him to sit down and write a novelization
OF the serial. He did this, and enjoys the
distinction OF being the only author IN

two versions OF his own book. Any author

through such an experience and come out
unscathed has the profound respect OF the
entire author world.

Welcome Dance Was
Stirring Social Event

Thursday evening as per schedule
the home coming ball for Company G.
was held at the Armory. Promptly at
$50 the Haering orchestra started the
music which tickled the feet of old as
we'll as young, and soon the floor was
alive with the merry dancers. The
hall was artistically decorated in
the national colors due to the kindness
of the genial Herman Stern who once
more demonstrated his ability in the
line of hall decorating. Supper was
served by Manager Hamilton of the
Valley hotel, who did himself proud in
serving a fine supper to the largest
crowd ever taken care of in that ban
quet hall. With the best of music, a
hall beautifully decorated, a good sup
per and the spirit of the dancers ex-
ceptionally congenial, the party was
pronounced great success. The mu-
sic continued until the early hours of
the morning when every member Of G
Company as we'll as all who came out
to help the boys have good time were
satisfied. Thus ended another occas-
ion that will long be remembered by
the boys Of G. Company as we'll as by
the good folks of Valley City.

About the biggest bit of excitement

news and the spasmodic arrival of the
mail, was the trial trip of Ole Reiten's
motor sleigh Monday. The Harley
Davidson was mounted on a pair of
bobs with the drive-wheel taking the
place of one of the rear runners. Olaf
Hahlum managed the throttle and

by Kathryn driver, who also took
some mail to Litchville. Part of our
mail was taken around to Dickey,
hauled by team to Marion and has
been there for several days, but is ex.
pected here today.

young people numbering between 20
and Is gathered at the charming new
home of Mrs. Sam Mikkelson, South
Eighth avenue, for. the purpose of Or
ganizing club to be one of the many
organizations that help support the

Of promoting and supporting the work
of the church and the lesser aim of
giving the young people an opportun-
ity to get together for, good times, of
which there will be many, and to give
them something definite to do. Royal
Daughters" is the name selected and
the officers chosen we're as follows
President, Miss Mary L. Downs; vice
president, Miss Myrtle Jacobson; sec.
rotary and treasurer, Miss Bertha An.
derson. Pink and green were chosen
as the club colors and it was decided
that the meetings would be held the
first and third Thursday evening of
each month. A committee on flowers
was appointed to attend to the flowers
needed for the pulpit for each Sunday.
The club will be carried on in the ma.
ture of a sewing club and a ruling
was made that Only light refreshments
would be served, a fine of one dollar
being the penalty for those exceeding
the rule. After the close of the bust
ness session refreshments were serv
ed by the hostess, assisted by her
mother, Mrs. NJ. Larson, after which
few musical selections were enjoy
ed. The guests on departing pronounc
ed the meeting great success and
:. one of the most delightful in their ex
perience. All those present are
agreed that we owe Mrs. Mikkelson a
great many thanks for realizing our
needs and starting the Royal Daugh
ters." May they grow and prosper
and become of infinite good to their
church, community and state.
