Society Neu-
Elks Offer Quarters To Fargo
Branch and Surgical Dressings

Wednesday will be moving day for
the Fargo Red Cross branch and the
surgical Dressings department Of
the same. Headquarters for the en-
tire local branch will hereafter be in
the Elks club rooms, on First avenue
north, and it is thought that having
the hospital garment sewing. knit
ting and surgical dressings work all
housed In one location will add
greatly to the convenience. An ad-
ditional reason for the move is that
the Fargo Y. NJ. c. A. Is greatly in
need, for class work, OF tho rooms
that have so far been serving as
headquarters for the Fargo branch.
The Surgical Dressings department
was established a few weeks ago In
the Waldorf hotel parlor.
1t is hoped to be all settled by next
Friday. The card room at the Elks
quarters will be given over TO the
Surgical Dressings work, and the
large hall where parties are held oc-
casionally by the lodge. viii be used
for the cutting. The workers are
delighted with the convenience and
space promised by their new quart
ers. According to the arrangement
just perfected the Elks will furnish
the hall, heated and lighted, Il being
possible for them to do so because
the buildings owners, Reineke u
McKone, renewed the lease OF the
building at the former rate when they
learned that the Elks contemplated
offering it to the Red Cross.
FARGO Branch Shipment.
The Cass Red Cross chapter re-
ceived Monday evening from the

Aids to Beauty!

4 on the stage It is the curly
headed actress who Is the best
= loved. And isn't ii so the world
over--curly, fluffy hair carries
with It the very spirit of youth
3 and beauty.
/ The hair should frame the
4 face, soften its defects and
4 bring out it's beauty. Only fluffy
curly hair can do this.
If you haven't naturally curly
4 hair, your druggist can supply
I you with a bottle Of Thistledown
4 at small cost. Moisten your hair
with ThistIedown before doing 1t
up on curriers' or pins. Braid the
I back hair snugly in two braids
after first moistening 1t well with
Thistledown. When you take II
down brush vigorously. The /
more you brush the more your !
hair will fluff out and seem to !
increase. 1t will seem as though
you had a magic brush.
This, girls, is the Thistledown
habit, the secret OF many beauti-
full heads of fuzzy, curly hair,

Must Treat Customers Right
Or Get Out of Business

Correspondence OF The Associated Press.)
Schauffhausen, Switzerland, May
30-A recent pronuciamento of the
Bavarian ministry of the interior re-
ceived here, though couched in polite
and fatherly language, contains a
threat to all food storekeepers that
unless they treat their customers ci-
Willy they will be debarred from con-
Quoting their business in the future
Countless complains about the arro-
gance Of the storekeepers, who are
variously described as having become
the lords Of creation" "autocrats"
and "dictators" are responsible for the
order.
The ministry's proclamation re-
minds all who sell food of any kind
that, because of the war and the
state of affairs it has brought with it,
they have become in a way public
servants. They are no longer purely
private individuals, but members of
the communal economic machine.
That being the case, continues the
order, each storekeeper must subordi-
nate his own interests to those of the
state. He is not allowed to ridicule
his patrons, ignore their wants, nor
be impolite to them.

Equalization Board Cuts Down the
Raises Made by Assessor Fitzgerald

None OF the big business houses,
stores, factories and corporations
boosted to dizzy figures by County
Assessor Fitzgerald have appeared be-
fore the County Board of Equaliza-
ton, but the majority of the individ-
uals whose taxes involve smaller
amounts who have protested have
been successful in obtaining satisfac-
tory reductions.
OF the approximately 25O cases
passed upon by the equalization board
since it began its sessions in only
a few instances have the county as
SCISSORS boosts been sustained.
Practically all of the protests made
thus far have involved amounts from
$50 to a few hundred dollars. The
board voted to accept the schedules
as returned, though in many cases
County Assessor Fitzgerald had dou-
bled and tripled them.
A working man who returned a
schedule setting forth one item as
automobile, $50" was raised by the
assessor to several hundred dollars.
He appeared to protest, taking par
ticular exception to inference that the
return on the car was too low.
"I'll tell you what I'll do" he said
Omaha daily bee., 1917-06-17

to the board, III you can sell that
so-called automobile for $50 for junk,
I'll eat it,"
His assessment was compromised
upon by the board. At the rate OF the
present board grinds, only small
per cent of the more than 5000 tax
payers receiving notices Of boosts,
which total millions, can be heard.
The law provides that the board
shall sit twenty days, beginning June
II.
Big business interests, known to be
preparing to fight to the finish the
wholesale increases made by the
county assessor, are expected to
swoop down upon the equalization
board next week.
Il do not see how it will be posi-
Bile to hear even a small per cent of
the protests on the thousands of no.
tees sent out in the remaining fifteen
days." said County Clerk Dewey, a
member Of the equalization board,
which, in addition to him, is COM
posed Of the county assessor and the
five county commissioners.
1t is taking as much as half hour
to hear protests on assessments OF
only few hundred dollars.

NO REPUBLIC FOR
BRITISH EMPIRE
Commonwealth of Nations is
the Idea Expressed by Gen
eral Smuts of Boer
War Fame.

Correspondence of The Associated Press)
London, May 30.-General Jan
Christian Smuts, who fought the
British in Nthe Boer war and con-
quered German East Africa for Great
Britain in this war, does not believe
in making republic out of the Brit
ish empire. He told 800 members of
Parliment this at dinner in his
honor the other night in the House
of Lords.
"You cannot" SHUTS said, make
republic of the British common
wealth of nations because you would
have to elect president, not only
here in these islands, but all over the
British empire, in India. and in the
dominions, a president who would be
representative of all these peoples;
and here | say you would be facing
an absolutely insolu' lie problem"
At this gathering General Smuts
broke bread beside Lord French, who
led the British forces against him in
the Boer war. During his speech he
gave little hitherto unrecorded his
tory of his struggle with the forces
OF the British general.
Lord French as Freight.
"On one occasion" said the general,
Il was surrounded by Lord French's
forces and was practically faced with
disaster. There was nothing left to
me but the most diligent scouting to
hnd way out. | did some scouting

he is required to sign again before he
can leave the hotel.
In certain sections of England
new rule has just been put into effect
which requires aliens to first present
themselves at police headquarters be-
fore they will be given a room in a
hotel. The police issue a permit en-
titling the holder to stay at the hotel.
A party of American business men
from London were required to do this
recently upon their arrival in Liver
pool. Their train brought them into
Liverpool around 3 a. nj They were
tired and hungry and the trip to the
police station consumed another hour.
But all went through with the red tape
good naturedly, realizing that to be al
lowed to travel at all in any of the bel
bgerent countries at this time is
somewhat OF a privilege.

AMERICANS STILL
UNDER POLICE RULE
Must Register in England Just
as They Did Before United
States Entered the
World War.

Correspondence OF The Associated Press.)
London, May 3l.-Many Americans
in London were surprised and disap-
pointed when they learned that, when
the United States entered the war,
they were not automatically relieved
OF the necessity of observing the Brit
lsh police regulations affecting aliens.
Ibis is especially true of the Ameri-
cans who have arrived here since the
early part of 1916. These must report
their movements to the authorities
just as all other aliens, whethe.. allies
or neutrals, are required to do.
There is considerable amount of
red tape involved in the police regu-
lations and, no sooner had the United
States thrown in its lot on the side of
the entente allies, than many Ameri-
cans got the impression that they
would be relieved of this wartime
necessity. When they found out that
their status in this respect remained
unchanged by the turn OF events many
OF them appealed to the United States
embassy and consulate for further in
formation They were told that there
was no indication of any change.
Must Be Identified.
Every American who has arrived
here since the early months of 1916
must have an identity book. Besides
name, nationality, date and signed
photograph, it must bear the sigma
lures and guarantees of two British
subjects, property owners, who have,
at the same time, seen the holder of
the book sign his name to it. Before
the book is received, signed photo
graph must be left at the police sta
ton. In some instances two months
elapses before the applicant is able to
obtain his book.
Permit to Sleep.
When an American moves from one
part OF the city to another he must re-
port to the police stations in both dis
tricts and have his book stamped by
the aliens officer. Much the same pro-
cedure is required when he goes on a
visit to another city. In every town
where he stays over hight he must re-
port to the police, giving all particu-
lars as to birth, nationality of self and
parents, description of physical fea-
lures, etc. At the hotel at which he
stays he must repeat all these same
details on large sheet of paper which

that we must rely upon for the future.
The first is our hereditary kingship. I
have seen some speculation recently
in the newspapers about the position
of kingship in this country, specula-
tions by people. who, | am sure, have
not thought of the wider issues at
stake.
THE theory of the constitution is
that the king is not your king, but the
king Of all of us, ruling over every
part of the empire; and if his place
should be taken by anybody else then
that somebody else will have to be
selected under a process which will
pass the wit of man to devise.
I'VE have kingship here which is
really not very different from a repub-
lie. | should not be surprised if the
time came when our royal princes,
instead of getting their consorts from
princelings in Europe, will seek their
consorts in the outlying portions of
the empire"
