500 MAY EXTEND SERVICE.
Improves Track and Builds Big Round
House and Turntable at Ford

Recent activities by the 500 line
may indicate an extended and improv-
ed service on the Wheatine in the
near future. It is reported that the
company is making many roadbed i'm
provements and that heavier rails are
being put in. In this connection it
is rumored that another passenger
train, for coast service, may run thru
Warren late next year.
The activities of the company at
FordVile indicated preparations for
heavy business in the near future. A

date as many as twelve locomotives.

LARGE CHOIR FOR WARREN
Singers Asked 10 Help Organize chor-
US for High Glass compo-
sitions.

Warren, already known as the city
with most good singers in Northwest
ern Minnesota, will attempt to add to
its laurels next month, when big
choir will be organized This matter
has been proposed for some time, and
as Warren has scores of excellent
singers among the men and women, it
is assured such a move would mean
success.
It is proposed that work be begun on
some standard cantatas to the end
that concert may be given late in
the winter or next spring. Our city
can guarantee a big choir, as we'll as
furnish the best of orchestral accom-
paniment
To perfect plans, as we'll as organ
ize as early as possible, meeting of
Warren singers will be held in the
chapel Of the new North Star College
building on Friday evening, Dec 6. AT
that time it is hoped many singers
will be present. If an organization is
formed at the next meeting, officers
and a director will be elected at that
time

The return of another Thanksgiving
season finds the people of Minnesota
with more cause for sinctre gratitude
toward the Supreme Giver Of Good
Gifts than at any other period in the
history Of the state, for at no time in
that history has there been larger and
more widespread prosperity, and more
convincing evidence o marked adj
vance along the lines Of right thinking
and humane and unselfsh conduct,
tending to the mental and spiritual up
lift of this great commonwealth.
Many Of the great sociological prob
lens Of the hour are being seriously
studied and gradually worked out in
thsi state, while encouraging progress

is being made along all lines of mater
ial development.
1t is fitting, therefore, in recognition
of these most gratifying conditions
and in conformity with the proclama-
tion e bhe president of the United
states, that / join with him in desig-
mating Thursday, the 2Sth day Of No
yenber, 1912, as a day Of thanksgiving
and prayer throughout the state, and

Of the day by revival Of the spiritual

YOUNG men MAY
FORM CIVIC CLUB
PROPOSE TO ORGANIZE TO BOOST
HOME CITY AND GUARD ITS
INTERESTS

Before very long Young Men'S
Commercial Club may be organized in
Warren. Such move has been sug-
gested for some time, and several
young men, who are taking active
steps toward such an end, have met
with much encouragement from older
residents.
It seems as if the young men have
not been given much voice in the at
fairs OF the city, and as they are anx-
ious to play their part as good cid-
zens, and especially home boosters,
they think young mems club would
be of great usefulness to the city.
The Warren Commercial club and
the young men could cooperate to
great advantage in many instances.
The young men would adopt coHsti-
tuition that wuold pledge them to the
best interests of the city at all times.
The new club could encourage civic
moves, and, if it saw fit, could take
the lead for manly sports during the
year.
If the young men organize, as plan
ned, they will try to get some club
rooms, which would provide good
reading material, and where they
could meet during the evenings. A
gymnasium probably could be added
later on.
An organization meeting likely will
be held next month. Several young
men are taking a lively interest in
this matter land it is thought such a
move would be a success from the
start.

Builds Machine Store

VIM Erickson is building a frame
machine ware house, 26x50, on the
corner formerly occupied by his office.
The rear Of the building will be pro-
vided with cement floor, so that
heavy machinery may be moved in
ana out without fear of breaking thru.
The office will be located in a corner
Of the building. Mr.. Erickson's ma
chi1ery business has increased a
great deal during the past few years,
hence he found it necessary to provide
an up-to-date warehouse and office in
which to conduct it.

That Thief River Falls may derive
all market advantages in the future
from the territory to the east, the
business men of that place are taking
active steps to construct a railroad
through eastern Pennington, Marshall
and Beltrami counties The road
would traverse some of the best popll-
lated sections in the Red River Val
ley, and it is assured heavy business
from the start.
AS it is now, some farmers must
haul produce forty miles to market. A
railroad would be boon to them as
we'll as a great factor toward the fur.
ther upbuilding of eastern Marshall
county.
According to reports, the railroad
would go thru Germantown, Grygla
and in northeasterly direction to In
ternational Falls. That route would
be the same as has been proposed by
the Minnesota, Dakota & Western and
which already is outlined on the latest
map Of the railroad commissioners Of
Minnesota.
Sufficient capital to build the road
has been promised, it is said, and a
meeting was held at Thief River Falls
last night, when committees were ap-
pointed OF investigate the matter fur
sther. It was said In Thief River Falls
a few days ago that the new line may
be operated by electricity.
