We have a wonderful dog at
the Ranch, a most remarl able
cur "a regular chameleon chang
ing in color according to his mood.
If he gets hungry and cannot find
much to eat, he is as "blue" as
he can be. If he feels good and
is treated right, ne is as white
a dog as you ever saw, although
we notice if a ig dog comes near
he shows "A yellow streak. "
When he is real angry he gets
purple with rage" if another
dog has a piece of meat or bone,
he is green with envy" II
some one gives him swift kick
he turns 'black in the face"

His bark is kind of deep bay

The news OF Roosevelt's an.

rapidly last night. In speaking
of it, President r. n. Pollock

last night over the phone. "He

Ing for Discussion.
The board of directors of the
CONNIE Club held a special
meeting last Wednesday princi.
pally in connection with the re.
modelling and refurnishing
which are under way in the
club rooms. The members of
the house committee have been
authorized to complete their
plans and to carry them out,
and four men have been added
to the committee to aid in that
work. An archway supported
by handsome pillars has been
thrown over the assembly room
near it's north end and about
two thirds of the room lying to
the south of the arch will be
used for billiard and pool tables.
An additional billiard table will
be secured. 1t is thought that
abundant space will remain for
the accommodation of such mem.
bers as attend the club meet
ings, but the usefulness of the
asse embly room for dances and
similar social functions does
not continue.
The present billiard room is
being made over into card and
reading rooms. In addition
reception room and a sitting
room will be provided. It is
thought that later on addition
al space will be secured; but at
present the club rooms cover
over 2,5CO square feet in a very
cent? al location and no more
space is available.
President Probes was author.
lied to appoint committee of
three on Inter City Relations,

from the Breckenridge Com

designated as such members.
A resolution was passed sup

Mckinley of illinois to appro-
pirate money from the federal
treasury for county demonstra-
tion work on farms and copies
of the resolution were ordered
sent to each member of the
North Dakota delegation at the

The secretary brought up a
request that the Club arrange
for a public meeting to discuss
the feasibility of securing a
resident farm expert at Wahpe-
ton for the aid of farmers in
this vicinity under a system of
operations employed by the
North Dakota Better Farming
Association to put into practi-
cal effect more scientific meth
ods of farming. After discus
sion it was voted to hold such
a meeting, details of which are
now being worked out. The
date will probably be March z.
