The intention is that this shall be symbolic ofthe respect felt towards those who made the supreme sacrifice, and to recognize ina suitable way the ,ervices of all those \\I:ose names appeared on the honor roll.The proposed location of this memorial is near the southwest entrance to thecampus. It is hoped that the road now leading in to the campus from the bridgemay be removed and two parallel roads be built in its place. The memorial will belocated between these two roads, about forty feet east of the windbreak that runsback of Kiehle and Robertson buildings.\Vhen this project was first considered, the cost was put at a m1l11mUm of$2500, but the response already made by the student body alone shows that such asmall amount will not be considered.Mr. Selvig once expressed a wish that it should be built of marble. We alwaystry to come up to your wishes, Mr. Selvig, and we hope that we can help this wishuf yours to be realized.

To THE CLASS OF 1920:MARION LEROY BURTONPresident, University of MinnesotaEvery one of you is to be congratulated heartily upon the privileges which youhave enjoyed at the Northwest School of Agriculture. Your school has exerted apowerful influence over a large area of our state. It has stood for the highest idealsin scholarship and character. Your campus is permeated with a splendid atmosphereand an excellent school spirit.It is your task to make sure that the communities in which you live recognizethe high value to the state of the school because of the influence you exert and theresults which you accomplish. Remember the public will judge your school by yourlife. Strive at all times to be a worthy representative of the Northwest School.May life bring to each of you its abiding satisfactions.Very sincerely yours,M. L. BURTON.

ROSCOE W. THATCHERDean, Department of AgricultureTo THE STUDENTS AND FRIENDS OF THE NORTHWEST SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE:I sometimes wonder whether you appreciate how seriously and vitally interestedin your welfare the administrative officers of the University really are. Geographically,you are farther away from us than are many of the schools of other states;but educationally you occupy a very definite and very important place in our plansand thoughts.Now that the question as to whether the University really ought to maintainor to expand its secondary vocational schools is being seriously considered by theeducators of the state, it becomes more and more apparent that there exists no stateagency other than the University which can maintain vocational schools for the benefitof young people who reside outside of regularly organized local high school districts.Hence, the Schools of Agriculture are rightly made a part of the University’s statewideactivities; and we rejoice with you that in this way you are afforded an opportunityto pursue a course of education which encourages you to go directly into rurallife problems with courage. zeal, and intelligence, and with every assurance of successin developing happy, useful farm home life.Sincerely yours,R. W. THATCHER.

Judging from the way they talk, one would thinkthey are full grown men at fifteen or sixteen, while in reality all the bluster andblow is a surplus of infantile lingo wholly incomprehensible and senseless.At this age they walk along with their hands in their pockets and a stoop to theirshoulders, (their conception of a man). The time between fifteen and twenty yearsis the “I don’t care age” for boys and that saying certainly holds true in most cases.They will invariably have a girl (a steady at that!)-and earnestness and jealousyrun rampant. Indeed, they are so earnest that no amount of persuasion or argumentcould make them think differently.All this seems to have been decreed and comes within the life of every man.just watch the boy-he will get over this stage, and he has every chance to be a man.
