FORESTRY-NORMAL NEWS

The total enrolment for the Sum-
r,ner Term is 149 plus twenty-three
children in the kindergarten, 172 in
all. This does not include, of course,
the Special Glasses of Central School
children who are meeting each morn
ing in the high school. The 149 in the
normal school proper constitute 60
per cent increase over last summer.
The term has started off in the best
of fashion and promises to be in ev-
cry way the best term in the schools
history. A good many students have
not only had teaching experience but
have had schooling in some of the best
of the higher institutions such as the
Universities of Chicago, Minnesota,
North Dakota, Valley City, Minot and
others. A social event had been plan
ned by the faculty for the students
for the first week but on account OF
the weather it was postponed until
Monday this week. The picnic was
held in the grove on the creek near
the creamery Monday afternoon at
four. On account of the drizzling rain
that set in about five o'clock the party
was cut rather short. Two ice cream
cones were provided each student and
faculty member. It is planned to have
a number of social events during the
summer session and every encourage
ment will be given for students and
teachers to become acquainted.
The enrolment by sexes for the
terms of the present school year has
been as follows:
Boys: Fall term, %; Winter 4s;
Spring, 20; Summer 20; Total Is.
Girls. Fall Term, SO; Winter, IL;
Spring, IS; Summer 120; Total 191.
Grand Total. Fall, 81; Winter 119,
Spring rs, Summer 149. Total 266.
The figures under "Total" repre-
sent the total number of different stu
dents during the year, counting none
twice.
At convocation exercises Monday
this week the students and faculty
members by round table discussion de-
cided upon a plan to be followed this
week. The problem was, how much
time should be taken off for the big
Fair. The faculty had decided in ad-
vance that one day or two half days
was as much as could be missed with
out making it up. The final agree
ment was that the school would ad-
journ Thursday noon for the rest OF
the week, and the work missed Thurs
day afternoon will be made up. The
Fair has many educative features in
addition to the attractive adjustment
features and is well worth seeing by
students of the Summer Session.

/ WORKMAN SHOWS
AT STATE FAIR

AS only one big feature with Clar-
ence A. Wortham's Worlds Best
Shows, which will furnish the attrac-
tion at The North Dakota State Fair
at Grand Forks, July 1928, inclusive,
is three ring circus and wild animal
show. When Mr.. Workman organized
his first show it was his intention to
give the people who patronized him a
great variety of entertainment. He
took features at Coney Island, the
great Atlantic sea coast resort, and
made them portable. Then he added
the great American institution, the
circus.
Mr.. Wortham owns and directs five
big open air companies. Others of his
chain Of amusement cities have been
seen at the fair, but this will be the
initial bow Of the Worlds Best Shows
Wortham's Worlds Best Shows are
better known on the Pacific Coast
than in the East. That is where they
winter.
At the last national meeting the
fair secretaries were offered any one
Of his five companies. This is then
choice for the fair season Of 1921. The
company carries twenty shows anc
five rides Among the former are Ey.
ans queer animal show, presenting
odd specimens from the farm; a mon
key circus; a diving girls show, which
introduces two troupes of trainee
seals; Noah's Ark, the latest thing i

THE CAUSE OF
"HARD TIMES"

There are still a few Democrat
who might say that the Republican
administration is to blame for tn,
hard tines; just as there are :
few unthinking Republicans who say
that the late Democratic administra,
ton is the cause. They are boil
about as far wrong as anybody could
be. The real blame should be
placed on the a
The war disorganized exchange
and destroyed the buying ability of
the greater part of the world. When
world markets are in an unhealthy
condition, we cannot have prospect
ty. There is nothing that can be
done within our own country that
will entirely cure the situation. Yes
terday the world went on a big
spree: today the world is sick. Most
of the things advocated for cure can
do no more than provide temporary
relief; some of the remedies will pro-
duce mere local anaesthesia.
1t would n othave helped matters
any if America had stayed out of
the War. That would have disturbed
the worlds financial balance to an
even greater extent. II we had kept
out of war, times would probably be
a great deal worse than they are.
1t is right that President Harding
should be given authority to adjust
the debts which the various nations
owe the United States. Some of our
debtors are literally bankrupt; un-
less the loans are adjusted, these
countries will continue in a bank
rupt condition and will not be able
20 buy our goods. We must be mer-
,iful in self defensel
If we dislike hard times, we
ought to hate war. The best safe
guard against war is to teach the
young people to study international
problems in a calm and dispassion-
tie name Wars strongest ally is
lysteria.
