GLAD TIDINGS
MISSION FUND
MORE MONEY NEEDED TO CON-
PLETE PAYING FOR THE FINE
NEW STRUCTURE TO HOUSE
THIS SPLENDID MISSION WORK
ON FRONT STREET.

The work of the Glad Tidfngs mis-
sion which has been conducted on
Front street by Rev. o. e. McCracken,
is known to most all as a most worthy
work for the uplifting of humanity
regardless of church preference, a
tionality or color.
The Sunday school alone is worth
the effort. This school began with
just one child and now has an en-
rollment of forty, most of whom never
GO anywhere else to church. Some
began with this Sunday school and
have grown to young manhood and
young womanhood in it and speak of
the mission as being one of the great
est helps of their lives.
The new building is nearing COM
pletion at 116 Front street and it is
hoped to have 1t dedicated by Nov. 10.
Considerable of the money, however,
has not been provided for and another
special effort is to be made.
Fargo people have responded splen-
didly," said a Fargo business mar
who is interested in the mission and
its work, this morning, land il other
people could but know what is being
done there We would get more money
than is needed. / wish / could take
some of the people of this city and
state down there some time and show
them what is being done for the poor
SNAAAAIiAA1S NASSAS Va humanity WHO SO
to that little mission. To some OF
them 1t is the first time in years that
they have been neal a church and
when they are gripped by the hand
and given a whole souled, hearty well
come. it puts them on their feet like
nothing else could do.
Il wish also that when they are ap-
pealed to for aid, the people of Fargo
would remember the words of Jesus
himself when He was on earth, I was
hungered and We fed me, naked and We
clothed me. sick and in prison and we
visited me. And they said when saw
we thee thus and administered unto
thee?, And He said unto them, mas
much as We did unto me one of the
least of these, my brethren, We did it
unto me-"
This building when finished will fur
ntsh a place for worship in a part of
the city where no religious services
are ever held and certainly where it
is now needed.
The building is owned and controlled
by the Glad Tidings Mission ~associa-
ton, incorporated under the laws of
North Dakota and with a competent
board of trustees is taking care of all
funds in a thorough businesslike man
ner. Some have contributed remark
ably well who have but little of this
worlds goods and anyone who reads
this and wants to assist in this matter
may send 1t at once to the superin-
tendent and be properly receipted.
Address all communications to o. E.
McCracken, 1410 First avenue south,
Fargo, N. d.
Rev. Mr.. McCracken states that the
mission is, in special need of a cook
stove and a heating stove for families
that are in dire need and that cast-off
clothing is greatly needed.

II was the first snow OF the season

the back yard a city man must admit
that they were made by tomcats in
stead of rabbits.
Miss Ida was eighteen, but had
never seen a real rabbit track. Nei-
Their had she ever met a hired man.
She had seen dog tracks and met
gruff policemen in Central park.
II shall put on my shortest skirt"
she said to her aunt as they ate
breakfast. "and my thick shoes and
