the institution on Wednesday of this
week to become member Of the staff
Of the state department of public in
struction at Bismarck.
He will have charge Of the bureau of
certifcation of teachers.
Mr.. Grain is eminently fitted for

had served as rural school teacher,
city school teacher, principal, city

most popular members of the faculty,
both among the instructors and

interests Of the institution at heart.
Mr.. Grain succeeds Mr.. Morris j.
Kernall, an alumnus of the school,

Another Old Settler
Gone TO His Reward

A telegram was received Sunday
from Fullerton, CAL, announcing the
sudden death of George A. Fridd, at
the home Of his brother, John, in that
city. The news came as a distinct
shock to his many friends in Valley
City and Barnes county.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fridd left about
Thanksgiving time to attend reunion
of the Fridd family at Berlin, Wis.
They spent some time there and then
left for California in hopes that the
warmer climate would benefit Mr..
Fridd's health.
Mr.. Fridd came to Barnes county in
1880, locating at Oriska where he was
engaged in the general merchandise
business for number of years, after
wards moving to Valley City where he
became associated in business with O.
P. Emerson. After disposing of his
interests in the store to Mr.. Emerson
he accepted position with the whole
sale grocery firm of Winston, Har-
per & Fisher, Of Minneapolis, as trav-
cling salesman which position he held
for fifteen years. Since he retired
from the road he has been engaged
time of his death.
Mr.. Fridd was a member Of all the
branches of the Masonic order, also of
the Woodmen, and Elks lodges and Of
the Congregational church, and was a
member of the choir Of that church
for more than 80 years, also a men,
Der of the Brotherhood since it's or
ganization. He served as a member
of the city council for several years
and always had the best interest of
Valley City at heart.
George has gone and his genial
smile will be missed among us. He
was always ready to extend helping
hand to those in need and although a
great sufferer in the past few years,
he was always ready to extend SYM
pathy to his fellow sufferers. The
sad death of his daughter, Blanch a
few years ago was blow from which
he never recovered, but he carried his
burden with a sad heart and smiling
face. Now he too has answered the
roll call.
He has left to mourn his loss, his
wife, one son, Paul, of Los Angeles,
CAL, and his daughter, Mrs. P. J. Hy-
land Of this city, and several broth
ers and sisters. He will be buried at
Fullerton, Cal.
The sympathy of the citizens of
Valley City and Barnes county go out
to the family and relatives in this hour
of trial and bereavement, and trust
their hearts will be comforted by the
knowledge that he died loved and re-
spected by all who knew him and who
will long cherish his memory. He left
this legacy: "That the world is bet
ter because he lived"

Milwaukee, Wis, Jan. IA, 1918.
Dear Editor:
1t just occurred to me that you might
like to get another letter from me so
am writing few lines and here is an
item that might interest the people OF
Valley City.
Married: At ShaunavOn, SasK., on
Thursday, January 10, 1918, Mr.. Louis
Parsons of Consul, Sask., to Miss Ada
Clemmie Murphy, of Prince Edward
Island. This interesting item was &C.
ceived by B. A. Parsons at Milwaukee
last Friday. The groom was formerly
money order clerk in the Valley City
post Office during the regime Of Post
master w. H. Pray. He moved to Can
ada three or four years ago and took
up a half section farm which he still
owns. He is also postmaster Of his
town and is also engaged in buying
grain, and is doing very nicely, there
fore it is no wonder that he Sec -ded
to take unto himself wife. He is a
fine young man and has lots of friends
IN Valley City and Barnes county who
will extend congratulations and good
wishes The bride has been engaged
in teaching school in that section Of
the country and is most estimable
lady. The newly married couple de-
parted Immediately after the wedding
for honeymoon trip and expect to
return to Consul sometime this week
where they will settle down to
Housekeeping. l am sure they have
the best wishes of many friends for a
happy and prosperous journey through
life.
l am getting little bit peeved at
your mail clerk or the railroad clerks
have not received to exceed two
copies Of the Daily Times-Record any
week that | have been here and we
miss the paper so much. Got two
copies this morning and was indeed
very sorry to learn in one Of them that
nv old friend Ernest Critchfield had
passed to the great unknown. He was
a good man and l certainly liked h. m
very much.
We are just IS miles from Chicago
and right in the belt where the pop
ulat.on is the thickest and where it is
supposed train service could not be
stopped very easy, but the past week
we have discovered that North Dakota

Passengers marooned here for 0veT

hee everybody but babies can do with

made things look serious. The city
government employed about two
thousand men to shovel snow to keep
the main streets reasonably clear and
the schools were abandoned for c0,-
pie of days to give the school children
a chance to shovel snow as a precau-
ton against fire. In this city Tres arc

to call stuck blocks from here, the
driver sitting on the seat without u
coat and without gloves and ,zerc

Vail out, doesn't it? However, a crowd
soon gathered with shovels ana the
equipment was dug out and soon PIT
out the fire, which was a small one in
this case. This only shows what q. biz
city is up against when they get a re4s
blizzard. Coming from North Dakota
was so pleased over it that put o.
my toys and went out in it so I could

Then when we got the morning pa
