argo, N. D., March ga meeting
of the democratic state central com.
mittee Of North Dakota will be held
at Fargo on April g On the same date
a general meeting of North Dakota
democrats will be held. and state com.
mitteemen and county chairmen are
urged to make every effort to secure
the attendance of members of the
party. National party leaders will
be on hand, with other speakers Of
prominence, and a general representa-
ton Of North Dakota democracy is
anticipated.
1t has been announced that the DEM
ocrats will name: complete state and
congressional as well as legislative
ticket at the June primaries. Early re-
ports of the possibility of a coalition
of the democrats with the republi-
cans to oppose the league are given
no credence by state leaders, who
state positively that no such course
has been considered The national
organization, it is said. in view of the
splendid vote which North Dakota
gave Wilson two years ago, has hopes
for the future of the party in this
state. ..

last year and over which rye seed al

The easing u pom restrictions as to
inseparable foreign material and an

regulations will be especially encour-
aging to North Dakota farmers. Where
a rotation Of crops is practiced. as is
now very generally the case in this
state. it is an absolute impossibility
to prevent a certain aqmixture Of
grains. The same applies to a mixture
of different varieties of wheat While
such mixture, under the new stand
ards. has served to greatly reduce the
grade and the price which the farmer
can obtain for his wheat, it has been
commended that such mixture In no
wise reduces the flour-making quail
ties of the grain. In fact, it was prov
en- on the testimony of millers at the
hearing here that good No. dark
northern spring was reduced with
considerable quantity of durum and
other wheats as q means of imprOv-
ing the quality of the flour.

A large crowd gathered at the home
of Willis Ryan, all anxious to see the
wedding proceed.
The first selection on the program
WIS violin solo by Mrs. Iverson, ac-
companied by Mrs. Weed, which we
all greatly enjoyed.
Rev Weed gave very interesting

us all feel that the fundamental thing
Of life is unity, at home and else
where. Ora Cahoon, Harley WEIGH
and Harland Hill held their audience
with their delightful songs.
Ruth Deppe surprised and delighted
the audience with a vocal number i'll
which she took the part of a little red
headed girl.
After visiting intermission the Red
Cross nurses, as they were dressed,
marched through the beautifully dec
Grated rooms in advance of the bridal
party. After the bridal party had TAX
en- their places, George Carpenter read
the service. it being the ring cere-
mony. A cabbage head was the bearer.
The groom found great difficulty in
kissing the bride, for she was some
ten or twelve inches taller, but in
jumping the broomstick she did fully
as we'll as he, with all the skirts. The
wedding went off beautifully, each one
taking his part to the best of his abil-
ity. The old maid, ] am sure, made a
hit with everyone present willis
Ryan,. After the ceremony, Marie
Carpenter told of her trials as mar
ried man. Then we all enjoyed Ivan
Cahoon's and Glen Hills trials and
tribulations also a song by Harland

amounting to $38, will be used by the

With the passing of the German
language from American schools
Spanish is being suggested as a sub
stitute. After this war our relations
with Latin countries on this CONT
nent will become more intimate than
with any other race, and no other Ian
guage will be so useful. AS to the
mental discipline in study, Spanish is
made up of Latin roots and deriva-
tons, and would be more important
as a study. 1t is also almost the most
musical of languages, and the easiest
acquired The wonder is that it has
not been adopted in all schools.-J. E..
