TENTH DISTRICT OVERTOPS IT'S
QUOTA BY MORE THAN FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS
Several Points Yet to Report Results
of WOrk-Committees Give
Good Service

OVerSubScrlptlOnS are regular things
in this section Of the country, especl-
ally around this district. No matter
what the cause nor when the cal,
citizens are always responsive in
greater measure than asked. We
cleaned up on the Liberty Loan drive
and the Y. M. c. A. War Work Fund
campaign has been just as fruitful of
results. The tenth district, composed
Of Stark, Billings, Dunn and Golden
Valley counties, under the chairman
ship of E. P. Lee of this city, has
overtoppcd its quota as usual.
Though the district was apportioned
but $4,000, we voluntarily raised the
sum of $1,000 and went scooting be-
yond that and not all finished yet.
Stark county reports the following re-
suit: Richardton, $3.50; Lefor,
$44.50; Lehigh, $43.50; Belfeid,
$50o.l5; Taylor, $s26.25; Daglum,
$3.50; Zenith, $S4; Gladstone, $173.50;
South Heart, $99.50: Dickinson,
$2,O39.75. This makes a total Of
$3,556.65 for Stark county. Billings
county reports $561 and is still COL
lecting. Medora's contribution was
$361 and Fryburg expects to send
more than the 5000 sent in. Golden
Valleys report shows $735 to date and
they have expressed themselves as
working on district that will prob
ably produce an additional $500; Dunn
county did it's bit in fulsome manner,
making the following report: Kill
deer, $1050.5O; Halliday, 5000; Dunn
Center, $527.55; Dodge, SAILS; Emer-
son, $163; Werner, $570.10; Fayette,
$500; Manning, $26O.8O. Dunn
county's total was $3645.15, which is
LA per cent over it's quota. This
splendid result was due to the ener-
getic work of Chairman T. G. johnson,
and his committee, G. R. Meredith, C..
p. Peterson, known as 6-cylinder Pete,
D. J. Price, M. w. Power and E. w.
Jones. Rufus B. Lee did splendid
work at Gladstone, Henry Truleson
worked hard at Zenith, Roy Butler
handled Lehigh in effective manner,
B. o. Thorkelson did valiant work at
South Heart, R. j. Fleck produced
good results at Richardton, A. b.
Doran at Taylor made a dandy show
ing, Nick Lefor boosted as usual at
Lefor, Sentinel Butte may thank l..
F. Crawford for Golden Valleys
showing, G. E. Burgess kept live
SeAA40 III N!SOSAo1 a. ". Viii A-oeSAIoSAA
handled Fryburg in effective manner,
Sheriff Smith OF Beach and his CO.
horts worked faithfully. G. L. Schu-
mann representa- Belfeld and E. A.
Lillibridge was the county chairman
for Stark and was on the move all
the time. A word Of thanks to E. P.
Lee, the district chairman, for the
noble effort he put forth and the en-
thusiasm displayed. The tenth dis
trict owes a debt Of gratitude to the
several members forming the various
executive committees throughout the
four counties for the labor and time
sacrificed to the cause. 1t is conf
IDENTIFY expected that when all returns
are in the district will have figures to
show in excess of $4,000.
Golden Valley has just finished a
successful drive for ked Cross funds
and are thus delayed III getting in Oh
the Y. M. C. A. fund. However, when
the final report is made, we feel ce1-
tain that the quota will have been
reached in that county.
