Dickey County Appointees

Unless Governor Hanna "can be
shown enough" to change his mind the
following will be his appointments af-
tecting Dickey county:
Members of NJ board-F. S. God
dard, d. E. Geer, Glendale.
Deputy Bank Examiner-G. j. John
son, Monango.
Members Whltestone Battlefield
Commission Stevens of Glendale and
A. T. Eaton Of Oakes.
Deputy Oil Inspector at Glendale
c. G. Williams.
Deputy Oil Inspector at Oakcs-J. NJ.
Kellogg.
There has been a lively contest for
members of the NJ board. The APP
polntment Of Editor Goddard is being
fought by State Committeeman Rose,
who represents the Marshall faction of
the republican party, while Mr.. Geer's
appointment is not satisfactory to cer-
tain other republicans, who believe
that a republican should have been rec
ognlZed. Mr.. Geer is known as Mar
shall democrat, and his appointment
will mean a sup thrown to the Marshal
men by Governor Hanna.
Mr.. Rose was candidate for deputy
oil inspector, but it looks as if Rev
Williams had some pull himself witt
the new governor.
The opposing candidates carried their
eattlc to Bismarck and al! of the E!l.
dale candidates have been there tho
past week carrying their pleas to the
governor. After hearing both sides. 1t
is said the governor dee ided to make NJ
changes from what he had already

LA INQUIRE BOYS
WIN GREAT GAME
Oakes High Quint Beaten By
One Point in a Well
Played Game
Girls Play Until Exhausted
But Could Not Break
Tie Score

Last Friday night the basket ball
teams of the LaMoure high school, ac-
companied by large delegation of
rooters, journied to Oakes and in the
evening occurred battle royal at the
high school gym. The LaMoure boys
had beaten our boys and we were after
revenge. Oakes High fought an up.
hill battle all the way and came nearly
overcoming the lead of the LaMoure
boys near the end of the game but
could not quite make it before the
whistle blew. The final score was 26
to 25 in favor of the visitors
The girls teams probably put up the
better game, at least it caused more
excitement and enthusiasm. They got
four points each and in the early part
of the game and fro that time on
neither side could gain point. When
the whistle blew for the finish it was
decided to play longer and after short
rest they went at it again but to no
avail. After becoming nearly ex-
hausted it was decided to quit leaving
the score and 4.
The teams were entertained at pri-
vate houses and erything was done
to make their brief stay as pleasant as
possible.

INTERESTING TALK
BY MRS. SNOW
Makes Many Worthy Sugges-
tions Before Mothers
Club
Meeting Held at the johnson
Home Most Interesting
of the Winter

Under the auspices of the Mothers
Study Club of this city. Mrs. Ella
Snow of Fargo, State Superintendent
of Elementary Sunday School Work,
gave helpful heart to heart talk to
mothers, Tuesday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. H. j. Johnson.
About fifty ladies were present to
hear Mrs. Snow as she sweetly yet
forcibly presented the subject, 1.-THE
Relation of Mother to Child" She
laid stress upon the truth found in the
old adage can ounce of prevention is
worth a pound of cure" in connection
with the unfolding life of the child.
All thinking people of the DAY are wax
ing up to the important fact of this
truth ard one of Mrs. Shows aims in
her great life work of eonsecratlon
and service to humanity is to bring be-
fore the mothers she reaches, their
God-given responsibility of inculcating
in their children not only habits of
personal cleanliness but purity of
heart and soul-the basis of which is
pure thinking and right knowledge of
all the truths of God and nature re-
garding the human body, which is the
temple of God, and of which He has
said "If any man defile the temple of
God, him shall God destroy, for the
temple of God is holy, which temple
ye are
Rescue work is important-it must
be done-the need of it is seen on every
hand--but the work of prevention is
far greater, as it eliminates the need
of rescue work.
May Mrs. Shows timely talk and
suggestions be an incentive to the
mothers and others who heard her, to
put their shoulders to the wheel as
never before and work for an intelli-
gent understanding of purity among
the boys and girls of our homes, schools,
Sunday schools and city in general.
"A woman to whom motherhood has
been denied, but who takes little chill
dren into her heart is one of Gods
mothers"
''He who serves best his fellowman,
+ Is serving God the holiest way he
can. -Contri buted.
