The sewing e).dublt: was unusually large and unusually good,: It was a credit to b_oth the pupils who did it and to the instructors. If it is not as important that girls should be able to do this work as it is to know the causes of volcanoes or to know when Craesar crossed the Rubicon, we plead ignorance of the fundamentals of ed}xcatlon. * Perhaps if mothér would take the pains to teach daughter these things at home; as in the good old days, less economics would need to be taught in the schools, but mother is busy at something else and daughter is left to flounder along as best she can before and after she has a home of her own unless she has been fortunate enough to have had a training in-home economics in the schools. AR IR 1 THE VALUE OF OUR TEACHERS COLLEGE "= The various commencement functions of the State Teachers college serve to impress upon Bemidji citizens the fact that we have in our midst a college which is fast developing a real col- lege spirit. Is it not possible that perhaps we do nof fully ap- preciate what the presence of the State Teachers college means to.Bemidji? It means that Bemidji must be the centen of edu- cation of Northern Minnesota. The present plant of the:college is but a start on a $2,000,000 institution. It must be a part of the publicity of Bemidji for all future time to keep before the people of Northern Minnesota the fact that 1.3_em1d31 is to be thelir center of educational instruction. Bemidji must .be ‘buqt up With the idea before it of a large educational institution in its midst. There should be reflected in the city that culture which is a part of an educational center so that it will be thought of by parents as an ideal place for their song and ‘dau‘ghters to be- come educated. X ereh © Areall of u8, as citizens, taking the interest and pride in this institution we shéuld? Let us encourage President Deputy and his faculty by demonstrating that interest. . L T S THE BOY SCOUT CAMP The summer camp of, the Boy Scouts has been announced and from the enthusiasm manifested some weeks ago by the business men of the city at the “father and son” banquet there should not be any difficulty in the boys getting what they need in the line of financial support and equipment to use during camp. The fact that the boys themselves are each being asked {0 contribute $4.00 to the commissary fund for ‘their eats dur- ing the camp is evidence that they are willing te do their part. When the time comes for the boys to-go into camp they shouid receive the help they need to make their camp a success and the same is true of the girls’ camp. The amount they are asking is very conservative, . The request which has been made with regard to giving boys, work so. that they may earn the $4.00 if they have not al- ready that amount should be given every consideration. The boys want to earn their money as all good Scouts should do. If you have some work they can do make it ’known to the proper person. O MEXICO FOR THE MENNONITES ' The Mexican government is reported to be going; to give| the colony of Mennonites in Saskatchewan free transportation from the Mexican border to Durango, where 20,000 of them are going to settle, having decided to move from Canada en masse. From the experience of previous foreigners in Mexico, trans- portation is usually free, but very difficult when the Mexicans decide that the foreigners-are accumulating some of the wealth of their.country. In view of the averseness of the Mennonites to war, we are just wondering how they will hold their own with the Mexicans who use that for a pastime. We wish them well. Personally, we prefer America, or even Canada for that part.
