WILMINGTON, Oct. IS - Wash ington officials have received the British inquiry as to the American stand on the diver warfare placed Into aeration by the Teutons.

since it was created and he therefore
knows the needs of the people Of
western North Dakota.
Mr.. Simon was born on a farm in
Swift County, near Benson, Mimi,
forty years ago. He was brought up
on the farm and remained with his
parents until about twenty-five years
old. He obtained his education in the
country schools and the Benson high
school. After graduating he taught
school for six years during the winter
months and worked on the farm at
home during the summer time.
In 1902, he came to North Dakota
and took up a homestead in Ward
county, about seven miles northeast
Of White Earth in what is now Noun
trail county. In the spring of 1908
he received an appointment as rail-
way mail clerk on the Great Northern
and worked between Grand Forks, N.
D., and Havre, Mont, for about two
years. He was then transferred to
ST. Paul and worked on the Great
Northern out of that city to Lari-
more, and later to Devils Lake, N. D.
During this time he retained his resi-

Seven Of the advanced German
students have organized a club, which
meets every other week at the home
Of some member for a social time
and to spend an evening in German

president; Esther Ayers, secretary;
Melba Garwick, treasurer; Miss Hille-
sheim, director. The other members
are Blanche Flanagan, Marian Coffin
and Agnes Moe.
The regular annual meeting of the

constitution was read by Mr.. Orr.
The following officers were chosen
for the coming year: Marian Coffin,
president; Monte McCutchan, vice
president Miss Grant, corresponding

mate. These men were here for the
purpose of spying out the land and
Of measuring future possibilities.
Representing as they do a corpora
ton Of two million dollars and return
ing to report the issues as they found
them, they spoke quite openly of their
surprise and hopefulness for Dickin-
sons future.
These visitors, however, were not
representing any great commercial, or
financial scheme, but rather the religi-
Gus and moral conditions of the city
and more especially Of the upbuilding
Of Dickinson as a religious center.
1t is well known that the f%orerunner
of all the Congregational churches
west of Dickinson to the Montana line
and even over into Wibaux, Mont,
is the Dickinson church. Then too,
those south and north are cared for
by a superintendent in the city, hence
there was great interest in the visit
of these men.
DR.. ]. P. Sanderson is the secretary
of the organization that has helped
build hundreds Of churches, and Chas.
H. Baker is the treasurer of the same
organization, and who controls the
two million dollars.
Their visit has stirred the dry bones
Of Congregationalism and which will
be seer at no distant day in a move
ment that will be among the greatest
in church circles for a decade.-Con-

he went to Tioga, N. D., and prac-
ticed law for several months with
T. f. Burns.
Mr.. Simon came to New England
in the fall of 1909 and engaged in the
practice of law. He has built up an
excellent practice and has also found
time for other work. For three years
he was a member of the village coun-
Gil. Besides his law practice, he has
engaged in farming, taking his
chances with thu other farmers in
both the fat and the lean years. In
1915 he was secretary Of the board of
directors of the Farmers Equity Ex-
change of New England.
If it is for good roads, better fire
protection, better sewer systems, bet
ter schools or any movement for the
good of the community, Mr.. Simon
pulls off his coat and works with the
best of them. He is energetic, ag-
gressive and progressive and can
truly represent the people of his dis

of North Dakota.-Polit:cal adv.

Dyke, their last years monitor, with
a beautiful lavalliere, to show their
appreciation of her work with them.
The necklace was set with an anne
thyst surrounded by pearls. Esther's
speech, which was clever and unique,
was splendidly given. In a few
hearty, well chosen words, Miss Van
Dyke thanked the class for their gift.
