HOW HE DID 1T

In this age of the automobile when
horses and barns are almost obsolete,
children in the cities rarely see any
thing resembling barn, unless am
automobile comes chugging out of it.
My small son is no exception to the
rule, and his excitement ran high
when one day an old gentleman who
still owns horse and buggy took him
for drive. =
Upon arriving home sonny explained
in detail and with much gusto, the
various maneuvers the old gentleman
went through before they started ON
their excursion. He said
"Mr. Blank grabbed the horse and
dragged him out of the garage and
tangled him onto the wagon and then
we went for ride in the horse.''

OVER 200 CHILDREN
IN SCHOOL PROGRAM
AskOv Public School Patriotic
Program ON WashingtOn's Birth
day Was Well Rendered, and
Enthusiastically Received.

Never before has the Askov school
attempted a united public program;
possibly no audience in the D. B. S.
hall has listened to so large a num-
Der taking part. A little less than
800 pupils are enrolled at the present
time; somewhat over two hundred
took a more or less active part.
AS noted elsewhere in this issue,
where the entire program appears, the
opening number was the singing of
America. AS a whole the program
was decided success from start to
finish; every part was well presented
and well received, while the shifting
of the various groups took place
with the minimum of commotion.
Naturally some parts of the pro-
gram appealed more to the audience
than other parts; THAT does not neces-
sarily mean that these were rendered
less we'll, but because of less inherent
appeal. The dramatization by second
and third grades took exceptionally
we'll; when the spectators thought the
large milk bottle must be empty,
out popped one more. No doubt this
number taught it's lesson not only to
those taking part, but also to those
listening and looking on. The flag
drill by the first graders was also
striking; the children worked through
the drill and songs with life and
spirit. AS a, rule the smaller chill
dren make a stronger appeal to an
audience as they can easier forget
| self, be natural and unaffected and
enter more wholly into the spirit
1.-THE Making of the First Flag"
| presented in very vivid form,
brought to the spectators the early
history of "Old Glory. Estates
Growing Washington" with forty
eight children on the stage at once
demonstrated the ease and smoOthness
with which the program was carried
out.
Space and time will not permit a
detailed account of each number, al
though each merits mention;> but the
song by the Boys quartette and the
rendering of Lincoln's Gettysburg
Address" are deserving of special
mention.
The makeup of the program pre-
sented balanced whole with about
equal prominence to both our ma
tional heroes, George Washington and
Abraham Lincoln, and each selection
was fittingly chosen. Very little time
was used for practice; each grade had
practised its part by itself. No small
credit for the success of the program
is certainly due the teachers.
The program appropriately closed
with SAmerica the Beautiful" The
school children left the hall in the
same orderly manner with which
they entered. There was not a dull
moment from the first number to the
last 1t is safe to say that the audi
ence felt that the afternoon was very
well spent; furthermore there is no
doubt that more patriotism, love of
country, and devotion to the duties of
citizenship can be in the children
by preparing and presenting such pro-
grams than by dismissing school for
the day. When school is closed on
our big days, many persons forget
what it is all about. There is at least
a slight feeling abroad that the school
could appropriately present one or
two such programs each year.

SOME COPY LEFT OUT

The past two weeks the American
has been swamped with copy for pub
LEGATION, hard pressed for time and
space, and hence some material has
been delayed and some omitted en-
tirely. Some school notes suffered
the fate of being left out entirely.
1t is the intentions of the publishers
to give as much time and space to
this material as possible, but some
weeks it is found necessary to omit.
By writing briefly and to the point,
on one side of the paper, and good
clear writing, it gives greater assur-
ance of being published.

M ETAL SU RVEY
 IS REQUESTED
WORLDWIDE INVESTIGATION OF SUPPLY SOUGHT BY INDUS
 TRIAL LEADERS

WASHINGTON, June 8. (P-Star- tied by the rapid depletion of many important metals, leading industrial and technical men have appealed to President Coolidge to have the gov ernment conduct a worldwide survey of mineral deposits.
 It is claimed that such survey is vii tally needed in order than American industry may know whether the SUD- ply of certain minerals is adequate to continue present systems of manufac- ture, or whether it will be necessary to find substitutes.
 It is known that the President is giving the subject serious considera- tion and it is anticipated that the next budged will include at least $50,O00 to commence the survey.
 Among the miners required for na- tional defense purposes include man. ganese, mercury, tin, antimony and several other metals of lesser com mercial importance.
 The steel industry depends almost entirely on foreign sources for it's manganese, and essential composent of most steel, importing more than 6O0,OOO tons annually. Principal known deposits are in Brazil, South ern Africa and Soviet Georgia.
 Technical men Relieve the man ganese problem is one requiring i'm mediate action in either locating new sources of supply, applying conserva- tion methods or locating a substi- stute This problem was the chief topic discussed a the recent annual  meeting of the American Mining and Metallurgical Engineers held in Cleve- land, Ohio
 Next to manganese the tin situa- ton is giving the most concern. Al tho the United States consumes more than half the tin used in the world, the domestic supply is almost negli- gible Bureau of Mines statistics show American production of tin last year was limited to about three tons produced in Alaska as a by-product of placer gold mines.

MARRIAGE IN GERMANY
RECALLS WAR LEGEND

of Slain Woman Spy.

BERLIN, January 1.-The marriage
of DR.. Arnold Kalle, former chief of
the German government press divi-
sion, to Erika Glaessner, one or Ber-
Inns most popular actresses, recalls
a romantic World War legend in
volving the famous snake dancer,
Mata Har.
During the World War the beautiful
Mata Hari acted as German spy and
travelled between Spain, France and
Germany until she was accidentally
found by the French authorities. She
was court -martialed and shot in the
Park of Vincennes in 1917
Wartime legend had it that she was
the sweetheart of Maj. Kalle. He Wig
orously denied all connection with the
snake dancer, but his marriage has re-
vived Berlin gossip of the legend.
