An emergency hospital for the care
OF persons suffering from influenza
has been established in the basement
of Trinity Lutheran church, Moorhead.
All persons sick enough to require
nursing will be admitted without re-
gard to creed or nationality This
hospital is established and will be
conducted by Moorhead chapter of the
Red Gross. DR.. ]. A. Aasgaard, presl-
dent of the chapter, rs at the head of
the movement, and Miss Ruth Brack-
en-, school nurse, is in charge. All OF
the doctors. of the city are co-operat-
assembled through Mrs. Fl. j. Harris,
secretary of the chapter, and other
members.
The large room is being divided
with curtains into three wards, and
the smaller room in the rear is the
pneumonia ward. These rooms are
well adapted for the purpose as there
is a large kitchen equipped with gas
ranges for the preparation of food
and supplying hot water. The rooms
are well ventilated and the location
is ideal. being away from noise and
dust, at the same time easy of access.
Thirty beds have already been
placed and a number of patients were
admitted this afternoon.

there have also been number of pa
tients admitted t0 the emergency hos
pital ward in Wheeler hall All of the
students who had not contracted the

YdnRS Prize
Pick and ShOOel

With the American Army in France,
Sept 90 Correspondence of the AS
sociated Press. Next to his rife, the
American infantryman in action in
France has learned to cherish his
pick and shovel above everything else.
By experience he has learned that his
pick and shovel will save him from
injury or death at times when his
other implements OF war are useless.
In the thrust against the Germans
in July and August, on certain days,
the Americans advanced so rapidly
that the infantry were on the go hour
after hour. AS their packs became
heavier some left behind piece by
piece parts Of their equipment. Even
in some instances doughboys tossed
aside their mess kits and emergency
rations and canteens and their coats
but until the last they clung 10 their
rifles and their picks and shoveIs and
went ahead to victory.
The pick and shovel are often
brought into action in a hurry when
it is necessary to dig in to escape
fragments Of gas shells or OF shrap-
mel II often happens, as It did time
and again during the recent French
American drive north Of the Marne,
that the infantryman during an ad-
vance Is too far behind the enemy to
make use of his rife and that when
the encrny's big guns are turned loose
his only defense IS 10 dig hole in
the field or roadway or wherever he
may be and make this his shelter Un-
til the attack is at an end or until he
is ordered elsewhere.

In the last story you remember
how Uncle Lucky put four little RED
sleds under the Luckymobile, and lef'
the wheels in the garage at home.
But, oh, dear me! After they had
gone little ways the Luckymobilc
wouldn't go. No, sir. It just stopped
and wouldn't bulge.
Goodness gracious meebus!" ex-
claimed the old gentleman RABBIT
and he got out and looked under the
seat and behind the lamps and in the
tool box, but he couldn't f1nd any
thing.
And then he poured some more
gasoline into the carbureter ano
honked the horn, and everything else
he could think off. and after that ne
took off his old wedding stoveplpe
hat and scratched his ear. But even
that didn't do any good.
Well, j declare said the old gen.
tleman rabbit, and then he said some
thing else, but won't tell it to you
What is the matter with the
Luckymobile? said Billy Bunny, ano
then the Luckymobile began TO pack
and back and back, and maybe II
would have backed off preciplce II
there had been one nearby, only
there wasn't. you l1noW.
And then something strange hap
pened. A little white bird flew down
from a tree and whispered into Billy
Bunny's ear. And then the little
rabbit shouted, "Git ap, you Lucky
SNOWbile!" and would you believe
it, away went that LuckysnoWbhe
like a bullet out OF a gun.
And if you haven't guessed what
made that ckymobile-excuse me,
1 mean that Luckysnowbile-go, I'll
tell you. It was because it didn't
want to be called a Luckymobile
after its wheels had been taken of.
That's why, and if you don't believe
me, you just ask that little white
snowbird that whispered in Billy
Bunny's ear.
Nov, where shall we go?" asked
the old gentleman rabbit.
Lets go down to the three and
one-cent store and get some sleigh
BELLS" said Billy Bunny.
"All right" said Uncle Lucky.
"And I'll buy a. big dinner bell and
put the horn away in the garage
with the wheels until summer comes
again." And then the old gentle
man rabbit began to sing:
Ting ling, here them ring,
When summer comes again I'll sing
The merry, merry bells,
OF flowers bright and gay,
Of we go, DER the snow,
OF babbling brooks and messy hooks,
Through the frosty dells.

HOLLAND SEEKS
U. S. FRIENDSHIP
Netherlands Society Is
Preparing To Send
Over Special Mis-
sion

Amsterdam, Sept. 8o.-Ccorres-
pondence of the Associated Press.)-
HoIIanders have been told by their
friends in the United States that
American opinion is undergoing a
change adverse to Holland. TO com
hat this q Netherlands society is pre-
pairing to asend a special mission to
America. in the hope of more firmly
cementing the friendship of the two
nations
Friends of Holland in the United
States. according to the Handelsblad,
which is regarded as the leading
newspaper in the kingdom. have
sent word to Holland that the feel
ing in America is that the people of
the Netherlands seem indifferent"
to the tremendous issues Of the war.
The paper declares that the con-
sensus Of American opinion is that
the Dutch fail to appreciate the purity
of Americas motives, that the Hol
landers think Of nothing but to keep
out of the war and enrich themselves
and that the loudness of their pro-
tests against any inconveniences
entente war measures is not prop
ortionate to the moderateness Of
their complaints against Germany's
crimes on land and sea-
Good Ground For Reproaeh.
The newspaper freely admits that
there is good ground for reproach.
MANY persons in Holland" it says,
Judge the war and the leading
statesmen of the various countries,
especially America, in a captious,
presumptious, even cynical spirit,
which is calculated to grieve, Amer
leans sorely. America can justly
expect Holland to believe, in the good
faith of it's declaration that it enter
ed the war not from egotistical or
selfish purposes but to free the world
from the cancer of militaristic i'm
perialism
Holland has not done nearly
enough to enlighten public opinion in
America regarding the true feelings
OF the American people. The spirit
of the Dutch people is largely mis-
understood and misinterpreted
abroad" ; fssi ri

labor disturbances occurred during the
month but were quickly adjusted.
Building operations. the State over, are
at low mark. Burlington building pro-

practically true throughout the State.

tail merchants trade Is reported as fair.
Cool weather has kept back sales of
spring goods. Collections among manu-
featuring and jobbng firms are reported
as better than among the retail merchants.
Further reports upon the maple sugar
production indicate that in certain sec
