wAsHNIGToE ATTITUDE IS
 IN OPPOSITION TO RUSSIAN

Washington. Dec. S-CBy the A. P.) Whether the Washington government Is prepared to participate in an inter national commission to control the Turkish strsas, as proposed by Lord Curzon for the allies at Lausanne, Is a question still to be answered. It can be said definitely. however, that so far the United States does not stand com mitted to accept such parsicioation should the international commission program be carried out.
 Presumably the American attitude .n that regard would be determined only after full consideration of the specihs proposals of the allies. There has nct been time as yet fof any oflclal inter change with Ambassador Child at Jau- same on this point E The ambassadors statement of the American position e to the Turkish straits Is understood to be an amplif- cation of the outline of the. govern ments policy. transmitted to him since the conference. began While no CO., ment was available today at the stnte department on any aspect ot deveioo- @ents at Lausanne. t was apuarent

THE INSURANCE THAT LAPsED

A World War Veteran died at
the age of twenty-six in a Middle
Western city month ago leaving
his widow and his baby son to face
the world without funds. He had
permitted his War Risk Insurance
policy to lapse several months be-
fore his death he had never re-
newed it.
The most poignant fact about
this tragedy is the failure of this
ex-service man to reinstate his in
surance before his fatal illness and
thus insure his family an estate of
$4,000 which was the amount of
the policy upon which he had paid
premiums during the war.
He had been seriously i'll for a
year, suffering from disease whose
during his eighteen months in
France. The regulations governing
both War Risk term insurance and
converted insurance provided that if
a person is suffering with a disease
or injury incurred in or aggravated
by active military or naval service
during the World War, he may re-
instate his policy provided that he
is not totally and permanently dis
abled, by the payment of all prem
iums in arrears, together with in
terest at the rate of per cent per
year compounded annually from the |
iue date of each premium.
This provision, remember, applies |
20 men who are suffering from dis
Ease or injury-men who would be
'efused new policies or reinstate-
nents of term or converted insur-
nee may not be made after a man

the week of Sept % to Oct 1, as
its observance throughout the state.
In his proclamation the Governor
says:-"Each community during
that week should make a survey of
its resources and the present farm
ing methods, and make plans to in
crease the farmers income by en-
couraging diversity of production
and by converting greater portion
of farm crops into meat and dairy
products: Since all our people are
dependent upon the prosperity of
the farmer, civic organizations and
commercial clubs should cooperate
with the farm bureaus in arranging
meetings to promote better farm
ing" Minnesota has given special
attention to dairying in connection
with diversified farming and conse-
quently leads the nation with re-
suits from the practice. Mime
sofas dairy products Melted the
state an income of 100000 in
1921, according to statistics conf
piled by the state dairy and food
commissioner. Sales from cows and
calves were not included. The COM
bined wealth produced by corn,
wheat, oats, barley, rye, flax, pota-
toes and hay was estimated at
$171 ,000,0 or $1,O0O,O0O less than
the wealth created by the dairy
cows of Minnesota. Where such. a
condition prevails the sting of hard
times will not be felt. Governor
Preus's official proclamation calls at
tention to this as follows: SIN
periods of low prices, just as in
seasons of poor yields, farmers who
practice diversified farming to the
highest degree suffer the least.
There has been ample evidence of
this during the business depression
of the last two years"

WHY SHOULD A BOY
co TO HIGH SCHOOLS
(By Norman Hoelzel.l

LIFE Is ONE b1G OCaoOL.
From the minute we open our
eyes to the time when We draw our
last breath, we learn and learn, and
learn again.
sFrom the time the baby reaches
for plaything, and draws it to its
mouth, thus measuring distance-to
the time when the old man learns
the value of spectacles because his
eyes grow dinl-we learn.
So human beings have learned
through the ages by experiences
and experiments.
The knowledge of what they
learned they passed on to the young
er generation.
Since Gutenberg invented print
ing all the wisdom. OF the ages mas
been gathered in books. They gave
in these books, what man could
never learn in a lifetime of study
and experience, and SO our books OF
today contain what wise men have
learned and gathered through CEN
turtles of study.
Now the boy goes to grade school
and learns the fundamentals. Some
have to stop there-They are the
breadwinners of the family and cam
not go on. But the boy who has
the opportunity to go on, should do
so by all means.
To him it is given to have all the
wisdom of the centuries in what
ever field he chooses.
STUDY broadens his outlook on
life; it fits him to cope with adj
versities. 1t teaches him self-con-
troll; teaches him that to have a
great mind he has to give it the
foundation of a fine physical and
moral being.
Being well educated he is not
tied down to one thing. He can take
up and make success of whatever
life offers him. 1t teaches him
perseverance, for the more he learns
the more he realizes how little he
really knows, and no matter how
great he will be among men he vii!
also see how with all wisdom, all
his learning, infinitesimally small he
is in the incomprehensible wonder
and beauty of creation and this will
teach him to be humble.
The man with an education knows
no boundaries. He can do things |
and that which he does not know he
acquires for he has learned to
think, to concentrate, to study, to
persevere until he succeeds.
Education takes him out of the
rut of the common place and makes
drudgery pleasure, for he knows
the why and wherefore. 1t opens
vast fields to the minds eye, in pur-
suit of which he can believe in hap
piness and contentment.
Furthermore, education is the best
for worlds peace, for

. :
Men in good health are not re-
quired to pay up all back premi-
ums-they need only pay premiums
covering two months to have their
insurance reinstated.
Ordinary prudence dictates the
necessity of every ex-service man
knowing just what his government
insurance rights are. Six hundred
thousand veterans are now carrying
government policies. How many of
the remaining 100000 were car
rying policies but let them lapse,
are familiar with their own rights?
If any ex-service man has per-
mitted his insurance to lapse, he
should Immediately get in touch
with the Service Officer of bis Le-
gion Post or write direct to the u.
S. Veterans Bureau, c. D. Hubbard,
District Manager, Minneapolis, Min
nesota and find out just the condi-
tions on which his insurance can be
reinstated.

under its banner brotherhood will
come into being which will circle
the world which knows no color, no
creed; where mind will rule matter;
and where such minds are the
guardians of our destines-inhuman,
bloody wars will be thing of the
past.
Education has been the light
through the centuries; the torch
that power to span the continents,
harness the rivers, and conquer the
air and the oceans.
Therefore every boy should avail
himself of the opportunity TO learn
by going to high school.
