PRESIDENT GARFIELD

In another paragraph We have nie1.-
toned the difficulties thru which Ber-
jamin Franklin had tc go, AS another
example of one who conquered thru
trials, we may take President Gar
field. To make a long story short,
We will mention only the main facts
| of his life. Farming was his work 1T
ten years of age. He worked as
wood chopper, blacksalter, and car
trenter from the age of twelve to sly
teen. as mule driver on the canal al
seventeen; as student and teacher
from eighteen to twenty-one; college
boy, professor, and principal of insti-
tute at Iwenty-eight. At twenty
nine he was state senator, at thirty i
colonel in the War of the Rebellion;
at thirtv-one brigadier general; al
!! t.irty-two a major general; at thirty
three member Of the National House
of Representatives which position he
held for eighteen years. At forty
nine he was elected United States
Senator, and at fifty he was inaugur-
ated President of The United States.
"The heights by great men reached
and kept
Were not attained by sudden fight;
But they, while their companions
slept,
Were toi1ing upward in the night .
A persons life may be full of toll
and hardships, but if he has gone thru
them safely, he is all the better for
them, and the triumph is so much
greater. If person should fall on
the way, he is, indeed, to be pitied.
Let us hope, that no one of us is such
one, but that each one thru trials
will triumph.

NORTH STAR COLLEGE NOTES |.

The members of the first shorthand
class are having a very interesting
time nowadays. They are taking a
court case down in shorthand, then
writing it out on the typewriter from
the notes. The other classes are
working hard and advancing rapidly
each day.
Mrs. A. G.. Abrahamson invited
number of college friends to a six
o'clock dinner Friday evening, given
in honor of Miss Regina Velo, of
Crookston. Mrs. Abrahamson is a
splendid entertainer, and the guests
regretted that they had. to leave so
early
The temperance lecture given by P.
]. Youngdahl last Monday evening
was well attended and all enjoyed the
splendid Grafton that was delivered.
1t seemed as tho the speech had the
right effect. Warren went dry!
Miss Lilly Mattson entertained the
Home Economics club at her home
Monday evening. A1tho being detain-
ed rather late by the lecture, the
members present had a splendid time.
Refreshments were simply delicious.
At the prize games, Misses Ida John
son, Freda Bergstrom, Olga Buro and
Elizabeth Rosentha1 won the prizes.
The girls at college were very sor-
ry to see Bernhard Olson leave for
his home.
The declamatory contest that was
given by the High School was a.
grand success. North Star will have
to "go some" to do better.
The Cooking Class was excused
from recitation on Wednesday after
noon, in order that the members
might see the demonstrations given

home. In order to maintain soil fer
tility it is absolutely necessary to
have good cows, and all the unprofit-
able cows weeded out of the herd.
The milk should be tested and a re-
cord kept of each COW. Mr.. Carlson
gave some valuable pointers on rails
ing the calf that is to make the future
COW or beef steer. The calf should
never be stunted in his growth He
believed that raising cattle for beef
was as profitable as for dairy pur-
poses. He closed by reciting a dia-
lect poem on the s'Brindle Cow"
Mr.. Brown gave a second talk, TAX
ing Conservation as his subject. He
dwelt on the necessity of conserving
the fertility of the soil. Minnesota
soil is naturally rich and never will
need the application of commercial
fertilizers like the soil of the eastern
and southern states-proyided it is
rightly farmed. He closed with an
eloquent appeal for the conservation
of the home and of the boys and girls
upon the farm.
The best part Of the program was
reserved to the last, being the lecture
Of Margaret B. Baker, of st. Anthony
Park, on the subject of Home Eco
nomics. Altho she had altogether too
short a time in which to develop her
subject, she succeeded in giving one
of the best and most interesting talks
of the session. At the outset she
complimented Warren, saying she
was impressed with the town and felt
that its people were intelligent and
progressive. Woman has an impor-
tant work to do in the home. Before
her gentle touch ugliness and untidy-
ness will disappear, and things beau
tiful and ennobling and uplifting will
be brought forth. Flowers will bloom
and art and music flourish where she
holds sway. Husband and wife are
|
the husband to provide the tools and
| conveniences the wife needs for
housekeeping just as we'll as to equip
the farm with labor saving machinery
The preparation of food falls to the
woman and it is important that she
be well versed in the principles of
cooking in order that the food so pre-
pared by her shall be nourishing,
healthy and palatable Simplicity
and harmony in cooking, as well as
in dress, and in ornamentation of the
home, are desirable Mrs. Baker gave
a practical demonstration of prepar-
| ing the cheaper cuts of meats for the
table, making use of a gasoline stove
that had been placed on the platform.
This part of the lecture was of great
interest, especially to the ladies', Of
whom there were many present. At
some future time we hope the ladies'
of Warren may be favored with e.
course of lectures by Mrs. Baker.

STORY OF The PLAY.
Synopsis of Golden Rule" to Be civer
by Knights Of Columbus.

One week from tomorrow that is.
on Tuesday evening, April 25. the
Hancock knights of Columbus will
stage their annual dramatic produce
ton, the Offering being "The Golden
Rule" the finishing touches of which
are now being given the cast after a
period of patient and careful re-
hearsing under the direction of G. T..
Carron. The story OF the play tells
how Dick Stanley, whose wife is a
niece of Father O'Neill misappropri-
ates church funds after losing his own
fortune and that of his wife i'm Wall
street ventures. He makes an at
tempt at suicide. which Father o'Neill
illustrates. and the latter makes good
the defalcation from his own private
funds.
Frances Marvin, sister of Dicks
wife, Is in love with her brother-in-
law, which fact she succeeds in con-
cealing from all except Dale, an un-
scrupulous man of the world who has
been instrumental in causing Dicks
downfall and who also attempts TO
rob him OF his wife's love, but meets
with defeat. Dick Stanley returns
from abroad, regains his fortune and
repairs all obligations. peace and hap
piness being restored TO all through
the good offices of Father O'Neill.
The cast Is composed of some of the
ablest local amateurs. most of whom
took part in The Belle of Richmond"
last year and those who have seen
the rehearsals pronounce the present
drama superior in many respects to
last years production by the Knights
OF Columbus, and predict for IL an un-
qualified success, warranting a packed
house at the Kerredge theater next
