 schools, are to the poor of the city, un- til visit is paid one of the aforemen- | toned places. It is estimated that on an average of 400 to 500 children visit each of the playgrounds during the course of day. This means that over 1000 children a day are cared for at the public playgrounds under trained | supervisors.
 All of the grounds open for the day at 9 o'clock in the morning and end the days activities about o'clock. During the course of the day the chll- dren play volley ball, German bat ball,
 baseball and many other such games as well as ride on the swings, enjoy | the see-saws and play in the sand. Miss May Begley, who is the general | sewing teacher, makes the rounds or the various playgrounds giving lessons l in sewing to as many girls as care to | learn.
 l A visit to any of the grounds shows that a very cosmopolitan group makes up the attendance. Children repre-
 senting all nationalities play side by
 side while the supervisor, perhaps, IS
 on the other side of the grounds in
 structing another group of children
 how to play a certain game. A load
 of sand has been placed in each of the five grounds in which the smaller chill
 dren spend a greater part of the day | at play. .. | Plans are now being made by the | various supervisors to have series of
 inter-playground baseball games. Prac- tice games are being held every day at the grounds, both in the afternoon and | evening, and the first game of the series will be played next week at date to be | announced later Inter-class track | meets are also being held at the five
 grounds and prove of interest to a
 great many children. The playgrounds | in the city are at the Burritt, Smalley, Smith, East and Bartlett schools.

MORE COOPERATION NEEDED IN SCHOOLS
PaStor-TeaCher Claims Old Fash toned Teaching Method a Mistake

Practical Christianity is what the Daily Vocational Bible school, now be- ing conducted in the Center Congresa- tional church under the direction of Rev. Frederick H. Wilkins. is teaching, according to statements made at the formal opening last. evening. We learn by doing and not by academical teach ing said Rev. MT. Wilkins. ''Too much impression and too little expres- sion is the fault of our modern system of teaching the children in school, ,' continued the speaker. He told the story of the boy who took a correspond ence course in swimming and graduated with honors. The first time he went into the water he drowned.
 What Our School Attempts to Do. 1" was the title of Rev. MT. Wilkins talk to over 50 parents and friends of the pupils who were present. He told them that the object of the school is not to take the place of the home but to assist the home by teaching the chil- dren things they would find necessary to know We are assisting the parents ~ Oo IiiCI WOIk. He duOeQ.
 He spoke of two principles of the schools, usefulness and cooperation.
 NO democracy can be what it wants to be unless each citizen is useful The trouble with us today is that peo- pie have not learned to work together At home or in school we were kept apart, we were not allowed to help each other with our lessons and now we do not know how to work together If we would teach more cooperation among the school children. we would have bet ter politics when they grow up." con- cluded the speaker.
 The value of this school to a con- munity cannot be measured in numbers and quality only,'' said Rev Samuel Sutcliffe of St. Marks Episcopal church. Rev. MT. Sutcliffe is intensely interested in welfare work among boys and girls and although exceedingly busy in his own parish, spared enough time last night to deliver an address at the opening of this school.
 ''The child is the greatest asset tc the city of New Britain" continued the rector of St. Marks. ''The govern ment of this city is what we make it. The boys and girls are it's future lead | CTS, whatever we make of them now l that will be our city government ir l years to come.'' He spoke of the value 1 of a school such as this one and saic it was applying the principles of socia l christianity in a useful manner and no l simply giving the children some dr. | theological discussions which would b, over their heads. He spoke of the tre
 mendous influence of such a school il
 the home and community.
 Devotional exercises were led by Rev | G. M. Missirian of the Stanley Memoria | church. Ascar Marsh, chairman of th | committee at the head of the school | presided over the meeting.
 After the meeting the visitors wer
 shown about the school and expressed | considerable interest and quite littl | surprise in the many things being ac complished by the children.

PEARL ST. TO HAVE 5FT. BUILDING LINE
 
Stephen Lynch Protests for Knights of Columbus for NauBht

Although the Knights of CoIumbus
 as represented at the meeting last
 evening at the board of public works by stephen A. Lynch, was opposed to the establishment of any building line
 on Pearl street, that board recom-
 mended the establishment of a five
 foot line at the K. of C. home and
 at the Stanley property and a r foot
 building line on all properties between
 these points, Joseph Swanson also ex-
 pressed himself as being opposed to
 any line in this section while w. E. Beers, M. l.. Stanley and John Olsen
 wanted 20 foot line. MT. Olsen said he favored any kind of a line that would not interfere with the proper ty now on the street.
 The acceptance of Commonwealth avenue from Stanyey street to Carlton street and Uncas street from Common wealth avenue to Highland Terrace was recommended.
 Hearings were heard on the pro- posed building line on Logan street between Brook and Mill streets The only Logan street man to appear in favor of grading the street was F. J. Ahearn. He was in favor of grading providing it did not entail too much iexpense. It was voted to recommend grading the street. If the customary bond is filed, the board will recommend a water main ! in Shuttle Meadow avenue from Lin- coin street west for 750 feet. The in stallation of the main was voted upon
 petition of Philip B. Stanley. ! A petition from Alice O'Connor for
 macadamizing Brook street from South Main to Bassett was tabled Temporarily.
