Farmers who desire to take cash
discount of three per cent on their
hail warrants can send them to W. r
Reko, care of the farm loan depart
ment of the Bank of North Dakota
it is stated in the Bismarck Tribune
of yesterday. Under the agreement
bv which a prominent financier in
the state agreed to buy 100000 OF
warrants, at 81 per cent of their face
value it was agreed that Mr.. Reko
would have the privilege OF office
space in the farm loan department OF
the bank through which to handle the
business. Money was placed in Bis
marck yesterday and Mr.. Reko Will
pay for warrants he purchases upon
receipt of them. This seems to US to
be a very fair price at this time for
these warrants and if any of our far
mers are in need of money they can
get some by standing just small dis
count which is no more than reason
able. Barnes county farmers who
want to cash in their hail warrants
should send them in to Mr.. Reko.

 Our story in language this week has been continued day after day. We have been reading of the Little King of the Golden River.'
 As measure of precaution and for their own financial benefit will the parents of the first grades please mark rubbers, rain hats, raincoats, etc, in some way so that the small owners can always identify their own prop erty. We have had no less than three disputed pairs of rubbers this week. It will take but few minutes and save endless time and trouble later on. Thank you.

 Three thousand Chicago school chil- dren told about their movie attend ance and tastes in response to ques tionnaire sent out by the former chair man of the Better Films Committee of the Illinois Council of Parent Teacher Associations. Elghty-seven per cent attended from one to seven or more shows every week.
 In order to determine the actual eff feet of the movies upon the school work of the pupils, teachers in six schools were asked to indicate the pu- pills who stood highest or lowest in scholarship and department in each room. The data compiled in these rep resentative districts of the city showed that the 275 best pupils used 393 tickets in one week, whereas the 275 poorest pupils used 503 tickets
 
 brought to light by the questionnaire is that the children in the poor tene- ment districts attend the movies as frequently as the children in the best residential sections. According to the data received, boys and girls in the six schools covered by the question naire spent s920 week on the movies, making a total for the year reach the astonishing figure of $46,000. - Normal Instructor.
 In Cordova our second grade pupils are not confirmed movie fans, but a few of our third graders go to any show and every show, and, too often, in the middle of the week when they need the sleep. Lack of sleep is not the only evil, however; the nerve strain is not good for sensitive chill dren.
 Late hours and too much excitement have direct effect on the department and school work of the pupils. The ones who are permitted to stay up late have the lowest marks in deport- ment. They are nervous, high strung" irritable, and lacking in self control. Their work is carelessly done because they have no "stick-to-it- iveness" and no reserve strength to fall back on, as the others have. These pupils have much ability and if their parents would give them the same chance Gin the matter of sleep) that the other children have, they would rapidly come to the front in scholarship.

DISCUSSION IN COMMITTEE
OVER TARIFF VALUATION

Washington, Feb. 20.-Differences be-
tween republicans of the senate finance
committee and the house ways and means
committee over tariff valuation principle
we're aired today at at hree hours Sc
cret conference without any concrete re-
suit The discussion is to be continued
tomorrow, but neither side tonight ap.
Deared hopeful of an early agreement.
The house committeeman, Representa-
tives Fordney, Longworth and Green,
who would constitute the majority con-
ferees for the house on any tariff bill
passed by the senate. held out strongly
at today's conference for the America n
valuation principle as written into the
house bill. This was resisted by the
senate committeeman, who, in undertak-
ing to re-write the house measure, long
ago abandoned that principle.
The conference was asked for by the
senate committee majority following the
declaration Saturday of Mr.. Fardney
that II the senate sent back to the house
bill earring a foreign valuation bas-
is as tentatively agreed upon by senate
committee republicans, the ways ant
means committee would re-write the
measure on the basis Of the American
valuation principle and the house woulc
return that to the senate.
Chairman McCunber said II was de
sirable to bring about an agreement be
tween the two committees If possible
before the bill was reported to the sen

DIsCoRD CAUSED BY
SMOKING OF COED STUDENTS

New York. Feb 20.-Co1urnbia Uni
versity officials tonight characterized as
'regrettable'' the action of the board of
education of the Nebraska State Normal
schools in banning the famous New York
college as a summer training school for
their teachers because of reports that
Columbia graduate students smoke Gig
arettes.
Charles T. MacFarlane, controller of
teachers college, issued formal state
ment taking issue with the announce
ment by Miss Margaret Fitzpatrick, pres
ident of the Whittier Hall Student body,
last.week to the effect that smoking in the
girls roms was prohibited. but merely
because smoke made the rooms too stuffy.
Smoking by women in Whittier Hall is
forbidden for moral not for architectural
reasons Dr. MacFarlane said.
1T is regretta,ble that state board of ed
uction should act upon stories not Of
ficially verified. Contrary to statements
accredited to Miss Margaret Fitzpatrick
who is president of the student body in
Whittier hall, the majority of girls do not
smoke
Since the publication of statement
which denies saying that the girls al
smoke, Miss Fitzpatrick has received scores
Of anonymous letters from all over the
country deploring the moral standard ot
women today. 1t has only been rule al
Whittier that smoking Is forbidden, hut
1t is impossible for US to follow every e.
about.
Besides, if a girl wishes 20 take tea
at a downtown hotel and smokes thee, az
hundreds of other women do, we cannot
prevent her. although we do not approve
of it. Miss fitzpatrick herself denies the
statement that smoking has been stopped
in Whittier Hall because It makes th'
rooms too smoky"
