CITY NEEDS CLEAN YARDS
suNDAY.Nlehr ADDRESS

A good sized audience was at the
Congregational church Sunday evening.
where special Easter music was rem
dered and where Rev. A. C. Hacke gave
a splendid address on THE Making Of
a City,"
Miss Pennington gave a pleasing solo
and a double male quartet consisting
of C. C. Owen and A. P. Ellian, first
tenor; Walter Zetzman ..and John C..
Thysell. second tenor; j. L. Hughes
and Nm. Richter first boss and C. j.
kunz and j. Allen Clark. second bass.
gave a pleasing selection. A pretty
anthem was rendered by the choir.
Mrs. j. L. Hughes ably taking the
solo parts.
On his subject. 1.-The Making of a
City," Mr.. Hacke brought out some
excellent points, among which we're the
following:
The prominence of the CITY in the de-
velopment of the world and in the de-
velopment of religion and civilization.
He spoke of the comparison between the
people who live in a city and the early
cave jewellers. the formers means of
communicating with all parts of the
world, thereby bringing all humanity
into closer relationship with each
other, and concentrating ideas and
power.
The growth of a city depends on vari-
GUS things. probably n of the most
important, next to its inhabitants. is
the location. Natural or artificial. re-
sources are needed but no city has
everything that is needed. Selfish
people can never make a good city
they kill everything of a public nature
that does not benefit them personally.
Merchants should satisfy rather than
sell.
The building of a city should be 6
conscious, systematic growth. 1t shoule
be built for the future, in accordance
with the relation to the country il
which it is located. The growth, how
ever, must be according to the possible
tiles and not beyond. There must b.
various kinds of business of q perma

The kRET1 CONTEST CASE

The contest against Casper Krett for a
quarter section of land southwest of Bel
field which was set for April 8 at the
Dickinson U. S. land Office has been
postponed 80 days or until May 8. Sid
ney ]. Beckett. a travelling man, brings
the contest. basine his reason for action
largely on the alleged fact that there
was no land plowed on the claim in
1911. and that the cultivation of the
land had been very small at all times.
The history Of the case is interesting
at this time. Valentine Krett, brother
of Casper Krett, died on the 5th Of Aug
ust. 1907. about five months after he had
filed his claim. He was taken ill and
vas hurried to Minneapolis. where he
died in hospital, his father at Area
dia. Wis. having died three days be-
fore. Casper Krett, who came on as
legal heir. erected a claim house on
the land which he AYERS was stolen
and removed. At different times he
had people. pillow land or the claim but
last year he was in the Old Country
and during his absence his wife at
Arcadia was unable to get the usual
amount of blowing IN the land on &C.
count of the dry weather. Mr.. Krett,
who arrived in Dickinson a short time
since. says that he has a letter from
the government which excused him from
making the blowing last season.
Heffron & Baird, who represent the
contestant, say that they want to see
Mr.. Krett get every right that belongs
to him. H. C.. Berry represents defend
