The morning session Of the meet
ing of the Third District Federation
of Women's- clubs, Friday at Ray
was filled with reports which proved
very interesting to the delegates who
were present from all over the dis
trict.
Mrs. E. c. Carney of Williston, vice
president Of the district, reported four
new clubs federating, total of thirty
clubs, with membership of SOL, rep
resenting fourteen towns. The spe-
cial work of the Third istrict is the
fostering of the Students Loan Fund
for the Minot Normal. Three reasons
are given for this. First, it is work
all our own, as the Minot Normal
school belongs especially to this part
of the state. Second, there is no
work, more worthy or far reaching
in it's influence than the timely as
sistance of the ambitious young per-
son in getting an education. Third,
the need is great.
President Crane had said in let
ter after citing the cases of three
young people who had made use. Of
this loan offer, GAS the fund increas-
es in size and age such cases will be
multiplied continuously and as these
young people now receiving aid pay
back their loans, the fund will be in
creased by the interest. When the
loan of $4,000 will make the differ
ence between graduation, certificate,
a better job, a brighter future, and
the opposite, it is evident that it is a
splendid investment and benevolence.
i should like to see this fund grow to
such size that, coupled with our en-
ployment agency, we can assure any
ambitious young person in the north
west that he could get an education
at the State Normal school IF he but
prove himself worthy and could raise
sufficient funds to present himself at
the school," Mrs. Carney told of the
establishing of an official club paper
for North akota. She suggested a
year book be arranged for the dis
trict; the election of a parilamentar-
ian; that special interest be taken in
home gardening; that every assis-
tance be given the Red Cross, as a
patriotic duty; that all clubs who had
not already done so appoint at once
two members on the Social service
committee to assist their district
chairman of the Social and Industrial
Conditions department.
Mrs. Carney's report was follow
ed by the reports of the district Coun-
ty Chairmen as follows:
Burke-Mrs. George G. Keup, Co.
lumbus.
Divide Mrs. Guy Grove, Crosby.
McHenry-Mrs. C. o. Kinkenhagen,

Dr. E. Sauer Boston physician who has studied both in this country and in great European Medical Institutions says: AS I have said a hundred times over organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders. If people would only take Nuxated Iron when they feel weak or rundown, instead of dosing themselves with habit forming drugs, stimulants and alcoholic beverages, am convinced that in this way they could ward off disease, preventing it becoming organic in thousands of eases and thereby the lives of thousands might be saved who now die every year from pneumonia, grippe, kidney, liver, heart trouble and other danger ous maladies. The real and true cause which started their diseases was noth- ing more nor less than a weakened condition brought on by lack of iron in the blood.
 Not long ago man came to me who was nearly half d century old and asked me to give him d preliminary examination for life insurance. l was astonished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of 20 and as full of vigor vim and vitality as d young man; in fact a young man he really was notwithstanding his age. The secret, he said, was taking iron-nuX- ated iron had filled him with renewed life At 30 he was in bad health; at 46 he was careworn and nearly all in now at 50 after taking Nuxated Iron a miracle of vitality and his face beam ing with the buoyancy of youth.
 Iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change~fcod into living tissue. Without it no@ matter how much or what you eat your food mere Iy passes through you without doing you any good. You don't get the strength out of it, and as d conse- quence you become weak, pale and sickly- looking, just like d plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron.

Such aston ishing results have been reported from it's use both by doctors and laymen, that a number of physicians in various parts of the country have been asked to explain why they prescribe it so extensively, and why 1t apparently pro- duces so much better results than were obtained from the old forms of inor- ganic iron.
