Har- per, president of Evansville college, Evansville, Ind., who addressed the general session Wednesday night, spoke again on Thursday's program. A definite plan of educating public opinion to the advantages of a state board of education should begin in normal departmetns and summer schools in classes of school adminis- tration from which students would g) ‘out as missionaries in the cause of making this change, Miss Palmer suggested. Integrated System Needed “A state-wire need is an integrated Bystem of state edueation,” she said. “The present situation would indi- ‘cate that the only occupation recog- wiized in North Dakota is teaching. “We have five large professional ®chools for training teachers and but mall provision for all other occupa- tions. If junior college courses for (pre-professional work could be au- thorized and developed in the normal pchools, such plan would justify their present size and expense of operation. “The pocket books of the taxpayers fand young people would be benefited, flor many who cannot now go away to ollege could take two years of college work near home. Or one or two of tthe five professional schools might be ‘devoted to industrial work.

MEMBERS OF GLU Jamestown Man Sounds Warn- ing Against Disrupting Edu- cational Systems Sounding ® warning against dis- rupting the present day educational system, A. O. Elstad, superintendent of schools at Jamestown, urged cau- tion in curbing educational policies in an address to members of the Cos- mopolitan club Thursday noon. In diagnosing problems confronting leaders in tne field of education, El- stad said that “any retrenchments from progressive policies. should. be made only after careful thought.” Some means of adjustment should be made to equalize the burden on taxpayers in the larger communities, according to Elstad, who said that the cities were not properly compen- sated for expenditures incurred in ‘educating students from rural dis- tricts coming to the city to school. A. E. Thompson, superintendent of Schools at Washburn, spoke to the members of the club, recalling the days when he and J. 8. Fevold, club president, were classmates at St. Olaf’s college.

WOMEN are becoming more and more aware of the fact that a dollar has no absolute value. It’s elastic.
