GIFTS FROM ~. S. A."
How American Sympathy with the
Warning Nations Can Be Made Clear.

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Letters from friends in England
and on the Continent have made me
fear that the people in the countries at
war do not realize the intense interest
and sympathy we in the United States
feel for those suffering nations. For
this reason l have begun marking sup
plies am sending "From U. S. A." and
am inducing my friends to do the same.
Rubber stamps with indelible ink for
this purpose may be easily obtained,
and marking with a rubber stamp adds
little to the work of preparing boxes
for the wounded or homeless aud PEN
niless. Will you make this suggestion
through your paper TO other workers
for the purpose of increasing the
friendly feeling between our country
and those whom we hope to aid with
our heads when the time for deciding
terms of peace arrives, ss we are aiding
now with our purses and our hands?

MARRIAGE AND A CAREER
Both Are Possible for Some Women,
Ii Is Argued.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Mrs. Seton. your Englewood
correspondent, would have women
choose either marriage or a career. No
allowance is made for the many women
who are fitted for marriage and a
career Such stand cannot be taken
without making bywords of human lib
erty and justice. The fact that there
is nothing more important than the
welfare OF the children should not blind
US TO the fact that many wives and
mothers are so situated from the point
of health and other circumstances that
they are able TO teach, or 70 follow
other professions, and st the same time
do full justice to their household
duties and TO their children. There
come TO mind the cases OF several
mothers, formerly teachers, whose hus-
bands have died and left them with
children of school age. To prevent
these women from earning their living
teaching, a position which they can hil
more ably than many unmarried
women, is 10 make an unfair discrimi-
nation against marriage and mother
hood.
My definition OF "a woman who JUS
titles her existence by productive work
of some kind" certainly would not ex-
clude the mother. II raising children
is not productive work there is moth
ing which may be dignifed by that
name. The fact remains that there

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Two young Americans are con-
templating a trip across the United
States from New York City to San
Francisco, Cal, by foot. Our objects
in this hike are several-to meet differ
ent people, TO see the United States at
first hand and visit the Panama Pacific
Exposition to be held in California in
1915.
Realizing that this is a difficult un-
dertaking, We thought 1t wise 70 ask
some Of The Tribune readers, some Of
whom may have had experience along
this line, to tell US what they think
of the idea. We would be very thank-

|ORCAN|ST NEARLY
QUARTER Century AGO
MRS. JEAN McNAUGHTON STEW
EMS, OLD TIME PRESBYTERIAN
ORGANISE, VISITS CHURCH AT
DEDICATION OF NEW PIPE OR
en-.
Editor Independents:

Editor Independent: "A. y
With pleasure tell you of the treat
it was to me to attend the Presbyter-
ian church Sunday evening and note
progress. :.
The beautiful pipe organ, SO well
handled by the organist, made the
Praise service delightful, and the great
congregation filling not only all the
pews, but row of chairs in the aisles
and every vacant space, showed that
the heart of Minot is sound, and that
the citizens care for justice, temper
ance, and the judgment to come.
There was fine choir, which was
just as good to look at, as to listen to.
They were earnest, and their enun-
citation was clear and distinct. | en-
joyed the soloists, especially Major
Person.
The ushers were busy, and it is good
to see such men as Mr.. Van Fleet and
DR.. MCDANIEL serving their neighbors
so we'll. They can surely answer Eyes"
to the question, "Am l my brothers
keeper ?"
The pastor, Rev. Erickson, grows in
sound Judgment and weight, with the
years. He has surely heard the trum-a
pet call Of St. Paul, "Quit you like
men, be strong"
The message of DR.. Kearns Of Min
neapolis was a searching of the spirit
for every hearer and the tense still
ness of that vast audience testified TO
the home-thrusts of his stirring ap-
peal for genuine civic Righteousness.
MANY old friends of the years gone
by greeted me; Mrs. M. A. Mcdaniel,
who was one Of the first members OF
the church and who has served the
community we'll, not only in the La
dies Aid but in Mission circles; Mrs.
VIM. Murray, whose whole life has
been one of loving service, on whose
tongue the law of kindness dwells, my
hostess, Mrs. Truax, whose whole life
has been sheltered by the church she
serves so well, Rev. w. c. Hunter, who
served Minot and Mouse River Pres
bytery so long and so we'll, and friends
of more recent date, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hetherton, leaders of the Burns club,
who are now good American citizens,
and better ones, too, because they sing
the songs of the Old Land, now SO sad
ly busy with the wounded. y
[ So, during this Thanksgiving sea-
son, "Here I raise my Ebenezer" once
more, glad and thankful for our own
peace and quietness, hopeful Of bet
ter world-peace as the outcome OF the
tribulations in Europe, and quite sure
that "God reigns and all will be we'll"
Yours in Faith and Hope,
s.-...,r Jean McNaughton Stevens.

and the men claim they got it by mis-
take. They stated that they had been
engaged to haul wheat for another
party living near and got into the
wrong granary. They stated that they
had gone to the country to skin a
horse and two butcher knives and an
axe were found in their wagon.

The Praise Continues.
Everywhere We Hear Good Reports
of Doan's Kidney Pills.

Minot is no exception. Every sec
ton of the U. s. resounds with praise
of Doan's Kidney Pills. Thirty thous-
and persons are giving testimony in
their home newspapers. The sincerity
of these witnesses, the fact that they
live so near, is the best proof of the
merit Of Doan's. Here's Minot case.
J. NJ. Horst, 615 Washington St.,
Minot, N. D., says: "For long time

lar. had severe, cutting pains across
my kidneys and q dull, bearing-down
pain through my hips, loins and limbs.

city, Boom and Fagen, were in charge
of the load, and owing to the fact that
no direct evidence could be produced to
show that they had meant to steal the
wheat, the circumstances look sus-
picious.
1t was shown that the wheat had
been taken from the H. O. Dalen farm

4, Asks State for an Auto.

AS a reward for having family of
seventeen children, P. K. Delaney of
Seguin, Guadalupe county, has re-
quested the governor of Texas to give
him and his wife and children an auto
mobile to convey them to and from
church and Sunday school, the church
being seven miles from where they
live. ". ~"
The request came in a letter receiv-
ed by the governor, and accompanying
it was a picture of the family. De-
Laney writes:
