INDEPENDENCE OF
FORUM APPRECIATED

Valley City Courier: The Fargo
Forum editor says he hardly
knows where he is at. One paper
accuses The Forum of leaning to-
ward the democratic party while
another paper in some other sec
ton of the state says that it is a
stalwart paper and there you are.
Any paper that has the nerve to be
independent is accused Of various
things but it does the paper more
good than harm. The Forum is
Certainly getting out a clean,
wholesome paper, with opinions
that are evidently the views of the
owner instead of the politician. It
is a step in the right direction and
cannot help but make that paper
and it's editor respected.
Cakes Times: The Fargo For
UNI has been accused by one edit
or of the state as a gang paper,
while The Linton Record dubs it
a democratic sheet. Whatever the
politics of The Forum may be, it
is getting out a good, clean, W
paper, and even it's policies are
much improved yer the old re-
gime. "

THE WING has pleasure in an
nouncing to its friends the installa-
ton of new and up-to-date Mergen-
thaler Linotype-a two magazine ma
chine, capable of rapid and attractive

clear, strong type dress of the WING

and acceptably. The installation of
this new machine has, of course, been
very costly proposition; but we re-
alize that modern business requires
modern equipment This new ma
chine is peculiarly adapted to turning
out the incest sort of work in a var

Minister And Wife Remembered

The congregation of the Pencader
Presbyterian Church, Glasgow, Del,
met at the Manse on the evening of
Dec. II. The Rev. George S. Smith,
who now has charge of the church,
and who with his wife occupies the
manse, was expecting a meeting of
the Aid Society to be held there at
that evening, but imagine their sur
prise when there began to assemble,
not simply the comparatively few,
who usually attend those meetings,
but host of the good people laden
with packages of good things, such as
are essential to the comfort and ply
steal happiness of a family.
Many of the products of the soil
and of the flock, and of the herd, as
well as much that showed the skill of
the good housewife; and also many
things from the shelves of the gro
Gerry, while they did not forget that
minister needed money also.
The congregation was we'll repre-
sented by persons old and young, all
of whom seemed to enjoy themselves
as well as contribute to the happiness
of others; some who could not come,
showed their kind remembrances, and
good wishes by sending substantial
proof.
And so it occurred that what was
expected by the occupants of the
Manse to have been a meeting of Aid
Society, proved to be, mostly at least,
veritable donation to themselves,
and they wish now to express their
hearty thanks.

THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.

CHRISTMAS is a good institution,
examine it from any angle that you
will. The Christmas spirit is good
spirit to cherish; cherish it and en-
courage it while you may. 1t is the
spirit of unselishness ana charity and
peace and good cheer. 1t mellows the
heart, brightens the home, makes the
world a better place to live in. 1t
means the regnancy of the Golden
Rule, for the time at least. We are
led into thinking upon the things
of another, into striving to add to hui
man happiness,int radiating the joy
of living. Lend thyself to the lead
ing of this Spirit and thou thyself
shalt be enriched thereby. In all thy
giving, be sure to give myself to
the little ones that want your love;
to the aching hearts that want your
sympathy and tender remembrance;
to the needy who should share your
plenty. Unto Me; Unto Me-. Re-
member who it is that made this
blessed Christmas time; who it is that
fills our hearts with its tender joy;
who it is that watches over the way
we keep His birthday. "Unto Him.;
Unto Him."
