Nothing would please Us better
than to have the Rev. H. VI. Bruce
with us often. His sermon on the
subject of Christian Citizenship"
last Sunday was unusually fine. His
condemnation of the pernicious habit
of backbiting gossip wss particularly
torceful.
An lee cream social given by the
Sunday School ladies has caused
Mrs. Danse to bear lot Of good ma
tured chatting with considerable
cquanimlty. She merely smiles when
asked how much lee cream she ate,
or what was the matter with the lem.

committee handed Mrs. Danse, who
is secretary and treasurer, the clear
profit, which was $ll. On reaching
home she went to put the money
away and was shocked to miss n S.
bill Early Sunday morning she told
Mr.. Yates, the superintendent. When
he was leaving the school grounds
he found 81 bill, which he sent to
Mrs. Dansc. She told the little boy
to return it to his father, adding that
someone else had lost it. The child
proceeded to lose the dollar When
Mrs. Dansc reached Sunday School
the committee reminded her that
there was a 81 bill with the FIVE, the
balance being silver. Imagine her
chagrin on finding that now Sc were
lost. During Brother Bruce's sermon
while strong wind was blowing Miss
Yates noticed paper flutter by the
window. Calling her brothers atten.

congregation could get lis breath he
returned and triumphantly handed
Mrs. Donse the SIS. The circum-

Their Bruce interrupted his discourse
long enough to make some appro-
pirate as well as humorous remarks
about Mr., Yates ability as a money
finder. Now Mrs. Danse is fully en-
pecting the return Of the lost dollar,
for it is truly wonderful what mira.
cles occur in lola. The only explain
alton of the loss in the first place is
that the handbag in which the money
was carried became unfastencd in
the crowd, when Mrs. Danse entered
Mr. Gibson's automobile to return
home. Mrs. Danse is smiling and
saying ais well that ends we'll

DIARY OF FATHER TIME
Although it is the exception in this
country for a church to possess a peal
of bells, in England the custom of
toIling a bell for a funeral and ringing
merry peal for a wedding is still
religiOUsly observed. Large bells orig
mated in China. Popular justice
bells were in use there in every large
town long before the birth of Christ.
These were fixed to the wall above
the head of the prince or governor.
A rope a mile or so in length was at
taChed to each, and laid so tempting
ly along the main thorOUghfaTe that
the humblest sufferer from injustice
seldom hesitated to tug at it. AS
soon as the bell sounded the COVER
nor sent for the petitioner whose case
was met with, instant recognition.
The largest and most famous bell
in the world is the Great Bell of
Moscow" Its weight is about 44O,-
900 pounds, and it's cost in simple
bell metal is estimated at about
100000, to which $1,OOO,OOO was
added in precious jewels, plate, etc.,
by the mobiles at the time of casting.
This bell is about q feet in height
and % feet in diameter. It was cast
by the Empress Anne in 1873 from
the metal of a gigantic predecessor.
Bells were currently believed to calm
storms, to avert lightning, to. dispeI
pestilences, to extinguish fires, to
exercise demons and to drive away
enemies.

CRANE HAS TROUBLE
IN GETTING SALARY
State Auditing Board Refuses
to Sanction Bill for Wages
as Normal President.
(Ry stair Correspondent.l J

Bismarck. n. D.. Jan. 6.-President-
elect E. r. Crane of the Minot normal
school IL meeting with difficulties in
the collection of his salary for serv-
ices today.
The state auditing board has refus-
ed to o. K. his bill for salary for the
months of November and December.
totaling approximately $500. on the
contention that inasmuch as there is
as yet no normal school under way at
Minot. that there certainly should be
no need Of paying a president.
The state normal board of control
has different view of the situation.
and 1t is upon the action Of that board
in appointing President Crane and au-
preliminary work at Minot during the
past two months. that the state audit
ing board is centering its attack.
members of the normal board con-
tend. that the engagement Of President
Crane to take charge Of the work at
.Minot at this time Is entirely within
their scope Of powers. and that his
services are actually required there.
Supervision Of the construction work
on the first building for the school,
as executive agent of the board. is one
at this time, while they point to other
features. such as making preliminary
preparations for the opening Of the
institution next fall. etc.. as demand
ing the remainder Of his time.
1t is expected that the Minot normal
school supporters will ask the legis-
iature to appropriate between $150.OO0
and 100000 for the institution. Two
years ago the school was successful in
securing big appropriation. and this
year the normal men feel that almost
as large an amount Of money Is re-
quired. ','
Preliminary work for the construc-
ton of the new building has advanced
rapidly and early in spring the con-
tractors will begin the erection Of the
structure. President Crane confiden-
tally believes the institution will be
ready to receive students at the open
ing of the fall term this year.
