•KTINQ WITH REGENTS
The heads of a number of the
educational institutions are meet
ing at Bismarck with the Statt
•Board of Regents for the discus
sion of matters of interest relat
ing to their schools.
This is the second meeting of
the board since its appointment
-and the members are assimilating
some of the matter collected on
the recent committee trips to the
different schools. Each ol the ed
ucational institutions were visit
ed and the physical properties
and the business methods inves
tigated. The information secured
on this trip will be used for for
mulating an uniform system of
reports and accounts, which is to
be established as soon as possi
ble. At present each school is con
ducting its methods along wide
ly di tie rent lines.
The committees of the board,
on the lour ol the state, did not
touch upon the educational fea
tures ol the schools. These have
already been provided for by the
former boards, which selected tho
heads ol the institutions and the
members of the faculty for the
coming scholastic year, prior to
Hie Stale Board of Regents as
suming charge.
The board will later on name a
commissioner of education who
will outline for submission to the
board, any needed changes that
are required in the educational
system of North Dakota. It is pre
sumed this report will eliminate
all duplication, if any exists, and
will probably result in each insti
tution being required to give in
struction only those courses
prescribed by law.
At an early date an education
al expert will be .named to make
a survey of the state schools, with

a view of securing the greatest
possible efficiency from the
teaching force, the maximum use
of the class rooms, the highest
educational value of the different
buildings and other information
that may lead to a reclassification
of the curricula and class room
schedules in order to secure, in a
scientific manner, the best possi
ble results from existing condi
tions.

FREE FROM DEBT
Many people of this vicinity
who have been watching the Wah
petoji hospital with unmistakable
pride lrom its inlancy about four
years ago when it was built up to
the present time, are more than
pleased to learn that the Wahpe
t.on hospital is free from debt.
Tlie records at the Register of
Deeds' ofl'ice shows that this
hospital has paid off its $5,000.00
mortgage completely a few days
ago.
Dr. O'Brien the attending phy
sic is to be more than congratu
lated by the people of this vicin
ity ,as his hospital is one of the
you
best in the northwest, carrying
with him a splendid corp of well
trained and efficient nurses. This
again goes to show that Wahpe
ton is a fast growing and prosper
ous city whose advantages are be
ing sought after in more ways
than one.

Well just a word to the Hank
inson ball team, we will say that
you have qiore" nerve than we
thought that you would have, by
just putting on uniforms and
triyng to make the people believe
that you represent this great Am
erican game. Too bad boys, we
feel sorry for you as there is no
telling what mqy come of it but
let us give you a piece of advice.
Next year don't try to do as this
year, but buy a quarter section
and "stock" it up, raise a few
chickens -and take good care of
the corn that you should plant.
Get married and live life happy.
Too
ba(j boys but it is true. Poor
old Narum would swing so hard
at the ball and miss that the
waves in the air caused by its con*,
eussion with the willow that Mr.
Boll the owner of Island Park lost
several big trees and others look
kind of pale around the gills.
This was one of the best games
of recent years ever played on Is
land park by any ball team. It was
so full of thrills and exciting and
close decision plays that it kept
the spectators in one continuous
round of excitement all the way
through. There was 1466 paid ad
mission fans in attendance. The
grand stand was full a long time
before the game started. When
Hankinson scored in the opening
inning the Hankinson fans went
wild. And of course so did a fewi
Little Twins fans that bet there
money on somebody else's judg
ment.
In the fifth inning with Gilles
on third and Kent on second and
with two gone Lyle with already
two strikes on him hit one clear
into the tall limbers that borders
the Ottertail which scored two
runs and would have been a home
run if it had not been for a
ground rule.
Just a word about our boys.
They have proven to»the people of
the Little Twins that they can be
real gentlemen and yet be ball
players. It is generally thought
that a ball player is a roughneck,
but when you get up into the
class that this team attained their
ability came from clean living.
The Times takes this opportunity
to thank you for the fans on this
side of the river and hope that the
course of events will see you all
back with us again next year.
