What does the Red Cross Christmas
Stamp Mean?
1t means that you are asked to

money, multiplied by thousands, will
yield a noble sum for the maintenance

the frfendles, and that your goodwill
reaches beyind the few whomiyou love
to the many whom you are bidden to

1t means that the spirit of Christmas
stirs in the heart of Christendom, and
that you respond to this spirit by link

from other states, who often prove ur-
desirable, both from an educational and
a moral point of view. With the ever
increasing demand for qualified teachers
throughout the state, there is no prob
ability that the supply will meet our
needs, before there is a training school
located in the ives tern part of the
state. -...@ e. ,'
The value of reference libraries and
supplementary work Of various kinds is
being recognized more and more by di-
rectors and teachers, and many schools
have been supplied with libraries, to
which books are added from time to
time. Where the districts cannot af-
ford the expense, teachers, h o
officers and patrons furnish the money,
by subscription, entertainments a nd
socials. -
It is apparent that the work Of the
past two years has convinced teachers,
directors and patrons that there must
be unity of effort for the best success
in the work. l believe this Office, for the
most part, has the support Of the Ward
county people. We feel that the con-
tinuation of this spirit will result in
better schools, better teachers, better
buildings and more complete equip
ment.
wish again to express my apprecia-
ton of your cooperation and assistance
in all matters pertaining to educational
work. Yours very truly,

The we'll known and popular starters,
w. B. Talbot, in his firm yet ever
gentlemanly way, contributed much to
keep things moving evenly and salts
.factorily among h e great horde of
:h6rsemen, while the decisions and rul-
ings of the judges, than whom no race
meet can boast of better, sp eedi ly
brought order out of anything that at
all favored of dissatisfaction or unseen
II conduct on the part of any connected
with any of the track events. On the
first and second days the judges were
Nessrs. VIM. Sadlier of this city, Alb.
Hunt of Patterson and Ed. Anderson of
Portal, the two first-named gentlemen
also acting in same capacity on the third
day., when Mr.. Wilson of Minot took
the place of Mr.. Anderson on the board,
the latter being excused on account of
other engagements that demanded his
time.
The attendance was far greater than
the management dared to look for on
any one of the three days, there being
not less than 1900 on Tuesday, which
number was enlarged to at least 250e
on Wednesday, while on Thursday the
crewd was .variously estimated at from
1900 to 2S00. 1t was certainly a splendid
recognition on the part of our people of
the great efforts of the management to
give them. a run for eirmoney, which
all will admit they received-a and the
right change back.
