Whether or not the booklet is
sound in its assumptions and con-
illusions it is we'll calculated to stir
up thought on some very fundamen-
tai educational problems. 1t is the
work of Dean F. B. Taylor, of James
town College, whose department is
Social Science. He was formerly for
number Of years head of the de-
partment of Education in that insti-
tuition. In a predatory note Some
what Personal" he says:
There is, of course, no pretense
that this thin pamphlet presents a
system of either mental hygiene or
mind training, but it is hoped that
as far as it goes it points in the di-
rection of a combination of those two
ideas. 1t is purely an incidental by
product of the classroom. If any
reader is surprised at the elementary
nature of some of the directions and
explanations, beg him to consider
what might be revealed by an equal
degree of frankness on the part of
teachers generally. There are. how
ever, special conditions in North Da-
kota which may properly be men

high schools in the state are twenty
years younger than the State. which
is itself young. No wonder then il

BISMARCK AND THE FUTURE

body will be talking about the great
change in Bismarck. The different.
clubs and societies will enlarge them
selves by taking in the progressive
farm-owners of Burleigh county if
not on equal footing at least as So
cial members. These clubs should be
organized so that the questions per-
tanning to Bismarck be settled by
the citizens of Bismarck while the
questions pertaining to the country
outside of Bismarck be settled by all
the members Of the clubs With the
great mass of farmer folks taking n
more active interest there should be
no reason why great paved roads
extending north, east and south
across the county could not be made.
We have road to the west and let
this be an example.
Then physically the city would
grow by leaps and bounds. With
these great paved roads would come
more travel and the sphere of trade
influence would enlarge enormously.
Then there would be a demand for
power from new mills and manufac-
turing establishments and many high
tension power lines would be seen
extending from Bismarck to the
north and west where power can be
obtained from great mines that arc
opened or would be opened. Electri-
city in the form of power and ligh:
can be transferred much cheaper
than coal and then the cheapest
forms of coal may be used to pro-
duce this power and light. So let US
all be boosters and remember the
people will obtain success in porpor-
tion as the city grows.
Be Booster for Bismarck.
