OLD time SEC'Y
VISITS Y. N. c. A.
w. II. DAY, ONE OF THE INTER.
NATIONAL SECRETARIES, GALL.
ED HERE AND DILWoRTH WILL
SEND DELEGATES TO CHICAGO
-oTHER ASSOCIATION NOTES.

The local Y. M. c. A. was most
agreeably surprised to receive a Wis
1T from w. H. Day, who in the olden
days, when the association people were
located in the old building, was the
most efficient general secretary, and
during his stay here he remarked on
the great changes for the better that
time and energy had brought about.
1t is stated that the former secre-
tary was one of the most enthusiastic
and hardest workers that the "Y" in
Fargo has ever known and it was
largely through his efforts that the
present association is in such good
standing, for there were ups and
downs in the days when Mr.. Day was
at it's head.
Now in Railroad Work.
Mr.. Day is now the international
Y. M. c. A. railway secretary in the
northwest and he stopped off in Fargo
to see If 1t would be possible to have
a delegation attend the international
railway Y. M. G. A. convention. which
is to be held in Chicago during the
next month. In company with Gener-
al Secretary Wolf, Mr.. Day visited
Dilworth, where there is a branch and
succeeded in securing at least one del
egate in the person of Tom Sloan, the
well known veteran passenger con-
ductor. 1t is pretty dificult just now
for the men to get away from their
work, as this is the busy time of year,
but an effort will be made to secure
at least one more delegate to repre-
sent this section. Mr.. Day was very
much pleased with his visit here.
Mems Meeting Sunday.
Preparations are being made for the
next meeting for men at the Y. M. g.
A. on Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock.
There will be an extra programme OF
music and John Penheiter, assistant
! secretary of the ."Y" will lead the
and Wick Wood will speak on Early
Impressions of Religion.
The personal workers Will hold q
meeting at the close of the regular
meeting and prior to the afternoon
meeting the delegation of men viii
visit the streets and hotels and hand
out invitations to those who may be
found. 1t has been found that this has
| proven to be a success in the way oil
keeping up the attendance at the meet
ings.

at the lake this year hasn't been the
best we have ever had by any means.
l have noticed one thing and that is
that when there are good crops up In
North Dakota and about the Red river
valley, we don't begin to have as good
trade down there as we do when the
croIFs are so good. i suppose the
people prefer to remain at home and
see their profits grow. Another thing
that was a drawback to us was the
exceedingly disagreeable weather that
prevailed almost the entire summer.
There were very few days in July and
August when the weather was so
warm as to be even comfortable. Still
withal that there were many visitors
and the fishermen kept at it whether
or no. l was told that next season
there will be some great big improve
ments made in the lake region, and
another thing that pleased me is the
information that the lakes are to be
heavily restocked with fish during this
fall and next spring"
w. W. Prince and wife of Edmon-
ton, Canada, are visiting in the city
and are guests at the Waldorf. Mr..
Prince is a heavy lane dealer up in
Canada and he says that the crops up
his way were all that could be desired.
He says there were many newcomers
the past season, land we are expect
ing many more to land here yet this
fall and winter. Cur country is grow
ing rapidly" said he to The Forum.
I'VE are getting in a class of citizens
and the great majority of them come
from the states and would grace any
community and we are pleased to get
them. They are not buying large
tracts of land, but are contenting
themselves with a quarter or a half
section, believing that they will find
it more profitable than securing larger
farms. When / left they were Just be-
ginning to thresh and they appeared
to be satisfied with the yield"
Andy Grethens and wife of Perham,
Mimi, were guests at the Metropole
yesterday and were here to make pur-
chases for the fall and winter. Mr..
Grethens remarked hat the season
was about over at both Little and Big
Pine lakes, and that there were a good
many visitors during the summer, but
not SO many as there would nave been
had the weather been right. There are
several lakes in our vicinity" said he,
that have seldom been fished In. 1
know of one that is owned by II. r.
Turner of this city which is really full
of bass, but they are hard to catch. i
suppose now that the real season for
bass biting is here, 1T would be worth
while trying it again. Business In
Perham is picking up all right and we
are expecting a big rae down that
way from now on"

Three Great Features.

The Orpheum bill this week con-
tains three features that are alone
worth the price of admission. Conrad
and Monetti. comedy acrobats, are not
so funny. but they do one of the most
thrilling stunts that has ever been seen
in vaudeville.
Failing off from a chaiR set on four
tables piled, one on top of the other,
is a stunt that makes women gasp and
men catch their breaths.
Sirazal & Razall, in little one act
comedy entitled the Music Publisher
use that as the medium for exhibiting
great deal of talent. The musician
at the piano covers up some mighty
clever work with the comedy of the
act.
One of the best features of the show,
and one that always calls for vigorous
applause is the Brooklyn Harmony
Four. This is quartet of four young
men who certainly can sing.
