MOVES EARTH"

Have you noticed any change at the
assembly hall? Cooperation so far
has been fine and a lot of work has
been completed. We are nearly
through hauling and leveling dirt.
We need lots of gravel. Some gravel
has been donated but we need some
trucks and men to move it. If any
one can spare little time Friday and
Saturday, Sept. 2 and 3, it will be
greatly appreciated.
Labor day will be the big day. On
that day the final raking and planting
of trees and shrubs will be done.
Will you help? We can also use a
considerable amount of black dirt.
If you can spare a load it will be
greatly appreciated.

ASKOV SCHOOL NOTES

The Askov school will open its ses-
sions for the year on Tuesday morn
ing, Sept. 6, at 9 o'clock. The MORN
ing will be occupied in running
through the schedule on a reduced
basis. The buses will leave about
1o O'Clock. In the afternoon there
will be no classes conducted, but a
high school teachers meeting will be
held at 2 o'clock to complete the or
ganization of the work. On Monday
afternoon at o'clock a full faculty
meeting will be held in the library.
The increased size of the school and
of the teaching load necessitates this
form Of procedure.
Plans have been made to make the
new year 1928 an outstanding year
in the annals of our school, including
the renovating and improving of diff
ferent parts of the building during
the summer. The high school will
occupy both rooms on the second floor
instead of one. The gymnasium now
presents an entirely new appearance.
The program of extra-curricular
activities, begun two years ago, and
extended last year, will be continued
with still greater benefits to the stu
dents, since regulation will be eXer-
cised in order to spread the activities
among more students.
A program of limitation of activi-
ties has been worked out to accord
with the wishes of the community.
Each students extent of participation
will be based on his ability to perform
his other school duties. Thus inter-
ference with his other school work
will be reduced to a minimum No
student will be allowed to participate
in any activity without the consent of
his parents. In this connection an
activity period has been scheduled
during the day in order to avoid fire.
quent night meetings or practices.
The program of activities will include
music, dramatics, assembly programs,
plays, debate, basketball, and other
sports for the boys and girls.
Pre.registratiOn.
All students who intend to be en-
rolled in the Askov high school for the
coming year are asked to register on
Saturday, Sept. 8. The hours of reg
istration will be from a. m. to IL M.
and 2 p. m. to p. m. on Saturday in
the high school principals office, for
merly the old rest room.
If it is impossible to register at this
time, special arrangements may be
made for registration on Monday. Adj
vance registration will permit time
for guidance and advice to the pupil.
1t will also provide for a change Of
schedule before school begins should
any conflict arise. This registration
is necessary unless a student wishes
to enter late, as no one will be reg
istered on Tuesday until classes have
been dismissed. If student lives
outside of the Askov district he should
bring his credentials at the time of
registration.
Parents who plan on having any of
their children begin school work this
year in the first grade are requested
to kindly cooperate with the admin
stration in sending only children who
have reached their sixth birthday on
or before Sept. 80 of this year. A re-
cent ruling of the board of education
makes this provision. to prevent an
Over-enrollment in the first and Sec
ond grade room.

fore, the most northern countries ap-
pear to furnish the most desirable
immigrants, judging from this stand
point alone"
Following this, in the years from
| 1908 to 1911 a great official inquest
was conducted by the Federal Immi-
grafton Commission which found that,
mo satisfactory evidence has yet
been produced to show that immi-
in crime disproportionate to the in
crease in adult population. Such
comparable statistics of crime and
population as it has been possible to
| obtain indicate that immigrants are
less prone to commit crime than are
native Americans.
Such figures as are presented in
the census reports indicate that i'm
migration has not increased the vol
ume of crime to a distinguishable
extent, if at all. In fact the figures
seem to indicate a contrary re-
suit.
Indeed, the data analysed in this
|
err commission of such offenses by
Americans than by immigrants"
The Wickersham Report.
The next and last great and ex-
haustive inquiry into this question
was that made by the Wickersham
Commission, which made its report in
1881.
The report of this effort, made
after the expenditure of much time
and money, comes to these conclu-
sions:
1. THAT in proportion to their re-
spective numbers the foreign born
commit considerably fewer crimes
than the native born.
2. THAT the foreign born approach
the record of the native white most
closely in the commission of crimes
involving personal violence.
3. THAT in crimes for gain Tin
Guiding robbery, in which there is
also personal violence or the threat
of violence) the native white greatly
exceed the foreign born"
| OuLuullIlS up Iuc ItSulC VI us liz
quiry the Commission says:
For more than century there
has been continuously in this coun-
try clamorous group who have
tended to emphasize only the diff
culties connected with immigration
and to lose sight of all it's beneficial
effects. Unfortunately these attacks
on the alien have frequently laid
stress on the popularity supposed re-
lation between immigration and
crime. Statistics have never justi-
fed their assumptions, and Miss
Bowlers report, shows that the most
recent official statistics fail to SUBJ
stantiate their charges.
Shifting the Responsibility.
Another reason for the constant
repetition of these attacks on the
immigrant lies in the ready accept
ance of the easy theory that our
social difficulties are not to be
charged to our own mistakes and
failures. 1t is easy to shift the re-
sponsibility for which is wrong by
charging it upon the nationals of
other countries. 1t is easier, for ex-
ample, to charge our crime record
against immigrants than against an
inefficient and corrupt system Of
police and an outworn system Of
criminal justice"
| To those foreign born who have
come here to make America their
home and final resting place, it is
gratifying to have this question finally
settled and disposed of by the highest
authority. Many, in fact most, of
these people are sensitive and honest,
proud of their good reputation and
anxious to be accepted as men and
women who respect law and do what

Weather Assists
Big Potato Crop

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Aug. 13.
U.P) ~ Ample rain and the cool
weather of early July have caused
Michigan farmers to anticipate the
largest potato crop on record. The
rainfall has produced large sets
of tubers per hill and the cool
weather greatly swelled the bottoms.
First diggings were of high quail
ity and brought SIPS a bushel, a
25 to 35 cent premium over Vir-
ginia and Carolina Irish cobblers.
Early onion planting also thrived
under these conditions and the
crop is moving to market two
weeks ahead of normal.
