ST. PATRlck's FAIR
Catholic Ladies Arranging for Big
Time Tuesday and Wednesday
in Opera House. Supper to
be Served Both Evenings.

The committees have been appointed
and the work is progressing very nicely
for St. Patrick's church fair which will
be held in the opera house Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings. October 9th and
2Sth. AS has been the custom for sew
eral years the ladies of the church soci-
eties have met at regular intervals for
work and as usual will have practical
and fancy articles for sale. An extra
fine assortment of articles have been
procured for the various booths and the
display alone will be orthy of few
hours time.
The hall will be decorated in appro-
pirate style and arrangements of booths
will be given special attention and it
is sufficient to say that anything in
charge of the ladies of this society will
be right in every minutia.
The suppers will be features where the
men will take prominent part, not in
the preparation and serving but in the
consumption and paying, and but very
few mothers and wives will be expected
to prepare suppers at their home on Tues
day and Wednesday evenings. No ques-
tions will be asked as to what kind of a
supper it is to be- 1t is simply neces-
sary to know that it is to be served by
the ladies of St. Patrick's church from
S 80 O. clock.
The ladies practical booth will be in
charge of Mrs. Frank Lish and assis-
tants; doll booth, Mrs. w. A. Mcclure,

Postal Inspector in City Looking
Up Advisability Of Improving
Manning Service. Other
Changes in Rural Deliveries.

About the first Of November, number
Of important chdnges will be made in
the rural mail service out of the Dickin-.
son post Office. which. in most cases,
will be an Improvement for the patrons.
The most important change will be the
establishing Of daily service between:
Dickinson and Manning. Inspector Brad
ford of the post Office department was IN
town this week and in consultation with
Postmaster Lawrence, Mail carrierPal-
mer and others as to the advisability Of
a daily service. He was favorably i'm
pressed with the idea and stated that he
would recommend daily schedule. It
may take some time to bring about the
service but will be a fine thing for Man
ming when it does come. Z:
Another change will be made in the
New England service. The contract calls
for a daily service in summer and three
times week in the winter. The change
to the latter will be made November I.
It is the general opinion that when the
present contract expires, there will be
daily schedule between the two places
all the time.
I A new postoffice was recently estab-
lished at Novi Hradec but as yet there
is an exchange of mails only once a
week. The government has twice adver-
tized for bids but up to the present time
nothing has been done toward establish
ing twice week service. The depart
ment is advertising for bids second
time and it is hoped that there will be
results this time, Ii

GIRLS WILL PLAY
High School Girls to Organize
Two Basket Ball Teams. Began
Practice This Week. May
Arrange Games Later on.

The girls of the Dickinson high school
began practicing for basket ball team
this week and already plans are being
made for some good sport for the young
ladies during the winter. There are at
present II candidates out enough for
two teamA and as soon - they can be
tried out, the players win be divided
up into sides.
The practice began this week under
the direction of Miss Ella Gebeler, the
teacher of the fourth grade and the can
didates will practice two or three times
a week until they become experts at the
game.
Those who are trying for places on the
two teams include Margery Cuskelly.
Nellie Dinsdale, Maysie Dinsdale, Hazel
Fox, Margery Lytle. Beatrice Lish. Cola
Litch, Irene Walton, Gertrude Thompson,
Flossie Jennings and Jessie Pendergast.
This is not the first time that the high
school girls have taken up the game of
basket ball. Several years ago there
was fast team of girls and great in
terest in the sport. Public games were
held and for several winters the interest
was kept up but two or three years ago
the Dame had relapse and the school
has had no girls team until the present
time.

Them Voicein Law Making.

One of the most important questions

sembly will be the reapportionment Of
the state into legislative districts. Last
winter it will be remembered the leeis-

it is composed Of one hundred members
of the house and forty-seven senator's
Under the apportionment that was
adopted by the legislative assembly last
session. the western part Of North
Dakota gained very largely in represen-
tation., In order that extra votes might
be made on the slope one very unwieldy
district was created by including the
counties of Billings, Mercer and Oliver
in one senatorial district with one SEN
ator. and two representatives.
The counties of Adams, Hettinger and
Dunn at the time Of the last aDportion-
ment were all norsanized counties hence
they were not included in any legislative
district Under the bin introduced BY

long fly to left, on which Variant
