CITY COUNCIL

The city dads held forth last
Monday evening, with Mayor Hab-
erstrOh in the chair. This was the
first meeting for several weeks, ow-
ing to illness and absence from the
city of one or more members.
After the usual grist of bills were
passed upon. Town Clerk Demaray
read a communication from the
State Public Utilities commission,
calling attention to the new rules
and regulations for municipal wa
ter and light plants, and it i'm
pressed those within hearing that
municipally-owned water and light
plants were becoming an expensive
luxury.
The latest rule promulgated by
the Utilities commission is to CON-
pel all municipal plants to stand
ardize" their meters, which means
that consumers must have two sets
of meters-one to send to Denver to
be tested" and the other to keep
tab on the amount of water or
light used. According to Supt.
Fuller, this would entail consider
able additional expense to each
consumer, as we would have to pay
for digging up the old meter and
installing second one.
The Utilities commission has set
March 18th as the day to hear from
the Holly plant, when Clerk Dema-
ray and Electrician Fuller will pro-
badly be in attendance and submit
an endless array of water and light
data.
Clerk Demaray then read the de
lnQuent list of property owners
on sewer districts and 2, the town
holding tax titles to the number
of 165, since 1918. The Sam Porter
residence is among the list.
There being no further business
the meeting adjourned.

NOW IN
READINESS FOR FAIR

The Marshall County Fair officers
are busy getting things in shape for the
biggest and best fair ever held in this
section Of the valley. The grounds and
buildings are being put in shape for the
big event and men are working every
day leveling the race track for the
races.
Secretary Frank says that there will
be more entries in. the live stock de-
partment than at any previous fair.
Farmers from all over the county are
daily reserving stalls for their cattle
and horses. This indicates that the
farmers are interested in the fair as a
stock show. 8
The farmers races and the mule race
will be events Of special worth. A num-
her of entries have been received and
the fair visitor will no doubt have an
opportunity to enjoy some real old
fashioned farmers race.
Most of the ground concessions have
been taken and by the opening day of
the fair it is expected every one will be
sold. This alone is an indication of the
large attendance which is expected. {.
The Hawaiian singers and dancers
are already in the city, coming from
Canada, where they have had a num-
ber Of engagements. Their appearance
at the Marshall County Fair will be
the first engagement in the United
States since their return from Canada.
The materials have arrived for the
fireworks display. These displays will
be the most gorgeous of any shown in
the valley.
Come to the Marshall County Fair.
Don't forget the dates, July 3rd, 4th

At present the market price for
old iron is $3.50 per ton and a large
number of people are taking ad-
vantage of the high prices and are
selling all the iron that they can
secure. Several small boys in town
have made neat sums of spending
money for the Fourth Of July in
this way. Several car loads have
been shipped from here and ship
ments will continue until nearly all
the old iron In the community has
been collected. Shipments are be-
ing made from every shipping
point In the county. Old mowers,
binders and other farm machinery
that for years have adorned farm
yards and fence corners are now
turned into ready cash.

our CROPS And
The WEATHER

Showers fell in scattered localities
thruout the county on Saturday and
Sunday afternoons. Good summer
weather prevails and grain is growing
nicely. While the stand of grain is
not as heavy as usual, the chances are
that the heads will fill well and that
the quality will be excellent. Those
who have travelled about considerably
say that crops in this locality are the
best they have seen in the northwest.
The weather from now on, however,
will to large extent determine what
the, crops will finally be.

Report of w. C. T. U. Convention.

The twenty-ninth annual convention
of the fourteenth district of the Mime
sofa w. G. T. U. was held at Thief Ri
yer Falls on Tuesday and Wednesday
of last week.
Although the attendance was not as
large as was expected, there was good
deal of enthusiasm showed at the diff
erent meetings. The state president Of
the w. G. T. u, Miss Rosette Hendrix,
was present and gave number of in
teresting talks along the lines of tenn
perance and Red Cross work. She ad-
weed us most earnestly, to get in line
for Red Cross work.
Tuesday evening an address of well
come was given in behalf of the clergy,
by Rev. Barrackman. Addresses of
welcome were also given by Mayor
Gambell in behalf Of the city and Mrs.
Pritchard in behalf of the Thief River
Union. Mrs. E. M. Mitchell, of Warren,
responded to the hearty words Of well
come. A mixed quartette sang beau
tiful selection, after which Miss Hen
dirk gave very interesting talk. Her
subject was Munitions of War; She
depl0red the fact that our government
is allowing so many millions of bushels
of grain go to waste, by making it into
Intoxicating liquors, to unfit our people
for the best service to their country.
She said, it seemed very inconsistent
that housewives are being urged to save
the little food that goes to waste in the
ordinary kitchen and the little child
rem are urged to add their bit by rails
ing gardens. She also said, ..'What does
this amount to compared to the great
quantity Of grain that is made into
liquor every year." Her talk was log
ical and sensible from every point Of
view.
Wednesday morning, the election OF
officers took place. All the old officers
were reelected with the exception OF
Mrs. G. Sandberg, Of Warren, who re.
signed and Mrs. B. Levins, Of Crook.
ston, was elected as her successor.
