Farewell toSt. Mary:

Sunday, Nov. IA, was the last Sun.
day Father sailer celebrated mass at
St. Mary's. The entire congregation
was greatly taken by surprise to learn
that their beloved pastor, who for
more than Is years had worked among
them, was to leave for another field.
After church the people assembled
at the hospitable home of John VIE
land, where arrangements had been
made to tender the pastor farewell
reception. John Wieland, in behalf of
the congregation, expressed his regret
in a few well-chosen words on the loss
of their priest and presented the pas

Mrs. Chas.- Otto and Mrs. Nello
Smith gave dainty little party Satur-
day afternoon in honor Of their little
daughters first birthday anniversary
which occurred on that late, at the
home of Mrs. Otto in the sheyenne
apartments. The color scheme was
pink, and was carried out in various
ways. Pink carnations graced the CEN
ter of the dining table, while tiny pinh
candles were at each place. The place
cards were cunning little snapshots of
the two babies, and the birthday cake
boasted one lone candle. The refresh.
ments were suitable to young ladies
of that tender age, and the party was
very enjoyable, not alone to the tiny
guests, who numbered six, but to the
mothers who were also in attendance.

Is Cheated
. Of Victim

While skating on the river near the
east park bridge Sunday afternoon
Harold Raney, the 16-year-old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. D. S. Raney, North
Fourth avenue, came near losing his
life in the icy waters of the Sheyenne.
In spite Of the fact that the ice has
not yet reached the safe stage for
skating, quite a number Of daring
skaters have ventured on it, and Har-
old, seeing others enjoying the sport
tried it for himself. He felt the ice
giving and tried to make quick cross
ing to safety, finally getting down on
his knees to creep over the spot, but
the ice broke, letting him in. he grab
bed the branch of tree, and some
boys nearby threw him a rope, but
this broke when he was halfway out.
The extra pressure on the tree was
too much and he gradually slipped in
to the water up to his chin, when
George Webster pushed a plank to
him, to which he clung for some Is
minutes before rope could be thrown
to him. He was finally hauled from
the chilly bath after being in the water
about a half hour, and hurried to his
home, where he was cared for and
aside from few bruises from contact
with the ice, and little stiffness from
the exposure, he is none the worse, but
rather feels that he will profit by the
experience and wait hereafter until
the ice is safe.

Fargo Wants the
Equity's Proposed
Packing Plant

Fargo Forum: It seems to be up to
the epople of Fargo whether this city
is to get large, modern packing plant
that will cost 100000.
It has been announced that at
meeting of the North Dakota Society
OF Equity, held here the first of the
month, it was decided to erect large
packing plant that would be built en-
tirely by farmer capital and that this
great plant will be located here or at
Valley City or Minot, all three places
being under consideration and the mat
ter Of finally choosing the location be-
ing in the hands Of committee which
was appointed by the Equity society
and which is composed of G. J. Lee, Of
Valley City, Arthur Walton, Of Minot,
and M. P. Casey, Of Lisbon.
This committee now has the mat
ter Of site under consideration, but it
cannot be learned when IL will make
report and 1t would seem that Far
go's chances to secure this big plant
rest with the people Of the city.
. n The packing plant, which will be q
modern and complete one in every re-
spect, will be built entirely by the
farmers Of the state, who have realized
for long time the value Of live stock
but who find that under present con-
ditions the raising Of live stock is not
profitable. To make it profitable they
believe that the thing to do is toabuild
their own plant right here in the state
and dispose Of the manufactured prod
ucts Of the plant largely in the state
and the territory tributary to It.
The farmers Of the Equity society
seem to have the idea that Fargo peo-
pie are averse to these organizations
and it would seem that this is the time
for the people OF the city to prove to
the farmers that this is not the truth
regardless Of what may have transpir-
ed in the past to give the farmers this
impression.
OF course from q. purely business
standpoint Fargo speaks for itself and
would be. an ideal location for plant
Of this kind for the simple reason that
this is the logical distributing point.
! 1t is a business matter to the farmers
and the indications are that they will
look at It as such.
TO Fargo such . plant would mean
much @ It would bring. II $50 fam.

Governor Hanna Told
Of Wonderful Growth
Of Wealth in Our Stat

Governor L. B. Hanna on Tuesday
was the principal speaker at the
North Dakota Appreciation Week"
exercises held at the State Normal
school here on the occasion of the gov
ernor's visit to Noltimier township.
These exercises were held this morn
ing in order to have the chief execu-
tive of the state present.
After opening the exercises, Presi-
dent Mcfarland called upon Prof. w.
M. Wemett, who arranged the morn
ing's program, to act as chairman Of
the day. Mr.. Wemett called upon a
student representative of each county
in the state, for a short statement de-
scriptive of that county. Forty-four
counties were represented by stu
dents who told of their grain and coal
producing record, railroad advantages.
etc., until the stranger in the state
must have been pretty well convinced
that North Dakota is not only one of
the coming states in the union from
the standpoint of productiveness and
desirability as place to call "home,"
but it already leads many in the pro-
cession.
In his address, Governor Hanna re-
called conditions prevalent in Dakota
territory at the beginning of state
hood and showed what remarkable
progress had been made in the last 26
or q years. He spoke of the schools,
the well-supported churches, and in
relating his experience at a California
banquet last summer the governor
drew a hearty laugh from the large
audience. He had been introduced as
the governor from the frozen north
and retaliated by saying that their
earnings allow ten North Dakotans to
spend their winters in California to
every one Californian who spends his
summer in North Dakota.
North Dakota, the governor pointed
out, is the richest state per capita in
the union. We have no multi-million-
aires and we have few in extreme pow
erty. Opportunities are just as good
in this state as ever. The governor
predicted great power plants in the
coal belts of the state and said that as
prosperous state we had only begun.
He closed his address with an appeal
for cooperation on the part of the cit
liens of the state in order to bring
all these fine opportunities to a fine
consummation. ."
