Between forty and fifty members of

affair was arranged as surprise to the
departing brother. In the early evening
Mr.. Riessbeck was invited to take supper

having the same invitation. Soon after

the first time the brothers had met in
the new Temple, their furniture and
paraphernalia having been moved tenn

FRIDAYS GAME CANCELLED
VALLEY CITY TWO GAMES

For some reason the basketball team
from jamestown saw fit to cancel their
engagement with Dickinson for Friday
night.
The two big games in sight now are
the ones with Valley City on the 18th
and 10Th. AS is known Valley City has
the championship team of the eastern
part of the state and with Dickinson
claiming the western championship.
these games scheduled for the near
future will be genuine struggles for
supremacy in the basketball field.
Orchard will play as guard with Baird
from now on. through the remainder Of
the season and everyone who knows
anything about the game knows that
together they make pair that are hard
to beat. Grof, Blair and Kunz will play
in their old places and no eulogies are
necessary as to their basketball abilities.
The boys want all their friends and
everybody else out on these evenings,
for that is half the battle and no doubt
these games will be we'll patronized.

SCHARF SELLS 1o6 QUARTERS
his RECORD FOR 1910

E. j. Scharf of Dickinson made a
great record for 1910, selling 106 quarter
sections of land, the great part of his
acreage sales being quarter section lots.
Mr.. Scharf has proven himself a sue
cessful real estate dealer. He tells the
PRESS that there are great mahy in
quiries for land at the present time and
he looks for this class of trade to con-
tinue strong. Eastern people seem to
think that this country should have a
larger snowfall and appear to be holding
off little just now. However, this
class of business is not supposed to
start very much before the middle of
February or the first of March.

HISTORY OF ORDER
The Knights of Columbus is fraternal
and beneficial order, exclusively for
Catholics, instituted in New Haven,
Conn.,, February 2, 1882 and incorporated
under the laws of the State of Connecti-
cut March 29, 1882. While the primary
object of the founders was to provide
insurance for it's members at nominal
rates the scope of the order expanded
with its growth and the social strength
Of the order is now as pronounced as
was its object of insurance during the
first ten years of its existence.
REV. M. J. McGivney, then curate of
St. Mary's church, was the moving
spirit in bringing the order into exis-
tence.
The Knights of Columbus, issue
insurance policies for ST, 900 So. 900 and
s., 600 to desirable risks between the
ages of 18 and so. The rate of each
member increases once in five years,
until the age of so is reached, when the
member pays level rate for the rest of
his life; this level premium being based
upon his age at initiation.
The knights of Columbus operate in
every state and territory of the United
States and also in the provinces of
Quebec. Ontario, Prince Edward Island
and New Brunswick. In January 1904 a
charter was granted for an associate
council in Manila. P. I. There are 80
state councils and $40 subordinate
councils. and on January 1, 1905, the
total membership was 127, 2O6, compris-
ing 43. 537 insured and S3. $50 associate
members.
The order aims to develop a practical
ECatholicity among its members and its
four degrees serve to impress upon can
didates the nature and sacredness of the
obligations to the church and state. In
1904 the Knights of Columbus presented
$50. 900 to the Catholic University in
Washington for a chair of American
history.
