A considerable clamor has gone UP
from various sections of this country
about the futility and unpreparedness
of the United States navy Ring Lar
ner alludes to it as both our ships.
But in spite of all this, the yearbook of
the navy for 1916 makes quite a re-
spectacle volume, both in size and
makeup. G. r. Nelson has given this
book to the library and it will be espe-
cially valuable just now.
The Outing has two very interesting
articles in the last issue, one on the st.
Paul carnival. entitled, The City That
Discovered Winter. and the other on the
dog marathon, entitled, From Winnipeg
to st. Paul by Dog. These articles are
profusely illustrated by photographs,
and will help to bring the northwest
into greater prominence before the
country, and may, perchance do some
thing to dispel the ideas which still
linger in the effete east as to our pri-
vations and dangers, and general joy
lessness of life.

all of us Americans during these trou-

Hillsboro, N. D., March 6.-"North
Dakota is growing better. While visit
ing the recent session of legislature at
Bismarck, l was very forcibly i'm
pressed with the honesty, the upright
ness and the abstinence of our law
makers. They certainly are the best
legislative body that this state has
ever had"
So said Juvenile Judge Guptill, of
Fargo, in an address before the Young
Mems club of this city, last evening.
During the fifteen days / was at
Bismarck / did not once notice the
odor of liquor nor did l see any of the
fiery stuff" continued the speaker
Another remarkable thing was the
honesty in refusing brides which the
members showed.
AS further evidence that the world
is turning toward a greater future,
Mr.. Guptill pointed out that the Eu-
ropean war, fearful thought it is, will
unquestionably result in permanent
peace that will permit civilization to
advance much faster than ever be-
fore.
Then directing his theme toward
the parents, Judge Guptilll emphasized
the wonderful work before them and
the great responsibility upon their
shoulders-that the keeping North Da-
ormation that is coming. In choice
words he sketched the necessity of
the right kind of home influences and
training to the younger generation and
how the great majority of the 643
cases that he had handled in the
juvenile court during the last year,
were due to this lack. For example,
he told of the case Of a certain father
who told his boy to go out and rustic

Fargo residences were robbed of the

when father gave his little son a
pipe to smoke. and boastfully demon
strated the feat to his neighbors.
Not only boys, but girls, as well,
needed careful supervision, affirmed
not to be so overanXious to get their |
daughters into society that they would |
accept any explanation as to their |
whereabouts, actions and companions. |
All these things should be carefully |
investigated.
Next Mr.. Guptill turned to the
young men, and told them of the part |
which they must take in this reform |
work. He emphasized. first, the |
necessity that they themselves must
lead clean, honest and upright Chris |
tian lives. in order to be able to cor
rect the faults of others. Then the
speaker demonstrated few OPP
portunities for reform work that came |
to them, in every day life. He called |
to mind that the only way boys can
obtain cigarets is through their old
er companions. If the young men |
would make it a point to prohibit this
