Fargo WOman's Club

Last September band Of enter
prising ladies from the Island park
district met at the home of Mrs. L. A.
Kedney on Eighth avenue south in
honor of Miss Robinson. the visitin,
nurse of the Associated Charities
Her work and it's requirements were
thoroughly discussed and it was de-
cided to form an auxiliary to the AS
ISOLATED Charities to assist Miss Rob-
inscon in any way that was necessary.
The auxiliary was organized and now
has membership of about thirty
five ladies. who are working with
Miss Robinson. Mrs. ]. p. Hardy was
chosen president, Mrs. E. H. Strana-
han secretary, and Mrs. L. A. Kedney
treasurer. During the winter interest
has been lively and the club has met
every other Friday at the homes OF
the members to sew garments neces-
sary in the equipment of the loan
chest and in cases of illness among the
poor, where necessary clothing has not
been provided. The general finances
of the club are kept replenished by
charging an admission fee of % cents
and dues every meeting, whether the
member is present or not, of 10 cents,
making practically sum of $3.50 each
week to buy material for sewing. A
short time ago the auxiliary gave a
charity euchre, at which time. the
business men OF the city were given
chance to assist Prizes were do
mated and the hall was given over free
for the occasion. About $119 was real
lied from this party, which was given
to Miss Robinson and used as deemed
necessary among the poor. Delica-
cies were thereby obtainable for the
sick and part was used to cheer the
hearts of the unfortunate at Christ
mas time.
A similar work and one altogether
as necessary has been done by the
Southside auxiliary and the Eighth
street auxiliary, which were formed
along the same lines as the Island Park
auxiliary. The loan closet has been
kept replenished by these auxiliaries
and those accessories necessary to
Miss Robinson in her work have been
supplied. Money too has been raised
and sent to Miss Robinson, which has
aided her greatly.
1t is hoped that as the work of
these ladies is brought before the en-
terprising ladies of the north side it
will inspire desire to help, also. Sew
eral clubs could be formed from the
north side and from other places in
the city, that could take some depart
ment or part of the work upon them
selves to assist in this great work
which Is being done among the poorer
classes in the city. If perhaps, the
realization Of the necessity for this
work has not been brought before
the minds of the people those in
charge of the work would be glad al
any time TO furnish any desired infor-
nation and to accept help in assisting
those who are not able to help them
selves and are struggling for an ex-
istence.

Communion Cup.

Do you know the mouth and nose
are receptacles for nearly all patho
genie germs that enter the body? If
you are not enlightened upon this sub
ject then you do not know what fatal
disease you may contract through the
communion cup. 4
There are germs lurking in your
mouth, harmless to you, but fatal to
another. Why? Because in health
your power Of resistance is strong. He
may be in a rundown condition favor
able for their deadly work.
You daily take into your system tu-
bercular germs, which you resist; you
may communicate them to another
with fatal results.
You would be surprised and horrified
if you were to see a microscopic
analysis of the purified particles of
food, lodged about the teeth and gums,
which careful brushing fails to remove.
You have been vociferous in your de-
nunciation of the public drinking cup,
but YOU do not hesitate to hold to this
ancient custom, that originated in days
when people were ignorant of germs,
and their destructive work upon the
tissues of the body. They believed
diseases to be sent as punishment
for sins committed
Science has done much to give light
upon this subject. Are we going to
regulate our customs to accord with it !?
You know that within your sensi-
bilities revolt against this custom;
but because it is a religious ceremony,
you have not the courage to speak your
convictions
We suffer alike in regard to natures
laws over health and disease.
If this form of religious worship is
to be maintained then the individual
cup should be instituted.

of New Zealand the policies of the

New Zealand is said to have the
