WILL DISTRIBUTE
CHRISTMAS CHEER
Associated Charities Direc-
tors Meet Friday to
Plan Work.
L A GIFTS OF
TOYS AND
Something for Every Mem
Der of the Poor Fam
lilies is Object Sought.

With Christmas just three weeks
away. the directors Of the Associated
Charities are to meet this week to
make preparations for their annual
dinner distribution to the poor. 1t is
expected that o meeting will be held
Friday night, when this feature Of the
winter work, as we'll as several other
important things. are to be discussed.
The discussion Of the Christmas plans,
part Of the meeting, and it is expect
ed that definite plans for the work
will be made at that time.
Providing cheer for the poor on
Christmas day has been one OF the
important features of the Associated
Charities since 1t was organized. For
the past two Christmases. baskets.
containing a big dinner, have been dis
tributed to the poor families. while
toys, which had been donated for the
purpose. We're given to the children Of
these families.
This year will be no exception. An
average of sixty families have been
given a special Christmas dinner the
past two years, but the number prob
ably will be slightly larger this year.
The distribution of toys brought cheer
for about $50 children at the last two
Chrtstmases, but this year between $50
and 800 will have to be provided for.
Last year the donations Of toys was
not quite so great as the year before,
and for this reason the number OF
children provided for was considerably
lessened.
1t is hoped. however, that the dona-
tons this Year will be great enough
to provide all the poor children in the
city with toys. The donations will be
received at the Associated Charities
room in the city hall, and distributed
on Christmas.
The dinner baskets will be filled
with everything that will go to make
up a good, substantial Christmas dim
ner. They will be distributed on
Christmas morning.
Aside from the regular way of car
rying on the days work. the direc-
tors of the association have made no
special winter plans. Whether or not
anything of this nature vii be. taken
up at Fridays meeting is not known
at present.
The office is kept open from $3.50 a.
m. to 1880 p. m. and from 2:30 p. m.
to $3.50 p. m. Mrs. Pierce, the acting
secretary, and Miss Packenbusch, the
visiting nurse. have charge Of the Of
flee. From 1880 to $3.50 Mrs. Pierce
spends in investigating cases.

BUTTER AND EGGS HIGH
Command IS Cents Zach. hut Loca,
Dealers DO Not Anticipate
Further Advances.

With butter retailing at 35 cents a
pound, and eggs commanding the
same price pc dozen at the present
time. Grand Forks grocers do not
anticipate that there will be n fur
ther advances before Christmas. al
though some are inclined to believe
that the months Of January and Feb
ruary probably will find these staples
priced at 40 cents each. That was
the high point a year ago.
Dairy butter is decidedly scarce at
the present time. very little of it being
marketed. The same is true Of fresh
eggs. local grocers having to rely on
shipments from outside points for
their supply.
In Minneapolis eggs are cheaper
than a year ago, w~holesaling at Is
cents. Butter, however. is soaring.
n the indications are that a TOP
price will be attained this winter.
The Grand Forks price for both but
ter and eggs is high for this time of
the year.

GR|zzlED MONTH
GETS THE PRIZE
Old November Must be Ac-
corded Honors as the
Time for Brides.
ITS ITS
YOUNGER RIVAL
June Falls Short of Mark
Leap Year Shows That
the Girls are Shy.

It's all off with the month Of June
as a bridal month.
The palm has got to be presented to
good old November.
Two times. hand running so to
speak, the month of November has
outstripped the month of June in this
county in the matter of numbers of
marriage licenses issued. Both this
year n last new grand total license
records for a single month were es-
tablished.
November Of this year saw the high
water mark in the marriage license
business. The total licenses issued
was f1fty-four, only one application
being received during the month that
could not be granted. that one COM
ing from a couple residing in the
state, but not in this county.
June Shows Only Forty Licenses.
In November a year ago there were
fifty marriage licenses issued, and that
total was, up to the beginning Of last
month, the high month in this county.
Only eight more marriage licenses
have to be issued this year to pass
the record of last year.. There were
800 licenses issued up to today this
year. while in 1911 the total number
issued was 30S.
And it is leap year. suggests Judge
this month-the "last chance
shouldn't swell the grand total for the
year.
Girls Arc Shy.
Girls r not up on this PROPOSE
ton of taking advantage of the priv
ileges accorded them during leap year
in the opinion of Judge Hassell.
January I. this year. he made an
offer of a free marriage license to the
girl who would present herself at his
office making application for a mar
riage license. the only proviso being
that she must admit being the one
who popped" the question.
Though eleven months and four
days have passed by. and there re-
mains less than four weeks Of this
year left, the first girl to make appli-
cation for a free license Is yet being
awaited.
New law Hits County.
The new law regulating the issu-
ance Of marriage licenses has caused
a serious falling off in the business
in this county during the past four
years. Previous to the passage of the
law which provides that when q cou-
pie, or either of the parties. reside
in this state. that they must take out
the license in the county in which
they, or either one. reside.
Previous to that time Grand Forks
was the mecca for wedding couples
who would come here from all Sec
tions of the state. Now they must take
out their license at home, n as a
result Grand Forks is minus the we'd
ding license trade it formerly had.
