Social Notes

Just now all Of the merchants in
Fargo as well as in the large cities
are beginning their campaign trying TO
get the public to shop early. There
are twenty -four shopping days be-
tween now and Christmas and an effort
is being made to eliminate the yearly
Christmas rush. The trade at Christ
mas time in almost every line Of busi-
ness is immense and the result in
usually disastrous to a large number
az people. First, the clerks in the
stores get their share, and sometimes
more. OF the work, which might De
eliminated through little forethought
en- the part of the public. They work
from early morning until almost MID
night and are on their feet constantly,
and as a result are completely ex-
hausted. Still they are expected to be
courteous and patient with the wnims
OF the late buyers. The stores are
open in the evenings as rule. about
ten days or a fortnight before Christ
mas and these are days Of unending
toll for the clerks and shopkeepers
who, at the end OF that time are too
tired TO enjoy a merry Christmas is
II quite fair? The Christmas goods
are even now on display and why not
purchase while the selection is good
and there is time to pick out what
you want. In sending gifts TO friends
at a distance another difficulty is en-
countered. The mails, the express
companies and the freight companies
are swamped ana there are every year
large amounts Of the Christmas mail
that must be held over and, in some In
stances, lost or damaged In the rush
OF the Christmas work, The people
who have the transportation and de-
livery OF these gifts are unable to give
them proper attention and the result
is a great deal OF dissatisfaction and
everything but a merry Christmas. II
the public Is looking for something
charitable to do, would II not be
good idea to make an effort to elimin-
ate this unpleasantness at Christmas
time? In some places a campaign
against the eleventh hour shoppers Is
being carried on and the idea Is
commendable one. There is no reason
why II should not be successful.
christmas, through the thoughtless-
ness and hurry of this busy and ac-
tive age, has almost come to be a
season Of heartache and dread, at
least to a large percentage Of the older
population and If people will only stop
10 think, this was not the original at
titude intended. toward this greatest
OF all holidays. Is there not some way
of banishing the troubles Of these I'eo-
pie who serve the public so patiently
and in some measure restore the old
time happiness and pleasure in cele-
brating the birth Of Christ?

Among the more important events OF

New York City, Nov. 25.-Nothing
conveys to the average feminine mind
greater suggestion of luxury than
an elegant negligee.
And yet If one has the time and
skill with the needle this is luxury
not beyond q moderate price. The
very elaborate peignoir of rose color
ed crepe here shown is found upon
close observation rot so complicated
in design after all as to be beyond the
ability Of the average seamstress.
1t is only in the arrangement OF the
trimming that the garment achieves
an effect Of elaboration. over the

ed pink chiffon edged with bias folds

Of coiled crepe cords with pendant tas-
sells of pink silk. Feather stitching IN
silk marks the point where the sleeves
are Joined below the shoulders and
bands OF cream darned lace outlined
with bias folds of crepe trim sleeves
and fronts.
The garment fastens its fun length
with loops Of crepe cord passed over
bullet buttons crepe covered.
A breakfast cap OF cream lace with
pink bows would be charming in COM
bination with this negIigee.

FRENCH ELECTED
SECRETARY CLUB
FRENCH SUCCEEDS KNEEDLER
AS SECRETARY OF CONNER
CIAL CLUB OF CALDWELL
Meeting Held Thursday Evening Was
We'll Attended-President Redway
Stirs Up the Animals and the
Stirring Was GOod-Things VIII
Start to Happen

The aldwell Commercial Club met
Thursday evening pursuant to the
demand of President w. H. Roadway.
1t seems that the Commercial Club
has been on the blink for some lit
tie time now and members have not
attended the meetings. Mr.. Red
way sent out a paper asking the
members to pledge themselves to at
tend or else say they would not.
Now, this man Redway has the ele-
ments of greatness in him. He
does things, or knows why they are
not done. You may not, and prob
ably do not, like him. He who
stirs us to activity is not popular.
Most of us would rather rest. Be
that as it may, on this particular
occasion Mr.. Roadway got out the
membership of the club.
The club met, as you have already
guessed. The first matter that came
up was the election of a secretary.
Mr. H. s. Kneedler resigned and
Prof. H. T. French was elected to
fill the vacancy. other than this,
little was done.
Mr.. Kneedler was secretary of the
Commercial Club about sixteen
months. He served Caldwell with
care, fidelity and ability. He is an
able man and everybody in Caldwell
knows it. They were greatly sur
| prised to hear of his resignation.
He can go out Of Caldwell with a
full realization of the fact that he
did Caldwell a good service. The
secretary of the commercial cub is
an important factor in the commu-
nifty. He makes a hundred enemies
where he gains a single friend. Mr..
Kneedler was loyal and able. He
did thousand things for which he
will never get due credit. But the
people know. They realize and ap-
preciate. S'T9Rl
Prof. H. T. French is we'll known
to the people of the state. He was
formerly connected with the Univer-
sity at Moscow where he made a
great record. He moved to Cald-
we'll a couple of years ago. Since
coming to the city he has been iden-
titled with every movement for the
advancement of the community. Mr..
French is an able, capable man.
He will fill the position with credit
to everyone concerned.
