In Memoriam.

A policeman was entertaining some
friends to an afternoon tea. when one
Of them, with an inquisitive turn OF
mind, happened to see on shelf a
glass shade, underneath which was a
brick, with some flowers upon it.
The friend, thinking they were me-
mentos Of some heroic deeds or were
perhaps Of some historical interest,
asked the policeman why he kept that
brick underneath the glass shade.
"That brick" replied the son of the
night, as what I had thrown at me at
the last election"
"And what about the flowers" FUR
Their inquired the friend.
'Them flowers" continued the po'
liceman, with smile that wouldn't
come off, "came off the grave OF the
man that threw the brick. "-Pearson's.

When Buying FueI

The consumer must always figure on the &C
tual amount of heat and comfort that is got
ten for the money spent.
We believe that our connections OF long
standing, coupled with the Large amount OF
fuel that we buy, make it possible for US to
sell the very highest grades Of Coal and Wood
at prices that are cheapest to the consumer.
A trial order of our Coal and Wood, or an
opinion from some of our satisfied customers,
will prove that our idea Of putting quality
first is correct.

Women Prisoners In Japan.

The cells in every, Japanese prison
are practically sleeping dormitories, as
the prisoners are engaged in the work
sheds oil day or attending lectures and
lessons in educational subjects, de-
pertinent and morality. The small jap
anese woman prisoner is even taught
how to serve tea properly, because the
Japanese have grasped the fundamen'
tai truth that whatever raises Wom-
ans self respect helps to eliminate bad
habits-in word, to reform her. The
keen zest of the prisoners in Japan
contrasts with the hopeless, hunted
look of our women prisoners in Eng
land. In Japan the women prisoners
are learning, learning, learning all the
time. They are given prizes and deco
rative rewards for excellence. They
are being encouraged instead OF re-
pressed. Everything is done to instill
a real desire for permanent REFORM

TORS FOR FARGO. AUTHORIZED
FARGO COMMERCIAL CLUB TO
SECURE MEN.

No census enumerators have been
appointed for the First, Second, Third

resentative of The Forum called upon
Supervisor Erich of Lakota this morn
/ ing and was informed of present con-
ditions.
The supervisor announced he had
been unable to to get men to make
the count and urged The Forum to call
the attention of the commercial club
to the situation.
Secretary Baernstein was acquaint-
ed with the conditions He
called up Mr. Erich and found that
men had been appointed to take the
count. They are w. L. jacobson,
Frank e. Hughes. J. j. HUFF, e. S. Pet
erson and A. G. Wilson, but no ap-
pointments had been made for four of
the seven wards
In the absence of President Weiser
of the commercial club the secretary
conferred with Vice President Smith.
AS a result Mr.. Baernstein was given
power to act and Fargo will have an
enumeration.
1t is planned to give him general
supervision OF the work He will Sc
cure competent men to make the count
in these four wards and will check up.
Mr.. Erich will appoint any competent
parties that the secretary secures.
Efforts win be made at once to get
men needed and to expedite the work.
Every resident should be sufficiently
patriotic to see that he is counted.

CONSERVATION ON CAR
This Man Tied His Shoe String to
Lace Attached to Neishbor's
Purely by Accident.

There was piles of excitement on a
car coming down from the north side
last evening. The most Of the people
on board were headed for the Lay
mems convention. A man with one
eye bandaged up was sitting alone in
a seat. A woman entered and on
account Of the car being crowded. she
sat down with the man in question.
In some manner be became aware
that his shoe lace was united. He
stopped over and did the best he could
toward tying it.
Finally he got up to leave and then
there was fierce scream. He had
tied himself up to his neighbor, mis-
taking one Of her shoe laces for HIS.
There was fine mixup for time
and Lieut.. A. F. Collar. who was on
the car came to the rescue with a
jackknife and divorced the couple be-
tween whom there was not a great deal
Of mutual admiration.

SQUIREs At The Il. S.
President Of State University Talks
to Fargo Students This
Forenoon.

The Laymen's convention has
brought a number of distinguished
men OF this state to Fargo, among
which is Prof Vernon p. Sduires 81
the University Of Grand Forks. Su-
perintendent Hoover was fortunate in
securing Professor Squires to speak al
the high school this morning.
After telling some exceedingly funny
stories which repeatedly brought the
school to roars of laughter, he began
in a more serious strain. He said he
would ask the same old question, "why
are you here?" and then proceed To
answer this question.
Although Mr.. Squires took a time
worn topic, he took very new method
of presenting it, which, needless to
say, appealed to the students. He di-
vided the day into three periods,
eight hours for work. eight hours for
sleep, and eight hours 'in which you
live" as he expressed IT,
After a brief mention OF the first
two divisions, he took up the last d.
vision in which I'VE live" 'It is this
period Of the day" said Professor
Squires, "in which you really enjoy
life. 1t is this time when people get
into mischief, unless their time is &C.
cupied in some other way. Now /
have nothing against vaudeville
show, but a little Of that goes a long
way with an intelligent man."
Mr.. Sduires then said that the time
spent In vaudeville shows and other
cheap amusements could well be spent.
and much more prohtably, by reading
good literature. He then suggested
several books and authors which
would repay thousand fold by read
ing. when you have continued Pro-
lessor Sauires, "the panorama Of Eng
lish literature before you, you don't
need cheap vaudeville"
In closing, Mr.. squires' advice was
to learn in school the value and en-
joyment one can get from good Iltera-
ture. and the cheap amusements OF
life won't appeal to the person. He
will address the English Nv classes
at the higA school this afternoon.

WOMEN HAVE
GOOD Meetings
cREss TOLD OF THE CONDITION.
IN AFRICA AT RousING MEET
ING LAST EVENlNe-MEETINes
HELD IN THE PRESBYTERIAN
CHURCH.

The Women's Missionary convention
which has been going on at the First
Presbyterian church in this city Is
being well attended and great deal
Of interest is being shown at the diff
ferent sessions. There was a large
attendance at the meeting which was
held last night and the church was
well filled. There was also a good at
tendance at the various meetings held
today. The session will close this
evening. There is an attendance from
several Of the towns and cities Of the
state and 1t is believed that a great
deal of good will be accomplished from
the convention. At the meeting last
night the principal speaker was Cliff
ford Cress of Colorado City, Col, who
is attending the Laymen's Missionary
Movement convention and he said In
part:
The average man has no conception
Of the immensely of Africa, which, by
way OF comparison, is as large as all
of Europe, Great Britain, China. India
and the United States. Madagascar
alone being larger than all the Ave
Philippine islands. The resources of
the country, while undeveloped, show
boundless possibilities for the future.
In the valley of the Niger there are
as many acres Of productive soil Is I'm
the United States, and twice as many
acres in the Congo. Africa is the
worlds largest producer of rubber, COLO,
diamonds, ostrich feathers and high
priced commercial timber
The population of Africa is only half
as dense as that of the United States.
being only thirteen per square mile,
as against over twenty eight per
square mile here.
Africans are the greatest liars in the
world Thievery is UNIVERSAL inter-
perance Of every sort abound: un-
chastity prevails among all the tribes.
with its attendant diseases and de-
graduation. Polygamy is the result Of a
continual decination Of the male ele-
ment in war so that in may tribes the
ration would be one man TO ten wo-
men.
The Pagan African presents a most
hopeful field for Christian endeavor,
lacking. as it does, an organization Of
priest hood, an established literature
and highly developed national organ
ization.
No where in the world can such large
results be obtained numerically and
geographically with so little effort and
expense, and so little opposition, as in
the dark continent.
