Fees Paid Attorneys By
Bank Receivers Being
Given The Once-Over

! Bismarck. N. D., Feb. 20.-The
state banking board is now consider
ing the matter of alleged excessive
payments for attorneys fees by some
Of the receivers Of closed banks. :,
Particularly large payments have
been made to Leslie Simpson OF Dick
inson. or his firm, Simpson & Mack
off, the board has been Informed in
reports.
A. l.. Young. receiver OF the Sc
curity State bank Of New England,
had paid Simpson up to November
%. 1921. $%4,059.29. Since that time,
the board has been informed, $4,000
more has been paid Simpson. He
also is said to have received 1851 for
work for the little First State bank
Of Havelock. The total payments OF
the two banks amounted to SCOOPS
Simpson Is said to have been paid
fees by other Nonpartisan receivers
in banks west of the Missouri river.
The New England bank is one of the
closed banks the board endeavored to
bring in it's consolidation plan in or
der to cut expenses of receiverships,
but was prevented by court action.
No complete statement of expenses
of receiverships has been made, ex-
cept that n member OF the banking
board some time ago said reports had
shown that it had cost 100000 to
collect $1,000 600 in closed banks.

Contract For Rolla
School Is Let; Will
Cost About $4,000

Minot, N. D., Feb. 20.-G. h.
Pugenhagen, Minot architect and en-
gineer, has returned from Rolla.
where he attended the meeting of
contractors who placed bids for the
construction Of the new Rolla school
building which is to be erected in the
spring. About As representatives Of
contracting companies were present.
The building contract was awarded to
Fjelseth & johnson of Devils Lake.
whose bid was approximately $4,000.
Levin & Mowbray Of Minot were
awarded the plumbing contract and
the electrical contract went to q Min
neapolis firm. 1.-THE total range of
the general contractors bids did not
vary more than $4,000 and three or
four bids were exceptionally close"
said Mr.. Pugenhagen. 1.-The act that
the successful bid was considerably
below the original estimate is, 1 be-
lieve.. quite conclusive evidence that
the cost Of building is coming down.
and I believe that at the present time
the cost of building operations Is
down to that of 1917 and 1918"

MUSIC GAINING
IN SCHOOL WORK
Prominent Director Sees In
creasing Interest Each
Year in N. D.

Fargo. N. D.. Feb. 20.-Music is
playing an Increasingly large part in
the public schools of the state. acord-
ing to Nils Bosom, director Of music
in the public schools of Fargo. He
points out that systematic work along
this line was practically unknown in
North Dakota before the war and that
now most of the larger towns have it
Mr.. Bosom also emphasizes the fact
that while the courses must stand for
real musical education-not merely
acquisition of musical parlor tricks
the instructor must take are o Hmake
the subject interesting to the begin
ner.
Just because music is tuneful and
popular is not q, sign that it is harm
full" he says. I'm our work here we
often use such melodies as Will You
Remember from May time and Good
by Little Girl. Goodby' from Apple
Blossoms. They are melodious and
they are artistically written. We try to
make the work serious, however, and
to lead the pupil to an appreciation
of classical music. English classes dc
not spend their time with Nick Car
ter or Diamond Dick and we cannot
afford to spend our time with rag
time"
Is Practical.
This work is doing a real and prac,
teal good. he says. In making tale
communities more musical it gives the
young people an outlet-provides
them with a helpful and intelligent
way of spending their spare time
Such things as good music and read
ing are antidotes for spare time use.
lessly I'M sometimes harmfully spent
he adds. And, he points out, with the
advent of more and more machinery
to do the work OF the world, thu
spare time of the individual is in
creased. thus making the problem o
what to do with it more important.
In Fargo the music work has be
come an established part Of the cours
of study. Students receive full credi
for work done in any of h various
choruses, glee clubs, o. Orchestras o
the school and the students in TIL
high school who wish to take private
lessons receive credit for these. TIL
teacher in such cases must be on
accredited by the school and the pu
pill must S an examination given b,
the school. Also the parent tn
teacher must report as to the worl
done by the pupil.
There are also classes in theory an,
in history and appreciation of music
