Bulkelfp

THE name of Buckley is taken
from the Manor of Buckley in
the County Palatine of Chester. Eng
land. This manor derived its name
from its location-being surrounded
by broad acres of bullock -ley-pasture
lands.
The English ancestor of the family
was Baron de Buckley. lord Of the
manor, 1l99-l226. He was one OF the
noted barons who made life so I'M
comfortable for King John, with the
result that the King was forced by
them to sign that immortal document
OF England. the Magma Charta, on the
field of Runneymede in 1916.
The American ancestor was the
Rev. Peter Buckley nonconformist
minister who preached in England for
Fl years before coming to this coun-
try. He arrived in 1885 and settled
in Cambridge. The following year
he removed to Concord, Mass.
Other settlers in this country were
william Buckley Of Ipswich. Mass.
who located there in l648. and
Thomas, who was a resident Of Bos-
ton before 1885.
There are many descendants OF
these founders in the various States
today. Some branches of the family
have changed the spelling to Buckley

STUDYFOR MASSES
DECREED BY CHINA.
One Year of Schooling Re.
.auired for Children by
1910.

NANKNG, China GF).-A long
range program of compulsory educa-
ton which will require all Sabotage
children of the nation to complete at
least one year of schooling before
1910 has been put into effect by the
ministry of education.
Government funds have been ap-
propriated for the establishment of
short-term grammar schools through
out the country. Instruction will be
free.
Less than 80 per cent of China's
100000 children between the ages
Of 6 and II have had any education,
a government survey has shown. The
nations education leaders have long
insisted that elimination of illiteracy
is essential If China Is to take her
place among the advanced powers.
Prime mover in the drive against
illiteracy is DR.. Shih-Chieh Wang,
minister of education. DR.. Wang an
nounced that after the first phase
of the program is completed, in 1910,
the period Of compulsory education
Will Dt cAleuucu W tWO yCdlo. alICI
1914 the minimum term of schooling
required for all children will be four
years.
DR.. Wang declared that his plan
has been proved practicable by the
experience of Soviet Russia, which in
few years established universal edu-
cation among population which had
been IS per cent illiterate.
DR.. Wang believes China has over
emphasized the Importance Of high
school and college education and has
laid insufficient stress on primary
instruction.
While Chinese universities have ex-
banded 100-fold and high schools
eight-fold in the past quarter century,
the number of grammar schools has
only quadrupled in the same period, "
Dr.. Wang said.

course, the perhaps unfortunate Abys-
sinian membership in the League of
Nations complexities immensely the
problems that would be raised by
aggressive action on the part of Italy.
We cannot. however, shut our eyes to
the fact that, for the last 80 years
or more, Abyssinia has been an I'M
comfortable neighbor and, in spite of
the efforts of the present Emperor,
she has made little progress in fitting
herself into the modern world. Partly
through the fault of the European
powers themselves, Abyssinia has
pinned her faith on playing of one
against the other.
Trouble Double Rooted.
The present trouble has arisen be-
cause. firstly Abyssinia has proved
herself a difficult neighbor and has
been unwilling to arrange definite
frontiers because she was anxious to
retain a sort of exercise ground for
raiding parties. Secondly, when an
Abyssinian gives a concession under
pressure he is a master at raising
obstacles in the way of its exploita
ton. In both of these respects he
has been creating difficulties with

Italy, particularly as a result of the
hostility aroused by Adowa.
Putting the ethical question aside,
is Abyssinia worth the stupendous
effort Italy apparently contemplates?
Abyssinia Is a fertile country with
a good climate, but the presence Of a
considerable native population would
make It's colonization somewhat diff
cult. Moreover, the expense of placing
its agricultural products on the world
markets would be great Does Abys-
Sinia possess mineral wealth or oil

proved. Gold there is, but in spite of

don't think that single field has been
located which would repay the ex-
penses of development, although one
platinum mine near the Sudan from

Perhaps the efforts of peace makers
have had an irritating rather than
a soothing effect and perhaps the
League of Nations has held out false
hopes. I wonder, if they stood aside.

how little was to be gained and how
much to be lost by pursuing their
quarrels.

House Contests Discussed
Interesting Sessions

The All clubs Of Stearns county
had two very successful leaders
meetings, on February 8, and 8. at
Sank Centre and st. Cloud. A great
number Of the leaders attended the
meetings and felt that they had de-
rived a great deal out of them.
Through MIR. Giberson's instruc-
tive talk and fine bird house ex-
hibit, 1t was shown that the SIM
plest and most natural house was
the kind Of home or shelter which
the birds wanted. We also received
the latest material on the one-act
play contest which will be held
around the first part Of April.
It was decided at the meeting
that a large countrywide leaders
meeting would be neld in about a
month for the purposes of electing
the officers Of the 4-H Council. A
committee will be named to decide
on the time and place of the oc-
casion and to plan the entertain
ment and lunch.

Special School
Meeting Monday
VIII Present Resolution Asking
Electors To Ratify Past
Acts of Board

A special meeting Of the electors
of the Independent School District
of Sank Centre has been called for
Monday afternoon, February 18th,
at o'clock, to be held in the Sup
erintendent's office in the Senior
High School building.
A resolution will be presented to
the electors asking them to ratify
the actions of the Board in the
sales of two properties made in
past years. Since 1888 the Board
has purchased and sold real estate,
believing it had the right to do so.
1t now appears that to give clear
title to land sold these acts must
be ratified.
The necessity Of this action was
caused by the sales of property
along Main Street to William OF
to, and ten-acre tract to the Ser
epta Home. These purchasers de-
mand clear title to the property.
This meeting is being held solely
for the purpose of ratifying past
acts of the board, and, as we un-
derstand from information furnish
ed by board members, has no bear
ing upon the future.

Local Plant
To Remove Poles From Oak
Street-To Be Placed
In Cable
5000 FEET OF CABLE
Work Will Be Completed
About The Middle
Of March

Construction crews of the North
western Bell Telephone Company
recently began work on important
arrangements of the telephone
plant in this city, it was stated to-
day by Mr.. H. S. Forsyth, Manager
for the Telephone company. Poles
will be removed from Oak Street
from End to 18th and these tele-
phone lines will be placed in cable
in the alleys of nearby blocks,
Poles will also be removed from
the city park.
Other features of the work which
is being undertaken are the re-
placement throughout the city of
poles which have reached the end
of their service life and the install
lation of cable in place of open
wire" lines where a considerable
number of lines are concentrated.
The telephone company and the
electric light department are CO
operating in an effort to reduce
the number of poles required, by
using the same poles for both cleo
trio light and telephone lines
wherever possible.
These arrangements will all
tend to improve the appearance of
Sank Centre" said Mr.. Forsyth,
"and the placing of more than five
thousand feet of cable will safe
guard the service against Interrupt
tions caused by storms. These ca
bles are being placed in sizes large
enough for future growth, particu-
larry in the north part of town
where a portion of our plant has
been in use to it's full capacity.
"A recent inspection of the tele-
phone plant in Sank Centre will
result in the removal of 1875 poles
which had reached the end of
their service life and the placing
Of 95 new poles. The entire job
will be completed about the middle
of March,"
