COURIER SEES THE LIGHT.

To create and develop an education
al institution is always big job and
one which appeals to big men and to
men who can see things bigly. Such
creators must be willing to toll ardu-
ously and be satisfied with slow
achievements and sometimes to see
others come and reap the honors and
practical benefits.
There is no more beautiful spot in
the northwest than that selected by
the Valley City ChautauQua associa-
ton for the building of its summer as
sembly. The high bridge of the
Northern Pacific railroad runs like a
gossamer viaduct over the valley to
the north at a distance just sufficient
to hide the coarseness of steel and
masonry, while it displays the beauty
of the great engineering triumph. The
river is always beautiful; the grove is
attractive and the grounds are being
laid out and adorned delightfully."-.
Here the combination Of recreation
and summer school which is now call
ed a Chautauqua flourishes under
Alex Karr's supervision and manage
ment. The big steel tabernacle added
to the equipment last summer insures
permanancy and an excellent arena
for scenic achievements, instruction
and entertainment.
The great periodical. "The Country
Gentleman" published by the same
house which issues the popular Sat-
urday Evening Post, recently contain
ed an elaborate writeup of the Valley
City institution which might we'll
bring thrill of pride, not only to
the management and to the pretty lit
tie city nesting in the hills, but also
to North Dakota. We are all inter-
ested in the success of this institution
and are pleased that it's fame is noised
abroad.-Courier-Ne

ed that in only about one quarter Of
the confnements is the Twilight Sleep
employed. Another reason, of course,
for this small proportion is the fact
that the patients entering the wards
of hospital often come in too far ad-
vanced in labor to permit of this re-
lief.
1T may be true, Of course, that as
the details of the treatment are more
scientifically known and more thor
oughly mastered Twilight Sleep may
be used in many more cases and in a
greater variety Of types. There may
be other subtle details, like the con-
trolling of noise and light, yet to be
more fully adapted. The significant,
supremely encouraging fact is the per-
feet working of the treatment in the
cases where it is suitable.
With this question of limited adapta-
bility comes another proposition: In
order to determine whether or not the
Twilight Sleep will be of use in par
ticular case, woman should always
have the opinion of an expert. AS a
corollary to this preliminary judg-
ment by an expert stands the fact
that, when the treatment is admins.
tered, it should be given by trained
obstetrician. There will be charla-
tans who will take every possible ad-
vantage of this new path to fortune,
and there will be the type of physician
who, when the patient insists upon
having the Twilight Sleep, will admin
lister it with insufficient knowledge.
"Obstetrical experts are right when
they maintain that it takes a great
deal of time and experience to learn
how scientifically to administer the
Twilight Sleep. 1t entails a precise
of the nature and results of
the drugs, scopolamin and narcophen,
and nice observation of the symp-
toms of the mother-to-be."

MlLLER'S OPINION.

Attorney General Miller in an opin-
ion defining the status of Thomas
Cooper, director of the experiment
station, nails another campaign false
hood circulated not only to damage
the Agricultural college, but to black
en- the reputation of some Of the most
respected citizens of North Dakota.
He holds that the board of trustees
of the Agricultural college incurred
no liability when they took over the
Better Farming association. In fact,
that association brought with it as
sets valued at more than $4,000.
One of the state papers printed with
out any basis in fact that the board
of trustees, composed Of men who
have heretofore had the reputation Of
being honorable men, entered into an
agreement to pay debts contracted by
the Better Farming association
amounting to over $4,000, with pub
lie funds"
When the supreme court recently
a well-earned rebuke, a
a long stride was taken toward purg-
ing the press of this state of vile
abuse and rank SANDER. More and
more do respectable men shun public
office because of the light regard in
which some papers hold the truth

The N. P. Railway officials have
made the statement that the South
half of the depot block could be used
by the city for parking purposes of
the citizens desireed to use it. II
the soil were prepared in the spring
and the ground dividedee into lots, for
gardens for the children, the result
would probably be satisfactory, if prop
erly handled but if the place is to be
made into pleasant park the plant
ing Of trees must be attended to, and
other improvements made that will
cost some money. This particular spot
had been an eye sore to Valley City
citizens for years and now that there
is an opportunity to beautify it, no
time should be lost making arrange
ments so that there may be no delay
when spring comes.

CHRISTMAS CHARITY.

Valley City has been called upon to
assist in sending supplies to the straw
ing victims of the European war and
have responded in a more or less in
different manner, but now as Christ
mas approaches another appeal is be-
ing made and that for local charity.
In this county there is no reason to
suppose that any family should be
without the necessities of life, but it
is stated that some homes will not
lave a real Christmas unless help is
forthcoming. Does anyone know OF
any such and if so are their wants be-
ing supplied? To the more fortunate
who have plenty, the appeal of the
fatherless and deserted, or the homes
where sickness has brought want, may
seem unreal or uncalled for but 20 the
children vEc may not have food and
the things that go to make a real
Christmas, the want is calamity The
lack of which only a child may under.
stand. ThCle isn't much poverty in
Barnes County, indeed the state is
comparatively free from suffering Of
that nature, but since the world began
there has been unfortunates who are
in want and at this time let Valley
City see to it that not one here shall
fail to feel the touch of Christmas

which the commission pressed the but

The following interesting letter was
published in the Fargo Forum in
answer to an editorial that appeared
in the Courier-News. 1t was signed
"A Fargo Woman" and furnishes
abundant food for thought:
The highly interesting editorial in
this mornings Courier-News, headed
Time for Amendment, is written large
" from the mans standpoint. The in
ference is that when a woman OF
twenty-eight entered into immoral re-
lations with man of sixty-fve, she
was largely to blame, because of her
mature age. She knew that the man
was married.; certainly. But did not
this man of sixty-five also know that
he had wife and family? We GER
tainly cannot consider a man of his
age and experience tool in the hands
of the woman. Men are too apt to cry
"blackmail" because after they have
ruined a woman's life, and have tired
of her, she resents being dropped into
the pool of moral filth and human iso-
lation which always awaits the woman
who has transgressed, while the man
cries out to his brother men to help
him let 20, knowing that society and
probably his family will still receive
him.
when this man was showering Miss
Cope with gifts, possibly depriving
his family of comfort while so doing,
did he call it blackmail? Not so, Be-
ing man, he probably smiled indul-
gently at his own folly and called it
paying the fiddler" But when he
has tired of the relation, ana the
woman still demands money, it is
blackmail. The Mann act was TN
doubtedly aimed at a different phase
of human weakness and wickedness,
but it is also helping to make it diff
fcult for men to enter into temporary
immoral relations with the weak
women and then when they tire Ct
the relation to shove these women
down still deeper into the mire. The
editor of the Courier-News need not
worry about Miss Cope getting hers
along with the colonel. OF course she
will get it. She will get public con-
demnation, isolation from most good
men and women. She will be
frowned upon and kept from earning
an honest living, even If she tries.
What will the colonel get? He for
sooth will be required to pay a little
money, and then the presumption Is
that the blot upon society and his soul
will be removed so far as he is con-
cerned. His fellow men will pat him
on the back and chuckle at the ease
with which he "got out of it,, and pos
sibly some very good women will in
vite him to dinner and carefully avoid
the reference to his little indiscretioI.
1t must be that this age is more ma
terial than we thought, if the attempt
to make man pay money to the wo'
man he has ruined is called an attempt
to "hold him up" No matter how
much coin of the realm he pays, the
woman always pays more, for she pays
with her ideals, her reputation, and
all that makes life worth living to the
woman"
