UNIVERSITY GIVES RESOURCES
AND INFORMATION TO PUBLIC

One Of the departments of extension
service at the university Of North Da
kota is the department of general in
formation. This branch of the work
is handled by the bureau of public in.
formation in cooperation with the Ii
brary and other departments of the
university.
Inquiries of the most varied types
are received. They range from ques.
lions relative to the practical every
day life Of the state to questions Of a
purely theoretical nature. From time
to time in years past the university
has received letters asking for infor.
nation. These letters have been an.
sWered as we'll as possible by the dc.
partments which seemed to be mos.
concerned. Now inquiries of this sort
are turned over to the one office d.
rectly. The aim of the bureau, as I'll
other extension activities, is to bring
the opportunities and resources of the
university to the people of the state
wherever possible. Wherever it IS
able to suggest plans or methods in
the home, in city government, in the
schools or in any other field, it is glad
to be of service. 1t stands ready to
answer any reasonable inquiry so far
as it's facilities permit.

Had Cold Dayfor Hike;
Face and Hands Frozen

Sanborn Enterprise: iodine" John
son, as he is sometimes called, be-
cause Of his penchant for imbibing
that mixture and other drugs, walked
from Valley City to Sanborn last
Thursday, one of the coolest and
stormiest days of the season up to that
time. When he reached this place. a
distance of a dozen miles or more, he
was well-nigh exhausted and severely
frozen, his hands and face, especially,
being badly frost bitten. A deputy
sheriff came up from the county seat
and returned him to Valley City. We
understand he was taken before the
insanity board for examination, which
inquiry was continued for further in
vestigation. Johnson has been a char
acter about town for several years,
working as carpenter when he first
came. OF late he has shown indica.
lions of being a dope fiend and has
worked only as the spirit moved him.
On former occasion he was examin-
ed as to his sanity and discharged. He
had no money in his possession when
he was taken in charge by Marshall
Kyrk last week. Johnson is a harm
less fellow and one can but pity him
and hope that he may be taken care Of
by proper authorities.

examination free, except the expense
of treatment when desired.
According to his method of treat.
ment he does not operate for chronic
appendicitis, gall stones, ulcers of
stomach, tonsils or adenoids.
He has to his credit many wonder
full results in diseases of the stomach,
liver, bowels, blood, skin, nerves,
heart, kidney, bladder, bedwetting,
catarrh, weak lungs, rheumatism,
