A good many farmers have said

On Thanksgiving Day. Mr. and Mrs.
N. A. Stewart entertained a large number
Of relatives and friends, prior to their
leaving Bottineau for Williston. After a
sump,uous repast, to which ample Justice
was done by all present, the evening was
spent very enjoyably.
Mrs. Stewart, being called to the chair,
the following program was rendered.
Instrumental Music by Miss Stewart.
Several songs and hymns by the young
people. Reci:ations by Misses Essie
Stewart, Pansy Stewart. May Gorrill and
Hattie Kinley, also by Masters Spurgeon
Stewart and Harry Gorrill. Dialogue
between Mr.. w. H. Gorrill and Miss
Essi. Stewart was rendered in good style
Loud applause followed. Speeches were
given by Messrs Samuel Kinley, N. A.
Stewart and w. A. E. Maddox. Mr..
Samuel Stover being called upon. declined
to give a speech. but put his foot on the
platform as did also Mr.. Thomas Mckay,
the platform was a novel one-the skin Of
prairie wolf.
The proceedings were brought to close
by Sacred Songs and Prayer.
The best wishes of all present follow
the host, hostess and their family and we
hope that health and prosperity will be
theirs in their future Home.

SAmerican;Sms."

Many are the books on America which
have been written by foreigners. and,
much as we do in visiting the Old World,
they remark. not always in compliment
ary way, upon the points wherein our
speech and manner differ from theirs
These peculiarities they group under the
head of "Americanism Our English
cousins have had much amusement from
our use of guess for think" or 'sur-
pose,' and mad for 'anger," forgetting
that their early writer's used the words in
exactly the same sense. 1t is simply the
survival of the old English in new land.
The terse phrases of America they look
upon as slang, not realizing that a young
nation. in vigorous development and
graphing with new problems. needs
practically a new language. Truly. we
have not always improved on the mother
tongue, but if our visitors would overlook
particulars, and generalize more. they
would find some "Americanisms" to ad-

no one there could be found willing to
lend hand; he dumped the corpse into a
