LYCEUM COURSES
Chances Are That Ely Will Have
Course Soon

With the new arrangements
made by the Universities of Mime
sofa, Wisconsin and North Dakota
who have banded themselves to-
gether for the Improvement of
community life by means of pro-
viding worthy entertainment, il
has become possible for the smaller
cities to secure lyceum entertain
ments.
The results of the alliance to
provide high class attractions are
numerous and among them can be
Classed the following:
Higher class attractions, at
cheaper prices to the communities;
a guarantee of the quality and
morality of the companies that
visit the places where lyceum
courses are a feature of a commun-
ity life; more communities reach
ing forward and upward, more
folks happier.
1t all came about in the early fall
when Paul F. Voelker of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, ]. J. Petit
john of the University of North
Dakota, and Richard R. Price of
the University of Minnesota met
in Madison, Wisconsin for a con-
ference and formed an association.
Already cooperation has begun,
and definite plans are being laid for
the season of 1914-1915, when all
attractions will be secured for
service in the three states.
By this cooperative plan better
service may be secured to larger
number of people at a lower cost.
In bringing artists and great lee
turers from distance more dates
can be booked making it possible
for each number to be given at a
lower price. The best talent of
the nation is secured and brought
to the people at reasonable prices.
This year the lecture department
of the, University of Minnesota
General Extension Division is put
ting in about rs courses in the
various communities of the State.
With the introduction of popular
features concerts, aud entertain
Iasptss aiTeal sdemanSAis met and
the growth of the department is
assured. Next year without doubt
a hundred communities will be
benefiting themselves by this plan.

Mr.. Merchant

Why don't you dig into the re-
tail mail order quotations and find
out where you stand and where they
stand? See whether they have
what they claim-whether the
prices are so superior to yours. If
you really investigate and do some
real comparing, we venture to say
that you will gain the kind of con-
fdence that is absolutely necessary
to have before you can put any
sort of punch into your advertis-
ing.

In addition to popular lectures,
which are largely inspirational in
their nature, and study club lectures
which are largely educational in
their character, the lecture depart
ments of the three universities offer
community lectures on the question
of public health, libraries, town
planning and building, social CEN
tiers, etc. These community lee
lures are to be a prominent feature
the coming season, the idea being
that it is the duty of the universe
ties to aid communities in the solu
ton of practical problems.

add FARMERS TO LIST
Farmers Supply House Has Always
Done Mail Order 6usiness-Add
Farmers to Mail List.

An error crept into the article pub
lished in The Forum in regard to the
Farmers Supply House Thursday
evening. 1t was stated that the mail
order business was a new feature
when it is a well known fact that the
house has always been a mail order
house and has catered to the trade of
hotels and restaurants since it was
started.
The progressive policy of the firm
has caused growth sufficient to
justify them including farmers in
their list of patrons. The fact that
they have decided to expand will be of
material assistance as 1t will allow
the farmers of North Dakota and
northern Minnesota to save the
freight on bills OF goods which are
now compelled to buy when ordering
of eastern houses. The firm is re-
sponsible in every way and every
product they handle lis in compliance
with the pure fod laws Of the state
of North Dakota. --Advt.

MINNEAPOLIS PAPER OF GIRL
WHO WAS LURED BY THE
WHITE LIGHTS AND TAxls,
DESPITE WARNING. s9&

The Minneapolis Tribune of last

girl, now known as Berthe Bremen,
came from Fargo, N. D., to work as
a stenographer in a Minneapolis brok-
er's office. PatroIman O'Malley, walk.
ing beat near the uptown cafes, saw
the girl frequently. One night when
he had seen her with two other girls
and man he knew too well, he
called her aside and talked to her.
Some day, little girl, you're going
to be sorry for the way you're going"
he said. 'Tt all seems fun, now, these
late suppers, taxi rides and the even
ings you spend in the cafes over a bot
tie. but you leave 1t alone or before
many days we'll be sent to get you"
Early today screams from the But
Ter hotel, S10 Hennepin avenue, called
OMalley from a block away. He ran
to the hotel, rushed up the stairs, and
broke through the door. On the floor
he saw a frail, emaciated woman, who
had been struck and bruised. A man
stood covering in a, far. corner Of the
room. He gave his name as r. G.
Bremen, a theatrical man. O'Malley
took both to the Central station. After

why didn't you lock me up then, be-
fore it was too late? Why lock me UP

JUDGE POLLOCK'S
LOTTERY OPINION
FARGO JURIsT GAVE DEFINITION
OF A LOTTERY WHICH WAS
READ TO THE DISTRICT COURT
YESTERDAY-ANY GAME OF
CHANCE FOR A PRIZE. '.'

Judge Pollock Of the district court
has rendered an opinion defining a
lottery, which was read to those
present in the district courtroom at
the courthouse yesterday. In view of
the recent action of the Fargo jurist
closing the doors OF the poolhalls to
minors and forbidding them the pur-
chase Of tobacco in all forms as well
as forbidding the continued operation
of the slot machines in the city, his
opinion. given below is Of especial
interest.
Judge Pollock's definition of a lot
terry has been considered the best of
it's kind that has been rendered. 1t is
as follows: '..'
A lottery is any scheme for the dis
posal or distribution of property by
chance among persons who have paid
or promised or agreed to pay any
valuable consideration for the chance
Of obtaining such property or por-
tion Of it, for any share of or interest
in such property, upon any agreement,
understanding or expectation that it
is to be distributed or disposed of by
lot or chance, whether called a lot
terry, a rattle or a gift enterprise. or
by whatever name the same may be
known. Section 1854 revised codes
1905.
"A lOILeEy IS a SCnenle Dy WnlCn a
result is reached by some action or
means taken under such conditions
that mans choice or will has no part
in that result, nor can human reason,
foresight, sagacity or design enable
him to know or determine such result
until the same has been accompanied
People V. Elliott, (Mich.) 16 Am. st.
Rep. GAO.
1t makes no difference what name is
given to the scheme:
"A rose by any other name would
smell as sweet;
A thorn by any other name would
prick as deep"
See note to 16 Am. st. Rep. AZ.
Three things must concur to make
it a lottery:
l. There must be the purchase of a
right.
2. The right must be a contingent
one to receive something greater than
that which is purchased.
3. The contingent right must de-
pend upon a lot or chance.
