growth. Everybody seems cheerful

Church, and by other persons compe'
tent to have an opinion, that our mis-
sion, within it's limits, is one OF the
best in the country. The schools are

"Soochow University is developing
finely, and all the schools OF the
Woman's Department are IN healthy
condition. l am especially pleased
with the work at Sungkiang Bible

MUNICIPAL RINK
I. PROVES POPULAR
Excellent Skating Surface Now
Available for All Bismarck
Residents.

BY far the most popular institution
in Bismarck at the present time is the
municipal ice skating rink at the cor
ner of Avenue B and Ninth streets.
Through the concerted efforts of a
number of local residents, Bismarck
now has an ice rink which affords a
healthy exercise, and sport to all who
care to avail themselves of the OPP
portunity.
Credit for the rink must be given
Judge A. A. Bruce and Prof. George
T. Bresnahan of the high school fac
ulty. Both men have been untiring
in their efforts to secure a municipal
rink for the city, and have been sue
cessful in the face of innumerable
obstacles. After a site was secured
and the preliminary work finished, a
number of public spirited citizens as
sisted in the project. Funds were
donated by the Bismarck Play.
grounds association. The city COM.
mission furnished several lengths of
fire hose for flooding the rink, the
Bismarck Water Supply company fur
nished free water and the Hughes
Electric company installed lights and
maintained them free Of charge.
The rink is kept in first-class con-
dition all the time, and the skating
surface, which is 225 feet long by Is
feet wide, compares favorably with
the skating surfaces in some of the
largest and best ice Kinks in the
country. AE
Plans are being formulated now for
winter sports carnival for high school
and grade school students. No def
mite date has been set as yet, but a
number of racing, and special events
will be arranged. The events will in.
clude go yard dash, open to all stu.
dents, in six classes, upper and lower
grades, and the four high school
classes. Special events will be the

FOR SALVATION OF CHINA & / !. |

A great appeal for the salvation Of
China was made by Miss Jennie
Hughes, the noted Methodist Eptsco-
pal church missionary to Kiugiang,
China, who lectured Sunday evening
in the McCabe Methodist church.
Miss Hughes gave a graphic descrip-
ton of her work in the Orient and
told, as only missionary can tell,
of the great needs for funds and mis-
sionaries in this great country, with
its 450,O00,0O0 of people. @
She touched on many sides of the
work in China and told Interestingly
of the eagerness of the Chinese PEG.
pie for the Christian religion. The
great bars. of prejudice against the
Christian religion are down and from
all walks of life they come to the
missionaries, begging for teacher
to learn of the white peoples Saw,
our. Miss Hughes has been called
to her home in New Jersey by the
illness OF her mother and is taking
the opportunity of telling of the work
to secure funds for the advancement
of her work. A liberal offering was
lifted at the close of her address and
will be used for the building of
new school there. '

tMandan, n. d., Jan. .24.-The re-
port of Secretary II. S. Russell of the
NMandan Creamery and Produce COM
pany, read at the annual meeting of
the company held yesterday at the
Commercial club rooms, shows that
this company though less than year
old, has done very gratifying bust,
ness, and that the prophesies that
there was good field in this city
for such an institution have been
fully justified. .. ..-. .r .A-
While the business Of the company
is matter Of interest directly to the
stockholders, the public is more or
less interested in knowing that the
company's business is growing, and
that though hampered with the work
of organization, installing a new
plant. etc, the company has done a
business of nearly $4,000, and over
$4,000 has been paid out to farmers
for cream, eggs and other produce.
The business shows slight profit
for this year, which is very crafty
ing, as the expense of getting the
business started was heavy. and there
is prospect for a very large increase
in the business during the coming
year. ...-.

ors for the ensuing year: w. A. Ian
