The forming of a parent-teachers association in connection with the Central school is something that shou[d be given some| very serious thought by the parents of all children attending| that school. Many parents do not even know the names of the teachers of their children, to say nothing al?out knowing them personally. Parents would not think of sending their sons| or daughters to a music teacher or dancing master unless they| knew who they were and all about them. Why sl}ould not the! same be true of the school teacher who has infinitely more to do with the training of the boys and girls. Mar}y m)sunderstand_-} ings would be eliminated, a much better feeling would prevail between child and teacher when father and mother both are friends of the child’s teacher. Many peculiarities of the child which the parent may know and which it may take the teacher a long time to learn might easily be explained to the teacher by the parent and thus the efficiency of the teacher greatly increased. The teacher may| know of some things about the child which the parent has not‘x yet discovered and when the right relationship exists between' the two, the teacher would not hesitate to speak of it to the par-/ ent, where otherwise it might be embarrassing. Much may be accomplished by co-operation between the‘ teacher and the parent, and many things done for the good of| the pupil, which are much needed. The backing of every par-| ent should be given to the association and the results obtained| will amply repay the effort spent. O FEDERAL MONEY FOR MINNESOTA ROADS | Seventy-five million dollars becomes available as Federal, aid for road construction in the various states, the money to be| spent under the supervision of the Bureau of I{ub]ic Funds, De-! partment of Agriculture, under the Federal Highway act, sign-| ed last Wednesday by the president. In addition, $15,000,000 is appropriated for national forests roads. The $75,000,000 represents the federal government’s appropriation to the work of building highways in the various states and must be matched, dollar for dollar, by funds from the state treasuries, except in states where more than 5 per cent of the area is unappropriated public land. . The $75,000,000 appropriated, is for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1922, and $25,000,000 of the sum is available immedi- ately, the balance becoming available on January 1, 1922, Of this amount, Minnesota receives $2,123,597.07. This will aid considerably in continuing road work in Minnesota dur-| ing the winter months and wlil help solve the unemployment problem. It is estimated that 250,000 men were being given! employment in the United States on Federal highway construc- tion work, and it is expected that this act will keep these men at work, as far as weather conditions will permit, and thus help prevent the unemployment situation from becoming more seri- ous. ——o0: BISHOP BENNETT'S WARNING No stronger patriotic address has been heard in Bemidji than that given by Bishop Bennett, on Armistice Day. Out of the’many tremendous facts uttered by the Bishop, we would selett as the strongest, the powerful reminder which he left with his audience, that in the career of nations, God has ever held in reserve a nation to carry forth the great mission of hu- manity when other nations fail to longer carry the torch to light the world. America has the sacred privilege, but also the tre-| mendous responsibility of carrying that torch now, and, should she fail at this crucial moment, God may have in reserve the yellow man of China, which, once awakened, would, with pon- derous stride, push back the white races, take up the torch and carry it before the world. This is a fearful possibility and one which America just now cannot evade. America must strike out by herself and set up a program which will at once stamp her as the leader of all| nations in her service for humanity. O Bacon said: “A man would do well to carry a pencil in his pockel, and write down the thoughts of the moment. Those that come unsought for are commonly the most valuable, and; should be secured, because they seldom return.” GREW IN PREHISTORIC TIMES Corn Recently Found in Tennessee s oot SRS SO cultivaél beyond ihe Great Lakes m Canada long before the discovery of America.

Groat (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Nov. 12.—“Nie wieder Krieg”—“never again war.” i This is the slogan of an ever-in- creasing army in Germany, the cry of men who have come to a realiza- tion finally that war is a losing game for all concerned; the appeal.of wom- en who suffered through the German “turnip winter;” the call of children cheated out of their rightful heri- tage—a gound body—through way shortages. Germany as a whole doesn’t want any more war—mnot this generation at least. 1t is fed up on war. This is my firm conviction after talks with men in all walks of life in Germany the past two years and a careful observation of the trend of thought and affairs in the new Ger- many. France’s alleged fear of a new| German invasion is, at the moment, a senseless bugaboo, according not on- ly to Germans, but also to English officers. The one thing that can make that fear an actuality, according to many authorities, is a further growth of “French chauvinism and militarism.” Germany—undoubtedly forgetting the ravages her armies made in France—fails to see, perhaps, the ground for French anxiety and bit- terness. On the other hand, the con- viction is settling even deeper in the German psyghology, that France, if unhindered by England, would dis- member Germany, leaving her a bloodless land, without economic strength. Germany is bitter over France'’s play in Upper Silesia. Ger- many resents constant French pres- sure in the west, and thinks France would emasculate the German indus- trial region. These and other things make the; average German feel that France is(‘ trying to take 'more than her pound; of flesh. At the same time, the aver- age man forgets the republic at the start, trimmed and backed and filled, seeking outs in the treaty until Wirth came forward with the pronuncia- mento that Germany was going to| play fair and proceed to fuifill. Wirth has somewhat swung around the French attitude. But there is in Germany today a smouldering hatred of France, which Germany at present is not in a po- sition to wage war. She is disarmed.' I say this on the authority of no less a personage than the British General Binghplq, of the allied disarmament commission. Just now, German industry is too busy trying to capture world markets and meet reparations to think about any more war. And the “man in the street” is even less anxious for a war than perhaps his capitalistic master. { have queried groups of laboring men as to whether they wanted any more war.
