whether the administration con-
templated making representations
10 Germany regarding the supposed
violation of the military clauses OF
the Versailles treaty. He indicated

PAST THE TEENS

The Askov American is now 21
years old and "of age" With this
weeks issue is commenced Volume
NXU.
Ever since the first issue on Sept.
Il. 1914. it has been under the same
management. Others have Joined and
the staff has been increased.
Though 81 years seems like short
time in looking back. Wilson was
president at the time. and since the
war time president we have had Hard
ing. Coolidge. Hoover and now RooSe-
welt. Always much excitement every
time we were to choose a president,
but the storm subsided and calm pre-
vailed again. the country weatherins
the storm.
The World war took place during
the existence of the Askov American
and Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic
in airplane.
Folks now get daily news report:
over the air and sometimes they ever
hear from the antipodeS, but in spite
of it there is bigger demand fol
copies of our publication for which
we are thankful.
Being of age we will now mos
likely speak up more than ever before

GOOD LEADERSHIP l.

1t was indeed a pleasure for pa
irons of the Askov school to attend
the parent-teacher meeting last Fri
day evening and listen to the two
young leaders who have recently come
to this community to do their part in
the building of good community life.
Rev. Johannes knudsen spoke of the
home and the individual and the
schools relation to the greatest in
stitutiOn-the home, and Superintend-
ent Otto G. Hoiberg spoke of the
technical work of the teachers, the
change made from an eight and four
year plan to the six-six plan with its
junior and senior high school, He
said this diminishes the break be-
tween the grades and the high school
and under the six-six plan the in
struction is more thorough from the
sixth grade and on because teachers
instruct only in subjects in which
they have specialized-better than to
have one teacher for all the subjects
in one grade as formerly.
While the new heads of the local
church and school have been here
but few weeks they did not come as
strangers. They have visited the
community before and lectured on
various occasions. Rev. knudsen's
wife is an Askov girl. raised here and
graduated from the local high school
and Mrs. Hoiberg formerly taught in
the Askov school. They are welcome
in the community and we bespeak fol
Knudsen and Hoiberg and their gooC
mates successful, fruitful and happy
days in our midst. All four have
pleasing personalities. They are il
their best and most active years. in
telligent, experienced. and broad
minded and are the type of people
who desire to serve and be helpful.

THE AMERICAN CONSTITUTION

Tuesday. Sept. 18th, was ccnstitu-
tion day. and was observed out over
the country. especially in the larger
cities with prominent men speaking
on the constitution. its origin. and its
meaning. Conservatives took advan-
tage OF the opportunity to warn
against tampering with the constitu-
tion.
1t is a wonderful document for
which all Americans should be
thankful. 1t was written by able and
far-sighted men. but on the other
hand it is not a holy document. If it
needs amendment there are able men
today who can write the amendments.
To date ii has been amended II times,
1t is we'll for every citizen to know
and to understand the constitution OF
his country. to know its value and to
appreciate it. For that reason the
Askov American is publishing it in
serial form these weeks. from one tC
two columns in each issue. Are you
reading it?

RELIGION IN THE SOUTH.

Now that Huey Long is gone one
of his right hand bowers. Rev. Gerald
l.. X. Smith, seems to have increased
his bombasity. One day last winter
he spoke in the Minnesota House of
Representatives when his delivery and
actions reminded one much of the
famous Billy Sunday. After he was
gone his message, if there was any
was forgotten.
But the other day he berated Sena-
tor Theodore G. Bilbo of Mississippi
for "spilling lies against Long"
As to Bilbo Smith asked:
why did you come to New Orleans
Friday, two days before our leader
was shot. with $4,000 in cash to put
in bank in New Orleans?
You low down politician"
Senator Bilbo. himself licensed
minister of the Baptist church, re
ferred to Rev. Smith. organizer OF
Long "share-our-wealth' societies. a:
"damnable self-made liar" in de
nying charges made by Smith.
when Rev. Smith intimates, in
sinuates or charges that l went t
New Orleans last week or at an!
other time in my life with $4,000 il
my pocket" Senator Bilbo said hotly
''he is a contemplate. dirty. vicious
pussillanimous. with malice-afore
thought. damnable self-made liar"
Some vocabulary. And how is tina
for brotherly love?
