in the title of wonderful new series

the management of the Rex theatre
to be shown at the next Sunday meet

This picture story has been shown

of the greatest ever produced. It is
Halem's religious master piece, and
the worlds greatest religious film sub

dorsed by the clergy wherever shown.
There are five reels, five thousand feet
and it takes an entire evening to pre-

Messrs. Burch and Robinson are
especially fortunate in securing these

who. is doing his share in making the
Press association a success. Mr.. Hyde

Hyde's mission at the association was
to invite the newspaper men of the

WHY VALLEY CITY SHOULD
HAVE A CHAUTAUOUA

his business must, without the Chau-
tauqua, stay in town while his family
enjoys themselves at some summer
resort. But with the Chautauqua, he
is near enough so that he can go to
his place Of business every day, and
yet enjoy two weeks vacation with
his family.
There are lectures and talks on a
religion for older people and bible
classes for the children. The boys
and girls are taught to ward of sin and
to become good men and women.
Many a mans success in life Is due
to his early religious training. Good,

make better citizens and better citi
zens will keep better government
over the whole country.
The ChautauQua movement was
started in seventeen eighty.four and
since ChautauQuas are still held every
summer In many towns all over the
United States think 1t goes to prove
very strongly that Chautauquas are
enjoyed and appreciated by the peo-
pie. If they were not, surely this
movement would not have been kept
up for twenty-eight years!
In the past two summers since
Valley City has had a Chautauqua !
believe it has been we'll patronied and
feel assured that the summer is look
ed forward to by many Valley City
people mainly on account of the
Chautauqua which is to be held here.
As regards the location, Valley City
certainly has the most beautiful and
suitable place anyone could wish for
and it is we'll known that there are
hardly no other places in North d.
kota, better than our own, for Chau-
tauqua. On the shore Of the Sheyenne
in the country, and yet only mile or
so from town. Valley City would lose
good deal by not having Chautau-
qua.
There is Z new branch Of the Chau-
tauqua which has just been organized.
The farm boys, one chosen from each
family, are to come to the Chautauqua
next summer to learn more about
farming and other things. J, Their
nernipgs WIN b. spent in STUDYING

Alfalfa Meetings
for Dickinson
SPECIAL TRAIN TO RUN-FREE
DlNNER-oUTLlNE OF THE
DISCUSSION.

OvSNOoObOuNs
Mention has already been made in
these columns of the alfalfa meeting
or school to be held at Dickinson
June 21. Arrangements are being
made for a SPECIAL train to leave BIS
marck or Mandan. The visitors will
be furnished dinner at the Expert.
ment Station. There will be good

county, and by others.
A meeting for the study Of alfalfa
lasting one day, for the benefit of
practical farmers will be held at the
Dickinson Station June 81, 1913.
It is now established beyond a
doubt that alfalfa can be grown with
success in North Dakota. 1t furnishes
rich feed, invaluable to dairymen, a
feed which may be compared with
wheat bran in value. The farmers of
North Dakota are not growing the
crop generally Many failures have
been reported and encouragement has
followed. The failures are due large
ly to lack of knowledge and expert
ence. The above facts are sufficient
argument for the one days meeting.
On this day the following outline will
be carried out in the field, working
with the alfalfa as it grows as prac-
teal demonstrations. Such pro-
gram can be carried out almost as
given.
