New President Is Here.
e. S. Person of Minot, who is
here attending the convention,
has recently been elected prcsi-

Breeders association. The association
was organized at Minot last week and
there are nineteen charter members

requirements of membership. MI.
Person looks for a marked increase in
the membership when the benefits Of
the association are better known. He
stated that the recent milk and feed
contest held there under the direction
of the state dairy department was a
decided success and that a good deal
of interest in the dairy game was
worked up as a result of the meet

One of the interesting exhibits in

cooking lone IN an electric stove. The
current is generated by the aid of a
windmill which in this case is pro-

WEDDING TAKES PLACE IN
A NEIGHB0RING CITY
William Henry Harrison)

The wedding which occurred in
our midst last evening was about the
same as usual.
About half hour after the exer-
cises was scheduled to begin, the
bride come in the front door of the
church hanging onto her father who
was more dressed up than We have
ever saw him.
She walked up the isle with her
head down and she had on some kind
of a white dress and a white vale
which was so thin that everybody
could see right through it, and it
was probably wore more for d orna-
ment than for use, and it was also a
sight bigger than was necessary.
The organist was plying a tune
that goes like this-tum, turn, te,
tum.
The preacher and the groom and
his best man come out of the preach
ers study to the right of the church
They must have been there all the
time because there is not but one
door to that room unless they clumb
through the window. They was
dressed up like fellows in a story
but they was easy recognizable by
all present.
The minister had on his preach
ing suite, which he bought With the
money the church and Sunday school
give him for Christmas last year.
Ills salary having not been paid for
three months everybody felt as if
they had ought to be more free
handed with his Christmas presents.
The servises was conducted the
same as usual on this occasion, ex-
cept the groom left the ring in his
other pants pocket and had to give
it to the blushing bride later on af-
terwards.
The wedding come as great
shock to everybody including the
friends of the bride and groom as
these people have been going togeth-
er about eight years and a half and
you would have thought that if they
had of had any notion of getting
married they would have did so long
ago.
There friends are wishing for
them all the happiness that can
reasonably be expected under the
circumstances

In the eternal night-carried never

Can | not on the vast ocean of Time
Throw the anchor one day?

And near the waves that YOU hoped
TO see again,
See-I come alone on this SANDY
Where she used to sit.
The sounds were thus on this peb-

Where you spread the crest of brok-
en- billows,
And the soft, caressing wind threw
the foam
On her adored feet.
One eyening-do you remember
we silently sailed,
We heard in the distance-on thy
surface-in the skies
The soft chant-the sweet murmur-

OF your harmonious waters.
And all at once, sounds unknown on
land
Echoed to the distant shores; III
charming ecstacies
Thy deep waters attentiyely listened
to voice
Who sang these words.
Oh, Time, Check your flight! and
you propitious hours,
Stop your course. Let us enjoy these
delicious moments,
The sweetest of our days.
For many unfortunates in this world
Beg OF you to flow without them;
Take with you the care that op-
presses,
But forget the happy ones.
But ask in vain a few more mo-

Time escapes and flies;
beg this night to be slower-but

Replaces the night.

Let us haste, let us be happy!
Man has no harbor, Time has no

AN old SETTLER
IS CALLED HON1E
D. F. Booth Answered Summons of
Death Monday at Home of His
Daughter in Langdon

Monday afternoon about one o'clock
at the home of his daughter, Mrs
w. A. Bolton, occurred the death of
Mr.. David F. Booth, aged seventy
nine years and four days, the illness
which had Immediately preceded
his death having lasted about three
weeks, during which time he was

ceased has been in poor health and
gradually growing more feeble in
health and strength for upwards a
year past with every indication of a
breaking up of the old gentleman s
otherwise rugged and healthy consti-
tuition, due entirely to the advance of
ripe old age.
David F. Booth was born at Brock
vile, Ont, on August Goth, 1885,
and as young man, back in the
sixties, came west to the territory of
Dakota, at that time an unbroken
plain extending from St. Paul and
Fort Totten westward toFort Pembina
and from there to Fort Garry, the
future site of the metropolis Of Mani
toba,. AS a squatter, before the
making of the government survey, he
became a settler on land which is
now in the city of Grand Forks and to
day trees alongside the Hotel Daco-
tab show where the claim shack of
Mr.. Booth stood, that was soon des-
tined to be the site of one of the two
largest cities in the state. He had
BEEN in the hardware business before
leaving Ontario for the west but upon
reaching the Red River Valley, he,
with others who blazed the trail, took
|.2p farming. A quarter of century
since along with his wife and two
daughters he moved from Grand Forks
county to Park River and some nine
years later his wife died at that
place, since which time he has made
his home at that place with his
/ daughters, Mrs. Chamberlain and
I Mrs. Bolton, coming to Langdon with
the latter when Mr. Bolton was re-
moved here from Hannah as agent of
the Great Northern railroad company.
In the years that he had made Lang
don his home Mr. Booth was recog-
nized as one of the city's most useful
and progressive citizens, always one
of those first to take hold of any pro-
ject for the welfare and best interest
of the community in which he lived.
He was man that Langdon people
will for some time miss from theil
s.-anidst.
