MOVING PICTURES IMPROVING

MOVING PICTURES IMPROVING
The Wenatchee, Wash, World has
this to say ''Last night we saw at
one of the local theaters what appeal
ed to us as the ideal moving picture.
It was a two-reel drama entitled,
"The Redemption. No sermon ever
preached a greater lesson morally; no
climaxes were ever built up more eff
fectively; nothing Of more gripping
heart interest is imaginable. The
audience was worked up to fever heat
of interest. The acting was master
full and the technique superb. The
photography was faultless. It was a
triumph. = This wonderful production
will be shown at the Majestic theater
tonight and Tuesday. Adv.

A number of North Dakota boys Ell
tered the state acre yield corn contest
held under the direction of the Better
Farming association in 1912, and su:-
ceeded in producing higher yields than
the farmers of the state. The first
prize was won by twelve year old
boy in Ransom county. The total cash
prizes won on his corn and the money
obtained through the sale Of his seed
corn Amounted to $40 for the acre.
Several boys in other counties won
from $25 to $50. The contest will be
renewed this year with even more lib
eral prizes, and the entries will be linn
ited to boys between the ages Of 10
and 1s years. In all, 500 in gold is
offered to the boys producing the high
,est acre yields of mature corn in the
state. The state is divided into two
sections, a northern and southern.
The first prize in each section is $75
Fourteen minor prizes are offered, the
lowest being $40. A sweepstakes prize
of $100 is offered to the boy produc
ing the highest yield for the state.
This means that the boy producing the
highest yield Of mature corn in North
Dakota will receive $75 in prizes. In
addition to the prizes offered in the
state contest many counties are car
rying on local contests in which con-
siderable prize money is to be award
|rd. This is a splendid opportunity
for the farm boys between 10 and lS
years of age to show what they can
do in the way Of corn production. The
requirements are simple: at least one
acre of corn must be grown under the
field conditions; the corn must be a
variety which will mature, and must
be so handled as to produce the best
possible yield.
Entries may be made through the
Field agents Of the Better Farming
association Or by sending names direct
to the secretary Of the Better Farm
ing association at Fargo. Entries
must be made before Nav Goth.

WESTERN UNTILITIES CORPORA
TION WILL BE REPRESENTED
HERE SATURDAY.

A distinguished party, probably the
most distinguished party ever visiting
Devils Lake in body, will be here
next Saturday to inspect the new pow
or plant of the Western Utilities cor
roration. The party will be made up
of Frank Corson, president of the
company, E. Y. Sarles, ex-governor of
North Dakota, E. J. Wiser, Morton
Page, and James Kennedy of Fargo,
representatives of the Minnesota Trust
company, and possibly Governor L. b,
Hanna and Louis Hill, although the
latter two gentlemen have so many en-
gagements that it may be impossible
for them to come here.
The party will probably consist of
twelve men.
Aside from visiting the plant as
members Of the Western Utilities cor.
poration, the party will make tour
of the city, and it is hoped that their
coming will bring a still larger bene-
fit to Devils Lake since the company
is interested in the Identification Of
the Chautauqua railway, which will
probably be undertaken. The party
will be taken to Chautauqua and will
be entertained by the Commercial
club there.

FORMALLY OPENED THE TARIFF
BATTLE ON THE FLOOR
OF HOUSE.

Washington, April 29-To congress
man Henry r. Heigesen Of North Da.
kota, was accorded the unusual honor
by his party associates and leaders OF
formally opening the tariff battle on
the floor Of the House, whilst that
body was in committee Of the whole,
considering the Underwood Bill, and
Of outlining the Republican policy and
;going in exhaustive detail into the
various problems presented in the ag-
ricultural schedule. In connection
with that splendid recognition of his
remarkable ability as an analyst Of
the complexities of that schedule, it IS
noteworthy that, whilst other equally
as eloquent speakers were only allow
ed five minutes, he was accorded an
hour in which to enlighten his col
leagues, thus showing the high estima.
tion in which he Is deservedly held by
republicans, progressives and demo-
,crats alike, as well as the weight which
they attach to his words. His speech
is one Of the most interesting chap
ters in the literature Of this country
on the much discussed tariff issues,
one of the most Illuminating. For
many years to come, it will be used by
orators on both sides of the momcn-
tous questions involved as an authori-
tative reference, whilst to the formers
and cattle raisers everywhere it will
ibe a most valuable Wade Mocum at all
times. ....

The above letter was received by
Secretary Kenner of the Commercial
club in response to his call for labo-
.ers to work in the field and is probab-
ly the most unusual ever written, since
1t is seldom that young woman has
applied for such a position and espe.
cially one who now resides in a city
like Minneapolis.
While help has been supplied there
are still more needed, but farmers Of
Devils Lake do not show willing
ness to put the phrase "let the women
do the work" into play in Ramsey
county. The appeal sent out from here
was strong enough to bring results,
but Secretary Kenner never antici.
pated such results as are indicated in

TREFTZ WILL GIVE N. D. ORGAN
1zATIoNs THOROUGH STUDY
ON TOUR.

Coupled with his appearance in the
state for the purpose of arousipg in
terest in commercial club work, G. F.
Treftz, representing the chamber OF
making thorough investigation OF
the kind of club work carried on, the
purpose being to make report of the
activities to the big organizations
which he represents.
Devils Lake has appealed to Mr..
Trefz as city in which club work is
being carried on in most approved
and up-to-date fashion, and he will
spend full day here. reaching the
city Sunday and remaining till Mon
day evening when he will be the hon
or guest at club banquet.
Devils Lake Stands High.
As a commercial club city Devils
Lake stands exceptionally high. The
reports Of the United States chamber
Of commerce covering club work
show that the whole state of Connecti-
cut cannot boast a single club of as
great membership or of a club that is
better supported.
The rank of the club as compared
with cities of this size throughout the
United States is remarkably high.
To Study Methods.
| When Mr.. Trefz is in Devils Lake
he will study the methods that are
employed in bringing success to The
work. He also will give the club di-
rectors some of his own ideas on club
work, and when it is understood tha:
he is regarded as the leading club
worker in the United States, it can be
readily appreciated that his visit Is
important.
Tour Of State Successful.
The tour of the state being made by
Mr.. Trefz is very successful. Already
he has visited Jamestown and Bis
marck, and in botn cities he has been
well received by large audiences, the
business men showing Keen interest
: in his appearance. He visits Williston
! today and Devils Lake Saturday.
