State superintendent Would Keep
Children I'm School

School authorities are urged to re-
strict as far as possible the granting
OF workers permits TO children OF
school age In letter sent by Thomas
f. johnson, superintendent OF public
instruction, to school commissioners
and superentendents throughout the
state.
There are men and women enough
to do the work of the industrial
world" Mr.. Johnson declares, "and
the boys and girls should be in school
He urges that all cases in which per-
mits are sought be investigated care
fully and that school officers "scrut-
inize all cases where such permits
have been granted in the past"
In view OF the mothers pension law
and the law permitting boards of ed
ucation TO assist in the support OF
children of indigent parents, Mr.. John
son points out that there are few
cases in which it will be found that
the workers permit is absolutely
necessary.

OSBORN on JAPAN

Chase Osborn, Jr., spent the great
en- part OF year in Japan. He went
there 10 observe and study conditions
in the Island Empire. with the espe-
cial idea OF determining the probabili-
Hty OF war between Japan and the
United States
Mr.. Osborn has contributed five art
icles TO his papers, the Fresno Herald
and the Fresno Morning Republican.
In which he details conditions that
rule In Japan and tells his readers his
opinion OF what the Japs really seek.
The articles were copied in the

Michigans 1921 potato crop will be
at least six million bushels short OF
the five year average yield. according
TO A. ID. Large general manager of the
Michigan Potato Growers Exchange,
following a survey OF the state.
The official crop report predicted a
yield OF twenty-five million bushels In
Michigan this year. against twenty
eight million bushels. the five-year av-
erage. Mr.. Large. according TO his
statement, believes the crop in Michi-
gan will be short OF the otficial predic-
ton. investigation having shown the
/ late varieties have not set as heavily
as had been expected. He declared
reports from growers who already
have dug their crop show a yield OF
only fifty per cent.
The price to growers is expected by
Mr.. Large to be about $3.50 at harvest
time. with indications that this figure
viii increase during the winter. The
fact that a crop shortage is anticipat-
ed in all northern states except Maine
should hold up prices. the manager
declares.
The favorite growing weather of
the last month leads us to believe that

tatoes on the sand lands in Michigan
will be unusually good this season and

ECREASED FARM DEMAND

During the war years there was a
cry OF lessening farm population. es-
pecially in northern Michigan. From
present indications II would seem as
II the process is reversed and people
are going back TO the farms.
The demand for western and north
ern Michigan farm lands is increasing
To such an extent that Secretary VIM.
p. Hartman OF the Western Michigan
Development Bureau predicts business
in this property will be unusually ac-
tive during the fall and winter.
The majority OF the inquiries have
not come from cities but are being re
ceived from farmers in the central
west where farm lands, highly inflated
the last few years. have no tendency
To lower.
In commenting on the inquiries, Mr.
Hartman said These prospective
settlers are OF the most desirable type
They have money and the necessary
experience to farm successfully. Land
values in Illinois and Iowa are report
ed SO high that the farmers this year
are unable to make the interest on
their investments They are looking
TO Michigan for ranches suitable for
their needs and they are finding that
in this state they can get good un-
developed land for $40 TO s25 an acre
and upwards"

After lot OF seemingly needless de-
| lay and verbal twistings the Sim Fein
and LLOYD George have agreed to meet
and talk things over across table.
Those who have been on the inside or
affairs on either side To the controyer-
ay were Away sanguine OF q peaceful
outcome OF the attempt to parley. Most
we'll informed people are likewise
sanguine OF successful outcome OF
the parley. Everyone hopes for that re-
suit. excepting. perhaps few ultra
loyalists In Ulster who fear that the
getting together OF England and Ire
land will deprive them OF the special
privileges they have enjoyed as a re-
suit OF the estrangement.
A great deal will depend upon the
Willingness OF the English 10 bring
pressure TO bear upon Ulster and like
wise upon the extent OF the limita-
tions which the south OF Ireland WIN
insist upon being placed upon Ulster.
While II is generally supposed that
the differences between Ulster and the
differences, as a matter of fact the re-
hgious side OF the CONTROVERSY is only
a shield for the industrial autocrats
OF that section OF Ireland, most OF
whom are either Scotch OF English, TO
hide behind and thus maintain the
special privileges that have been ac-
corded them since shortly after the
Grattan Parliment was abolished by
the act OF Union. II Is quite certain
that a determined effort Will be made
by this element in the north OF Ire
land to prevent the union OF Ireland
and England is some sort OF working
compact through which Ireland--all OF
Ireland--will be allowed TO run its own
affairs and at the same time be associ-
ated with the other sections OF the
British empire in amity and reciprocal
security.
or course there is the ultra radical
OF the Sim Fein whose effort Is Tn
strike at England more than II Is TO
help ireland. When all OF the hard
ships which the people OF Ireland
have suffered. mainly at the hands OF
the ruling class OF England are taken
into consideration IL, is not surpris-
ing that there should be wing OF the
Irish people so set in their hostility.
However, II the signs OF the times

give and forget" in the air and It Is
due To these ultra wings
on both sides that Lloyd George and
DeVelera have had such a lengehy
Both sides started In
with the "high and lofty" attitude,
assumed to quiet the ul-

A FOUNTAIN AND
IT'S SOURCE

There is an old saying that foun
tain cannot rise above it's source. Fig
uratiyely speaking. a community can
not rise above its level morally, poll
tically or intellectually The level of
a community is generally fixed by the
plane OF thought and action OF It's
leading citizens.
All this is brought to our mind by
a story told us this week by a public
officer who was assigned to the task
OF pulling" some blind pigs in Iron
River He found himself in high dis
favor with many of the better ele-
men" and was counseled cajoled
pleaded with In an effort 10 call him
on. Some OF the coarser acting are
reported 10 have actually offered him
pay TO desist. The law breakers were
needed in the community for they
were good fellows
This sentiment isn't confined TO Iron
River. II is fast peryadlng the en-
tire county. Bootleggers and blind
pig proprietors exist in this county
because the ground is fixed for them
by a lax sentiment on the part of
those who ought to be moulding a SEN
timent designed to pull the county up,
not drag IL down.
II Iron county is going to rise to
the level of decency It must first lay
the foundation OF decency We are
sorry TO have to gay that its far from
decent at the present time.

Mr.. F0RD'S TIMBER
CONSERVATION

The forest conservation advice given
by Henry Ford in his Iron Mountain
interview last week has been highly
productive OF discussion II nothing

Michigan people will know more about
Michigan timber and timber lands than
they do today, and their knowledge
will be more practical and less theore-

lands now covered with forests that

tilled lands and an immense amount OF
idle land that ought TO be in forests
or in coming forests. Henry Ford
has some-yes very much--land in his
holdings that ought TO be reforested
and IL he is as sincere in his declara-
tion as IL seems on It's face, he will
just as soon as he can be assured OF
adequate fire protection and sane tax

no good for anything else. Likewise
there are thousands or acres in other

A very pretty program was given
Tuesday afternoon at the o. c. w.
proving TO be one OF the most strik-
ing. features of the commencement
exercises. This was a style show
and art exhibit. Those appearing in
the show were girls taking domestic
art, both in the preparatory and col
lege departments.
The dresses and hats worn in the
show were made by the wearers.
Miss Winnie Davis acted as Fleu-
rette, before whom, the graduating
preparatory girls appeared, dressed
in their graduation costumes. After
this Fleurette fell asleep and while
she slept her dream was revealed
by the appearance of the remainder
of the girls in the domestic art de-
partment in summer costumes. The
last act was clever when swings
made of spring flowers were lower
ed from above and the twelve girls
who swung scattered bright colored
confetti over the audience and stage.
The afternoon was brought to close
by an exhibit in Miss Harriet Days
studio. Paintings, pottery and other
articles made in the craft course
were shown. f gHt
