"LADY FROM SECOND WARD"

When "the alderman from the Sec

at the meetings of the city council of
Rugby she does not hold cigar be-
tween her fingers, or puff strenuously
from a half-chewed cabbagerino; nei-
Their does she have to remove her feet
from the top of the table. 1t is quite
possible, too, that some of the Ian
guage used is more like some of that
to be found in the average newspaper
since Mrs. Rose Daigle defeated
John Sandy McTavish for the place.
Hoot mon, but that was some race
when the Irish beat the Scotch. It is
believed that is the first instance in
which woman has been elected to a
seat in a city council in North Dakota.
Mrs. |. Mcbride ran for mayor of
Rugby and got n votes but Hans
Bjornestad dug up 1874 and was given
the seat while Mrs. Mcbride will have
to stand. In Edgeley a lady also ran
for mayor of that municipality but a
mere man defeated her political as
pirations for the time being.-.James-

With The Editors
TREAT THEM LIKE HUMAN
PEINGS

The United States government is
doing a practical; service in uniting
the people by treating conscientious
DIRECTORS to military service with
kindness and even Difference. Not only
is the drafted man who objects to- war
given his choice,of large, number Of
noncombatant ACTIVITIES but under the
direction of the president the ex-
PLANTATION of the law is made to the
objector by "tactful and considerable
officer" We have learned great
deal about working in harness in this
country since the Civil war days when
Quakels and. other DIRECTORS were
thrust into prison for long terms be-
cause they would not shoulder arms.
There is ample work for all these peo-
pie to do in necessary army work
which does not take them within
sound of the firing line.-Nebraska

DOES THIS LOOK LIKE
BANKRUPTCY?

Strange isn't it, how the liquor in
terests will continue to harp on some
old theory which they have set up, for
years and years after the theory has
been utterly invalidated by facts, For
instance, the vets were sure that West
Virginia would go bankrupt under
prohibition. They said this so many
times that they have come to believe
it and now in New York where the
campaign is on in thirty-nine cities to
kill the saloon, they are telling the
people that West Virginia is bankrupt
and holding it up as a horrible exam
pie of what prohibition will do for a
state.
Prohibition in West Virginia be-
came effective July l, 1914. On July
l, 1915, the state had in the general
fund $37, o16.S9 and in all funds $685.
1862. After two more years of pro-
hibition she had on July l, 1917, in
the general fund 1904, 531. O6 and in
all funds $2,11S,576.28. On April l,
1918, the general fund was -738, O37.97,
and in all funds $3,656,776.98. In ad-
dition to the cash on hand as shown
above the state has investments in
various securities including many
thousands Of dollars in Liberty bonds,
amounting to about 1905, 900.

HUNDREDS OF CLUBS FOR
SOLDIERS AND SAILORS

Hundreds OF soldiers and, sailors
Clubs throughout, the country wher'
ever there are camps and environments
have been started and are being Who'll.
ly or partially supported by the War
Camp Community Service of the. War
and Navy department Commissions on
Training Camp Activities, and the SER
vice is cooperating, with as many more
clubs brought into existence by other
agencies. All this is pare of its effort
to promote wholesome, stimulating
and friendly: relations between our
soldiers and civilians, and it is at
these clubs where the soldiers mingle
with the townspeople and they are on
common ground that one OF the princi'
pal efforts is exerted. The War Camp
Community Service is not building for
day, and expects these Community
Clubs to persist after the war.
1t has been no easy task; to, bring
into existence almost overnight suf-
ficient clubs in all the cities adjacent
to our great training camps to acco-
modate the tens of thousands of SOL
diers, sailors, officers and marines
who are granted leave. Where no
buildings were available ground had
to be secured and club houses erect
ed. Junction City. Kan. for instance.
$4,000 was raised locally. for big
club building. In other cities advan-
tage has been taken of every kind OF
edifice that seemed available or Of
feed it's hospitality to the, soldiers.
In Brownsville, Tex, an Episcopal
Parish house was turned over to the
War Camp Community Service for a
club. In Corpus Christi the club is
in the city hall In Des Moines, Ia.
is was the Shriners' temple which af-
forded the necessary Accommodations.
and in Houston, Tex, an armory is
being used for a. club. The club

many soldiers and sailors are constant
ly passing through, is in the Union
Station, and in Laredo Tex, the club
is in. the city hall Little Rock, Ark.
has loaned some vacant rooms in the
old state house for the purpose, and
in San Francisco, the club rooms are
in big hotel. In Waco. Tex, the
club is in the largest office building in
tO"I, anu Ill IlciIpotCdN, -. l., IL 40
in COhen's department store. TO com
plete the variety, the club at zap
hank. L. T., is in a remodeIled theatre
and several Carnegie libraries thru.
out the country are used for this p,,r-
pose. In scores Of places local clubs
open their doors and turn over rooms
to the soldiers and d soldiers commun-
ity club at Deming N. NJ, was erect,
ed by the Federal Council of the
Churches of Christ in America.
But soldiers and sailors are shy
birds, and the securing of the proper
space for clubs was the least OF the
War Camp Community Services trou:
bles. The next problem was how to
conduct them and what to. put in
them. At one point where soldiers
club was started it is on record that
the soldiers appointed "a delegation
to go in town ITO investigate the club
and see If 1t was worth while" Now
thousands of soldiers per day throng
these clubs throughout the country
