Under the most suspicious circum-
stances the schools of District No. y
opened for the fall term on Tuesday
morning with an enrolment slightly
less than last year but nevertheless
sufficient to comfortably fill every room
of our complete system divided among
eight of the finest school buildings TO
be found anywhere in the northwest.
Monday being a holiday, although in
reality the beginning Of the school term,
Superintendent Stanley Adkins met
with the 104 teachers and conferred on
subjects germane to the successful con-
duct of the affairs of this great in
stitution of learning. The meeting was
productive of many interesting problems
which confront the superintendent and
the teachers during the school year
and all were discussed to a satisfactory
conclusion.
Up to the time this paper is printed
and in fact during the entire week, the
enrolment is not complete and the
assignments to classes are in the course
OF completion. A shift in teachers also
may be necessary, but this is a vague
statement as the larger number have
been definitely assigned to their re-
spective positions.
A calendar Of school events for the
year has been made up and printed.
This calendar will be distributed among
the teachers, the pupils and others in
terested. The list as made up con-
tains about everything for the year and
is very interesting. Athletic events are
listed as well as entertainment events,
holidays and other activities.
The football season with Coach
Buckley in charge of the squad opens
the season at Biwabik next Saturday.
On the following Saturday the team
plays at Tower and on the last Saturday
in the month the Eveleth team will
play against our team on the local
field
On Saturday, October 8, there viii be
a game here as an open date while the
Saturday following sees the team at
Virginia. Saturday, October II, Inter
national Falls plays here and Gilbert
on the next Saturday, or October "a.
On the 3lst, Ely will play at Aurora
This concludes the football season for

Special Writer in Columbus, O.,
Paper Tells Graphic Story
of Lookout's Work.

Charles j. Maxi, who is with the
forest service stationed in Ohio, sends
us an illustrated clipping from the
Columbus Evening Dispatch in which
Kenneth K. Smith, special writer,
tells the story of August Carlson, OBJ
server at the Fernberg station north
east of here.
Not only does Mr.. Smith give the
work of Mr.. Carlson at Fernberg, but
also tells of the work done during the
fire season by other towermen and
rangers and the new radio method of
communication in use on the Superior
National forest. The Dispatch headed
its story Tourists Carelessness Causes
Many Forest Fires" and then says:
THE sky is blue and coudless above
the land O. lakes. mo sign of rain"
Burrows Of care bite into the brow of a
tanned forest ranger as he scans the
sky, ever hopeful for a quenching
shower.
It's tourist time in Minnesota's lake
land. The greatest influx Of vacation
lists in many years has been keeping
resort owners hopping from dawn until
midnight. And each vacationist car
ries a potential forest fire in every
cigaret and every match. A careless
moment, a thoughtleSs gesture may
start blaze that will sweep thousands
of acres Of dry timber. And many acres
have burned this summer.
Constant Vigil
In his crowsnest atop an 80-foot
tower, young August Carlson observer
of the Fernberg lookout station, Is miles

the Superior National forest, watches

On This
Occasion
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

Mrs. Margaret Culkin Bann-
ing, Duluth novelist and civic
worker, has just returned with
her son and daughter from a
European visit that eliminated
in a hasty trip out of Spain.
Mrs. Banning expressed her
opinion that war was inevitable
between several of the Eur
opean nations.
Europe has been a seething
mass of war and uprisings since
time immemorial and wars are
to them just matter of every
day occurrence-somewhere-
if not in Spain, then in Russia,
France, Germany, Italy, Japan,
China or some other country
across the sea where some dig
nitary wakes up to the fact
that he wants to be dictator
or something, and opens up a
war with somebody-usually
weaker than himself.
1t is sincerely to be hoped
that the war lords of this
nation will keep their nose out
of European wars. We are,
and will be, paying for the last
one for years to come in broken
manhod and a depleted treas
ury. A referendum by the
American people would be al

COURTNEY JENKINS
DIES IN GARTH
Was Retired Civilian Assist
ant in War Department
Press Bureau.

Courtney M. Jenkins, chief civilian
assistant in the War Department
Press Bureau for 18 years. died yes
terday in Garfield Hospital, scarcely
a month after retirement.
A heart malady. the secret Of which
he characteristically kept to himself
overcame him two weeks ago. Life
meant much to the genial 7O-year- -old
friend of Washington newspaper men
and he had seemed to look forward
with almost boyish eagerness to rest
full years Of "pottering" about his SUBJ
urban home in Takoma Park, Md. To
those who encountered him about the
city soon after his retirement, August
81, the veteran newsgatherer had all
the enthusiasm OF a carefree colt In
the Kentucky blue grass region, where
he was born and reared.
Mr.. Jenkins came to the War De-
partment during the strenuous days
of the World War and it was not long
before his ability as civilian clerk
was discovered. He was transferred
in 1920 to the press bureau, and from
activities Of the Army found q stanch
friend.
Had "Nose" for News.
They discovered, furthermore that
this willing civilian clerk had nose
for news that belonged in a news
paper Office, but which he turned to
excellent advantage in separating the
chaff from the wheat in the news
cropper at the War Department. He
also had the ability to make friends
in and out of the department and
his retirement last August was q
matter of keen regret in many circles
But Mr.. Jenkins wanted to retire
He was faithful "war-horse" to the
end of his days in the Press Bureau
but to some Of his friends he had
frequently remarked with one of hi,
happy chuckles, that he didn't want
to die in harness" Yet he almos
did.
Never a robust man, the years o.
grinding desk work took their toll of 9
heart that enjoyed life and leisur,
and friends. He had accumulated q
months leave before his Off ;cial re.
| tirement and that brief period Of
less than two months was all the en-
joyment of freedom that he was privi.
legged to get.
Started as Salesman.
When Mr.. jenkins was a young mar
he became travelling salesman il
Tennessee and other Southern States
Then he drifted into Washington anc
for several years before the Worlc
War he was clerk for George F
Oyster Co. He seldom ever talked
about himself, but had at his finger
tips the thousand and one details Of
War Department machinery. At cut.
ting official red tape" to get a story
released he was past master Blu,
at keeping official doings a secret
| when that was necessary as a matter
of public policy no one in the Wal
Department was more successful.
Thin and wiry. Mr.. Jenkins gave
the impression to associates that h,
had many years of retired freedom ir
store for him. Yet all the while
he was suffering from heart trouble
and more recently from hardening o
the arteries. His physical troubles
! however. he never mentioned.
Mr.. Jenkins resided at IL Mont.
gomery avenue in Takoma Park, witt
his wife, Mrs. Faith Jenkins, his sole
survivor. Funeral services will bt
held tomorrow at 2 pm. at the Cham.
bers funeral home. followed by buria
in Cedar Hill Cemetery.
