NOW VIEWING
PROPOSED SITES
Equity Society Committee Was in
This City Last Friday And
Wore Shown What
WAHPETON HAS TO OFFER
In the Way Of a Site For Its Loca-
ton Here. Local Committee
Taken by Surprise

The packing plant committee
composed of P. M. Casey of Lis
bon, Anthony Walton, of Minot
and z. j. Lee of Valley City, ar
rived in the city early Friday morn
ing, this being one of the likely
places on their itinerary for the
location of packing plant.
The committee arose somewhat
late Thursday morning. but I'M
mcdiatrly got busy and called ON
the local committee to show them
the sites that were offered as fca-
sible places for the location of the
packing plant. The local commit
tee was somewhat taken by sur
prise, as they had not counted on
them coming SO soon, but were
not daunted in the least, as Wah-
peton has the best sites i'm the
state what had the local commit
tee to fear. Just before noon the
committees in charge of Oscar j
Olson, president of the CONNER
cial club. drove to- the locations
picked out by the local committee
and then returned t" this city.
In the meantime however, the
local citizens, a live to The pro-
gress and future prosperity ui
Wahpeton gathered at the Mer-
chants hotel where they partook
of spread in honor of the Wis
iting committee. After the feast
was over. the citizens and com
mltt""s adjourned tu meet immed
lately at the Commercial Club
rooms. Then at this place num-
ber of speeches were innrder and
those taking part We're Senator
Purcell. Rep. \. q. Div"t and Hon.
G.. J. Lee" of Valley City.
Senator Purcell spoke aInn.
Equity lines and after his talk was
over the visiting committee said
that they w"r" going to see to it
that Senator Purcell was oh tn"
next State Equity meet program.
Mr.. Div"t in his speech clearly
outlined the location of WaI,pr-
ton over other cities in this state
anG as there was a railroad map
hanging on the wall he clearly
proved beyond a shadow of doubt
that "all roads lead to Wahprtnn.' -
Mr.. G.. J. Lee then was called
upon and he told the gathering
just what The farmers of this
state w"r" wanting and how they
wcr" going to build packing
plant somewhere in this state. H.
also outlined in a brief way Just
how much the farmers wer" los
ing on shipping to eastern mar
k"tS and our prices here and the
Liverpool markets. above all px-
ponseS nn a buShel of wheat.
This committee concluded Nv.
Lee is not being paid for its tim"
but just the actually expense and
during this trip they had encoun-
tered severe weather everywhere
they went. making il more of IL
hardship than pleasure.
The meeting then adjourned in
the Commercial Club rooms. and
then the two committees got TO-
gether and talked matters over.

covered. Muscular exercise is
wholesome. and the child can
hardly get too much: hence it is
unwise to have hi, body, feet or
arms confined tightly by clothing.
AS the child grows, it requires
more freedom of action and de-

nerve are required. the most val

base tricks diseased nerves play
on the unfortunate possessor. The
nervous child is miserable with
all the luxuries wealthy and dot
ing parents can procure; on the
other hand, the child with normal
nerves is always happy playing con
tenledly with the meanest kind of
toys. Thus children grow into
manhooGl and womanhood,-the
one goes through life burden to
himself and to his friends; the
other sees glorious visions, and
work. no matter how strenuous

governs every function of the

morbid nerve impulses gallop of

the gentle glow of nerve impulses
act normally, being under as COM
