ONCE first our sres stood beside the stream,
And fired the shot that echoed round the world,
las come to pass the epoch Of their dream
When to the April breeze their flag nfured.
TODAY, where floats the Stars and Stripes, we deem
L Each star defiance at the tyrant hurled;
Each stripe a bar 'gainst despots, too, would seem
To interpose for human rights mperled.
TODAY, in foreign lands, the flag is flung
l Against a crimson sky across the sea-,
Where battle S bane from out the land has wrung
Its dreadful toll. 1t promises to free
Each nation, and to number each among
All peoples in a worldwide liberty.

new CARD FOR
BUYERS OF FOOD

Samples of Federal Food Admins
tration customers Card No. e" are
now being distributed to all retail
grocers of North Dakota for use in
recording all sales of sugar, flour and
flour substitutes sold at retail in the
state. This card is to replace "Cus-
toner's Card No. L. which has been
in use heretofore.
Card No. l differs from Cuctomer's
Card No. 2, in that space is provided
on the latter for recording several
purchases of sugar, flour and substi-
tutes, on different occasions during
the thirty day period and have ample
space to record each sale clearly and
legibly. ~. 0.....
AS in Customers Card No. 1, space
is provided to designate the number
in the family and space is also pro-
vided on this card to show the total
supply of each commodity permitted
under the regulations.
The card will show the name of the
customer and his address, the name of
the dealer and his address, the date
when the card was issued, the number
of pounds of sugar, flour or substi-
tutes on hand when card was issued
an dthen, as each purchase is made,
it will be recorded in a spact provided
for that purpose. The card is to be
retained by the dealer and returned
to the Federal Food Administration
at the Agricultural college at the end
Of each month. The reason for maxi
ing a change in the style of the card
was to allow space for recording sew
eral purchases during the period
which the card covers, . "a
dealers who have supplies of Gus
toner's Card No. l on hand will be
allowed to use up these cards before
beginning the use of Customers Card
No. g." said Federal Food Admins
traitor E. F. Ladd. mo new sup
plies of Custamer's Card No. l should
be printed as the use of newly printed
supplies will not be permitted. Deal
ers will continue to have cards printed
for their own use. .~-
1T is expected that Card No. 2 will
be used in North Dakota until some
change in the regulations makes it
necessary to issue new style of
card" ..s 80. "a. ,......,....

MORE BOOKS FOR
THE men OVERSEAS

The Normal and Public libraries
have received a request from the
American Library Associations head
quarters in Washington for more
books from this community for the
men overseas.
The appeal states that new novels
and good western stories, whether
new or old, are most needed. Books
by Jane Grey, Rex Beach, Jack Lon
don, Ralph Connor, Owen Wister and
o. Henry are very popular. The two
local libraries announce that they will
receive and forward all suitable books
that are turned in. They urge the
friends of the soldiers and sailors,
many of whom. have responded most
generously, to give more books.
The communication received from
the Washington headquarters states
that over 100000 books have been
sent overseas. The supply is nearly
exhausted, and several hundred thous-
and more will be needed soon by the
six dispatch Offices which are now
shipping books to France. The
books are packed at these dispatch

MUST DOUBLE !.
REPRODUCTION

Bismarck, Aug. 1.-THE people of
North Dakota are not buying at much
Ignite coal now as they were at this
time last year, although the shipments
Of bituminous and anthracite coal
into the state will be much lower than
they were in 1872 l4.t.\
This was the significant statement
today of Dorr Carroll, chairman of
the fuel committee of the state coun-
Gil of defense, as he deprecated the
seeming lack of concern of many
North Dakotans in whether or not
they will be able to keep warm next
winter. mi. ..s.
"There were about $4,000 tons of
Ignite coal produced in the state in
1917, and this production will have to
be more than doubled in 1918 in order
to make up for the shortage of coal
from the east" continued Mr.. Carroll.
"The entire consumption last year
was over 100000 Ignite tons, includ-
ing 1,75O,O00 tons of bituminous and
100000 tons of anthracite, which have
doubled the fuel power Of Ignite, so
we'll figure them at 100000 Ignite
tons; add to this the 684, 900 Ignite
tons, and you'll see it ran over 4,500,-
600 tons.
"The eastern shipments will GER
tainly be greatly curtailed so that the
Ignite mines here will have to turn
out at least 100000 tons. Unless
orders begin to pour in at once, they
cannot do it. The capacity is limited;
there are only so many mines, so
many cars, so many miners, and they
will have to get an early start on or
ders to double their capacity.
1T is a very serious proposition,
and both industrial and private con-
sumers should get busy at once"

FRAZIER HELPS
SHOCK WHEAT

Bismarck, Aug. Ex-Governor LYNN
}: Frazier last night headed a party
OF about 30 state officials and en-
plopees on an excursion to the farm of
Julius Anderson, where the hours un-
til darkness came were spent in shock
ing the grain which had been cut dur
ing the day. =
This is only the first of a number
of trips which have been planned
by the governor and others at the
state house. The pay which the work.
ers receive is to be given to the Red
Cross society.
Included in the party were Gov
.ernor Frazier, Nelson Mason his Sec
rotary, Secretary of State Thomas
Hall, Attorney General LANCER and
E. B. Cox, one of the deputies in his
office, Frank Packard, chairman of
the tax commission; VIM. Prater, land
commissioner, and his deputy Charles
Gutman and John B. Brown, assistant
secretary of the state council of de-
tense.
There were number of others Of
ficers and employees in the party.

WAR BODIES IN
STATE MERGING

every county in the state will c.
, operate with the state council of d.
Tense in facilitating war work of an
kinds" said Secretary Thomas Allen
Box of the state council yesterday.
Mr.. Box stopped on his way hohb
from LaMoure where he had been in
conference with the county committee
of that county relative to war activi-
ties.
i In speaking of the work being done
throughout the state by the council Of
defense Mr.. Box said:
1--WE now have county organizations
in 45 counties and are adding more
regularly. The county organization
forms branches in each town and
township, and we are working or
plan recommended by the government
to get every organization interested
in war work to combine with the
county defense body and in this way
concentrate all the work under one
working head, composed Of able peo-
pie who are anxious to have their
counties make creditable showings in
all activities.
''The plan is working out fine, and
we are getting the Liberty Loan, Red
Cross and other committees to work
with the defense bodies in many Sec
tons, which will make stronger work
ing bodies for the successful carrying
out of this important work.
There is one thing we are all
agreed on-and that is that we must
win the war and do it in the quickest
possible time. Regardless Of any po-
litical differences we can all stand on
common ground in helping win the
war, and we are finding hearty res
ponse to this sentiment everywhere.
Another matter that is being made
an important issue with the state and
local defense councils is talking to the
men who come into the state to work
in the harvest fields. While a major
ity Of them are willing to accept the
going wages, some are inclined to
want to profteer on account Of the
shortage of labor. .o.. H.. ..,.
eve take the stand that man who
will attempt to secure more than the
going wage and urge others to do the
same, is a profteer just as much as
a contractor who will defraud the
government on an army contract,
say, anu VIC o4C pulling IL up " lie
farmers and defense boards to make
this plain wherever the opportunity is
presented.
The men coming here to work are
in many cases taking the places of
boys who are risking their lives in the
army, and who are only being paid
$50 per month, and these men are be-
ing impressed with the idea that it is
not the wages that should be consid-
cred at this time, but rather the mat
ter of duty to the country in time of
stress. 1t is a patriotic plea founded
on solid fact, and, where properly pre-
scented, has good effect on those who
might want to hang back for more
pay" -.
Mr.. Box stated that every county in
the state will organize a country de-
Tense body under the plan outlined by
the state council, and these county.
bodies will play an important part in
the patriotic activities of the state.

JUNIOR RED CROSS.

We are earnestly asking all rural
schools yet in session to organize a
Junior Red Cross without fail; also
all teachers who have already closed
their schools without making an or
ganization, If they are conveniently
close to their past work, to perfect
the same at once.
We further recommend that in
any district having a Senior Red
Cross Unit but not a Junior Senior
officer volunteer to assist the organ
ization. Literature can be had
promptly from w Clyde Johnson, at
Mexico. The membership fee Isl 20
cents for each pupil enrolled. The
fee may be secured by an entertain
ment or in some other way. The or
ganization may pledge for any sort
of work they may wish.
This Organization must be solid
over the county right away, It VIII
mean so much to those in charge II
each district will do its part.
