Devils Lake, Jan. 22.-One-
tenth of the Indians of the Fort

200 from the Turtle Mountains,
are affected with trachoma, the
dreaded eye disease, which if
not treated in time, results in
blindness.
This information is given out
by DR.. C. ]. McGurren of this
city, secretary of the state
board of health.
According to reports received
at the secretary's office a pecu-
liar situation exists in Dunn
county, where the disease is
found in families that refuse
medical treatment. So far as
can be learned there is no law
forcing a citizen to accept and
pay for medical treatment un-
less he so desires.

Coming to Grand Forks in

Seven years later he was

that enabled the university to

financial handicaps, and it was
his loyalty that kept the doors
Of the institution open. Pro
fessor Merrifield saw the en-

came president, to nearly 1000
when he retired. Advices re-
cieved today indicate that

PRESS MEETING
TO BE INVITED
Commercial Club Of boiilpoau q Ex.
Tend Iavliailea 10 n. D.P.A
For Summer Meet.

The North Dakota Press as
sociation will be invited by the
Bottineau Commercial club to
hold it's summer meeting at
Lake Metigoshe, according to
an unanimous decision of the
club at a special meeting held
Tuesday evening.
The editorial association is
holding it's annual winter meet
ing in Grand Forks the last
two days of this week, at which
time the invitation will be pre-
sented on behalf Of the club by
Editor Rishoff of The Courant.
IF possible to land this con-
vention for Lake Metigoshe it
will be the biggest publicity
boost this delightful summer
resort has ever had or possibly
could get. While there is al
ways struggle among the
leading cities of the state to
get this convention, local peo-
pie have great hopes of being
able to bring it here. The
many summer attractions at
Lake Metigoshe would make
it an ideal place for holding an
outing of this kind, and it is
proposed to make the members
of the association see it in this
light, if possible.
No definite plan of entertain
ment has been decided upon,
but this will Immediately be
taken up if the convention is
secured.
