With all this train of masculine titles, Miss Rae is, of all things, vonanly. Why, she even refuses to vulge her age. Works With Men “I am just a plain business wo- man,” she explains, “I have never worked for woman suffrage because I didn’t have tibe, but I think they hav a right to vote. I like to work | with men; they are fine at business. They haven't all the brains in the world; neither have women. My keynote has been co-operation.” Miss Rae is far from being a home- body. How could she be when she was working 14 hours a day at her desk and making addresses away from it? Despite this fact, she has done more for the great American home, perhaps, than any other wo- , man, or man, in this homey world, In fact, homes are her hobby. She has completed financial _areange- | ments that made possible the build- ing of enoug hhomes to make a fair- ized town, * “Homes are very near and dear to | women,” she explains. “You are in close touch with so many homes; do you find it true that We ure developing a nation of delica- tessen housewives living in ‘two-by- four’ apartments?” she was asked. High Hopes, Miss Rae smiled her bonniest smile. “Of course not,” she said. “Hom are changing, sure enough, but mos' ly or the better.

A German submarine in 1916 laid mines at the port entrance. In due | time the steamer Hivos, laden with grain, struck one of these bombs and went down keel uppermost in 30 fathoms, There she lay for seven years, but during this time the confined grain was generating gas. This finally lift- «gd the steamer again to the surface where she righted and promptly blew }up. Nobody Was near and it was at! night, so for a while the mystery found in the quantities of wreckage and floating grain, highly fermented, discovered floating on the surface of the water.

The decision came in\the suit of | the Palama and Kalihi Japanese lan- guage_ schools to restrain territorial | officials from enforcing the law in, question, which was adopted by the legislature of 1920. The measure provides that all teachers in the language schools must have obtain-.| |ed from territorial school officials a | | certificate following ‘in examination i into the applicant's knowledge of the j deals of democracy, American his- |tory and institutions, and the abili-| |ty to read, write and speak the Eng- lish language. | The Palama and Kalihi schools contended that the measure violated the fifht and fourteenth amendments to the federal constitution. | “That the right to teach a foreign | language to pupils in a’ private school | exists, there is no doubt, but such | |right is subject to the paramount |right of the people to impose upon, the!engagement thereof ‘any reason-. able legislation the public welfare) may require,” Judge Andrade’s deci- sion said. “I am convinced that the law is within the fifth and four-| teenth amendments’ to the constitu- tion; that it is regulatory and its re- quirements are reasonable and not arbitrary. Having decided that the! act is the proper exercise of the po-! lice power of the legislature in such | matters, it necessarily follows that} it is not contrary to the provisions | of the treaty of commerce and navi- gation’ existing between the United States and Japan. “If a part of the education of some of the American children is the | learning of the Japanese language, and if they are allowed to be taught by teachers who are indifferent to our ideals of democracy, or who do| not know how to read, write or speak the English language, such teachers} will not impart to the future citizens of Hawaii these essential principles of Amerteanism with any degree of | may desire earnestly to do.so.” CORN AVERAGES Wahpeton, N. D., Now, 12.—A 10-aere field of. White Rustler Dent corn has just been harvested by Brown Willtams of Dexter township, about 10 miles northwest of Lidger- wood, that averaged 70 bushels an acre. The field had been in sweet clover for the last two years before being plowed and planteg to corn last spring.-The field was giyen only the same care and attention as other corn raised by Mr. Williams and his neighbors which is averaging about 50 bushels.

In view of all the circumstances, stamp collectors are hopeful of getting some interesting specimens, When the German Pacific cruiser squadron under Admiral von Spee, which kept the shipping world guess- ing for the first four months of the great war, put in Ponape, one of the Caroline Islands, in August of 1914, the sailors filled the local post office with letters to friends and relatives back in the fatherland. Then they sailed away to what was ultimately their last fight; they went down be- fore the English off the Falkland Islands in December. The letters never left Ponape, The Japanese got hold of them ultimately, and not long ago turned them over to the Germ: postal authorities. Each communication bears a special stamp reading: “Mail of the Pacific cruiser squadron of August, 1914.” Claims Well Pump Outside of Limits Carrington, N, D., Nov. 12.—Must. the City of Carrington pay taxes on the well and pumping plant which it ind which are situated outside the Timits in the township four miles from town? - This is the question upon which the attorney general's office _has been asked to rule. The taxes on the plant are-more than $60 as entered on the tax rolls. The real estate would be extra. The well property was placed on the assessment list last year for the first time by Carrington townthip. The city hastened to seek an opinion when a notice from the sheriff's of- fice threatened drastic collection measures. BULGARIA TURNING TO TOBACCO Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. 12.—The pro- duction of tobacco is fast supersed- ing wheat growing in Bulgaria, Once almost exclusively a wheat raising country, today Bulgaria has ten acres in tobacco against one in the cereal. Bulgarien farmers were taken into |Europeay, Turkey before the war to work in the tobacco fields, and learn- jed the busipess thorgughly. Unsettl- ‘ed conditions have killed the indus- try in Turkey, so the Bulgarians are lreturning to their own conntry bringing the industry with them. Farmers find’ there is six to eight keteq through the Farmers elevator. From Grand Rapids, N. D., comes the news dispatch: “A. G.

The jury was out an hour and eight minutes. Mr. Stokes took the jury’s decision complacently. An ac- tion for separation on Mrs. Stokes? behalf is on the calendar for next Mondhy, The re-trial which was ended by the verdict today, opened, before Su- preme Court Justice Mohoney on Oc- tober 8. It had been made necessary by nullification through a legal tech-y nicality of a verdict found against the wealthy hotel owner by a jury in September; 1921, when Mrs. Stokes was granted a decree of separation and permitted to retain custody of the two children. Nullification was from failure of Justice Finch to ign both deerees before he was ele- vated to the appellate division. LA MOURE IS SHIPPING CORN La Moure, N.
