Friday and Monday this year for Eas-
ter vacation; the short period was
due to the fact that it has been closed
so many other days on account of
impossible roads. However, the
teachers took advantage of the four
consecutive days and visited at the
respective homes.

ing up this state.
Holding the honor for old age,
among the applications for assistance
that have so far reached the Old Age
Assistance Division in st. Paul, is
Mrs. Josephine Potacek of AnOka
county. On March 19, 1886, she
reached the age of 102 years. Born
in Poland in 1884, she has lived in
the United States for 43 years. The
State of Minnesota and the County of
Anoka will do themselves proud to
grant to this century-Old mother
some financial recognition for her
services to state and nation.
1t is rather amusing, after the I'M
pressive display of unity in the re-
cent Farmer-Labor convention, to sec
the daily press still persisting in car
rying stories about alleged splits in
the Farmer-LabOr ranks-splits which
exist only in the disturbed minds of
the reactionaries.
The latest is a story to the effect
that Magnus johnson, who has filed
for the gOvernorship, refuses to head
an opposition ticket sponsored by
some of the sore heads of the old
Townley committee of 100. This COM
mittee played very prominent part
in the last campaign in the columns
of the daily press but the result at
the polls showed that the voters of
Minnesota paid no attention to it what
soever. And now the press has no
thing more substantial to base dis
sention stories on than by reviving
this old discredited committee of 100
:. discredited despite the fact
that some good people were misled
into serving on it.
1t all goes to prove that a drown
ing man will grasp at a straw to
save himself.
Although the plans and specifica-
tions for the new state hospital for
mental diseases to be erected at Moose
Lake have been approved by the State
Board of Control, the advertising fOl
bids and the letting of the contract
for construction of the buildings are
awaiting word from Washington as
to whether the state will receive the
requested grant of 100000 from the
WPA.
The state has available for this
work S1,2O0,O0O. Should the WPA
grant be made, it will increase the
capacity of the institution from SOC
to 1900. However, the plans as now
drawn provide for additions which
can be constructed at a future date
if the 100000 is not forthcoming.
Special emphasis has been laid in
drawing the present plans for large
receiving hospital. 1t is in the re-
ceiving hospital rather than at the
effective treatment for recovery. Mem
bers of the Board of Control assure
that actual construction work will be
undertaken some time this summer
and the hospital be ready for receiv-
ing patients in less than two years.
What is conservation? Many def
nitions have been given. Here is Com
missioner of Conservation E. V.
Wizards definitions: conservation is
not an exact science but a phil
osophy. Like religion it has Il
number of creeds to-day with new
ones added and old ones discarded
tomorrow. The true meaning of con-
servatiOn is understood only by those
who have an unselfish and benevo-
lent attitude towards the use of ma
lures gifts for purposes which will
do the greatest good to the greatest
number of people for the longest
time"

Rule Revision Desirable.

THE obvious remedy IS the elimlna-
i ton of all restrictions on defense
against. forward pass, after the pass
is thrown, with perhaps a sop to the
offense that the ball may be tossed
from any point back of the line. Seven
out of 10 forward passes are caught In
the clear anyway, with no chance OF
interference.
So powerful a weapon as the pass,
offsetting, as it so often does, the run
ming attack, will get along very we'll
indeed without the necessity OF de-
pendence upon the present ham
stringing of the defense.

Defense Compelled to Foul.

"a T LEAST, the officials called the
= foul and presumably it was one. If
1t was not the Dartmouth offenders
certainly we're lacking in headwork.
For, by willfully committing inter-
ference, they saved a touchdown. No
penalty may be called which takes
the ball over the goal line. So, in
stead Of the touchdown, which prob
ably would have been scored had the
defense not interfered with Kelley.
Yale received the ball on the 1-yard
line with time for one play.
The fact that the Ellis did not de-
serve to win this game Is beside the
point of the fact that the rules make
the commission of foul essential
under such circumstances.

ONE time-maybe this Winter
the Foot Ball Rules Committee
will awake to the fact that ex-
- isting regulations governing the
forward pass are nothing less than
Joke.
Plenty evidence supporting this
statement may be adduced from foot
ball games played every Saturday of
the season.
Take the closing juncture Of the
Dartmouth game, for instance.
Yale threw a forward pass which Capt.
Kelley probably would have caught
over the goal line had not Dartmouth

POWER SHARES
ADDECLINE
ON CURB
By EDWARD KRICKER

NEW YORK, Sept. / Q.N.S).
A definitely easier tone developed
in curb stocks as light liquidation
came into the market shortly
after the opening, depressing the
list to irregularly lower levels.
Selling was in evidence in all
groups but appeared to have
originated in the power shares.
Changes were Of small proper.
tions and the market rather a
quiet affair.
Columbia Gas preferred was as
hard hit as any issue in the mar.
ket, turning down more than 2
points. Electric Bond and Share
eased % point and American Gas
and Electric and Cities Service
lost ground. The United Light
issues were somewhat higher, al
though the preferred turned down
from its opening peak.
A few of the higher priced metal
shares were showing Sizeable losses
but the rest of the division held
up well. Lake Shore and New
mont turned down a point each.
Sunshine was active and moder-
ately higher and Hecla advanced.
Oils were little changed. Red
Bank again improved slightly.
General Fireproof jumped more
than a point to 1874 for one of
the better gains in the SpecialtieS.
