RESOLUTION

Whereas in the wisdom of an all
wise providence it has seemed best to
call from our midst our brother and
fellow member, Mr.. John Stafford, a
man among men, whose upright life
and kindly ways endeared him to all
who knew him and caused his death
to be a personal sorrow to each one
in the community. Mr.. Stafford
lived in the community for many
years and always took an active part
in any movement for the betterment
of the town; in the church, the school,
and in the village;
Therefore we, the Board of Educa-

WHAT is YOUR SON GOING
TO DOs

Early in September thousands !, of
boys and young men in the state of
Minnesota will have to decide
whether they wish to return to school
or "get into the harness and earn a
living"
Further education is desirable
thing to have, but all of us reach
a point beyond which, ip the way of
general education, we may not feel
justified Ito go.
We must then either go to work to
earn our living, or give consideration
to secure training in some special
line which will better fit us to earn
our living.
A distinction is made between gem
eral education such as that given In
regular high school and college
courses and training. which is
specifically prepared to increase our
wage-earning ability.
Each year more boys and men are
turned away from the white collar
jobs" into overall jobs" In the first
place, white collar jobs frequently
pay less than overall jobs. In the
second place so many boys and young
men are looking for white collar
jobs that the market is flooded; on
the other hand so many boys and
young men turn away from an over
all job that there is getting to be an
increased demand for boys and men
who can properly fill overall jobs"
If your son plans to become far
mer or to raise stock or to go into
the dairy business, he can profitably
give consideration to the agricultural
schools operated by the state.
If he wishes to take up business
career, he can profitably give con-
sideration to- commercial courses,
either in high school or in business
college.
If he wishes to go into industry as
ia printer, automobile mechanic, car
penter, machinist, craftsman, cleo
trician, or sheet metal worker, he can
well afford to give consideration to
the training offered at Dunwoody., /
This training institution was do
mated to the residents of the state of
Minnesota by the late William Hood
Dunwoody and wife; this school is
supported by an endowment of over
five million dollars and offers train
ing to the boys and men of the state
of Minnesota. (Boys from outside the
state may be admitted under special
arrangements.) -
There is an increased demand all
over the country for properly train
ed boys and men in industrial lines.
For example, the printing trade has
welcomed skilled hand compositors,
pressmen, and linotype operators. The
school makes no claims that it can
turn out skilled printers. However,
our experience shows that we can
give boys and men highly efficient
training which will form foundation
for future success in the printing
trade.
Each year an increased number of
boys and men from all over the state;
of Minnesota attend Dunwoody Insti-
tute. The larger number of these
boys and men, after securing training,
return to their home town and go to
work; the letters from these boys and
men indicate that increased success
and increased satisfaction on the job
follows in the line of this training.
Boys and young men may profitably
follow the advice of their parents
and the advice of successful men in
their own community.
Dunwoody Institute is pleased to
offer suggestions and advice to those
who may write in.

LIKES THE IDEA
(From the Alaska Weekly)

At recent meeting of the Seward Chamber of Commerce Judge Cecil H. Clegg put forth the suggestion that a sta tue of William H. Seward be erected in AL aska and the further idea that the city of Seward was the proper point for such tri- bute to the man whose foresight was re- sponsible for the best investment the Unit ed States ever made.
 We like the idea. Alaska should cer- tainly have, within its confines statue of Seward and the city of Seward is the place for it. Such a monument should, of course, be erected by territorial wide cooperation. The cities of Alaska are rapidly outgrowing the provincial attitude which has in times past often initiated against the accomplish ment of such matters, and we believe that Alaskans everywhere would gladly con- tribute.
Seward daily gateway., 1926-06-03
IGNORING SEWARD
(From the Juneau Empire)

The movement of the Seward Chamber of Commerce to raise funds thru Alaska and among former Alaskans now residing ln the States will probably strike a popular chord. It is fitting that Alaska should erect some memorial in honor of the statesman who was mainly instrumental in bringing in bringing about the acquisition of the Terri tory by the United States and certainly no site could be more appropriate than the town which bears his name.
 The movement, while formally fostered by the Seward business mems organization, really was originated by Judge Cecil H. Clegg, of Fairbanks He was recent guest of the Seward Chamber while he was hold ing special term of court in that town. On that occasion he suggested it was time that Alaskans erected a monument to Stewards s memory, saying:
 In all the Territory of Alaska there
 is no permanent monument or statue
 to commemorate the memory of Secre-
 tary Seward, who bought Alaska for
 the United States from Russia on
 March 30 1867, for $7,300000. Seward,
 which is named after the Secretary,
 strikes me as the strategic location for
 such memorial it being the gateway
 to interior Alaska, and believe it
 would be a very simple matter to se-
 cure the cooperation of every citizen in
 Alaska to contribute to a fund for
 permanent memorial within the con-
 fines of Seward
 Judge Clegg was not mistaken about the public support which the movement will be cordially given in the Territory. It will probably take some time to carry out the suggestion to a successful finish but there is no danger that it will languish from lack of support

Over thousand words came in today about Comdr Mobiles flight over the Pole and not word of description of the pole. The reticence of every man who has ever seen the pole is such as to arouse the suspi- cion that there is no such thing. Perhaps it's only state of mind.

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
Security of Preferred Stocks.
ny GEORGE r. HUGHES.


II is the fashion just now to decry
the merit of the preferred stock as
an investment The reason. as al
ready stated in the preceding article.
is that preferred stocks share in the
risks of the business in that the diVi-
dend on them is payable only out OF
earnings. hut do not participate in
the profits which accrue to the hold
era of the common alone.
There is some Justice in this indic..
ment. but 1t is not the whole story
In the first place there are manN
preferred atocks which as far as
safety of income is concerned are
Just as sound as bonds Simply by
way of illustration may he mentioned
United States Steel preferred and
General Electric special, which rs
preferred stock In effect, though not
In name Dividends on stocks of tins
grade are as sure as anything well
can he in the field of industrial in
vestments. They vary In market
price in response to conditions which
affect bonds In the same group are
railroad preferred issues. such as Nor
folk and Western preferred. AtchfSon
preferred and Union Pacific preferred.
1t will he observed that all these are
shares of corporations which nave
demonstrated earning power over
long rcriod of years sufficient to cover
preferred dividend requirements many
times over.
From stocks Of this high grade
there is every variation down to is
sues which must he rated AZ specu-
lationS. The point to he noticed. how
ever. is that nearly always the rating
depends upon this matter of season
ing'-that is tn say. the ability to go
on having dividends through good
wears and had alike. There are many
prcfer,ed stocks which cover their
dividends by wide margins. hut which
sell compa IA lively low In the market
hecaure the time elapsed has not
been long enough to make the test
conslusive. Results ct one or two
wears are not sufficient.
II takes more evidence to convince
the investor than it does the specu-
iator. and we often find common
stock held in high favor and selling
al a very high price and so yielding
small return. while the preferred issue
of the same corporation sells Compar-
ativelv low and yields A large return.
all because investors make up their
minds and wisely SO, much more
slowly than do the spectators. Now
II often happens in these cases that
the timidity of the investor is not
justified by the result. but in other
instances it is just the other way.
In the long run the conservative
course pays.
