STILL NEED LINEN
At THE RED CROSS

Phoenix is still behind in its quota
Of linen. The committees in charge
check the hnen late every afternoon,
and with only one day left, the local
Red Cross chapter has still to raise the
following: 220 sheets 200 hand towels
240 bath towels 80 napkins, $50 hand

The pleasing feature of this drive is
the spirit OF sacrifice it entails. Many
inquiries have been received if the
articles asked for must be linen. The
sheets may be bleached or unbleached
muslin. G4x99 inches or longer. the
towels buck or crash. Anyone having
contributions to make is earnestly
urged to respond ut once.

WILKINSON IS
CONFIDENT OF
DOYLE VICTORY
Progressive Democratic Leader

ASKS FRIENDS TO RALLY

To the men who voted for me for
the Democratic nomination for gov.
ernor Of North Dakota I would make
this appeal: Go to the polls on No.
vember and cast your vote for S. j.
Doyle for governor"
So declared George Wilkinson of
Fargo today He has made tour of
much Of North Dakota and returned
to Fargo this morning confident that
Mr.. Doyle will be North Dakota's next
governor. ~>
Mr.. Wilkinson. very shortly after
the primary election of last June in
an editorial in the North Dakota Dem
Ocrat. his newspaper published in
Fargo, declared himself for the cleo
ton of Mr.. Doyle and pleaded for the
united support of his party men for
the nominee for governor
Calls on His Supporters.
II sincerely hope that every man
who cast his ballot for me in the June
primary election will vote. on Novem
Der 5. for Mr.. Doyle" said Mr.. Wilkin-
son today. ut is essential to the vel
fare of the state that we should place
him in the governors chair and that
we repuhiate the socialists and the So
cialistis principles for which the op-
pc"ing candidate for governor is com
mitted.
When the result of the primary
election was known, I said, in the col
umns of the Democrat:
The issues are clean-cut in the
coming campaign. This is no time for
half way measures Only a candidate
whose record is 100 per cent American
and whose support of President Will
son and Americas war aims has been
without stint, can conscientfously be
accorded the support of the rank and
file of the voters Of the state. Stephen
J. Doyle measures up to these stand
ards. 'a
There is one more issue in the
campaign that should not but concern
the Democrats of the state. 1t means
the continuation of the Democratic
party as an organization in North Da-
kota.
" The Nonpartisa1 league has Of
fered a haven to voters Of all parties
in it's campaign in the state. Without
discussing the merits or dement's of
the league, there is this to be said:
No good Democrat can do himself or
his party any good by affiliating with
an organization to the detriment Of
the party which has stood for the
highest ideals in the government Of
of peoples and nations since the time
it was founded. ke@l
&c The Democrat believes there is
no better time than this coming cleo
tion for the Democrats Of North Da-
kota to vote solidly Democratic, repre-
senting an unbroken front to all oppo-
sition, and to this end it urges every
Democrat to vote for Stephen j. Doyle
for governor, and likewise for each
Democratic candidate on the ticket

On the of Belgiums deliyerance there is a
of 5000, 100000 people wholly dependent upon aid
from the allied governments for their daily bread
bIance of restoration has been accomplished. Long
before the United States entered the the dollar
Christmas fund was the means of bringing hope
and comfort to the destitute Belgian children at a
time when hope and comfort and American sympa-
thy were badly needed. There are 100000 such
children, and thanks to American support given
ing the Christmas season have been able to bring
ray of sunshine to all the most necesstous cases
the poorest of the poor the orphans, the sick and
the suffering The inspiration of the day has
spiritual meaning to help far in excess of the
of buying the Christmas dinners albeit we have
spent over $25o,OOO in four successive Christmas
seasons.
The dollar Christmas fund transfers its annual
collection to the commission for relief in Belgium
which has the necessary machinery for purchase and
distribution among the children in Belgium and
treasurer of the fund Henry Clews is making his
fifth annual appealand by the grace of God the last
to the generosity of the American people. There
still food supplies in Belgium which can
be bought by agents of commission relief and
with these supplies it is hoped to be able to give
every necessitous child an extra meal on Christ
mas day.

his own sake and for the sake of
the prospective partner. 1t is fool
hardy for young man or young
woman with tuberculosis not yet
arrested to associate in the init
mate way of lovers with a prospec-
tive partner, if the health and hap
piness of that partner are worth
preserving. The disease is almost
certain to be conveyed from one
lover to the other. 1t is certain to
be conveyed from husband TO wife
or wife to husband living together
A child born at the time when eth
er parent has active tuberculosis
is sure TO be infected in the first
months or years of life, whether
the disease in the child develops in
active form then or years later.
With the individual whose tuber-
culosis is arrested marriage is an
other question. There is no dang
er of infection from one with ar
rested tuberculosis. The question
to be answered in every such case
is: Can the individual maintain
health in the after-marriage en-
vironment? This question can be
intelligently answered only by the
individuals own physician after a
careful consideration of the history
and the individuals plan of life.
Marriage is no joke, as we heroes
who have survived it know, and
when any question of tuberculosis
is concerned an engagement should
be considered tentatively if at all.

friendship my dear husband felt for
you, perpetuated with those of us
who survive him. Mightn't my help,
my counsel relieve you of your
heavy Ioad?"
1t was so kindly said that Burr
could not resist a free confession.
Mrs. Bertram regarded him with a
compassionate interest that stirred
him deeply. She arose silently,
went into another room and re-
turned with a time worn obIong
envelope, which she rendered him.
What is this?" he inquired in
some wonder.
do you remember after my hus-
band died sending me a thousand
dollar government bond to help mo
out of my troubles as the widow Of
your old partner" reminded Mrs.
Bertran. Il never disposed of it,
but OH the many close corners it
helped me to turn, as security to
my creditors, as sure, safe re-
serve to count on. Mr.. Burr, the
time has come when just that
amount may save you. Willingly,
grady, oh, SO gladly! 1 ask you to
use it, to risk it, to lose it, if must
be, in your business"
1t saved the day and found itself
back with double interest into the
kindly hands that had so freely be-
slowed it. But with success and
new riches Warren Burr never
ceased to covet the peace and har-
mOny and comfort OF the fair wild
Cw's home, and one day he told
Leila Bertram how much. and be
came her sharer in that happy do
main.

ish in some of her ways, Mrs. Bert
ram recognized him at once.
For one bright happy evening, at
least, Warren Burr forgot his trou-
| bles, and they were serious ones.
| He had been a liberal man with
! the fortune left to him five years
! previously. There were few friends
| or relatives who had not benefited
| through his benevolence. He set
| tied down finally with what he
deemed was sufficient to provide for
| him the rest of his life. Later he
! became interested in a project for
securing from the bed of three riv-
ers where they came to a conflu-
| ence, a gritty deposit which gave to
cement an adhesiveness and Stabil-
! ity of great value. He bought up
all rights, went out for orders and
received more than he could fill
built his grinding plant, and after
investing his last dollar in the
world was told by the house he had
bought his engine from, that the
last seven hundred dollars due on it
must be paid before they would in
stall it.
Then it was that Burr had gone
among his relatives to raise the
last thousand dollars that would
place the coping stone on his enter
prise, to meet with bitter disap-
pointment as noted. The only
bright spot in his wanderings and
useless opportunities was the quiet,
pleasant evening at the home OF the
Bertrams.' The comfort, the con-
tentment. the influence of kindly,
honest hearts. made him wish he
might cast aside all his dreams OF
fortune and forget his troubles
amidst such congenial and ideal
environment He had announced his
intended departure the next morn
ing when, having sent the children
to school and her mother busy in
the kitchen, Leila BeTtram came
into the little parlor and sat down
opposite her guest in a palpably
disturbed and constrained way.
