D., Oct. 6.—Moral in- building of character to fit young men und women to meet the complexities of the increasing tenseness of economic life in the na- tion is a subject engrossing the a tention of leading educators of the times, Miss Bertha R. Palmer of Bis- marek, a candidate for the office of State Superintendent of Public In- truction, told the Kiwanis club here today in a non-political address. “Our national bill for education the past year was two billion one hundred and fifty million dollars,” suid Miss Palmer. “We have fine luildings, special teachers und mo- dern equipment. And yet the scandal in Chicago has resulted, not because of our school system but in spite of it. When things like this can happen and do happen, we may well ask if ting the worth of what we for in our schools, and if there is not a great deal of waste which might be eliminated if the public will hut take an intelligent interest in the problem Bi struction jing Character The situation has brought before educators and the public the neces- sity of building character of students and to emphasize the fundamentals in our school system, Miss Palmer said, % “We hear a great deal about fun- ‘dumental subjects,” she said, “It would be wonderful if we are able to teach everything in the — public chools but there is a limit here be- cause of thee: The public should consider, as well the educa- tors, what these fundamental sub- jects are, upon which public money is to be spent. Indeed, there is no such thing as public money, This is but the money which is paid by dif- ferent individuals into a common purse in order that all may have the benefit of certain privileges which they could not have by their own re- sources, “In our school circles we hear so much about making a living and the e of industry that the question irises sometime if we have not put too much stress upon the utilitarian value of what we get in school rather + than upon the making of great char- neters. We today teach everything from stenography to psychology with though all s are equally important.” In drilling the students in the fun- damentals of education and in build- ing his character, the teacher plays an all-important part, Miss Palmer said, in urgimg the maintenance of a standard of teaching in the pub- chools, Among thé necessities of education, Miss Palmer declared, was 2 broadening of the system of athle- s, or physical instruction, to in- clude a gr many boys and girls instead of the few who may be on the school teams, ‘firmer preparation in the broad know. dge needed by students taki®g commercial courses the schools. Good Basis Needed “All business courses require com- ipereial English, commercial spelling, Sommercial penmanship,” she said. “If these subjects are taught with the right concentration, in the grades, will it be necessary to em- phasize the commercial viewpoint later? As a public we have perhaps been interested in obtaining teachers who could teach a special subject with special emphasis rather than the fact that they are teaching boys and girls to become men and women.” Miss Palmer, in her brief talk, told of her travels in Europe the past summer as a North Dakota delegate to the World Sunday School conven- ion and her studies of the education- 1 systems abroad. She found at Rugby an ideal which might well pervade all school systems, she said. The boys are taught to be “gentle- men,” she said, and they are taught that “no gentleman lies, takes that which does not belong to him or plays cards for money.” These prin- ciples, she found, were driHed into the student by incorporation with the study of such subjects as Eng- lish, mathematics, and not as special courses. MANDAN NEWS REMAINS AT MANDAN “Rev. W. R.

OCTOBER 27 IS, DESIGNATED AS ROOSEVELT DAY Governor, in Proclamation, Urges Support For Na- tional Park Idea Observance of Monday, October 27, as “Roosevelt Day” in North Da- kota was urged today by Governor Nestos in a proclamation. He call- ed upon citizens to devote the day to consideration of the life, labor and ideals of Roosevelt, furthering the campaign for a Roosevelt Na- tional Park in the North Dakota Badlands and, the same day being “Navy Day,” to consider the value of the Navy in promoting peuce, prosperity und the welfare of the country.” “It is our desire that the beauty, grandeur and interest of the Bad- lands where he dwelt and developed the qualities of bedy and mind that contribute to success, should be set aside as a national park and opened to the people of America as a play- ground where the inspiration of Roosevelt's personality and the ser- vice he rendered to the world might mold nobler character und finer | ideals in the citizenship of the fu- ture,” the Governor said. “His birthday anniversary cannot be bet- ter employed by North Dakotans than to raise the funds required for the campaign to secure the estab- lishment of the Noosevelt National Park in the Badlands of North Da- kota.” J, H.

Chang-tso-lin, the Manchurian leader, was brought to a climax ‘today when three members of the Tisho Patriotic Association, all Jiu Jitsu experts, invaded the foreign office and forced their way into the private quarters of Baron Shidehara, foreign minister. When the trio demanded an in- terview with the foreign minister he was absent. They then upbraided the foreign minister for what they termed his ““spineless” policy to ward China. In their rage, the visitors attack- ed and severely beat the private secretary of the foreign minister and other secretaries. The police urrested the trio.
