Daddy: sBedtirne
@, The Aisde Boy
dow And Girl Who
Visited the Fairies

"1@'D like to visit fairytand." said Evelyn one evening after daddy had told
a pretty fairy story to her and Jack.
"Oh, I don't known Jack said. "Td rather 20 to the circus. I never
heard II there being any clowns in fairyIand"
WELL children" said daddy, laughing. sits bedtime now, and I can't tell
you any more stories tonight but tomorrow evening I'll tell you about a little
boy and girl who visited fahyiand"
So the next evening daddy began: g."
Once there were a little brother and sister who lived in Germany near a
in which there were people said, all sorts Of elves and fairies and pixies
and gnomes The children had heard much about these little people, but had
and their daddy warned them not to go far into the forest for fear OF the
veal.
tar into the forest They srayed farther and farther, attracted by the beau
Wu MOVERS which grew among the trees. They became quite tired. Then
they sat down to rest and after a short time they were startled by hearing
a little voice near them saying:
See the pretty children, Marie. Let us take them with U.S.
Hans and Gretchen looked down and at thr feet saw a little man and a
little woman dressed in costumes of long ago. They had smiling. good nat
faces and were only about twelve inches high. They hooked 50 friendly
that when they stretched their hands to the children Hans and his sister were
lot at all frightened, but went with them.
The little couple led the children round and round and deeper into the
unit they hardly knew where they were. Then they took them to a
little house in which were two cute little fairy children, each about as big as
my thumb" And daddy held up his right thumb.
There Hans and Gretchen stayed until it became dark PLAYING with the
rary children and eating cake and sugar candy and drinking milk. Late in
the afternoon the fairies led them back to the place where they had nrst seen
the little folks and left them there.
IN the meantime the mother of Hans and Gretchen had become fright
ened q had gone to look for them. When she found them they told her
where they had been, but she said that it was all a dream and that the chill
dren never seen the fairies. But I do not think both children would have
had the same dream, do you? And now til time for you two to be dreaming"

OMMUNICATIONS
cRITIcISEs SELLING
OF LIQUOR IN NJ, D,

Cooperstown, N. D., March 60
To The Forum: How otter you hear
the remark what effect wall the Webb
law ave on the liquor interests ?"
Judging from personal observation, it
is not more laws but strict enforce
ment of what we have got. But there
seems an apathy manifested by some
of those whose duty IT is looking to-
wards the enforcement of the %prohibi-
ton law that is criminal. AS my bust
ness Chat of a travelling MANI calls
me to all portions of the state and
as 1 am somewhat interested in the
enforcement of the prohibition law, 1
cannot help but notice the leeway
given to the liquor interests. Especial
ly is this true, in regard to soliciting
orders for intoxicating liquors. A per-
feet army of men go over the state
unmolested engaged in this criminal
practice, the penalty for so doing being
as strong as the act of selling, still
county, village and city officials, wink
at this lawlessness and, very often
lay themselves criminally liable by
ordering goods from these same men.
Several roads and branches in the
state have routes mapped out by the
LIQUOR interests hat are covered by
their agents as regularly as the sales
man for groceries or other commodi-
ties.
Why this is permitted is a question
that can only be answered by those
who are in office and who violate
their sacred oath of Office by not being
willing to do their duty as an official
Moorhead, st. Paul, Minneapolis and
other cities have their regular quota
of solicitors constantly on the road.
VIII you kindly tell me how and why
this condition exists?

FIGHTING COMMISSION.

In this issue The Forum publishes
a statement from L. L. Twichell. re-
garding the laws governing the COM
mission form Of government in this
state. 1t should be read by every vot-
er.
The Forum believes that the time
has come for some very plain talk
ing about the present status Of the
commission proposition in Fargo.
There Is at the present time a definite,
and, to a certain extent, organized OPP
position to the commission form Of
government for Fargo. This opposi-
tin is all the more dangerous because
it is afraid to come out in the open
and show it's hand. 1t is working in
an undetermined way to kill off the
commission proposition.
The word has gone out, let it go
by default"
Many Of those who were the most
ardent supporters of commission gov
eminent three years ago are now OPP
posed to IT, although it is admitted
liza IIlt rOAllillAoDlOh law, CD IL 10 "
amended is far superior to the law of
three years ago. To put it in the
words that have been made famous:
There Is a reason"
That reason is not a legitimate one.
1t is simply hat some Of those who
supported the measure three a
ago now find that they would lose
some personal political advantage if
the commission form Of government
were adopted in Fargo. therefore they
would sacrifice the interests of the
city, for their wv personal ends.
II it is believed, however, that this
matter is going to go by default. some
citizens Of Fargo are due for the sur
prise of their lives. Fargo needs the
commission form Of government, the
people are in favor of it and The For
UNI believes that they should be
aroused to the forces that are working
at the present time to kill off the
proposition.

A PLEASANT EVENING
Men Of the First Presbyterian Church
Entertain the Ladies at Lunch
con at the Gardner.

The mems society Of the First Pres

CATION at the Hotel Gardner last even
Ing and the company comprised $50
couples. By an arrangement of num-
bers the company became very gem
orally acquainted. and the partners for
the evening were awarded by lot. The
lunch, which vas served at $3.50, was
a dainty n n Nh. and Mrs. Liem-
baeher were highly compIimented for
their efforts. During the evening a
pleasing entertainment was given.
Rev. Mr.. Behner gave the welcome to
the guests and said grace, after which
Professor Kanmerling, by request,
gave q very pleasing piano solo, and
was followed by a reading by Miss
Frances Emery. who gave the story
OF a little girls experience in the
pantry. which was pleasing. A. w.
McNair sang a pleasing bass solo, The
Shoogy-Shoo, which vas literally ap-
plauded, Miss Fern Crothers render
ed two numbers Of a vocal solo. Too
Young for Love and The Nightingale
Song. Miss Emery gave another read
ing, A Mother at the Photographers,
which caused much laughter. The
final number vas was a splendid duet
by Mrs. II. H. Wheelock and Mrs.
Ernest r. Wright, who rendered The
Passage Birds Farewell. Miss Bertha
Hagen accompanied the different sing
ers on the plano, acquitting herself
nicely. On Friday night Of this week
the Ladies' Aid of the First Presby-
terrain church will have a social in
the church parlors and all are most
cordially invited to attend. There will
be solos by Miss Ella Beckman and
piano solos by Misses Margaret and
Emma Barnes, and a reading or two.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20, 1918.
HORROR UPON HORROR.

The country had not had time to
fully comprehend the fearful nature
Of the tornado which wrought such
terrific destruction in life and property
at Omaha, and surrounding towns, be-
fore 1t was plunged into a horror that
seems to be so much worse that the
tornado disaster is practically for
gotten.
When this was written, it was i'm
possible to get authentic reports Of
the number killed by the floods that
are raging in Ohio and Indiana, but.
from reports at hand it would appear
that the death total will reach into
the thousands, and the property loss
into the millions. Dayton seems to be
the worst hit. The entire city is re-
ported to be a great swirling, seething
lake.
The disaster is the worst since the
whole country will be sickened by the
horror of it. 1t is not a time for
mourning. however, but for prompt
action. Thousands upon thousands
have been left homeless and penniless
and the work of relief will be one for
the entire nation.
Already the appeals are going out
and Fargo should not be behind in
rendering assistance. A systematic
effort TO raise funds and provide
provisions should be started here at
once.
