Revives Barn Dance
To ROut Depression

Clay Center. Kansas, Oct. Co.
R-Memory Of a time when the
pioneers recreation was as mea-
ger as his income suggested to
William Tempero, dirt farmer, a
plan of attack which has routed
his depression.
His musings conferred about the
old barn dance, one of the few
and simple pleasures of the
prairie folk. He recalled they
rode miles to shuttle rough boots
over rougher boards in the
rhythm of scraping :iddlers.
This" said the farmer, seems
to be the age of revivals-old val
ues, old songs, old customs, old
overcoats - why not the barn
dance?"
Accordingly Tempero made
slight Encouragement Of his live
stock. Dobbin and Blossom were
moved from the barn as step
toward moving the wolf from the
door.
A dance floor was built. Cam
vas was hung from the walls. Gas
stoves were installed.
So that no scarcity of funds
might wreck his project, Tempero
placed two bins in his barnyard.
Into these the rural youth was
privileged to heave a sack of
wheat. or two sacks of corn, and
proceed to the dance floor with
his lady.

and revel in the waltz.

TEACHERS COLLEGES
REPORT INCREASED
1882 ENR0LLMENTS
Students Bodies At Agricultural
College and University
Shrink, However

Enrollments at four of North Da-
kota's institutions of higher learn
ing surpassed those Of last year, a
decrease was noted in the registra-
ton at the university and agricul-
tural college. and another college re-
manned about the same as 1881, ac-
cording to a survey covering the fall
quarter registrations.
Figures for the state normal
schools at Minot and Dickinson
showed registrations this year ex-
ceeded the 1891 total. Minot passed
the TOO mark for the first time in
the history of the school while Dick
inSon reported an enrolment of 465,
to send its enrolment to its highest
peak In history, topping by 81 the
previous high reached last fall.
Available statistics from the Ellen
dale Normal and Industrial school
and the Wahpeton School of Science
indicate record enrolment for the
fall quarter there. Glendale had
more than 300 students register for
the fall quarter the opening day, set
ting a new record for first-day regis
tration. A new fall enrolment rec
ord was established on the opening
day at Wahpeton. and estimates,
based on the first-day registration
last year, bring the 1892 total to ATS
as compared with AS last year.
With 297 students beginning class
work at the state teachers college at
Mayville, school officials believed
late registrants would bring the to-
tai above that of last year. A marked
increase was seen in the number of
senior college students.
The University of North Dakota at
Grand Forks and the state agricul-
tural college at Fargo both reported
drops IN the number OF enrollments
Tor the quarter. The university had
l.468 students registered, 121 less
than in 1881, and the Fargo institu-
ton, with 1926 registrations, had 154

with all its tangled issues was fairly
within the understanding of the unlet-

Washington reached such colossal pro-
portions that he himself was moved to
record his own amazement in a letter
that he wrote to Thomas Jefferson on
July 6, 1796:

after the crises have passed.
OUR most abused President was George
Washington; he suffered far more
than even Abraham Lincoln. The reason
is obvious after one has examined the
whole record. 1t was by no means GER
tain that the 13 colonies which had won
their independence from Great Britain
would survive as nation. They were
many times in just as precarious a con-
dition as during the Winter of Valley
Forge Internal disputes wracked them
and foreign friendships dissolved. The
very nature of the experiment upon
which they had been launched was con-
trary to the habits of thought of many
citizens as well as European statesmen.

dents have not been criticized very Sc
verely nor subjected to much personal
abuse. Our two greatest national heroes,
George Washington and Abraham Lin
coin, suffered so much more of both than
any other of our Chief Executives that
comparisons would be absurd.
With this record before us we might
construe the facts in the spirit of par
tisanism and rush to the conclusion that
Herbert Hoover is well on the way to be-
ing canonized. 1t is too soon for any such
prophecy. His policies are still in the
making and his major administrative
acts have not yet withstood the test of
time. All that the record discloses is
comprised in the statement already
made: When great crises threaten the
national safety the President of the
United States will catch hell, to put it in
the language of the streets. What his

Grover Cleveland runs second, but no one

In order to arrive at this conclusion it
was necessary to make a study of both
adverse criticism and abuse of occupants
of the White House over long period of
years. This led to a very interesting dis
closure that can be stated in a few
words: Abuse and adverse criticism of
the President of the United States wax

the ineptness of the man for his heavy
responsibilities, but in proportion to the
threat against the Nations security at
the time he serves.
