4 FREE. EXHIBITION
Free Moving Picture Lecture Of Maxwell Auto
Factory at Electric Theatre

Moving picture lecture of Maxwell
factories to be given at the Electric
Theatre Thursday afternoon and even
ing, December 10th, 1914. On Thurs
day afternoon and evening, December
10th, MCLAUGHLIN & Stranger, the
local dealers for the Maxwell motor
sales corporation, will present for the
entertainment Of the public free
moving picture lecture entitled,
From Molten Steel to Automobiles, -
which has created one of the big SEN
sations in the moving picture world,
and is one Of the most instructive en-
tertainments that Langdon has ever
witnessed. There are four thousand
feet of moving picture film, and every
detail pertaining to the manufacture
of up to date motor cars is shown
Beginning with the steel mills the
work is carried down on through the
chemical laboratories, the foundry,
forge and machine departments. The
assembly departments are shown in
detail and complete automobile is
made. assembled and tested right be-
fore the audience. Another added
feature, and by far the most novel
attraction will be views of the Max
we'll car in the various parts of the
country. This has taken the form of
a travelogue and some wonderful bits
Of scenery, as well as races, hill
climbs, etc., are shown. H. E. john
son, factory expert, will accompany
the pictures and lecture on them. We
feel that such instructive as we'll as
interesting and entertaining lectures
as these should be encouraged by the
residents Of Langdon and hope that
all will attend. Free tickets on ap-
plication to MCLAUGHLIN & Stranger.
Children must be accompanied by pa
rents. Afternoon performance begins
| at four o'clock. This has been ar
ranged especially for people from the
country districts and large number
should attend.

HOUSEHOLD CARES
They Tax the Women of the City of Langdon
the Same as Elsewhere

Hard to attend to household duties
with constantly aching back. A
woman should not have a bad back,
and she seldom would if the kidneys
were well; Doan's kidney pills are
endorsed by thousands; have been used
in kidney trouble over SO years. Read
what this Langdon woman says:
my back ached most of the time
and I was so. lame and sore that I
couldn't do my house work, - says
Mrs. H. Wolff, Langdon. II was
also troubled with headaches and dizzy
spells, the kidney secretions caused me
annoyance; after taking remedies
without getting any benefit decided
to try Doan's kidney pills the first
box improved my condition; am now
able to do my work with ease"
Price SOC at all dealers; don't simply
ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's

thinker and a close student Of the ex-
isting conditions OF the. present day
among the farmers of the Northwest
ern states. The United Farmers
clubs will Try to get Mr.. Greeley to
come again next summer.
The next speaker on the program
was Professor Boyle of the state uni
versity who first of all spoke of the
interest he had in seeing the farmers
get together on mutual interests and
like Editor Geeley advised them to
stay. hereez and build up homes. He
said that the cause of the farmers not
doing better was largely their lack Of
cooperation and the lack Of standard
of goods they had to sell. He told
of several instances in proof of what
he had said. Of cooperation he SEEM
ed to think that the closer the indi-
vidual member looked after the execu-
tive heads of their organizations the
more successful and the better they
would get along in every way. He
was confident that the farmer was
competent in every way to manage
his own affairs without the proffere
aid of the classes of industry and
cited in proof of his statement the
mutual hail insurance company, a
trainers oganization at Jamestown
that is proving to be a success in
every way and has been in business
for the past quarter of a century in
this state. He also called attention
70 number of other farmer organiza-
tions over the state. In regard to
the much talked about middle man he
said that the farmer would have to
own him, or in other words tc have
him of their own class instead of be-
ing speculator and by all means
advised farmers to trust themselves
to solve their own difficulties. Prof
essor Boyle is very interesting
speaker and possesses a humor that
helps to give him the closest atten-
| tion of the listener. 1t was getting
late when Professor Donahue took the
platform, but in his short address he
impressed the farmer with the neces-
sity of getting acquainted with and
knowing each others needs. To CO.
operate, in all things that would
profit them and to guard against the
waste on the farm. He handled his
subject in very thorough and con-
vincing manner.
After the speakers had finished
those Of the delegates present had a
short business session and decided to
have the next meeting in Osnabrock
some time in the latter part Of the
month of January. $50

FARMERS CLUBS
MEET IN lANGDON
United Farmers Clubs Of Cavalier
County Gathered in Langdon
Last Wednesday
THREE SPEAKERS COME HERE
Gold Stormy Weather is Blamed For
Light Attendance of Members
From Over County

Editor Courier Democrat
The delegates of the United Farm
ers clubs of Cavalier county, met at
Langdon, on Wednesday of last week,
the 18th inst, and, had small at
tendance, only about half of the clubs
being represented, on account of the
bad stormy weather which prevailed
at the time. The program committee
had done their work we'll. There were
three speakers here from distance
to talk to those who had braved the
elements to attend the meeting. Ed
itor Greeley, of the Dakota Farmer,
Professor Boyle, from the state uni
versity at Grand Forks, and Professor
Donahue, of the state agricultural
college at Grand Forks On account
of the small attenance it was decided
to let most of the routine business go
over until the next meeting, which it
is probable will be called before the
opening up Of the spring season.
Editor Greeley spoke first. He said
that this farmers movement was a
natural evolution of the existing con-
ditions and that you might just as
we'll try to stop the falls at Niagara
as to attempt to stop the farmers
from taking these things into their
own hands and from their intervention
of the hold now held on these lines by
'big business. - He also spoke of
high land prices as being detriment
to the best interests of the country as
whole. He said that when prices
where higher than the production Of
the land it became general desire
upon the part of the holder to sell and
move away. He went on to show
that this retarded the real improve
ment and progress among the farmers
of that community 1t was also shown
that this applied equally as much to
the east as it does to those HE in
the west. Editor Greeley impressed
upon his hearers that he wantedathem
etossettle down for life and divide their
Fland amongst their children and Went
on fuIt Ither to argue that if a man
could not make a living off of an
eighty acre farm there was either
something wrong with his constitution
or with his method of farming. The
speaker showed himself to be deep
