John Listiak Mr. John Listiak was born in Sovonia, Europe, March 15, 1894, He first lived in Minneapolis, but last spring he bought a farm out in Moose Park and moved his family there. Short time ago he took a cold which developed into pneumonia and caused his death June 15, 1921. The funeral took place from the Lutheran church on Monday, Rev. Ode- gaard officiating.

Hetlie and his wife land son Enoch, who has just grad- |uated from the Lutheran seminary at the Luther League meeting held at conspiring against the government than there is in any other country. The punishment we mete out to such conspirators (when we punish them at all) is probably more lenient than that to be found in any other country., i And yet it is a fac* that there is les sinternal unrest in this country than in any other. There is,less undermining of the established order of government. There is less dissatisfaction! of every nature. And why? flg | We have no ki or nobility, no landed aristocracy of an- cien]t lineage, no class distinctions such as they have in the old world. We are a democratic people, our rulers are elected by vote of the people, and they govern for the benefit of the people. | There is no other government quite such as ours. There | is no other government as fai rto all classes of people as ours. here is nc other government as general and as humanitarian as ours. | Aliens who come to our shores make many times the money! they made in the lands from whence they came. They are free| agents and have no masters. They are men, and not serfs, | They have brains enough to see the advantages of such a| government as ours. They have top many brains to seek to de-| stroy the source from which their increased sustenance comes. | In all lands there are a few wild and rabid fools who seek| the destruction of government simply because it is government—| to sever their own noses for no other reason than that noses are, a part-of the human anatomy. i They are fewer, and less wild, and less rabid in this country than in any other. | When you hear an isolated idiotic nincompoop railing| against this country just ask him how he would like to be forci- | bly sent back to the place from whence he came? He will have no answer ready for you. There is none to| Jbe made. | | | KEEPING CHILDREN IN SCHOOL | Every state now has a compulsory day school attendance law, according to information recently furnished by the United | Spates Department of Labor through the children’s bureau. The| bureau has just completed an analysis of education laws af-| fecting child labor, the results of which are published in a chart| entitled “‘State Compulsory School Standards Affecting the| Employment of Minors.” | In five states attendance is required until 18 years of age,| in two of these in certain districts only; in 3 until 17; and in 32| until 16.. One state requires attendance until 16; six others and the District of Columbia until 14, and one state requires at- i tendance until the age of 12 years, but applies this to illiterates only. Unfortunately, the exemptions in the majority of states are| 80 numerous that they greatly limit the application of the law.' The most common exemptions are for employment, or upon com-| pletion of a specified school grade. Four states specifically exempt for work in agricultural pursuits, 3 with no age provi—‘ sion, The laws of 14 other states contain loosely worded pro-| visions exempting a child at any age, which might be used to cover absence for farm work as well as for many other purposes{ Several states exempt a child whose services are necessary for“ the support of himself or others, without any age or educational | provision, | The amount of attendance required is still unsatisfactory in! many states, several demanding only 12, 16 or 20 weeks in 2| year.
