Rev. F. j. Hubbard was confined to his
home by sickness part of last week, al
though his condition was not serious, he
was unable to conduct the usual services
at the Presbyterian church on Sunday.
"The Associated Doctors are coming
to Langdon next week. They come
here on the train one day and go away
the day following. "The Doctors who
doubtless are associated for the pur-
pose OF securing the money of an un-
suspecting public by their ''cure-all"
claims advertise in the papers at Milton
IOsnabrock and Hannah their coming to
Langdon. Their advertising was turn
ed down by both the home papers, who

Last Thursday the Scotch of Cavalier
county and their countless number of
friends from far and near joined heartily
in numbers in helping the Caledon-
ian society of Cavalier county make the
splendid success that they did of the
annual celebration on the 153rd anniver-
sary of the birth of Robert Burns, the
Scottish bard whose memory will ever
be kept green in the hearts of his coun.
trymen the wide world over. The cele-
bratlon as in years past consisted of an
entertainment, banquet and ball, the de-
tails of all of which had been looked
after with such care that the affair il it's
entirety can be very properly character
lied as the best Scotch celebration held
IN Langdon by the society IN It's history.
The evenings program at the entertain
ment was n of unusual excellence
1t was of course of quite a length but
its interest was intense with the vast
audience that packed the seating capa-
city of the Opera House to its utmost and
all felt a genuine regret when the end
was reached. All the songs and dances
dear to the heart of the Scotch we're
given and together with the address
of the evening on Robert Burns" we're
thoroughly enjoyed. The numbers on
the program included outsiders of such
prominence as Mr.. George Robertson
and daughter of Aueta, N. D., Mr., Thos.
Fletcher, of Mckenzie, Man, singers of
Scottish songs and as pipers and dancers
Duncan Gordon, of Gardiner, N. D., r..
Stewart of Winnipeg, Man, and recent
ly of Edinburg Scotland, j. A. Simpson,
of Sharon, N. D., Mclean Bros, of
Sarles, and Louis Mcleod of Clyde.
The meeting was presided over by At
torney w. B, Dickson and the tribute of
the Cavalier County Caledonian Society
to Scotia's bard on January 25th, 1912 is
one that will be long remembered,

Liquor and Crime.

Crime and the saloon 60 hand in
hand.
Wherever there are many saloons
there are crowded penitentiaries.
A scientific study of statistics
shows this to be true.
New jersey has one drinking
place for every GA persons, or a
saloon for every fifty voters. 1t
also has one convict to every 1852
Inhabitants.
In New England there is one sa-
loon to every 632 persons and one
criminal to every $500.
These figures speak more loudly
that all the temperance lectures
ever delivered.
They are cold hard facts. They
can not be explained away.
Saloons are degrading. They
make criminals. They fill prisons
and insane asylums and pile up ex-
ira expenses on taxpayers, to say
nothing of the sorrow and misery
they leave in their trail.
Still there are men who defend
the open saloon on the ground that
it is a good business proposition,
but fortunately there are fewer and
fewer such men every year, and
most of them are either in the Ii
ouor business or indirectly con-
nected with it in some manner
Tennessean and American.
