Proposed plans whereby Masonry In

the twenty eighth annual communica-
ton Grand Lodge A. F. g. A. M. with
Acacia lodge No. to be held in Grand
Forks. Tuesday and Wednesday, June
10 and 20.
Other matters of Importance to come
before the body will be the question of
incorporation which was carried over
from last year and then there will be
the celebration Of the 200th anniver-
sary Of the founding of the grand
lodge of England. This grand COM
munication is expected to be an his
toric event in Mason circles of North
Dakota. Last year for some unaccount-
able reason Is lodges were represented.
This number is expected to be in
creased TO Is for this years work.
In connection with the grand lodge
session of the A. F. & A. M. will be
the convocation of the grand chapter
r. A. NJ. which opens Wednesday
evening at o'clock. The membership
of the Grand Forks chapter at this
time exceeds 5000. Then, too, the grand
chapter, o. E. S., will meet June %
and continue its sessions through until
the evening of June %. This year Mrs.
Mae PaIda is grand matron, and Wal
ter H. Murfin grand patron. During
the year five new chapters have been
instituted at Berthold, Portal, Am
brose, New England and Dunseith
There is a possibility of sixth being
organized at Plaza before the grand
chapter convenes. The new chapters
aggregate a membership of 140.
The twenty ninth grand command
cry conclave will meet with Wihaha
commandery No. at Jamestown, a
fitting tribute to the grand commander
r. E. Sir Herbert G. Proctor of this
commandery. ~
The officers of the grand lodge are:
| Alexander B. Taylor, of Fargo, grand
master: William ]. Reynolds of West
hope, deputy grand master; Henry G

This is a very painful and dangerous
disease. In almost every neighborhood
someone has died from it before
medicine could be obtained or a ply

have a bottle Of Chamberlain's Collie

as to be prepared for it. Mrs. Charles

LOAD ALL CARS
TEN PER CENT
over CAPACITY
Fargo Freight Agents AID
vised of Plans to Conserve
Traffic Facilities

Load all cars to 10 per cent in ex
cess of their marked capacity" Is the
request that will be made OF all Fargo
and northwest shippers in the future.
The request is embodied in a pamph-
let just issued by Harrison Fairfax,
chairman OF the special committee on
national defense, which Is being made
the basis for definite orders to every
railroad agent in the United States,
a copy of which was received in Fargo
today.
An increase OF two tons per
loaded car would be equivalent to
adding over 100000 cars to the
number available for public use,
says the pamphlet.
Urges Cooperation.
The cooperation of the railroad and
the shipper is urged in quicker termi-
nal handling, and more prompt loading
and unloading of freight. Shippers are
also urged to combine shipments
whenever possible to fill car to ca
pacity, and not to ship beyond their
ability to handle.
The average capacity of all cars
is 1877 tons, while the average load
per car, revenue freight, has not
averaged more than 1916 tons, fig
ures in the pamphlet show.
War Is Responsible.
"The European war;, says the
pamphlet, sis responsible for condi-
lions which have caused very large in
creases in traffic on American rail-
roads, whose capacities are now over
taxed, and they are unable to respond
promptly to all the demands made on
them.
IN other words. there is demand
for transportation that is not being
supplied, and it becomes the duty Of
this committee to suggest how the
present high efficiency Of American
railroads might be still further raised
