A Family Affair

Ton Wednesday, at u, noon, the marriage
of Miss Nina B. Pullman and S. Ernest
Lamson was solemnized by Rev. ]. G.
Dingle. The wedding was entirely pri-
vate, only members of the family being
present. After the ceremony there was a
wedding lunch and the happy couple
took the 3:15 train for Grand Forks
where they expect later to reside.
The groom is a travelling salesman for
the wholesale house of Wright, Barrett
g. Stillwell of st. Paul and is we'll known
in all parts of North Dakota as genial,
pleasant fellow and has host of friends
and acquaintance who will congratulate
him on the prize he has drawn in the ma
trimonial lottery.

test young ladies, and was one of our
social ornaments, and she will be greatly
missed among her associates. She look
ed very charming in her bridal attire of

The Graduating Exercises.

For different reasons and for several
years no class has regularly graduated
from the Pembina high school until this
year, and in fact the present class is the
first that has taken the complete course
as at present laid out by the state board.
The class of '99 consists of Lucy B. Con-
my, Thomas w. Chisholm, Fred Ryan
and Jas. c. Wardwell.
Prot. Godward is authority for the
statement that it an exceptionally bright
class and the exercises of Wednesday
evening showed his judgment to be cor
rect. A ten minute essay in itself may
seem small thing on which to base an
opinion of students ability and accom-
|plishments, but after all, education in its
highest and best sense is the power to
think, to act and to accomplish. And,
as the artist in one stroke describes a
free hand circle, or as the musician in
one brief bar Of music, or as the mech
anic in some small detail of work, proves
complete power, so the graduate in the
essay or::oration, shows capabilities for
greater and more extended work.
We regret that the many events of the
past week which necessarily call for ex-
tended notice. crowds our mention of the
! exercises on Wednesday to so brief a
space. and we can only speak in general
of what we would like to detail
The class as whole reversed the usual
order As to sex. The girls usually out

Three Good Sermons.

Three notable sermons were given tc
large congregations in this city on Sun
day. The first in the morning at the M
L" church by Rev. ]. G. Dingle the pas
tor. The occasion was the Baccalaureate
sermon to the graduating class of the
Pembina high school and the subject
Books. His theme was that books
were the stepping stones to the highes,
realms of knowledge and also might be
the means of descent to the lowest
depths. The sermon took in a wide
range and was full Of illustration and re-
ferences, and bore evidence OF study and
thought, eloquently and originally ex.
pressed.
In the afternoon at the PRESBYTERIAN
church Rev. MIR. Hall preached on topics
appropriate to the near approach Of
Memorial day. Mr.. Hall spoke clearly
and torcibly and handled his subjects
with skill and logic and spoke them like
an American citizen ought. MIR. Hall
believes that the hand of God is direct.
ing this nation, and that the war and its
results,past and prospective, are part Of
the irrepressible conflict, between right
and wrong.
In the evening the Episcopal church
was prettily decorated with flags and
flowers and was crowded to its limits tc
listen to the Memorial services and ser.
mon by Rev. Mr.. Peabody of Hallock,
the former pastor here. Mr.. Peabod,
gave an eloquent discourse touching or
current events, and the war of the re-
bellion. He criticised the mercenar,
spirit that that in both wars deprived
soldiers in the field of needed food and
raiment, for the sake of dollars. He
paid a high tribute to the soldiers ofbotl
wars and called on the people to remem
Der how much they owed these men for
the sacrifices they had made.
This reporter does not often get to
church three times on Sunday, blu,
would make the effort most any pleasant
day to hear three such sermons again,
and that is considerable of compliment
we think.

entertainment at Kittson Hall Of which

The drills, marches and music, in exc

large amount of successful labor on the
part Of both teachers and pupils and was
rendered accordingly. The marching OF
the pupils Of Miss Moran's grade was re.
markably proficient. while the smaller
ones from Miss Oldham's rooms were
just too sweet for anything. The oper-
