IS TRANSFERRED
O POOR FARM
TO LUTHERAN HOME

Mrs. Lena Stevenson. the aged worn-
an who was sent to the Arvilla poor
farm two weeks ago after an attempt
had been made to have her committed
to the insane asylum. has been trans
ferred to the United Lutheran home
for the aged at Northwood.
It was on account Of complaints
made by neighbors that Mrs. Steven
o was in the habit Of coming to
their houses at very late hours and
talking in a more or less incoherent
way that she was brought before the
insanity board. The board decided
that what the aged woman was most
in need of was care, and she was sent
to the poor farm as a paid inmate.

GRAND FORKS SENDS
AN INVITATION
GRAND FORKS COMMERCIAL CLUB
ISSUES AN INVITATION TO THE
FARGO COMMERCIAL CLUB TO
ATTEND A GET-ToeETHER
DINNER.

An invitation has been issued by the
Grand Forks Commercial club to the
Fargo Commercial club to attend a
get-together dinner to be held in the
city down the river on the evening
Of Tuesday, Feb. 81. The invitation
is most cordially extended to the mem
bers Of the executive committee of
the Fargo club in an effort to bring
the W cities more closely in contact
so that they ma work in unison for
the best interests of the state Of
North Dakota.
A meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Fargo Commercial club was
held this noon, over which President
Hardy presided, to take action on the
matter and accept. Acceptance was
e n this afternoon but is was the
general consensus OF opinion that the
Grand Forks club be asked to set the
date Of the dinner either the day be-
fore or the day after the date specified
in the invitation. Reason for this Is
occasioned by the fact that a mum
Der of the members of the local orr
ganization have important engage
on that evening which none of
them can very well decline.
President Hardy directed a ON
munication to Secretary Graves this
afternoon notifying the Grand Forks
business men of the acceptance or the
members of the executive committee
of the Fargo Commercial club explain
ed the situation and the cause of the
request for the shift in dates. 1t is
believed that Secretary Graves and the
nvart1fixyn rpno 1iffan IF the. Grnnd
Forks body will accede to the wishes
to the Fargoans and arrange the af-
fair for either of the other dates so
that a good get-together meeting may
be enjoyed that will result probably
to the state as Well as to the two
cities.
