A, H. Heath is now the owner of the McIntosh Times, taking charge of that publication last week, hav- ing bought the interests of A. E Roese. The first issue of the Time= under the guidance of Editor Heat! was full of news, and promises Mc Intosh a live weekly. A report issued by the Federa Bureau of Education shows that there are twenty commercial schools and business colleges in Minnesota The 1913 enrollment was 6,839 pu- pils. It is estimated that more than half this number completed commercial courses and a large num- ber are now employed in Minnesots business institutions. In the entirc nation there are 618 business col leges and commercial schools and they accommodate 160,557 student: annually. This is an average an- nual attendance of 206 pupils per school. A Scholar’s Patriotism, When jingoistic orators wave the stars and stripes and.shout plati- tudes about our glorious national destiny, sensible auditors are not much interested. But when such a cool, deliberate thinker as Dr. Eliot, president emoritus of Harvard, tells us that the future of the American nation is bright with hope, and sets torth the reasons for his faith, we are ready to listen. Dr. Eliot in a recent magazine article expresses hiz confidence that this nation is des- tined to a long life because: We have universal education; We are tolerant in religion; We have better family life than had any of the historic republics that perished; We have more equitable inherit- ance laws; : We have adequate publicity in all public activities; Our large industrial organizations afford ‘“‘a new discipline for thous- ands of managing and directing people.” And we have universal suffrage-— or will have as soon as all our wo- men gain the franchise—suffrage which ‘“prolongs the effect of uni- versal education; for it stimulates all citizens throughout their lives to reflect of problems outside the nar- row circle of their private interests and occupations, to read about pub- lic questions, to discuss public char- acters and to hold themselves ready in some degree to give account of their political faith.” ‘“‘Don’t be a bear on the American people,” J. P. Morgan used to tell his pessimistic Wall street friends. Dr. Eliot, though lacking the financier’s pic- turesque bluntness, is building the patriotism market just the same.

MIRRORS GF PUBLIC PRIDE. The Average Concern as to Private Property Finds Itself Repeated In the School Grounds of a Community. How They Can Be Beautified. In a recent bulletin extension department of the Ohio State r A, B. Graham points out that it not uncommon to find in tbe dwelling house and the surrounding it a manifestation of pride in private property. The honse and barn, outbuildings and feuces show an appreciation of the beautiful. From year to year more goud tuste Is iter number of orna- moutl\ plantin; il in the keeping of the lawn. The pines and spruces, which in an earier day were sef so thickly that they practically "hid the residence, have heen vut from direc! in front of the house so as to make i central point of observatfon. Local pride also self in’ clean ftence row nd mowed roadsides. What wight be considered an aver- to the private prope retlected i the sclool s of that community. The pride of the community as a whole often fur below that shown in it private properties. The school grounds are but mirrors in which the comimuni- ties can see their own pride reflected, I pile that has accumulated for years shows the greatest degree of in- difference on the part of both teachers and patrous, for its removal from the front door is an improvement thaf may be casily made. Perhaps the most demoralizing agen- ey.on rural school property is the im- properly cared for outhuildin, Bx- posed outbuildings cau be screened with a few plantings that in a short time will hide them. [t wiii pay any community to direct its attention to the cleaning up and placing in proper condition of all of thexe buildings so that those from self respecting families may not have their sense of cpmmon decency and propriety offended. The coal house or wood house, which fur- nishes a place tor the bill posi to practice his art, should be so far back from the road that he cannot reach it without making an extra effort I- posting of every kind on school prop- erty ought to be prohibited. This build- ing Is driven to only a few fimes n year by those who haul fuel. and the so called convenience that comes from its being near the road is more than offset by its detraction from the wen- eral appearance of the front of the house and yard. In this day the main paths from the road to the front en- trance, to the well curb and perhaps the outbuilding should be made of such material that they will always be in proper condition to be used as walks. In most places where trees have been planted the entire front of the house is hidden. If the planting were well to the left and rizht of the building, m: ing the house the central point, witix a grass plot in front, the picture pre- sented to the passerby would be much more pleasing. Low plantings, such as lilacs, “snowballs, hardy hydrangeas. flowering quince and syringas sheuld be planted in masses around the bor- ders and in the corners of the school lot.” The lawnmower should be used apon the front of the school yard. Too often the yards are allowed to grow ap to tall weeds which are cut down only a week or two before school be- gins. The school yard may be planted in such a way that there will be beautiful pleces of shrubbery in bloom before the school closes, bright colored foliage for the fall and for winter arched and groined palaces formed by the snow laden branches of the treec and bushes. Such school properties as command the ation and respect of the occaston- al visitor of the school as wel the patronsz. children and teachers make better citizens, happier children and moare hopeful teachers, TO OPEN -TURN KEY “Oil Paste” Polish For all kinds of Black Shaes Uil Blacks, Polishes, Preserves il ato Russet “Oil Paste” Same size box. cach 10c, AskYour Dealerhr VL The LIBERATI CONCERT BAND Has such a rep throughout the land That OTHER FAIRS of wide renown Were peeved when LIBBY turned them down.
