"China Day" Celebration.


From the viewpoint of Picturesque
nese and numbers the celebration OF
China Day at the Altar OF Liberty at
Madison Square Park surpassed any
pf the exercises that have taken place

Waldorf and escorting DIR. v. X. Well

Waldorf, where he had been the guest
n honor at reception. and the other
beginning at Chinatown. a detachment
n marines. a company of infantry and
detachment of sailors escorted the
parade from the Waldorf, while the
pther procession started from China
Town headed by a band from the Pei
ham Naval Training Station. Back of
the naval band were fifteen Chinese in
khaki uniforms and members of the
Chinese American Citizens Alliance.
As the two parades met before the altar
The soldiers, salons and marines formed

Mas played and DR.. Koo introduced.
Applause for China.
The speaker drew much applause
from his audience when he asserted
that China could be counted upon to

to answer whatever calls are made upon
her by the nations she has Joined in the

DOCTORS ADVISE FOR
COLDS and GRIPPE

Ask any physician or druggist and
he will tell you that the best and only
effective remedy for bad cold, sore
throat or la grippe is what he calls
"a brisk calomel purge" which means
a big dose of calomel at bed time. But
as the old style calomel has some very
unpleasant and dangerous qualities
physicians and druggist are now re-
commencing the improved nausealess
calomel, called "Calotabs" which is
purified and refined from the sick
ening and dangerous effects and
whose medical virtues are vastly
improved.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water,-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor tn eslight-
est interference with your diet plea
sures or work. Next morning your
cold has vanished and your entire
system is purified and refreshed.
Calotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Your druggist guarantees
Calotabs by refunding the price if you
are delighted lady.

Grafton, N. D., July 8.-Lieutenant

forenoon, at Camp Dodge as a result
of al accident at the camp rifle range
yesterday afternoon. The family re-

that he had been seriously wounded

of the most popular young men here.

COUNCIL May
BUILD RAILWAY
PROPOSED TO CONNECT FORT
YATES WITH CANNON BALL
TO MARKET HAY SUPPLY.

Bismarck, July S.-In view of the
urgent demand is anticipated for hay
in North Dakota this fall, and because
the most convenient shipping point is
Standing Rock Reservation, which is
one of the states best sources of hay,
now has no rail facilities, the North
Dakota council of defense is contem-
plating, as a war measure, the laying
of the thirty miles of rails required to
connect Cannon Ball with Fort Yates.
The grade is already constructed.
Secretary Thomas Ayllen Box has in
v~estigated and discovered that second
hand rails suitable for this purpose
are available, and that if Director
General McAdoo Should decide that
his administration cannot handle this
necessary construction, the council of
defense will be asked to issue bonds
and build the road. Prompt action is
necessary if the Cannon Ball-Fort
Yates line is to be completed in time
to handle this years crop. Last year,
while North Dakotans not more than
200 miles from the reservation were
forced to send over into Minnesota
and pay fancy prices for hay, the
Standing Rock crop, which was loaded
cars around Sc and 81 the ton, was
1hipped put of the state into Montana,
because the Milwaukee line is the only
system Offering Sioux county railway
facilities. It is estimated that at least
1y000p0O tons of good hay will be av-
:ailable on Standing Rock this fall.
The present charge for hauling from
Fort Yates to Cannon Ball, the nearest
North Dakota rail point, is So, while
with = railroad constructed this freight
charge would more than cover the
c0st of transportation to the most dis
liant point in North Dakota. The coun-

PARENTS SHOULD NOTIFY
BOYS IN, FRANCE THAT L. B.
HANNA IS WILLING TO HELP

Bismarck, N. D., July S4.-Former
Governor L. B. Hanna, who represents
North Dakota in the executive 1ervice
of teh Red Cross in France, writes
Bismarck friends, that it is a difficult
matter to locate boys who an wound
ed and lying in military hospitals
there. He says there are about 800
hospitals and that an American boy
may be taken to any on e Of them. He
suggests that the boys have someone
notify him as soon as they enter q
hospital, in order that the may keep in
touch with him and inform their par
ents as to their conditions. He urges
that all persons writing soldiers from
North Dakota, advise the boys to do
this, 50 that he may quickly relieve
anxiety on the part of loved ones at
home, in case Of injury.
The difficulty connected with travel
in France cannot BE- appreciated by
one who has not been there, says Gov.
ernor Hanna. One first must have a
permit to take a train, and this means
q delay Of one to fifteen days. Then,
after receiving a permit to take the
train, one must have another permit
to travel on the train to a certain des-
tination, and that destination must
be fixed, for the permit will apply to
none other. Governor Hanna's ad-
dress is American Red Cross, 4 Place

urges that this notice be given the

In reviewing the progress that has
been made in automobile designing,
the results secured by engineers in the
direction of proper balance and light
weight deserves a big share of atten-
ton. These two things-the aim of
all good automobile engineers-are
synonymous with reliability, riding
comfort, tire economy and low main
tenance cost.
When the motor car industry was in
its earlier stages, not much consider
alton was paid to the problem of good
balance. There was often a difference
of many hundred pounds between the
amount Of weight that was carried by
the rear and front wheels. Automo-
bile engineers generally were of the
opinion that it was impossible to get
cars to the the point where front and
rear construction would be practically
evenly balanced.
BY reason of long tsudy, backed by
many years Of manufacturing exper-
ence, Studebaker engineers have de-
veloped the automobile to this point
where the new Series 10 models show
almost prfect balance. A complete
reorganization of the various units,
with greatly simplified construction
throughout, has So evenly distributed
the weight of each one of these new
cars that there is hardly so pounds
difference in the weight that is carried
by the front and rear wheels when
tonneau is occupied. The elimination
OF many parts, due to new and i'm
proved design, has made the new
~Studebaker cars notable for their light
weight.
The reason why good balance was
Sought for and secured was to give
the cars safety on the open road at
high speeds by preventing punching
and swaying about. A side-sway, in
some instances, is almost as bad as a
"~side-swipe". Then, too, it was ap-
preclated that eve balance and light
weight are essential to tire economy,
preventing uneven wear on the tires
and, naturally, reducing tire expense
as a consequence. An improperly bal
anced motor a means a constant
| source of trouble, because of the un-
: even wear and excessive strain on all
moving parts.
7 In the earlier days only the heaviest
of cars could be depended upon to
. hold the road at fast speeds. Weigh
ing 5000 pounds or more, their mere
: avoirdupois alone was responsible for
: their steady riding. By eason OF
J, good balance, Studebaker engineers
+ have adopted lighter, stronger and
better steels in their product and al
f the same time have secured far better
t reliability than the bulky machines
of the past. The new Studebake1
s Light Four weighs but 2,400 pounds
the Light Six balances the scales al
