VALUABLE WORK
Is POINTED OUT
Demands on Institution
Have Grown, Necessi-
tating More Space

Announcement Is made today that
the board of trustees Of the Glad
Tidings Mission, a prominent in
stitution of Fargo, have decided to
put on a campaign to raise $4,000,
with which to pay off the mortgage
against the building and add anoth-
er story thereto. The dates of the
campaign are Sept. 4, and 6. The
work OF the Mission, which is To-
Gated on lower Front street, has
grown beyond the expectations Of
all in its relief department, and its
present facilities have become in
adequate to care for those who
either go of their own accord, or
who are sent to the Mission for aid.
This institution is doing an in
valuable work along the lines Of
practical Christianity among the
a Sunday school which has long
school for the boys and girls who
are denied other opportunities.
From this Sunday school many have
gone out into the world and are do
ing q worthy share in it's work.
It Is hoped that the general pub
lie will lend its aid, large or small,
in this campaign, and anyone wish
ing to know more of it's details. or
to assist in the team work planned,
is asked to call either e. c. Wat
kins, president and treasurer Of the
board, or Rev. o. e. McCracken,
secretary of the board and superin-
tendent of the Mission. Rev. Mr.. Nc
Cracken has most ably filled that
position ever since the Mission was
organized here, nearly twelve years
ago, and no man in Fargo has done
more commendable work in alleviat-
ing suffering and helpig others to
help themselves.

TO BE FIRE SCOUTS.

Fire Chief Elliot Whitehead of Oak
land, Cal, appreciated the value of the
scout preparation and believing that
the scouts can be counted on in emer-
gencies, is planning to form a fire.
patrol in each troop. These patrols
will receive recognition at fires and
will be counted on to prevent fires
Instruction in fire-fghting and preven-
ton and direction for forming the fire.
patrols is given by the chief himself.
Patrol leaders and older scouts are
eligible to join these patrols.
AT the end of the course of instruc-
ton, short civil service examination
will be given and the scouts receiving
the highest credits will be eligible for
election as fire chiefs, assistants and
captains.
The patrol will be taken to visit the
fire houses; the fire-fghting apparatus
will be explained and demonstrated
and fire drills will be conducted.
A distinctive badge or shield will be
worn by the fire scouts. This organiza-
ton will not conflict with the organiza-
ton in the schools, but will serve to
strengthen it, as the school fire war
dens will be even more efficient if they
are fire scouts.
