The doors of the Winifred schools will be opened Wenesday morning, September 3, 1919, and a hearty welcome will be extend- ed to all. The people of this community will do all possible to make the schools this year one of the very best. The courses offered in the new high school will be in strict ac- cordance with those adopted by the High School association of Fergus county. Your boy or girl may go from here to any oth- er school and connect up with the work, or we can take them from another school and their work will be carried on here without a break. This system will benefit all concerned. In conjunction with the regu- lar course, music, manual train- ing, home economics and ath- letics will be offered. Special attention will be given the social and moral life of all students. Health habits will be carefully observed. Observing teachers realize the crying need of a vitalized hygiene for school children. In every school there are children with hollow chests, weak eyes, decayed teeth and constant colds. These children may have been told over and Estray. over to stand and sit correctly; they haye been told the correA position in regard to light when reading; they have been told to keep their teeth clean and to breathe lots of pure air. But simply telling is not enough. By that method children do not even learn as much as to enable them, to blow their nose the proper way. Health habits must be trained into these children. They can learn to do only by doing. The teacher must show them how. What children know about ! health habits will never make ! them grow into sturdy citizens. Training in health habits makes happier citizens, and this is one of our aims. ! Remember, we want your boys and girls with us this year. WILBUR SHERRARD, Principal. Real Wealth.

Aug. 9. --The war de- partment made public yesterday a com- plete price list on all subsistence stores available for sett to the public through the parcel post or through mu- nicipal selling agencies. Costs of the commodities to the government, the department said, had been regarded entirely In fixing the prices of sale, whils are materially tearer than pre- vailing market rates. The prices quoted are f. o. b. from storage points In each of the 18 dis- tricts into which the country is divid- ed for war department subsistence purposes. The department is now re- distributing the food supplies in the 13 areas in order that each may have its proportion per population of the 72 articles offered for public sal.. Gross Weight Given. The price tables include the pile* per ear or Individual units in each case and also the price per case or larger container. It also shows the gross weight per can and per ease In order that the public may arrive at the price they will have to pay by adding parcel post rates from the nearest distributing point to the . home of the consumer to the f. o. b. prices quoted. Municipal selling agencies will com- pute freight rates on the shipments to he added to the price quoted by the war department. On the parcel post distribution no orders will be received direct by the war department, but only through the postoffice department, which will requisition the supplies by ease or larger package, the postmas- ters In turn breaking these shipments ni) Into unit packages of a single can or several cans. Sale Starts August 18. Sales to municipalities at the new prices will begin as soon as the sur- plus property offices at the . various zone supply offices and depots have received the quotations made public yesterday. Sales to individuals through the parcel post will be Inaugurated August 18 and before that time all postmasters will have a price quota- tion list from which the consumer may order. The department emphasized the fact that no change in policy of sales to municipalities had been made, the only alteration being in prices. If a munieipality is unable to buy or sell foodstuffs owing to its charter or local laws, the department will ship to it upon consignment subsistence stores In not less than case or carton lots, the goods to be paid for or re- turned within 30 days from date of receipt. Shipments of this character, how- ever will be made only when the mayor or head of the local government either acts as the federal government's agent and supervises the distribution of the food or appoints someone else to so act.

On the second day of Septem- ber the voters of Fergus county will have an opportunity of vot- ing on county bond issues that are of great importance at • this time. The questions before the people are for a bond issue for roads and a bond issue for the re- lief of the drought stricken sec- tions. The bond issue will fur- nish work for the farmers of this vicinity, and will provide the means for the financing of sev- eral lateral roads that have been open for years, and also will per- mit the opening of new roads to the present county highways and placing them in as good condition as our present Lewistown road. It is the only means of procuring finance for road projects at this time and applies past experience in matters of finance, and is a practical way of getting more roads and better roads in a new country where the topographical conditions are such that the build- ing of roads is an expensive propo- sition. The state of New York bonded to con stsuct the Erie canal nearly 100 years ago and no one can offer criticism of those who fostered the movement. If the bond issue that confronts the vot- ers on September 2 carries, the road proposition will be financed at once and pay day will come twenty years hence, when the country will be developed and its ! resources and increase in value will take care of the 'payment of ! the bonds without any extra bur- den to the tax payer. Fergus county bonds are in great demand and with aid from the federal and state governments the new- er sections of the county will have just as good roads as are found around flobson, Stanford, Buffa- lo an -r settled sections of the the amount of have to be raised to repay our part nd issue will be our territory, need the proloyed roads. that er this t and to in - his property. th and wor in th Her need year • lunise crease the value of The special session of the legis- lature just closed provided in the so-called Belden bill for a bond issue for the purchase of seed, feed and family maintenance for the drought -stricken parts of the county.
