COMMENDABLE DESIRE

a LITTLE girl sees a doll, and in
= stantly there comes a yearning
in her heart TO clasp the doll TO her
breast and call ii her own.
She raises her delighted face TO her
mother and stretches out her chubby
hands in pleadings that cannot be de-
MED.
A boy Graves knife, and he holds
TO his wish until he gets il gratified.
Then he proceeds boy-fashion TO nick
things, which he has been forbidden
to cut and finally gashes his finger.
AS the girl and the boy grow older
their desires undergo a radical change.
With accumulated experience and
knowledge. they seek more substantial
possessions, good opinions, or a par
ticular place in the world where they
may become conspicuous and power
full.
And thus all through life their de-
slres grow. assume new forms, urge
them forward or backward, mold their
character for good or evfl and shape
their destiny.
The desire TO do good Is the most
ennobling thought man or woman can
possibly have.
1t is the only desire that does not
warp the soul with selfshness or de-
stroy faith.
To build up images and to yearn
for things which cap no Of no norma
nent use TO US or 10 our fellow beings,
is but a waste of energy which ought
TO be put TO better use.
President Harding longs TO bring
peace TO the world.

There Is a growing wish everywhere

What is your chief desire?
Is 1t something Of a selfish nature.

bankers, have returned from Linton,
where they attended a county bank
iers' meeting called by County Agent

E. D. Fogle was sent to Minnesota
last week to procure hay and the coun-
ty agent in cooperation with the

the various points in the county and
superintend the distribution. It is
estimated that Emmons needs for inn

400 cars Of hay tand 80 ears Of corn
in addition to seed.
A practical system was worked out
at this meeting whereby the needs can
be taken care Of expeditiously and suf-

CRAIG AND CASEY GR1LLED BY
ENGLERT

Collusion on the part Of Ray W..
Craig, former state manager Of the
Nonpartisan league, and p. M. Casey,
former president of the Equity Pack
ing company with p. j. Burfening, Of
the law firm Of Burfening & Conmy,
intended to net .'large personal gains
at the expense and detriment Of. the
packing company and its stockhold-
ers," was established in the case Of
the Equity Cooperative Packing com
pany vs. Burfening & Conmy, accord
ing to Judge M. ]. Englert Of the
district court.
In his decision announced last week
abrogating the contract by which ap-
proximately $500, 900 worth Of notes
taken by the company in payment Of
stock shares had been turned over to
the law firm for collection, Judge
Englert orders the return Of the
notes in question to the company.
In tracing SOME Of the deals invol-
we'd in the handling Of the Equity
Packing company notes, Judge Eng
lert brings in the Central Investment
company, . concern that he holds is
controlled by Mr.. Craig but which
had no legal existence.
Judge Englert further holds that
Mr.. Casey tried to induce the sec
retary (of the corporation) to make
material changes in the resolutions
to support. some prior unfavorable
deal or contract ri,
The Judge holds also that q certain
resolution appearing in the minute
book Of the corporation was placed
there without authority, and that Mr..
Casey had the minute book in his
possession at about the time the fake
resolution made its appearance.

LEGION MEETINGS
TO BE CALLED

Coincident with the nationwide
census being conducted by the Amer
lean Legion, in their effort to be of
assistance to all former service men.
the U. S. Veterans Bureau is send
ing contact officers through the ter
ritory of the Tenth District to COOP
crate with all organizations interest
ed in the ex-service mans problems,
with view to co-ordinating the work
Of the different organizations, SO as
to obtain maximum results.
The plan contemplated, which has
the endorsement of the American Le-
gion, calls for the appointment of
some person in each Legion Post ter
ritory, whose duty will be to act as
the representative of fthe Bureau in
his particular territory. It is pro-
posed that the Legion call meetings
of representatives Of the several vet
erans' organizations, and that some
person, not necessarily a Legion rep
resentative, be selected to act in the
capacity as above suggested. It is
not the intention of the Bureau. to
make the Legion the sole agency for
this movement in the field, but be-
cause of its wide organization, it has
been asked to sponsor the plan, and
to help the placing of the same in
operation.
The person appointec VIII assume
the responsibility of acting for the
Bureau in his territory, and will be
expected to supervise the prepara-
ton of the proper forms required by
the Veterans Bureau in the matter
of filing, claims for compensation, re-
endorsements or insurance, and the
forwarding of these forms to the
Sub-District Offices of the Bureau. It
is also expected that this officer shall
interest himself in obtaining en-
ployment opportunities for men who
have been trained under the direc-
tion of the Bureau.
Experience has shown that a large
number of former service men are
not acquainted with what the gov
eminent is offering them in the way
of compensation or vocational train
ing, and it is for this reason that the
Veterans Bureau is sending repre-
sentatves into the field to educate
and make contact with as many Of
these men as possible.

COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES

Do not forget to make out your f.
nal reports at the close of your term
and be sure to make TWO copies and
send them BOTH to this office. School
clerks must rot pay teachers their
last months salary until they receive
q copy of the final report signed by
the county superintendent. We shall
hold clerks strictly accountable for re-
ports. School officers, in the past few
years, have been very prompt with
their reports. but sometimes a teach
er gets her last months pay before
she should. # this report is not made
out, the superintendent must spend
considerable time getting the regis
ter and making out the report. Please
Sc that the teacher makes out the re-
port. e
If teachers are finishing up a term
started by someone else they should
make a report covering the WHOLE
term. It will put the data in better
shape for this cffice than if we had
a report from each teacher. We have
invariably excused short-time teach
ers from making out final reports on
this account. So it is up to the last
teacher. See that your report covers
tho whole term.
The County Superintendent's Annu-
al report left this office two weeks
ahead cf time last fall. This was due
chiefly to the hearty cooperation Of
school officers. Let tzus make this an
other efficient year.
Throughout the coun:y as whole
it is self evident that we have the
best corps Of teachers ever. True,
there are some poor ones, but there
are fewer Of this class than ever. 4
From the salary schedules received
to date it is evident that school boards
will pay the minimum, This is good
pay. High school graduates start out
in the one-room ruraI school at 500
and receive a raiseSof $50 for each
year Of experience until $11S is reach
ed. Very good pay. When the pres
ent county superintendent started
teaching in the country he received
s35 q month; and he was principal Of
the Linton schools, then having six
teachers, at $40 . month. Just what
beginners are now receiving in rural

CAHILL AND BLOOM
DISQUALIFIED
Failure Of Men to File Oaths Held
BY Executive to Disqualify Them

The offices OF j. !. Cahill as mem-
Der Of the state board Of administra-
tion and John Bloom as fish and game
commissioner have been declared va
cant by Governor R. A. Nestos.
The declaration is based upon the
alleged failure Of either Cahill or
Bloom to qualify for the Offices in the
manner provided BY law, in filing
their oaths of Office, and by this fail
ure they are held to automatically
have disqualified themselves from
holding the positions.
Governor Nestos has appointed Ell
ner T. Judd Of Cando to succeed Mr..
Bloom as fish and game commission
or. He has not appointed a success
or to Mr.. Cahill Since both Cahill
and Bloom held Soffiee on reappoint-
ments they were held over, under the

qualified. ss5 s. II,
II is reported that one or two 9th
er Nonpartisan Office holders have dis
qualified themselves from office BY
failure to qualify as provided BY law
and their Offices will be declared va
cant and successors appointed
The discovery Of the failure of Ca
hill to qualify for Office came, it is
understood, when a check-up Of rec
ords was being made preparatory Ia
fling former custer charges against
him. Some time ago Governor Nes-
tos demanded Cahill's resignation and
notified him custer charges would be
brought for alleged DEFICIENCIES in the
conduct Of his office. 4
