NORTH STAR COLLEGE
NOTES

- = . . Z
Last week the grain on the College
grounds was thrashed. The wheat
yiealded twenty two bushels to the
acre, and the flax thirteen.
Last week Prof. Sjostrand made a
trip to Thief River Falls and st. Hill
ane. He saw quite number of pros
pective students, and he says that
especially our Domestic Economy de-
partment will be strengthened from
that direction.
From North Dakota a contingent of
students will come this winter. At
Adams, Fairchilds, Edinburg and Nor
ton, Prof. Abrahamson visited all the
students that were here last year. All
expect to return with the exception of
Miss. Wallgren who has to stay at
home to help her mother who has
been in poor health lately.
On Sept. 10th the North Star Col
lege force was increased by one when
little baby girl came to stay with
Prof Sjostrand. May she grow strong
and live long and be joy to her
parents. Congratulations,
If you come to North Staar College
to attend any of it's departments, you
make no mistake, you know our &C..
comodations; they are the best; good
railroad connections make our loca.
ton splendid. AS regards the treat
1nent you will receive from the people
in the city, nothing remains to be
wished for; all are ready to heartily
welcome you. You will be made to
feel at home. The work done at the
College is both thoro and practical
When you have finished a course, if
you have done your duty, as we con-
scientiously strive to have you do,
you will be thoroly prepared for your
work.
Perhaps you have never thought of
entering college. Why not? If it is
not now possible, try to make it, or
encourage someone else to attend.
Then when he or she enters upon a
greater highway to success, you can
say and feel, part Of the credit is
mine.
Only two weeks until school begins.
Do your best to finish up the work
till then, so that you can begin. That
is why we have waited until October
LIST. "Well begun, half done"- applies
to school work as we'll as to other
work We have waited for you. Come

We have places where students
may work for board and room. Those

early, or they may be taaken. It would
also be desirable that you come early.
AS soon as school begins, we expect
to start boarding club where the

made possible will amount to quite
an item during the year.

LUXURIOUS SLEEPING CARS

The latest sleeping cars in India are
fitted luxuriosuly. Like most foreign
cars they are divided into compart-
ments, but a corridor runs from end
to end of the car. Each compartment
contains two berths. The upper berth
is of peculiarly ingenious design, SO
compactly constructed that a casual
observer would fail to see how it can
be lowered.
The compartments are large enough
to accommodate the luggage that any
two persons can require, and are fitted
up with all kinds of conVeniences.
Every compartment has an electric fan
under the control of the passengers,
and of the three electric lamps one
is a small night lamp that can be
kept burning ali night without incon-
Venience.
If party is too large for a single
compartment, says the Railroad Mans
Magazine. a sliding door connecting
with the adjoining compartment can
be thrown open. On the other hand,
If the passenger desires he can lock

his door, pull down his Venetian
blinds and be secure from intrusion.
At each end of the coach is a roomy
bathroom, with a large bath half sunk
in the floor, the wall lined with mir
rors and equipped with every imag-
Unable sanitary device. There is also
a servants compartment. 1t is said
that this coach has been approved by
the railway board as the standard type
for Indian rolling stock.

other and, taking the cue from Smith,
laughed at the navy man. Slowly
Sommers came down the steps. What
was wrong? He could not make out
exactly. He saw Marsh, who had
been standing uneasily far in the back
ground. and motioned to him.
The head craftsman came slowly.
He knew how important it was to
keep Sommers diverted from the main
object and was nerved to play his
part until the gun should be disposed
of.
II wouldn't go in there if 1 were
you, Mr.. Sommers," he suggested.
Mr.. Pinckney's in there with girl"
Sommers had been about the works
long enough to know Pinckney's repu-
tation among the men, but this open
Haunting in their very faces was worse
than anything he had imagined.
"Who is it?" he asked contemptuous-
ly.
81 think it's Smiths daughter, Lu-
cy," hesitated Marsh.
Sommers' face famed with anger.
He understood now, he thought, why
PinckneyN had been willing to leave
Smith on the job, even though he was
drunk. 1t all seemed simple. Smith
must buy immunity from punishment
In this shameful fashion.
Contempt for Pinckney and rage that
he should run the risk of being ruined
by the dirty work of such men reused
back and ran again up the steps to the
little Office, knocking fiercely this time
on the door.
"Pinckney, come out of there at
oncep' he shouted.
The command was so fiercely given
the general manager could not but
obey. He opened the door, coming out
slowly and, in response to Sommers'
gesture of command, followed him
down the steps.
Frances, her face partly covered
with the shawl, came after Pinckney
At the bottom of the steps the naval
officer turned on the manager of the
works with fierce contempt
''No wonder you keep Smith drunk
on the job!'' he exclaimed. Haven't
you got sense of shame enough not to
take his daughter In that Office before
all these men?"
Pinckney understood the mistake.
but 1T was anything to gain time now.
What business is that of yours p

girl exclaimed angrily. Lucy Smith
told me. O'Leary told her. He was
hurt because he wanted to be honest
She came to the house to find Mr.. Som
mers, and l borrowed her dress to
come here quickly and warn him"
Pinckney was smiling now with re-
lief. He saw he had a chance if he
could only get the girl out of the way.
And you believe such a story he
protested in a hurt tone. why. my
child. O'Leary was delirious. Smith
was drunk and struck him while they
were fighting-a plain, ordinary fight
between hot headed workmen.
What possible reason could I have
for wanting to injure this gun? To
have it n success means as much to
your father and to me as 1t does to
Somners. Think of the reputation Of
the plant. of these works, that your
father has spent his life in building
up!
"Why. Sommers is here now looking
after the gun himself. If he were to
hear such a story it might ruin your
fathers business. You don't want to
ruin your fathers business on the
word of a delirious workman, sore on
his foreman for beating him? Don't
you see how wrong you areF'
The girl hesitated. 1t ~did seem
plausible. O'Leary was hurt. He
had been fighting. And then she did
not imagine any one could be so con-
temptible as to fight a rival in the
way Pinckney must be doing if he
really had planned all that O'Leary
charged.
The girl felt that perhaps she had
been too hasty. She felt just bit
foolish, coming there in Lucy Smiths
clothes and possibly exposing herself
to ridicule before the men. She hest
tated, looking at Pinckney.
From the other end Of the furnace
room, where he had gone to intercept
Sommers, Smith had made out Lucy,
as he supposed, talking to Pinckney.
The drunken rage of the foreman
changed instantly to this new object
Of attack.
Why should Lucy be talking to

and seized him.

Pinckney.
But Smith. insane from rage and the
sight of blood. was beyond managing.
He lifted the half dazed sailor and
staggered with him toward an open
furnace.
Naval men are used to hard knocks.
Sommers came to. He had lodged
partly, and the bar caught him only a
glancing blow. Now he realized his
danger and with a desperate effort
tore himself loose.
Smith had dropped the bar. 1t was
an even thing now. Wildly the fore
man rushed, but a straight left stop
ped him, and then a fierce right upper
cut, delivered close, brought him to
his knees.
He arose only to meet another swing

He could not fight against it. He

Instead of showing anger he only
