Messrs. Arther Ramstad and
William Asker who are attend
ing the School of Forestry at
Bottineau came up on the train
Saturday evening to attend the
band concert returning home
the same evening by way of
the Great Northern right of
way.
Miss Odena Knudsvig of
Bottineau visited with Miss
Caroline Glomseth north of
town over Sunday. Both the
young ladies intended to return
Monday but the train was
blockaded up the line and did
not get through at all Monday,
SO they were the guests of Miss
Naomi Berg until Tuesday.
John Worst of the Fargo
Agricultural college. who was
booked to speak here Feb. 20,
but had to cancel his date; an
nounces that he will be here
without fail Tuesday, Mar. 81.
W. are looking for a big turn
out on this occasion if the
weather permits as Mr.. Worst
is we'll known in this communi-

A number of our young ladies
north of town observed Leap
Year Day on Feb. 20 by calling
on their neighbor beaus. The
young ladies walked and while
on their way one of them had
the misfortune of freezing her
ear so that it pulled up to the
size of a saucer. Love will
drive a person to do most any
thing, but you should worry.
Jasper Hoibrenden went to
Rugby Friday morning to see
his daughter Hanna who was
operated on Thursday. Mr.
Hoibrenden returned home the
same evening and reports that
his daughter is getting along
as we'll as expected and that
hopes for her recovery were
good. 1t was indeed good
news to Miss Hanna's many
friends as she has been suffer
ing considerable for some time,
The many friends of Aft Ho-
Wind of this vicinity. who at
tends theSchool ofForestry had
the pleasure of reading his
story, The Veil of Patroitism'
published in the last issue of
the Forester. This story took
the gold medal offered by the
Bottineau Courant last spring
to students of the School of
Forestry for short stories. We
are glad to note the good work
the young man is doing and
feel that this will encourage
him in his efforts to attain sue
cess in greater things.
Sunday school will be held at
the school house Sunday, Mar.
IL at 10: 80 a.. m. A new bible
class will be organized under
the direction of Mr.. Arveson

people of this vicinity will at
tend and help to make the class
very interesting. Glasses for the
smaller children are conducted
in both Norwegian and Eng
fish. Messrs. Gorder, Noun
and l.. b. Wall have charge of
the Norwegian catechism
classes and Miss Jacobs of the
primary English classes. It is
planned to hold Sunday school
regularly every other Sunday
from now on; and we would
like to see it prosper.
The Carbury band gave their
concert and basket social
Saturday evening in the assem-
bly, room of the school. The
local organization was surely
appreciated by the people of
this vicinity as was evidenc-
ed by an unusual large atten-
dance. The concert was very
good and the boys r deserv-
ing of every praise for the tx
cellent work rendered under
the leadership of ]. S. Ander-
son of Omemee. After the con-
cert a large number of baskets
were sold which brought un-
usual big prices. The proceeds
from the social and concert
netted the band a sum of over
$50. The young people enjoy
ed themselves playing games
and singing songs until a late
hour. This will not be the
