(ere time ata ers | Revives Barn Dance To Rout Depression o 70 Rout Der i Clay Center, Kansas, Oct. 26. v (®)—Memory of a time when the Pioneer's recreation was as mea- ger as his income suggested to William Tempero, dirt farmer, a Plan of attack which has routed his depression, His musings centered about the old barn dance, one of the few and simple pleasures of the Prairie folk. He recalled they rode miles to shuffle rough boots over rougher boards in the rhythm of scraping fiddlers. “This,” said the farmer, “seems to be the age of revivals—old val- ues, old songs, old customs, old overcoats — why not the barn dance?” Accordingly Tempero made a slight rearrangement gf his live- stock. Dobbin and Blossom were moved from the barn as a step toward moving the wolf from the door. A dance floor was built. Can- vas was hung from the walls. Gas Stoves were installed. So that no scarcity of funds might wreck his project, Tempero Placed two bins in his barnyard. Into these the rural youth was Privileged to heave a sack of wheat, or two sacks of corn, and proceed to the dance floor with his lady. Now an orchestra from town blares forth modern dance tunes except on Thursday nights, when those who do not care two straws | for the modern vogue shuffle through the old square dances and revel in the waltz, ROTARY 10 FETE 4-1 MEMBERS AT DINNER & Burleigh Youngsters Will Give| Farg Entertainment At City Auditorium Tonight Approximately 250 members of 4-H clubs in Burlegih county will be guests of the Bismarck Rotary club at. @ banquet in the gymnasium of the World War Memorial building at 6:3C o'clock tonight.

ENROLLMENTS) Students Bodies At Agricultural College and University Shrink, However Enrollments at four of North Da-, kota’s institutions of higher learn- ing surpassed those of last year, a decrease was noted in the registra- tion at the university and agricul- tural college, and another college re- mained about the same as 1931, ac- cording to a survey covering the fall quarter registrations. Figures for the state normal schools at Minot and Dickinson showed registrations this year ex- ceeded the 1931 total. Minot passed the 700 mark for the first time in the history of the school while Dick- inson reported an enrollment of 465, to send its enrollment to its highest Peak in history, topping by 61 the Previous high reached last fall. Available statistics from the Ellen- dale Normal and Industrial school and the Wahpeton School of Science indicate record enrollment for the fall quarter there. Ellendale had more than 300 students register for the fall quarter the opening day, set- ting a new record for first-day regis- tration. A new fall enrollment rec- ord was established on the opening! day at Wahpeton, and estimates, based on the first-day registration last year, bring the 1932 total to 475 a8 compared with 445 last year. With 297 students beginning class work at the state teachers’ college at| Mayville, school officials believed late registrants would bring the to- tal above that of last year. A marked increase was seen in the number of senior college students. The University of North Dakota at Grand Forks and the state agricul- tural college at Fargo both reported drops in the number of enrollments for the quarter. The university had 1,468 students registered, 121 less than in 1931, and the Fargo institu- tion, with 1,286 registrations, had 154 fewer students than last year.

Administrative cost of the com- munity chest is approximately 3 per cent of total collections. Although the final budget of the chest in 1932 was $87,670, nearly $100,000 was sub- scribed. J. A. Burger, executive board mem- ber, said he believed this probably was the lowest administrative cost for any community chest in the United States, and was a strong argument for the chest system as compared with individual campaigns by various agencies.

D., Oct. 26.—Hundreds of eastern North Dakota residents are having their fuel problems analyzed in the lignite survey which is being conducted in major cities by the In- dustrial Development Committee of the Greater North Dakota associa- tion, cooperating with the school of mines at the state university. Numerous home and industrial heating plants which have been con- suming foreign coal are pledged to a {trial of native lignite, having learned \that present equipment could proper- ly and economically handle fuel from this state. By accurate computation in the Fargo inspections to date, 25 per cent +of those fuel users visited agreed to jtry lignite. Ten per cent already were burning state lignite part time —except in the extreme cold weather. Seven per cent had been converted al- ready this fall to lignite, and were having satisfactory results. Only 10 Per cent had satisfactory equipment, but were using foreign coal, while 11 per cent had unsatisfactory equip- ment, and could not effect savings, they were told by the engineers, with- out changing equipment. Freedom jfrom extra firing was given by 13 per cent as the reason why they did not use lignite. Representing the school of mines in the inspection of heating units is Dean L. C. Harrington, dean of the college of engineering. He has had charge of surveys in the lignite field, and field sampling trips, as well as supervising research and testing of lignite. He is especially experienced in power plant fuel problems. He is being assisted by E. J. O'Keefe, chief engineer of the university power plant, who has more than 30 years experience in lignite work, and has written many articles on the subject; Prof. W. E. Budge, associate profes- sor of ceramic engineering, who was associated with the late Dean Bab- cock in work on lignite; Arthur Koth, graduate engineering student from Wishek, who for two years has been carrying on research work in lignite; student with two years’ experience in lignite survey and fuel problems. The survey, which has been carried on in eastern North Dakota cities, re- ceived the cooperation of Trades and Labor assemblies, Chambers of Com- merce, and independent fuel dealers. Lignite has been advocated only where it was learned by the inspec- tors that an applicant's equipment was such that he could actually save | money through the use of this state | product.

FUR OWNERS The U. S. Government Can’t Be Wrong The Bureau of Standards, through the cooperation of fur manufacturers, fur tan- ners and dry cleaners, has long since completed a series of tests to establish a bet- ter method for thoroughly cleaning fur garments, yet retaining the natural oil es- sential to the appearance and pliability of the material. Taken from Bulletin No. 360 Department of Commerce “THE METHOD IS BASED ON THE DRY CLEANING PROCESS. Since the most delicate fabrics are cleaned by this process it is obvious that the fur will be sub- jected to a minimum amount of wear and tear in contrast to . . . methods in which solid material is rubbed onto the fur to absorb the dirt and then beaten out.
