NORTH DAKOTA MUST UTlLIZE ITS
WNCOAL SUPPLY; EDUCATORS TO
C0HOME AND MOBILIZE FOR WORK

North Dakota must utilize its own
coal supply during the coming fall
and winter. and Ignite coal should
De ordered at once for delivery in the
autumn or as soon at the railroads
OF the state can handle the ship
ments.
This was one Of the most important
statements brought out at the extra
session OF the sixteenth annual high
school conference which was held
this morning at the University Of
North Dakota. President Frank l..
Mcvey or the university presided and
made a clear statement to the SUPER
intendents and teachers just what will
De necessary for the schools Of the
state to do in serving the best inter-
ests OF the state and the nation in the
present crisis.
Big Task Before State.
The great car shortage caused by
the removal of freight boats from the
!akes, and the unusual demands for
transportation made on the railroads
by The government makes it neces-
sary for North Dakota, as we'll as ev-
cry other state Of the union, to take
care OF Its own coal supply. A repre-
sentative of the federal bureau of
mines made the situation clear to the
mead OF the school Of mines at the
university. There Is nj danger Of q
a shortage in North Dakota. nor
Is there m need to anticipate great
hardship In the change from the an
thracite or the bituminous Goals to
the Ignite coal which is found in vast
abundance in the western part Of the
state. Ignite coal is found in North
Dakota in quantities sufficient to sup
ply this state for hundreds Of years
yet to come. and it Is Of such a quail
ity as to be of great value for either
cooking or heating purposes.
Superintendent to Begin Work,
Quiet organization will be the meth
cd of handling this and all the other
big problems that will confront the

persons liable f,xed by the

100000 persons liable fixed by the
nsu estimate.
There will be some delay also in
hearing from men absent from their
homes who will register by mail. The
ofacials Of every state and town, how
ever. have been authorized to issue
cards to such men in their communi-
ties in. order to avoid the delay Of ap-
plication to home precincts, the for
warding of registration blanks and
their return. 1t Is expected hotels and
other public places n big cities will
be made distribution points for cards
of this character.
Artillery Needed in Europe.
All cavalry units of the National
Guard will be drafted dismounted. 1t
is regarded as probable that a number
of the organizations will be offered an
opportunity to be converted into field
artillery forces. rs the gun divisions
must be supplemented without delay.
The National Guard is far below its
proper quota of artillery and even the
regular proportion Of guns per regi-
ment must be increased because of the
nature Of the fighting in Europe.

What Corbett Thinks of Stone

"Gentleman' Jim Corbett says about. Fred Stone, the actor, in the Ameri.
 can Magazine.
 If Fred Stone had decided to make the ring his vocation in life, rather than the stage. he would undoubtediy have been champion middleweight fighter. There is nothing of the ana teur about his boxing. He and have, had many a lively bout together, and he always kept me on the jump. He is quick as flash of lightning, re- markedly clever, and possesses a knowledge of boxing that puts him in. the professional class. Incidentally, I might remark that he has wallop in. each hand.
 "For two years Fred and I used to box together constantly, and whenever needed anyone who was handy with the gloves, l always sent for Stone, and he responded with alacffty. When T fought Kid Mccoy. Fred was with me in the ring and was great incen :. tive. because I knew he wanted me to win. The reason Stone was a good boxer was due to the fact that he loved the sport and went in for it with the same determination and zest that brought him fame before the foot lights Everything that Fred Stons does he does well, and even today he is such clever boxer that if he put son the gloves with professional mid < dlcwei gl1t yfighter he would give him \ lively run for his money

of the triumph of democracy than the world has ever known.
 Every allied nation has announced that it is fighting for democracy, and our own president has declared that We are fighting for democracy, for the right of those who submit to au- | thority to have voice in their own gov ernment. New Russia has answered the call; Great Britain has pledged full suf frage for women, and the measure has already passed the House of Commons by the enormous majority of I to l. Canada, too, has responded with five newly enfranchised provinces; France IS waiting only to drive the foe from her soil to give her women political liberty.
 Such an array of victories gives us faith to believe that our own government will soon follow the example of other al
 lied nations and will also pledge votes to it's women citizens as an earnest of it's sincerity that in truth we do fight for democracy.
 This is our first national conven- tion since our country entered the war We are faced with new problems and new issues, and the nation is realizing its dependence upon women as never be- fore. 1t must Je made to realize also that, willing as women are now serv- ing. they can serve still more efficiently when they shall have received the full measure of citizenship. These facts must be urged upon Congress, and our gov ernment must be convinced that the time has come for the enfranchise- ment of women, by means of an amend ment to the federal constitution.
 Men and women who believe that the great question of world democracy in cludes government of the people, by the people, and for the people in our coun- try, are invited to attend our convention and counsel with us on ways and means to attain this object at the earliest pos sble moment

MoNsrER sUFFRAcE BAZAAR

MONSTER SUFFRAGE BAZAAR
 Plans for the suffrage bazar, laid all through the summer. are rapidly ma turing. The date has been set by Mrs. Jacobs, the chairman, for Saturday, December 1, and the week following thereafter. The various chairmen of booths, fired with entuhiasm, report great progress. Surprises, such as a fortune teller, secured by Mrs. Jack Bowron, Pandora box, mysterious grab bag for the children, guarded over by Mrs. B. A. Pepperman, and a more than wonderful movie show of stars presided over by Mrs. Morris Marx, fill the air. But the spirit of gayety will be tempered with a note of serious helpfulness and constructive efficiency foreign to all other bazars.
 The war claims suffrage for it's own handmaiden even at Christmas time, and the chief offerings of the bazar will be for our soldier boys and to help our allies. The soldier shop will be an opportunity to provide for brothers, husbands and friends in training to go to France. Besides warm and skill fully made knitted garments and regu- lation comfort kits. many unique sol dier garments will be shown, and sixth bacco done up the suffrage way-that ys for use.
 The conservation of food in the suf :. rage pantry conducted by Mrs IT. E.. Pierce and assisted by Mrs. She'll and Mrs. Long. the suffrage housekeeper, will be such as to astonish even Hoover
 The next generation of voters, male and female, will be lined up and judged in the better babies contest held un-s der Mrs. Angus Taylor's efficient di- rection, assisted by several doctors and nurses. All babies up to the age of years are hereby urged to regis-s ter at once. If they will get their mothers to call Mrs. Taylor and give their names, paying at the same time the small entrance fee Of 50 cents, they need exert their majesties no further. but hasten to get fat and strong that they may win one of the six enchant- ing prizes on Judgment Day"-De- cember 1, 1917.

 WAR CALL ITO SUFFRAG1SrS
 Liberty Sunday-The liberty loan drive over and won and day to pause before storming the next line trenches. Work ing for suffrage makes better patriots ot us all and working for the war makes us the more earnest suffragists that part of the democracy for which we are fighting may find it's way to the govern Ing forces of the United States. The yearning for liberty and democracy has long been our cloud by day and pillar of fire by night Woodrow Wilson has placed these glorious words on every lip. That they be more than words for the world we are willing to give our gold and our hearts and our hearts blood IS 1t strange that suffragists in all the ardency of their patriotism should ask for democracy at home as we'll as lover thereg' The call to the forty ninth an nual convention of the National Amer ican Woman Suffrage association has come. It is a war call to all suffragists.
 The call for the convention reads as follows:
 Since last we met, the all-engulfing world war has drawn our country into its maelstrom, and the ominous clouds rest over the earth, obscuring the vision and expressing mankind Yet out cf the confusion and chaos of strife. there has developed a stronger promise
