RED CROSS
STAMPS On ALL
EVERY TIME YOU BUY ONE YOU
ASSIST IN STAMPING OUT THE
GREAT WHITE PLAGUE AND
YOU CAN GET THEM AT MANY
PLACES I'M FARGO.

Red Cross stamps cost only ] cent
each and can be had at many stores
and other public places in Fargo. They
are sold annually during the Christ
mas season and allow all TO aid in
the nationwide fight against tuber-
cuIosis by giving as they are able.
Every penny realized from the sale
of Red Cross stamps goes to aid the
battle against the great white
plague" and those who sell them are
doing SO without any financial recon-
pense. They are giving their services
to aid the cause.
Many merchants here are enlisted
In the work and do SO without my
hope of reward, except that which
comes from the knowledge of duty
done. Every newspaper in the coun-
try that makes any preterlse of be-
ing interested in the public welfare is
presenting the cause OF Red Cross
stamps before it's readers.
Red Cross stamps are not to be con-
fused with the regular government
postage stamps and will not be ac-
cepted for postage. The Red Cross
stamps should always be placed upon
the reverse side from the address Of
Christmas cards, letters and packages
and their bright and attractive colors
are a silent evidence of the Christi
mas spirit evinced by the sender, in
aiding the fight against the spread
Of tuberculosis. Don't send out
Christmas cards and packages with
out placing Red Cross stamps upon
them.

LOCAL POWER.

fri
SO long as the local merchant can
give credit, can have personal ac-
daaintance with customers and can
show his goods, the mail order houses
cannot tur the parcels post service
into a weapon for his destruction.
These are advantages the mail order
corporations can never hope to over
come. In the hands Of the enterpris-
ing they can be made no alone a de-
Tense against ruinolts competition. but
means whereby local influence can be-
widened and local trade made more
Aourishing.
The secretary OF a county commercial
club in Kentucky gives this advice to
merchants troubled by the threat Of
inreased competition with the mail
order establishments:

THE RED a 0 SEALS.

Cns of the most important Of the ap-
peals that come to the charitable at
Christmas time is from the people who
are pushing the sale of the Red Cross
seals. III = the funds that are raised
from the sale OF the seals in North
Dakota will be used in the fight that
is being made on the terrible plague,
tuberculosis, in this state.
These seals cos / cent each. They
are stickers and are to be placed on
the backs of envelopes, on Christ
mas packages, and other matter se,t
through the mail or in any other way
at Christmas time. They show that
the sender is imbued with the proper
Christmas spirit.
It has been proved that tuberculosis
can be prevented and can be cured If
th1sdisease is taken early enough and
everyone should help in this splendid
warfare for the salvation Of human
lives.
Fargo, in previous years has been be-
hind other cities OF the state in the
purchase of these seals. This is prob
ably because the citizens OF the city
have not fully grasped the significance
Of the movement. The metropolis OF
the state should lead in this splendid
charity.

ii PIONEER LIFE.

No North Dakota Institution is more
worthy OF the loyal support Of the
people Of the state than the Pioneer
Life Insurance Co. OF Fargo. 1t was
organized by some Of the ablest and
most influential men OF the state, not
alone as a money making proposition
for the organizers, but to keep North
Dakota 0 in North Dakota.
This state produces q vast amount
of wealth each year. Much Of it goes
to the east. There it is put into invest
ments that go to build up eastern
states. II all the wealth produced in
the state could be kept here and In
vested in enterprises to build up
North Dakota the growth OF the state
would be marvellous.
The Pioneer Life is stopping a lot
of money that otherwise would go to
eastern institutions and is investing
1t in North Dakota enterprises. using
it to build up this state.
The men back of the institution are
a guarantee of its safety. No other
ntSipi III the state is more SOHuly
backed financially or with better bust
ness ability. The business reputation
of the most substantial group Of men
in the state is at stake in its success.
This success is no longer probe
matte. 1t has for some time been as
sured, and there is a brilliant future
ahead of the organization. The Forum
believes there is no safer protection
and no more sensible business invest
ment than a policy in the Pioneer Life.

REPUBLICANS GET ToeETHER.

---- n
The North Dakota republican exc
cutive committee has just issued a get
together circular. It is addressed to
the press of the state and is Interest,"
ing from several viewpoints in addi-
ton to being in keeping with the yule-
tide spirit that prevails over the state
and nation.
The committee frankly admits past
differences have to a large degree been
distilled, that mistakes have been
made, and to err is human. No blame
is attached to any individual or to any
faction. There is a general recogni-
ton Of the work of all individuals, a
Conviction expressed that ~factfonalism
iA dead and an emphatic statement that
the republican party Of North Dakota
as more united today than for any time
within the past decade.
@Corroborative testimony to the latter
'is adduced in the recent election of the
entire congressional and state tickets,
such a large majority of the republi-
can candidates to the legislature and
Rn Unusual number Of republican can
Gidates for county Offices.
THE circular announces that perma-
yient state headquarters are to be
maintained in a modest way, as direct
ed by the state central committee, with
the hope that some progress can be
made so the work Of the next cant
paign will not be limited to a Few
weeks.
An appeal In made to the editors for
cooperation and also that they help
along the cause by sending their pub
LEGATIONS to republican headquarters
On Fargo.
"A decidedly interesting phase of the
circular Is the declaration that the ct
forts Of the committee are t % b. de-
voted entirely to the effort to unify
the republicans Of the state and to do
educational work for the party. It is
emphaticaily announcer there wilt be
no attempt made to build up any one
man machine and no effort Ill be put
forth for any individual.
This is the proper foundation for a
reorganised republican party in North
Dakota and if the executive committee
continues it's work along these lines.
the members will no doubt have the
hearty cooperation of all the republi-
can editors Of the state, and every
working republican voter, as we'll.
1t will be interesting to watch the
future work of the committee. 1t has
made good start and the manner in
which the olive branch is extended is
certainly most commendab1e and in
dicates a genuine desire to get togeth-
