With nearly $4,000 pledged yester-
day the grand total reached $88,132
last night. The goal seems assured.
No sacrifice seems to be too great
for the men and women to make who
are engaged in the great Fargo college
campaign. Some days ago even the
most optimistic wondered If Fargo
would be able to make good. Today
there is not a doubt in the mind Of
any Fargo citizen. The business men
OF Fargo have learned a new lesson
during the past few days. They have
discovered the real power Of union and
concentration Of large group Of men
and women on a definite task within
a definite time. AS the campaign
manager said on the opening night of
the campaign, there is nothing that
this group Of men and women cannot
do"
Not withstanding the fact that the
goal set for the campaign seems as
sured. not worker is letting down on
his task until the tape line has been
broken and there is a feeling taking
hold Of the entire organization that
this campaign ought to exceed the
100000 by an amount sufficient to
cover all shrinkage and campaign ex-
penses. A good liberal amount over
the 100000 gold, would be a most
valuable thing for Fargo. Every dol
lar secured over the 100000 will be
the choicest kind of advertising for
Fargo for the world will know that
Fargo is a real city; that Fargo is

for the people of North Dakota, younG
and old, than the three weeks as

which opens Friday June 26, and con-
tnues seventeen, days, closing Sunday,

ON the banks of the pretty Sheyenne

both entertainment and instruction
have been added to the varied pro-

A State Institution.
Within the last two years the Valley
City chautauqua has developed from
a local enterprise into a statewide in
st1tution and has become one of the
greatest chautauquas of the country.
While following closely in the foot
steps of the parent chautauqua at
Chautauqua, New York the Valley
City association has independently
sought to meet the peculiar conditions
of North Dakota and has sturdily
SLILNSn W dAu Ill the OeNelOpQ6nC OF
this great agricultural mmonwealth.
This development of the local chautau-
qua is no less to the credit of it's far
seeing and energetic secretary-mana-
ger, Alex Karr, than to the hearty
and united support ofthe citizens Of
Valley City.
A BrimfuI Program.
More than $4,000 has been raised
in gifts to back this chautauqua, two
farmers and their wives contributing
1000 each to the development Of the
already extensive work for boys aud
girls, particularly farm boys and farm
girls. The extension work is very
extensive and every visitor at the as
sembly will find many things of es-
pecial interest. The chautauqua con-
tinues for seventeen days but every
day will be crowded with events. In
fact it will be impossible for anyone
to do and see everything worth while
which will be provided and choice will |
have to be made according to the
individual tastes and preferences.

Chairman Page then announced that
possibly he would not need all their
money to defeat Division A and he

probably right when it refers to the
Valley City chautauqua as the greatest
summer school in the United States.
A Great Dairy School.
One Of the big events for the as
sembly this year will be the two weeks
dairy school conducted by State Dairy
Commissioner Flint and a score of able
instructors and demonstrators. There
will be classes for the boys and girls,
and classes for the farmer AMI his
wife. The instruction will be thorough

already taken up dairying as we'll as
to the farmer who is just planning to
take up the new industry.
Child Welfare Conference.
But the entire program is not de-
voted to the farm alone. Far from
1t. The Child Welfare conference un-
der direction Of Prof. Rudolf Acher of
the Valley City Normal school and the
Womans Home Companion, will be a
feature which will interest everybody
and especially all mothers. The chau-
tauqua has secured the complete ma
tional exhibit Of the Child Welfare
conference held in New York and this
will be arranged in special tent. A
Better Babies contest has been arrang-
ed and child experts will consult with
and advise mothers free of charge.
Many Other Features.
The kindergarten work and play
ground work will again be a special
feature. Both these departments will
be under the direction of trained men
and women. The Bible school will be
conducted throughout the chautauqua
by Prof. Wallace N. Stearns of Fargo
