tianson said that when North Dako-
ia was formed it was proposed to
give the license money from saloons
to the schools, if saloons were per-
mitted, but he declared the people
of the poor, pioneer state refused
to take money from such source
to educate the youth. In the early
days of the state, he said, gigantic
lottery scheme was offered by the
people of the state, as poor as it
was, pushed aside this basket Of
gold" because the lottery scheme
was wrong. No state, he said, has
more right to have pride in the past
than North Dakota.

forced to curtail curriculum. He
cited Bismarck as an example, saying
the city scbol board was required
to cut the expenditures $4,000
year, and to discontinue kindergarten
teaching, supervision of music and
some other subjects. Bismarck, he
said, has had $50 pupils from out:
side the district, which costs 500
per pupil per year for instruction.
The city receives $54 per year from
outside districts sending pupils in.
"The situation causes high school
districts to clamor for higher tut

Mill tax in each county, the proceeds
of which would be distributed among
the high schools of the counties, ac-

there was a two mill county tax levy

was raised it was reduced to one
