RAYMER FORD AGENCY INDEPENDENT

The Raymer agency has become
an Independent agency. W. A.
Helmann has bought out his part
ner in this part of the territory and
takes over the Raymer territory
all on his own account and risk.
This will make the Raymer
agency one independent of any
other agency and it will look to
Denver alone.
Mr. Helmann was up from Ster.
ling Monday having the place for
his new building staked out and
will start work at once and rush
it to completion.
The new garage will be 100 K 50
feet, built of cement blocks and is
to cost about S6,0O000. 1t is ex-
pected that it be ready to occupy
some time the latter part Of Octo-
Der.
You will notice that in their ad
the name OF the garage as recently
determined upon has been changed
to the Helmann Motor Company.
District Attorney Fleming is re-
ported to be investigating some
aflidavits that have been made
about exemption claims. The
Greeley papers report that one
Loveland youth has been exempt
ed who Fleming says has lived with
his mother aud lived on her labor,
and now claims to be her support,
while another has secured exemp-
tion on as frivolous an excuse, and
in the mean time has been very
free with his sneers for the patri-
otism of those who have not claim
ed exemption False statements
in aiiidayits are likely to draw Sc
we're penalties if discovered, and it
will be well to be very cautious and
careful that you state the exact
truth in these matters. Valid ex-
cuses should be accepted, and BY
the same token, frivolous excuses
should be turned down.

AIRPLANEs FoREToLD IN BIBLE.

From The Philadelphia Public
Ledger: Charles A. Dana, whose bril-
liancy as its editor made The New
York Sun shine for ALL" visited Jeru-
salem. He wrote afterward of the ex-
traordinary material fulillment of
Biblical prophecy wherein 1t was fore
told that man should some day come
up to the Holy City behind a swaying
furnace"
The little Baldwin locomotive upon
its crooked track gave a good imitation
of ''swaying furnace" that bright
February day l assembled from Jaffa
to Zion.
But that has nothing to do with air
planes, which is what meant to write
about. There are fifty thousand air
planes lowering over the armies in
Europe, and the United States may
send over that many more.
Now turn to your Bible and read
how old jeremiah foresaw these hocks
Of winged men.
Behold, he shall fly as an eagle and
spread his wings" So said jeremiah.
Hosea also took a mental photograph
centuries upon centuries ago OF this
human bird: He shall come like an
eagle against the house Of the Lord"
Zachariah, too. had a similar vision,
and he beheld two women, and the
wind was in their wings"
But it was grand old Isaiah who pic
tured accurately what the Wright
brothers were going to do thousands
of years before they did it.:
THE stretching out of his wings
shall fill the breadth Of thy land, I'm
manuel"
Can you put upon canvas a more
graphic picture OF those fifty thousand
airmen over the battle field than did
Isaiah: ITO the land that is shadow
ing dark with wings?"
Is 1t any wonder that the old prophet
inquired: Who are these who fly as a
cloud?"

The general secretary at the Fargo
Y. w. C.. A, Mrs. Bessie Zickefoose,
requests all who wish to avail them
selves of the free course in telegraphy
that Is being offered at the associa-
ton, through the generosity of the
Western Union Telegraph company in
furnishing equipment and instructors,
to enroll this week. 1t is desired to
place the equipment within the next
few days, so that the instruction can

latest. and the number wishing to
take the course will govern the extent
of thes equipment. Twelve young
ladies have already enrolled for this

Iowa Women Farm
Managers Affiliate
With G.. r. Of w. G.

The General Federation of Women's
clubs, in a recent bulletin states that
reports Of the war work begun by wo-
men are flowing into the federation
headquarters from every state, county
and town in America. These reports
indicate that practically all of these
100000 club women are doing Red
Cross work studying and practicing
efficiency and conservation in the
home, and taking up in addition the
question OF Americanizing the alien or
the training Of women for new forms
of labor
Sixteen thousand women are said to
own farms in Iowa. In order to study
effective intensive farm work in war
time. an interesting organization, the
Woman Farm Managers of Iowa. COM
prised Of women who personally SUI
perintend their own farms, has re-
Gently voted to join the federation.
The president is Mrs. Nellie Richard
son, the mother of Dr. Florence Rich
ardson Of Drake university.
The general experimenting Of the
general federation war work is done
by the emergency service committee
appointed by the federation. One OF the
important things which this commit
tee is doing is getting women to sign
the pledge for food economy, and urg-
ing the various activities proposed by
the eleven departments of work, which
cover every phase of public service
from art to civil service reform.
Some Of the special plans made at
the New Orleans council (notably the
plan for certified registration) are de-
ferred because in common with all
other organizations the general feder-
alton is ranging itself under the Ma
tional Council of Defense Women's
committee appointed by the govern
ment for the purpose of mobilizing and
correlating the woman power OF the
country. Mrs. Josiah Evans Cowles,
president OF the general federation, is
one of the ten members OF this CEN
trail committee. Each state has had
special chairman appointed and the
work of organization goes rapidly for
ward, in the hope that the women OF
America may prove, as soon as pos
sible, an efficient and unified body for
government service
The departments of conservation
Cthe general situation), civics (the
community, home economics (the in
dividuaD, education and legislation

through Mrs. John Sherman Of Chica-
ga, chairman Of conservation.

Soldiers at Fort ~.
Lincoln Assured of
Big Feed July Fourth

Not only Bismarck people are con-
tributing literally for the big feed that
is being arranged for the soldier boys
at Fort Lincoln, July 4, but donations
are reported as coming in from sur
rounding towns, such as Mandan,
Dickinson and others. Nothing has
been left undone by the auxiliary to
Company A of Bismarck, which start
ed this project, to make the Fourth
celebration a great success, and these

being planned will surpass anything

Instead of at the Presbyterian church
chapel in Bismarck. as originally plan
ned, the feast will be served in the

this event, which will be one long re-
membered by the patriots stationed at
Fort Lincoln.
