This Is all very nice. No laboring
man or woman should start out work

thorough course in psychology. The
trouble is they have to go to work 80

he discovers that be is working too

SO all fred wise that he strikes, and it
all turns out in the course of psychol-

EVERYBODY reads papers
II these days. Most per-

sometimes more. They are
as essential as breakfast. as
regular as supper. Whether

And you get the informa-

ment. The day is not COM
plete without the paper. You
start the day with glance
at it, and you are likely to
lay it down to prepare for
slumber.
The paper that is so essen
tial to you Is equally essen
tial to your neighbor. He.
too, reads 1t and finds therein
the things he wants to know.
Its appeal is universal. its
circulation cOextensive with
mankind.
That Is what makes the
newspaper the best advertis-
ing medium that civilization
has devised. 1t reaches ev-
erybody. or at least the frac-
ton that it does not reach Is
so small as to be negligible.
And even the few who may
not read the newspaper will
be guided by those who do,
so that an advertisement will
bring business from those
who never see it.

DRAINAGE WORK
PROVIDED FOR
Trail County Board Holds
Hearing and Orders
Work Done.

Mayville. n. D., Feb. 32.-The Trail
county board of drainage commission.
ers met in Mayville this week and held
a hearing on the proposed new drain
in south MaHville township. After u
discussion, the drain was ordered
built. y large number of interested
land owners were present. The pro-
posed drain is to he sever and one
halt miles in length, running from
west to east, to about three miles east
OF Murray, where it will strike the
Dig coulee which leads into the Elm
river. This will go through the hear;
Of the district which was flooded last
veal destroying thousands Of dollars
worth Of crops. After considerable
discussion. the commissioners decided
to order the drain to be built and
work on 1t will begin as soon as pos
sible. There. was practically no OBJ
lection to the order on the part Of
the farmers present and the action
seems to be by general consent: The
movement for the construction of this
drain was led by fver I~ngebretson,
Who took the initiative last fall by
having a petition drawn up and cir
culated it. securing much more than
enough signatures. Mr.. l%ngebretson
drove over the proposed route with
the commissioners and surveyor and
n survey was made. The action taken
is the successful elimination of Mr..
1ngebretson's work.
