A DEPARTMENT OF EDU-
I" CATION.
ONE QP THE several proposals that
have been laid before President-
Elect Harding for his contemplated
leorganization of government depart-
ments is that there be created" a new
Department of Education to succeed
the Bureau of Education now conduct
ed as. a part of the Interior Depart-
ment The- present Bureau is "headed
by Commissioner of Education Philan-
der P. Claxfon and while there has
been voiced some criticism of his poli-
cies it ls "worthy of note just here
that the proposal for the enlargement
of the work of the Bureau to the dig-
nity of a governmental Department is
inspired by other reasons than mere
criticism of the work that is now be-
ing done by the Bureau.
As a general proposition it may be
stated as the theory of The Bulletin
that the "United States government
should enlarge its activity in educa-
tional matters for there is certainly
no more important domestiq problem-
than that of education. Just how ihist
work can be enlarged by the federal
government however -without more or'j
less serious conflict with the educa
tional work that is being done by the
"various states and by religious denom
inations is a problem that may be-
come involved in the consideration of
a proposed new Department. Obvi
ously the Government could do. little
more with a Department of Education
than it has been doing through the
Bureau o Education unless the sovr
crnment be prepared to expend con-

of the masses of the people. In other
words the Government must put a lot
of its inoney into education before it
will be. justified in further attempting
to assume leadership in the eduea-
.tional movement
The other side of the matter is so
ably presented in the following.' edi-
torial from the "Washington Post that
we reproduce it herewith: .
"There are indications that -in the
next Congress pressure will be exert-:
Led to secure the enactment of a lawl
creating a new executive department!
of the government to be knovn asj
the department of education. Already
potent influences are at work in sup-
port of the bill now pending. Every!
member of the Senate and House is;
to be urged to give this measure hisj
"approval.
"On the merits of the project a
very strong argument can -be ad vane-1
ed. If the government considers that
the interests of agriculture and com-
morcc and labor are worthy of .sepa-
rate departments what reason can bd
found lfor refusing to establish a de-
partment of education'? The govern-
ment already has recognized educa-?
.tlon as z. subject foi' its special at-i
tontion and for yearjj it has had bu?i
reaus working in .conjunction witli
the slate lfor the advancement of learnfi
Ing. The chief question is whether
the subject and the work: in its bej
half require a separate (department)
or whether the various -bureaus now1
in existence and those which may b
""established are competent to deal
with it ' ' .

FARGO N. D. Dec. 29. This is the
story of a dajnty little white hen the
most coveted fowl of Nort Dakota.
A year ago as js'ho scratched for
worrits intho barnyard of Carl Zehr-
feld of New .liockford she was only-
one of the flock wjth no marks of dis
tinction or individuality. Today she (
reigns supreme bjver all fowl of the
state and her breakfast luncheon and
dinner are served at regular periods
served with au infinite taste that!
tempts the appetite.
Around the right ankle dF the lady
is a thin gold band emblematic of the
state egg laying Ichampionship with
which Little. Emma cackled homo af-
ter establishing a stale record of 301
eggs in one year. The world's rec-
ord is 333. The contest which has
been in progres.s for a year at the
North Dakota Agricultural College
hero wa9 'for 'months an egg-and-egg
race. Then in the last three weeks
little Emma swung into liich and Jolt
