delegates from every county in the state

verse. save Cass county. Elk Governor
Safles of Traill county, the president of
the state organization, presided.
The delegates from along the line
reported good progress in the work done
the last year, and now there will te
federal aid to highways legally laid out
it is expected that the interest IN this
important highway will be more than
ever. Grand Forks county reported that
twelve miles of their road had already
been graveled.
The greatest need at the present time
was re. marking of the trail. The old
signs are faded and in some places they
have fallen down. A committee consis.
ting of Ole Hong, of Trail, w. H. Kel-
sey of Grand Forks and G. G. Thomp-
son of Pembina counties were selected
to make arrangements to have the signs
along the entire length of the Meridian
road through North Dakota repainted in
a uniform way, and if possible contract
with the some parties to do the work.
Each county organization is expected
to look after what is to be done in their
respective counties to improve the road
and to look after such money approprla-
tion as is available to carry on the work.

 STOCK MARKET

New York, March 29-Opening- Much of today's early trading in stocks centered around two new is- sues, Sinclair Oil and Midvaae Steel The former, on very heavy dealings, soon scored an extreme advance of five points to 59 1-2, but Midvale Steel made little headway, ranging between 60 and 60 Ia. as against yesterdays final price of 60 7-S on the curb. Recent active specialties were again prominent at gains of 1-2 to 1-2 points. Bethlehem Steel new stock, Lackawanna Steel, American Can and Hide & Leather common and preferred rose one to two points. United States Steel and standard railroads were irregular.
 Noon.-Specia1 stocks increased their gains for the most part, Wilson Pack ing rising six points with two to 1-2 for American and Continental Cans. Ohio Gas rose 3 1-2 with as much for Montana Power. In the steel group Virginia Iron rose four points and oils were featured by gains of two to three points in Texas Go. and Mexican Pe- troleum A spirited demand for the secondary steel issues set in at mid day, those stocks rising one to two points. Railroads, metals and ship pings were comparatively neglected. Bonds were steady.

FIFTY MILLIONS
 FOR U. $. RAISED
 WITHIN 24 HOURS

Washington, March 29-The twelve Federal reserve banks yesterday over subscribed on twenty-four hours mo- tice a ninety day loan to the govern ment of $5O,000, 1000 at the rate of. 2 per cent. a year.
 The money was borrowed on ninety day Treasury certificates of indebted
 ness to help tide over the government till June, when the great stream of income and internal revenue taxes will flow into the Treasury. An addition al $5O,00O.000, it was announced, may be borrowed in the same man. ner before the close of the fiscal year.
 Temporary financing of the govern nlent in this manner was made neces- sary by the depleted condition of the balance in the general fund of the Treasury, reduced to approximately $58, 8,000.000 and facing a further re- duction of $25,000,000 on Saturday when the government will issue a warrant for that amount in payment for the. Danish Wess Indies.
 The issue of certificates of indebt- edness to run not longer than one year and to bear interest at rate not ex- ceeding 3 per cent. has been authoriz- ed by Congress up to $500, ,00O, 900, and today's issue is the first to be made under this authorization. Tn ad- dition, Secretary McAdoo has author ity to issue $474,000,000 in. bonds for various purposes, including Panama Canal bonds to reimburse the Treas ury for the amount paid out of ort1i- nary receipts for the construction of the canal. MT. McAdoo is understood to have the issuance of bonds under consideration
 The quick subscription to the $50.- 100000 issue of certificates by Fed eral reserve banks alone-without reference to any of the member banks of the Federal reserve system, with their billions of dollars or resources at rate of interest per cent. lower 1 than the rate authorized, is viewed by officials as striking, demonstration of the excellent condition of financial preparedness of the nations financial system for any events that the future
 may hold
 ''This is extremely gratifying said Secretary McAdoo in announcing the acton, and shows not only fine spir-
 1t on the part of the reserve banks
 but Is an additional demonstration ot
 the usefulness of the new reserve sys-
 tenn to the country. A statement ot the allotments to the subscribing banks
 will be given out as soon as the de. tails are completed. l Tt is possible that an additional is.
 sue of $50,000,000 of these temporar,
 certificates of indebtedness may be is.
 sued before the end of the present
 fiscal year. No statement can be
 made about possible issues of govern. ment bonds until further dax,o1or ments in the international situation"

she ?" he said. Thrifty? Good Lord, mol"

I have found one man in this town who really knows what thrift is. He
 was puzzling over this question: "Is it better to put $5 a month into
 savings bank, or wait two months until $10 had accumulated so that he may buy a ten dollar bond?" At the savings bank he can get per cent interest. He has figured that in 5 years the bank will have for, him $335; in 10 years, $743.50. If he bought ten dollar bond every other month, he would have $500 worth of bonds in ten years, and an in4ome of. SIS a year from then I $1.50 a month. Would buying the
 bonds and learning to clip coupons
 stimulate him to learn more and more
 about investments?
 He said to me, after we had debat- ed this problem:
 Seems to me the biggest part of this thrift game is to find a way to
 make your dollar work for you after you've saved it-I mean in a safe job. What are proper wages for dol
 lars at work on a safe job? Seems to me we've got to find out. That man said something! have talked with a man in this city who has eleven men working for him. asked him t6 put down their
 names, and grade them for efficiency. He handed me the list
 Five names at the top were closely grouped-all above 90 per cent. The | other six were given marks ranging
 from S5 per cent down to 50 per cent I I asked this man to help me find
 out what men among the eleven are practical disciples of Thrift. He did. 1 Yes. you've guessed it-just as I 1 did--those 5 most efficient workers either have money in the saving bank
 or own such investments as guarantee
 them against worry in case of acci-
 dent. sickness or loss of employment l not due to their own fault
 The .85 per cent man is a young
 fellow who is looking into a building
 and loan proposition, but hasn't yet begun to make payments on shares. 1 The 50 per cent had never thought of
 Thrift; he was bored and suspicious
 when we tried to talk it with him.
