The entire sixth grade of st. Anne's
parochial school memorized '"The
Americans Creed" a powerful and in
spring appeal to American ideals,
during American Education Week. 1t
was written by one of the sisters who
teaches one Of the higher grades, and
was recited each day during the week.
The creed follows:
II believe in the United States of
America as a government of the peo-
pie, by the people, for the people,
whose just powers are derived from
the consent of the governed; democ-
racy in republic; sovereign. nation
of many sovereign states; a perfect
union, one and inseparable, established
upon those principles of freedom,
equality, justice and humanity for
which American patriots sacrificed
their lives and fortunes. I, therefore,
believe it is my duty to my country to
obey its laws; to respect it's flag, and
to defend it against all enemies"

shock suffered by them in the French
trenches.
'"The American Legion is the only
body which is taking an active stand
for justice to disabled men, and on the
Legion will fall the responsibility of
seeing that Congress does it's duty"

LEGION
WEEKLY LETTER

There is great need for monograph
records for the Western Washington
Hospital at Steilacoom, Wash, the
American Legion auxiliary members
were informed when they recently took
delicacies to- the former service men
at the hospital. Twenty dozen dough-
nuts, cigarets, canned fruit and three
boxes Of apples were distributed.
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1922-12-28

Asserting that thousands of soldiers
went into the front-line trenches un-
able to shoot the rifles. they were car
rying, Alvin Owsley, national COM
mander of the American Legion, made
a plea for preparedness to eliminate a
similar situation In the next war, at a
national gathering of Legion state
adjutants here.
Mr.. Owsley urged the retaining of
sufficient Army and Navy so that
it would not be necessary to rely upon
other nations while the United States
is training it's armed forces in any
future conflicts.
.G.L. Folbre, of Dallas, adjutant OF
the Texas department, also drew the
attention of the Legion men to the
fact that unframed troops were sent
to the front line during the World
War.
"While serving at the front with the
32nd division, I transferred men to
replacement troops and saw them 60
into the front line trenches and shot
down when they could have protected
themselves had they been trained even
in the use of rifles" Mr.. Folbre SAID:
"Many of these men had been drafted
into service between six weeks and
two months before they were rushed
into action"
The views of the Texas Legion otfi-
cial were supported by Austin A. Pet
erson, Wisconsin adjutant, who urged
the adjutants ''to realize the serious
ness of the preparedness situation at
this time, particularly in view OF the
ever increasing danger Of the Turkish
and Near East question"
Other Legion speakers urged the
adjutants to encourage voluntary eI,-
listment in the Army in their states
and to advocate military training on
3 larger scale in the high schools, col
|leges, universities and physical train
ing in the grade schools. It was assert
ed that the enlisted strength of the
regular United States Army at this
time is even below the latest figure

HAWAIIAN VOLCANO
~, RESUMING ACTIVITY

Hilo, Island OF Hawaii, T. H.-The
great volcano of Klauea, on this ISL
and, which has been dormant tenn
porarily following q sensational e1-
plosive eruption in March,, 1921, has
resumed activity, according to T. Al
Jaggar. government volcanologist,
whose observatory is at the brink Of
the volcanoes abyss.
Starting with the formation Of a
glowing cone 600 feet down within
the walls ofgthe crater, q stream Of
molten lava has been pouring steadily
into~the depths below. while a more
recent flow has occurred in the form
Of an uprush Of gaseous lava. which
violently agitated the Lake formed by
the upper cascade.
Within ter days the lava arose from
200 feet within the inner throat of tho
crater and is rising at the rate Of
about five feet a day. DR.. Jaggar an
ticipates that the liquid lava will in
crease greatly al the December SOL
atice approaches, while from other in
dications. there appears to be a strong
possibility Of an outbreak of Mauna
Loa, a $4,000 foot high,( snow-crown-
ed neighbor of Kilauea. Mauna Loa Is
active at intervals, approximating
about nine years. Mauna Loa, the
greatest active volcano in the world,
also 10 the largest island mountain
mass in the universe. DR.. Jaggar said.

Dean E.J. BabcOck8Tells
Proper Use And Storing OF
VI North Dakota Ignite Coal
PAGE TEN

The best means Of storing and
burning Ignite coal are described by
Dean p. y. Babcock of the college Of
engineering at the state university, in
" pamphlet just iEsued by the board
lot railroad commissioners as fuel d.
trectorsN and distributors for North
Dean Babcock states in this
ltFeatise that Ignite can be burned
With fairly good G in the or
binary cooking stove or range and in
many types Of heating stoves, but that
It ID more difficult to burn 1t satisfafe
torily in self-feedinga stoves, especially
IL It IL not broken into rather small
Jumps. A good type of air tight
\ stove, or a soft coal stove, having
y plenty Of capacity will generally han
die the Ignite to very good advantage,
The points out.
4 Continoing, Dean Babcook says:
sLignite also can be used in most hot
water and steam heating plants. In
such cases It works best in plants
largo crate areas. The CRATES them
solves should also be rather nne and
considerable are should be taken to
keep the CRATES fairly clean. There
should be a good stack draft.
Must Fire Ofuen-
ut will be necessary to IRE either
heating plants or stoves more ire
Quently than with anthracite. soft
coal. or ordinary coke. because the
fuel value Of the Ignite in its natural
Estate Is less than the same weight OF
fordinary anthracite or bituminous
local. The firing will usually have to
be about twice as often a. with IN,
tthfaoite. With reasonably well

and Q half to two tons Of Ignite, de-
pending upon the quality Of the fuel
used, will DO equivalent in heating

Tho tendency Of Ignite to slack
down when exposed to the weather
lean tbe lessened by observing proper
fqare in storing 1t, according to Dean
kbabcook. The coal should be stored

How 10 Get Rid of Poultry Pests
More than forty kinds of lice
infest farm poultry, says K. c..
Sullivan, entomologist at the u
University of Missouri, but all
may be killed by inexpensive
treatment. Poultry is subject to
attack also by mites and 10
some extent by ticks and fieas,
though the latter are of slight
Importance in this state.
Poultry lice stay on the fowls
practically all the time, there
fore the only effective treat
ments are those which are APP
piled directly to the birds. Up
to the present time sodium flu
bride, a white powder which can
be purchased at most drug
stores, is the cheapest and most
effective remedy for all kinds
of poultry lice. In using it,
small quantities of powder, held
between the thumb and fore
finger, are busted among the
