The National Association of Manu-

$1,5OO,0O0 on it's membership at it's
last convention. 1t is now being
noised around in certain circles that
the amount is not forthcoming as
rapidly as contemplated, and much
speculation is being INDUCED in by
some of those who were to have
charge of it as to whether it will ma
terialize or not. Many of the en-
p,oyers of labor recognize the danger
OF placing SO large an amount in the
hands of irresponsible dreamers,
whose sole aim is to create strife and
breed discomfort, in order that they
may hold lucrative positions at the
expense of the men who are inter-
ested in the welfare of the nation.

KNUDsoN e. HoLMQUlsT.
The Company Operating Havelock's
Largest General Store.

The Knudson & Holmquist Co., has
been established in Havelock less than
one year, but in that short time the
company has succeeded in perman-
emily establishing a business to be
proud of, and which will grow with
the years. Mr.. Knudson came to Have
lock from Anaconda, Mont, and
go-ahead spirit which grows best the
further west you go. He brought to
Havelock an indomitable energy and
business ability that enabled him
to take right hold and make things
go. He grasps every new idea that
will push his business and bring him
into closer touch with his customers.
Mr. Holmquist was Lancaster coun-
ty farmer for many years and made
a success of that business. He is
making an equal success of the mer-
camille business. The rapid growth
of this establishment is an evidence
of hard work, fair dealing and enter
prise It is a general store in fact as
we'll as in name-groceries, furnish
ings shoes-everything that a general
store is supposed to carry. Knudson &
Holmquist have large patronage
from the shop men, and in city like
Havelock this is a dig business asset.
The managers are heartily in sympa-
thy with trades unionism and do not
hesitate to say SO.
