Why You Should Go
To Church

To be of no church is dangerous. Religion, OF
which the rewards are distant, and which is animated
only by Faith and Hope, will glide by degrees out of
the mind, unless il be nvigoraed by external ordi-
nances, by stated calls to worship, and the sautary
influence of example.

continued. To support it financially

This support should include sub

in Support Of the War

Reports reaching District Chair
man A. B. Default this afternoon
indicate that Stutsman county will
oversubscribe it's quota of the Lib
erty loan bond sale by about 20 per
cent. Spiritwood, with an allotment.
of $500, subscribed $500; Mont
pelier is taking more than its quota:
Kensal takes $4,000 instead of
$4,000; Eldridge $3.50 instead Of
$1,000; Windsor, with $4,000 1not--
ed, has purchased $3.50 worth
Cleveland goes over the top with
$13,5OO instead of the $4,000 ex-
pected.
About $4,000 will be credited the
county by virtue OF the amount sub
scribed by railroad men living herex
and with all sources accounted for, it
will doubtless be found that the quo
ia of $25O,OOO for the county will be
far exceeded.
The effort has been made to keep
the subscriptions within bounds, AZ
it has been evident that the county
would go beyond the limits asked by
the state. North Dakota's share is
small compared with that of other
states In this district, and It n be-
lieved that the conditions that bro't
this about will not obtain when the
next loan is fioated. Then;:the state
will be called upon to give: much
more. So the attempt Is now being
made to get wide distribution OF
subscriptions rather than fewer but
heavier subscriptions.

MASONIC LODGE
OF NORTH DAKOTA

Many States Represented as
Well as All Branches Of Ex-

(By E. H. TOSTEVIN)

Somewhere in France, March H.

in France.
One hundred and sixty-three Ma.

ment Of the U. S. army.
The meeting was one which was
held under decidedly strange cir.
cumstances. Before the war this city
had q large-well. nearly modern
hotel. The war of course, shut OF
travelling in this part of France and
the American Y. N. c. A. procured
the use of the building. One large
room formerly the dining hall of the
hostelry, now generally used as an
officers Y. NJ. c. A., was converted
into the lodge hall.
The officers in charge were: Col
j. H., Frame, w. M; Lieut.. Col. G.
G: Grafton, S. w.; Maj. F. S. Henry
j. w.; Capt. J. w. Grant, S. D.;
Capt. IA. H. Sprague, J. D.; Capt.
j. c. Osterdahl, Lieut.; w. X. True
man, stewards; Sergt. E. H. Toste-
win, tiler. :.e r.
One candidate from Ohio, by re.
quest OF his home lodge received the
work in the second degree.
You Mas0ns will perhaps appre-
ciate what unique circumstances sur
rounded the meeting, when inform
ed that the jewels were cut from
aluminium mess kit covers. gavele
and other implements were fash.
toned by whiting them out of the
rude materials. at hand.
.'GEeat improvement over what
we had in the Philippines, in North
Dakota Military Lodge No, L." said
the worshipful master. "Over there
our jewels were cut from tin cans
Now we have aluminium. Going up.
Next war we probably will have
silver"
CONSERVATION reigned supreme
during the initiation. The Y. M. C. A.
secretary had forgotten a winding
staircase over in one corner of the
building which led to a loft up above
where French employees slept. Dur.
ing part of the degree work a man
came down this stairway, crossed q

OF course there was nothing for him
to learn, that would have hurt him

nothing. Just an example of these

Masonic work is always impress
