HUNTING SEASON
OPENED SUNDAY
Thouands of Hunters in the Field
Sunday Shooting Legal-Two Lads
Bag 26 Mud Hens.

The hunting season opened Sunday,
Sept 16, with almost as many hunt
ers as birds in the field. The evening
before scores Of autos left for the
lakes southwest of the city and bright
and early the following morning hun
dredS of more cars loaded with sports
men left early. The day was ideal
for the sport and great loads of ducks
and chickens were brot back. Nearly
everybody in Minot has been dining
Oh roast ducks this week. The birds
are large and fat and even better
than last year. Many fine mallards,
canvas back and teal ducks grew right
in this vicinity. These will last until
the northern flight comes down some
weeks later.
Not an accident was reported this
year, which is rather unusual. The
grouse are little scarce, altho hunt
ers with dogs who had previously To-
Gated the birds, got the limit of five on
chickens in a little while. Many of
the hunters shot the limit on ducks,
which is fifteen, early in the day and
returned to the city early.
There was some question as to
whether Sunday hunting was legal or
not, so some fellow down in Cass
county shot crow, was arrested and
a test case made of it. The Supreme
court decided the day before the hunt
ing season opened that Sunday hunt
ing is lawful.
A good yarn is told on a couple of
lads from the Minot Grocery Co., who
were hunting in the lakes southwest
Of brady. They went we'll supplied
with ammunition and Waders and 60
ing out into a big slough, rounded up
what they supposed to be some rather
tame ducks. They shot 26 of them,
carried them laboriously to shore and
were told by some other hunters that
they had shot some rare northern
ducks. Later in the day, they learned
that they had bagged mud hens.

such an arrangement is possible. The
preliminary events were highly enjoy
able and were an evenings entertain
ment II themselves. Knox of Co. ID did
some clever FOOT work and Private
Ben Hall enlivened the occasion by rem
dering a song composed by himself
which from the reception accorded
the authors initial bid for honOrs as
a composer, we predict his effort will
meet with public favor and become a
rival Of Tipperary before the end Of
the war. Racine and Henkel and Mich
OILS and Calikins served up two fast
four round bouts greatly to the amuse-
ment of the crowd. In the wrestling
bout between Nettleton of Co. ID and
Young Cox, the former secured two
falls IN short order. Nettleton had
the advantage of his opponent in size
and also in the fact that he was in
condition, whereas Cox had not been
on the mat prior to Monday night for
a period Of eight years. Despite this
handicap Cox showed that he was a
clever little wrestler with a bunch of
clever tricks up his sleeve

The Jewish New Years was cele-
brated in this city in a fitting and I'M
usually impressive manner. The hOl-
idays began Sunday night and did not
end until Tuesday evening. A number
of services were held at the Jewish
Synagogue, all of them being in
charge OF the Minot Rabbi, Rev. Di-
mond. The Rabbi is forceful speak
er and his words will long be remem-
bered by those present.
Among the out-of-town Jewish peo-
pie attending the services were the
following: julius Sgutt and Mrs. S.

The MinOt Jewish stores were clos
ed during the holidays.
Yom kippur, the Day Of Atonement,
the most sacred day of the entire
year, will be celebrated in this city
on Sept. 26 and again the Jewish
stores will be closed on that day.
The new year is 567S in the He,
braic calendar and begins on the first
day of the seventh month, Tishri, the
month that is held to be OF great i'm,
portance, as the festival of the New
I Year the fast of Yom Kippur, or Day
Succoth, or Tabernacles, the harvest
feast, all occur during that month.
The festival of Rosh a-Shannah
which literally translated means
Head Of the Year" is considered OF
great Importance and is generally OBJ
served by the Jewish community. The
orthodox Jews celebrate the festival
for two days, the first and second of
I Tishri both being regarded equally
as holy days of strict observance, dur
ing which the abstenton from bust
ness and work of every nature is
strictly enjoined. except in cases OF
great emergency. and such works OF
absolute necessity or charity as can
not be deferred until the end of the
festival. Attendance at the religious
services at the synagogue is also
strictly enjoined and The synagogues Of
the orthodox Jews are filled with wor
shippers during the festival.
The ten days intervening between
ROsh ha-Shanah and the solemn fas
day, Yom Kippur, or Day Of Atone
ment, which begins at sunset on the
evening Of Sept. 25, and continues fo1
twenty-four hours, are known as the
Ten Days of Repentance They arr
deemed Of special Importance by thu
orthodox Jews, and are devoted tt
prayer and acts of penitence in prep
aration for and leading up to the fas
of Yom Kippur, which is regarded b.
observant Jews as the most sacret
day in the year and the most impor
tant of all observances in the Hebrai
calendar. 1t is devoted to fasting ant
praying, when after a confession O
the sins Of the last year, Divine for
giveness for all transgressions is i'm

Fairbanks Here on Annual Visit.

4. A. FalrbankS arrived rom Ana
mosa, Ia, to look after his farming in
terests near Lansford. The Indepen-
dent enjoyed good visit with him
Saturday. Mr.. Fairbanks owns a fine
farm near Anamosa and keeps many
stands of bees. He usually takes
away seven tons of honey a year, but
this year the honey crop was almost a
failure. Mr.. Fairbanks does not make
much money from his honey, because
he gives so much Of it away. Mr.
Fairbanks says that Iowas corn crop
will mature Land in his vicinity sells
at from 5000 to $3.50 an acre and
many Of them rent for $12 cash rent
per acre. Iowa farmers grew consid-
cradle wheat this year, some fields
going around 45 bushels per acre.
Mr.. Fairbanks likes North Dakota
where he resided for a good many
years and he always looks forward to
his annual visit here, with pleasure.

Gentlemen Of the Congress:

Gentlemen OF the Congress:
Eight months have elapsed since
last had the honor OF addressing you,
They have been months crowded with
events OF immense and grave signifi-
cance for us l shall not undertake 10
recall or even TO summarize those
events.
The particulars Of the part We have
PLAYED In them Will he laid before you
in the reports of the executive depart
ments. / shall discuss only our present
outlook upon these vast affairs. our
present duties and the immediate
means OF accomplishing the objects we
shall hold always in view.
shall not go back 10 debate the
cause OF the war. The intolerable
wrongs done and planned against us
by the sinister masters OF Germany
have long since become too grossly
obvious and odious TO every true
American TO need TO be rehearsed.
But ] shall ask you 10 consider again
and with a very grave scrutiny our
objcctives and the measures by which
we mean TO attain them; for the pur-
pose OF discussion here in this place is
action and our action must move
straight towards definite ends.
Our object is. Of course TO win the
war and we shall not slackeu or suf-
fer ourselves TO be diverted until IL is
won. But IL is worth while asking
and answering the question when shall
we consider the war won?
From one point Of view II Is not
necessary TO broach this fundamental
matter. ! do not doubt that the Amer,
lean people know what the war il
about and what sort OF an outcome
they will regard as a realization OF
their purpose in IL.
Nation United.
As a nation we are united in spirit
and intention. ! pay little heed to
those who tell me otherwise. hear
the voices OF dissent-who does not?
hear the criticism and the clamor
OF the noisily thotless and the trouble
some. l also see men here and there

against the calm. indomitable power
OF the nation. hear men debate
peace who understand neither its ma

tain II with upliftcd eyes and unbrokcn
spirits. but 1 know that none of these
speaks for the nation. They do not
touch the heart OF anything. They
may safely be left to strut their uneasy
hour and be forgotten.
/ But from another point OF view ]
| believe that II Is necessary TO say
/ plainly what we here at the seat OF
action consider the war TO be for and
what part We mean TO play In the
settlement Of its searching issues We
are the spokesmen OF the American
people and they have a right TO know
whether their purpose is ours. They
desire peace by the overcoming OF evil,
by the defeat once for all OF the sinis-
ter forces that interrupt peace and
render II impossible ana they wish to
know how closely our thot runs with
theirs and what action we propose.
They are impatient with those who
desire peace by any sort OF compro-
mise-deeply and Indignantly impa-
iient-but they will be equally impa-
tieut with us II we do not make IT
plain TO them what our detectives are
and what we are planning for in seek
ing TO make conquest Of peace by
arms.

BEWARE OF SPIES,
IS Warming SENT
ABROAD BY NAVY

fleets, navy yards, and shore stations
to be on their guard against German
spies.
Thousands of card boards contain.
ing printed warning OF enemy spy
activity were sent out by the de-
partment to be posted on ships and
in yards.
Beware of SPIES" the men are
warned. The following "don'ts" are
included in the official warning:
Don't talk about what you have
done or are going to do. The enemy
has ears everywhere.
Don't discuss naval affairs or the
movement of ships or cargoes with
strangers or foreigners.
Don't trust anyone you do not
know. Enemy spies at home and
abroad will try to draw you into ar
guments and entrap you into telling
them about the movements OF ships
their cargoes, the courses steered and
the steps taken to defend our ships
Don't forget to report at once
any person who tries to get infor-
nation from you or from anyone
else in your hearing.
Dop't forget that your want OF
care may help the enemy, and lead
to the loss of American ships and the
deaths of their crews
Secrecy means safety"
The warning sent to men Of the
naval service was modelled after pos
ters distributed in France and Eng
