OTTO OLSONS CELEBRATE
SILVER WEDDING DAY

Tuesday, April goth, was the
twenty-ffth wedding anniver-
sary of Mr.. and Mrs. Otto Olson,
living near the Jackson school
house midway between Bruno
and Askov. A large number of
friends and relatives desiring to
make the day a memorable one
for the Olsons called at their
home in the evening and spent a
pleasant and profitable evening.
About rs people were present,
10 or more of them being from
Sandstone. Several short talks
were given, amongst the speak
ers being Senator Adolph S. Lar
son of Sandstone, cousin of
Mrs. Olson. A number of songs
were sung and refreshments
were enjoyed. The honored cou-
pie was presented with a bag of
silver, there being S31.
Mr.. and Mrs. Olson were mar
ried at Minneapolis and lived
the first two or three years of
their married life at Sandstone.
They then moved onto the Dan
Nelson homestead, their present
location, and have lived there
ever since with the exception of
two years spent at Cripple Creek,
Colorado, about 13 or IA years
ago. Their two children, Miss
Opal and little Dorothy, were
present at the celebration as
were also Mrs. Olson's aged par,
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Dan Nelson
who make their home with the
Olsons on their old homestead.
The American joins with their
friends in extending congratula-
tions and the wish for many
more years of happiness.

life. Reading is never so enjoy
liable as after one has worked
with his hands while. Nothing
but reading cracks the nerves
and makes the children flee for
safety.
No doubt about it, we shall
have to revise our ideas of what
constitutes education and of the
relationship between completion
of a course in college and the
acquisition of money from indu-
stry. There is no relationship
between college and industry.
College stands for appreciation,
industry for production and the
ability to appreciate is not the
ability to produce. Some of the
smaller colleges know this, Yale
is apparently beginning to SUI
spect it, and all of those who are
now going to college will later
find it out to their sorrow.
The American desire for sue
cess is commendable, as is the
American desire to learn, which
is but another way of saying
that American colleges are de-
stined to undergo a great change.
| They will be more like technical
schools and less like universities.
The accent will be placed upon
production, with appreciation Sc
cond. Every student will be
taught how to do some useful
productive thing, and while he
is learning it he will be taught
how to appreciate the many
things in the world that have no
sort of relationship to the in
dustrial art he learns. Some of
these arts can be taught as well
in college as anywhere else, but
railroading and deep-sea naviga-
ton are not of this number. Col
lege will then have it's great
value because it will be teaching
the young both how to produce
and how to appreciate, how to
make each a part of their daily
lives. That is life and nothing
else is.
We can already see the cur
rents flowing in this direction.
On the one hand we see great
industrial organizations few
at any rate offering cultural
education to their employees by
means of night schools. These
schools are but a beginning, yet
they are a beginning and they
prove the recognition by both
employers and employees of the
need for both kinds of education.
And we also see technical schools
and few small colleges that
teach students both how to work
and how to enjoy the world in
which they live.
The colleges that are still pro-
viding general courses" without
apparent recognition of the fact
that the first necessity of life is
! to know how to do something
useful, are largely wasting their
time and the time of their stu
dents. And what an army of
such students there is! They are
trying to learn how to make mo-
ney when all that colleges know
about money is that rich men
give it to them.

POLE EXPLORERS
REVISE PLAN ON
FUEL TRANSPORT
Decide on Dog Power in
Lieu of Motor Sleds;
Will Delay Flights.

By United Press Leased wire
ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Mar. s.
Plans of the wilkins polar flight ex-
pedition have teen revised as the
result of unforeseen delays encoun-
tered in moving supplies to Point
Barrow. according to information
received here today from Fair
banks.
Leaders of the venture have de-
cided to abandon further efforts to
transport gasoline and other equip
ment to the northern most shore of
Alaska by motor sleds. Instead. all
available dog teams in the vicinity
of Tanana were being summoned.
1t is estimated it will require
about 40 days for the Is tons of fuel
and other supplies to be taken to
Point Barrow. the hopping off place.
See Two Months Delay
This will delay the actual start
ing time of the flight to late in May
instead of in March as originally
scheduled.
The Fokker planes are now being
assembled in Fairbanks under the
direction Of Lieutenant Carl B. Eiel-
son. 1t is proposed that the flight
will follow the Alatna Pass route
over the Endicott range.
There was no confirmation of ru-
mors that the final flight for the
pole might be abandoned.
1t is said, however, that Lieuten-
ant Eielson may refuse to try the
flight during the foggy midsummer
season.
