DEVILS LAKE To
HAVE A CLUBHOUSE

Devils. Lake, II. D.,.April 21.-Defi-
mite decision was reached at the an
nual banquet of the Devils Lake
Yacht and Boat CLUB Saturday, to
start work Immediately on the cree
ticn of q handsome club house on the
shores Of Devils Lake just as early
as possible, providing a permanent
home for the ''tars' who spend the
summer on the salt water of North
Dakota's inland sea. ". r.. Mayer,
Rollo f. Hunt and Lloyd Stevens
were elected new members of the
board of directors, succeeding Bland
ing Fisher, Walter Furstenau and
Robert Collinson. The hold-over mem
bers Of the board are: s. c. Hagen,
Howard Maher, L. D. Smell, John
Ford, Edward F. Flynn and Chas.
Cockburn. The officers will be elect,
ed by the board.
Preliminary plans for the club
house will be drawn at once and sub
mitted at a meeting April 20. This
will be followed April % by a grand
ball, following which an active cam
paign will be inaugurated. In order
to increase the membership to include
every boating enthusiast in the Lake
Region, the initial fee OF SIS has been
eliminated and the annual dues will,
this year, be reduced from $12 to $40.
During the past couple of years the
Yacht and Boat club has taken an ac-
tive part in the life of the lake shore.
With a handsome club house, where
dances can be held, as we'll as other
social functions, theer is every rea-
son to believe the organization will
gain still more in popularity.

GERMAN PLEASED
Rl1H Showing
Back From Front He Is optimis.:
tic Over Ultimate Rsult
Of War.

Berlin, March 21.-'I have come
back from the front as a convinced
optimist, even if there are some
things which j cannot EXPLAIN writes
a correspondent Of the Frankfurter
Zeitung, who has recently been max
ing a round OF the German trenches
in Belgium and northern France. He
was particularly impressed with the
work which the German authorities
have accomplished in the occupied
districts Of both Belgium and France,
where, he says, every conceivable pro-
vision has been made 10 rthe time
when our powerful army shall break
over the borders into the interior Of
France" All the railways and roads,
he observes, have been brought to
the highest efficiency for that object
i've. He continues:
1.-The pause has been used to the
utmost advantage. The north OF
France and Belgium have been trans
formed into a German border prov
ince, whose granaries, ammunition
depots and bases for the provision
of war supplies are overlooking and
ready, at a sign, to send thousands OF
tons to the front, while the hospitals
and transports for the wounder are
marveiously organized. All the war
like preparations in the west have
been placed on a new and %eXtraordi-
narily strong footing.
"In many respects these prepara-
tions surpass even our German mo-
bilization. Here. in the depots you
feel how this preparation for war has
been thought out in the most concen-
trated way. An unprecedented en-
e is devoted to it. While greater
and greater masses Of men are being
hurled against our wall outside-with
only a wave now and then breaking
over the dam, while our trenches are
sending the storming parties home
again with bloody cost, all the time
our inner fortress is being more heav-
lily armed until the signal for a new
offensive can be given. K~itchener's
millions and the new French army
have never alarmed us, although we
must not underestimate them. But it
is one of our characteristics to look
only to the front and to believe in
the existence of what We can clearly
perceive. ..t... ....
Before I went to the front, all &C.
counts and stories Of the war left me
unconinced. Even when I passed
through the trenches in front of
Rheims, where the front of the tow
ers of the Cathedral still stand out
almost uninjured; when l walked
over the heights which dominate Ar
ras, that junction of important rail
ways and roads; when | heard the
thunder of the cannon by Ypres,
where the trenches are driven right
up to the town, l had a lively desire
to criticize. Why had we not held on
to these towns? We were once in
them! Why hsd we not closed the
gap between our right wing and the
North Sea In the days when Antwerp
was being taken, so that Calais and
Dunkirk might now be in our posses
