In Memoriam.

Died Sept. 8, 1908, at Cakes, N. D
Wilbert McGinnes, youngest child
j. w. and Ona McGinnes. The bereav'
parents have the sympathy of a va
circle of friends and acquaintances.
The sunshine in our home is gone
1t seems no other day will dawn
Naught but cold dark world I see
ALI happiness seems lost to me.
Kind friends all tell me not to grieve
But in Savior to believe,
That we will meet our precious boy
Where none must part and all is Joy.
None but mother e'er can know
The wild despair the cruel blow,
That freeze the sense and break the heart
When she must from her darling part.
'Tis sorrow deep and no relief,
No words OF comfort still the grief,
That she must suffer, oh for years,
And nothing dry her scalding tears.
1t seems that will bless the day
1 am consigned to mother clay,
And with my darling on my breast
Oh then for ages sleep and rest.

The speakers all seemed to vie with

While there had been some dissensions

Happy Surprise Party.

Last Friday evening Rev. c. w.
Samuelson was the victim of a sur
prise party. A meeting of the Sunday
school teachers Of the Swedish church
had heen called to meet at the home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. H. Gilman at eight
o'clock and as this meeting was about
to adjourn over thirty young people
walked in without roll call or any
apologies for disturbing the meeting.
Rev. Samuelson might have thought
at first he had made serious mistake
in announcing the meeting then in ses-
sion. He, however, soon realized that
he was the subject of surprise party.
Games were means of amusement and
when supply was exhausted, refresh
ments were in order. Albert johnson,
in behalf of the party, expressed their
regret for his departure and their well
wishes for his future and as a con-
clusion produced package containing
Ia gift Of twenty-four dollars. Rev.
Samuelson expressed his gratitude and
said ''to be victim of a surprise party
is not so bad as one at first might
think. .'.~ He brought the good news
that it is his intention to return next
spring as an ordained minister and
make his home here permanently. The
crowd left after realizing it was Satur-
day morning all rejoicing over the sue
cess of the event. Rev. Samuelson left
for Rock Island Tuesday morning and
will continue his course in theology.

Platform is Explicit.

jamestown Capital: The republicans
of the state have adopted one Of the
strongest and best platforms ever put
before voters in North Dakota. It is
explicit in many respects and has taken
decided stand upon many questions in
a wsy to win the confidence of voters.
By the outspoken and direct platform
the party has taken an advanced and
popular position; every plank will
stand the test Of time as to its wisdom.
The party, by this platform, has got
ten up-to-date, taken an unusually
strong position and stands in the lead
in the state.
