GREAT AUTO RACES, FARGO, July 1878
The Worlds Fastest Cars and Most Daring Drivers on interstate
Pair Program.

This speed program will include
Wild Bill Endicott, George Clark,
Louis LeCocq, Ray Lampktn, and
many other we'll known speed mer-
chants driving some of the highest
power and fastest dirt track cars in
the world, and with the splendid con-
dftion Of the Fargo track, there should
be no question about the breaking of
the North Dakota state records. These
greatest of all speed kings and maniac
racing drivers will start burning holes
in the very atmosphere with espe-
ctally constructed racing automobiles
up to 300 horse power.
Tons of calcium chloride will be
showered upon the track, placing It in
perfect condition for these great speed
drivers, and 1t Is almost a foregone
conclusion that many records will be
shattered when the checkered flag 10
waved for the last time.

Dear Sir:
The final totals Of the Liberty Loan subscription in the Ninth FEEDER
al Reserve District have just been obtained. The subscription is $70c
2231O which, in view Of the extent Of the district and the fact that
it is largely agricultural. which has necessitated an immense amount
OF advertising and organization work is very satisfactory, and repre-
sents a response which is in keeping with the importance and dignity
of those states.
In behalf of this committee, which has been acting under the in
stuctions Of the Secretary of the Treasury, l beg to express our sin
cere thanks for the donation Of advertising space which you have
made, amounting to LOB inches and to acknowledge your contribution
of the cost of the same amounting to 5000 and as we'll the amount of
reading space that you have devoted to this subject. Your action was
Of material assistance in the fotation of the loan and l want to thank
you for the interest and practical patriotism which prompted it. In
carrying information to the rural districts and towns no part Of our
work has been more effective than that handled by the newspapers in
their display advertising, their editorials and their news comments.
Inc Committee appreciates the assistance received and is of the
opinion that without this help it would have been extremely difficult
in view Of the great area of territory under it's charge, to have brought
adequate information to people of the district in time to permit them
to make their response before the close of the acmpaign.
Again expressing our appreciation Of your patriotic service,
s Very truly yours,
. CENTRAL LIBERTY LOAN COMMITTEE, ........

THINK 1T OVER
Business is thin skinned. She has to be invited to
come--and encouraged to stay.
Right now Business is unduly sensitive. So many
people have deliberately shut their door in her face--so
many of our business men have given her the icy stare
and cold shoulder--that she is having some difficulty in
finding a place to hang her hat.
Now then--lets get down to brass tacks. Isn't it a
fact that success breeds further success? Isn't it a fact
that a diamond in a mans shirt instantly gives YOU the
idea that his pockets are lined with long, green bills?
Then--if Business is not roostine on your hall tree
whose fault is it? Are o doing your part in cult
waiting her acquaintance--in making her welcome? Are

If you are not doing this, you have no cause to put
up a howl if people do not buy. They naturally think
you are having trouble of your ownn-and everybody flees
trouble.
Get out into the highways and byways, Man,-put
up your single where all the world can see. them
know you have faith in your country--your countrymen--
your product--your BUSINESS. ADVERTISE IT.

The Chautauqua is now drawing TO a close after n Of the most guc
cessful sessions in many years. The program has been a good and the
attendance has been very large during the whole session. Those who thought
that Chautauqua was a dead one, have another guess coming. This ss
zion has brought Thousands of people To Devils Lake, and the result has beer
that every merchant in the city, a well as every other place Of business

BADEN-PoWELL
SUMS UP WAR
ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
London. Aug 15.-Leutenant Cen
eral Sir Robert S. s. Baden-Powen IN
a statement on the opening OF the
fourth year Of the war, sums UP the
lessons which the war has thus far
taught as follows:
Tactical: Strategy, consisting as II
does Of principles. remains but little
altered; but tactics. or the methoos IN
the fighting field. have been strangely
twisted through the use OF high sxplo-
sives, mechanical transport, machine
fighting overhead and under water, and
by the vast numbers Of men employed
Scientific: In the field have been
devised new explosives. poison gases,
curative drugs, and many ingenious
devices for killing or for saving men
Industrial: State control has been
experimental with: intensive work
has been introduced. and new indus
tries. including Standardization in ship
building and aeroplane manufacture
as well as the home supply OF oversee
products and Of many things hitherto
made in Germany.
Social: Class distinctions have
largely disappeared; work is done for
orks sake: reforms long used in the
DRY for political cloaks are becoming
practical reality.
Political: The exaggerated value Of
party politics and the inefficiency Of
our politicians at home and our diplo-
mats abroad have all been shown.
Imperial What some were pleased
70 look upon as British Colonies are
now recognized as great self-contained
nations actuated by common tie and
common aim. whose strength is in
their freedom.
'International: Communion with
our allies in fighting for a high IDEAL
has brought us into closer touch and
mutual sympathy than any mere com
nercial alliance could have done.
Domestic: The war has discovered
the splendid courage and sense Of duty
that animates our race throughout.
while the women by rising 10 the occa-
sion have put themselves upon new
and higher plane.
Educational and Religious The
need Of new methods and new stand
ards to meet the exigencies Of the fu-
ture has been more than plainly
shown"
