STREET CAR FARES
MAY Be INCREASED

ATLANTA, Ca, April 19-Will the
scent street car fare pass out of exist
ence, at least for the period of the
war, along with the scent loaf and
1.-THE 2-cent stamp and the 10-cent
motion picture ticket?
Every indication points to the be-
lief that it will, and Atlanta business
men confidently expect that the peo-
pie of this city will soon be paying
cents to ride on street cars, together
with the people of other cities in
Georgia.
The local street car company can
hardly employ men to operate the
cars. They take a car out on route
and violate a rule and when an in
spector reprimands them they quit.
This has happened in nuemrous in
stances. The company has raised its
wages once and expects to raise 1t
again But even at that, such high
wages ere being paid on government
work that it's almost impossible 10
get them.
TIE same situation prevails to
greater or less degree in every sity
in the state, and in every city in the
country. Street car fares have been
increased to cents or more in many
of the leading cities Of the country.
The National Association of Railroad
Commissioners, composed of the mem
bers Of the state commissions which
regulate street railways and other pub
lie utilities, declared in favor of in
creased fares in a resolution adopted
at its recent convention in Washing
ton.
Several petition for increased fares
and rates are now pending before the
railroad commission for Georgia

DRESS OF GIRLS IS
CALLED IMMODEST

ATLANTA, Ca, April 19.-The dress
Of young girls is entirely too bold, al
most bordering ON immodesty, de-
clare Atlanta club women, and they
have launched a movement against it.
DR.. Rachel Yarros, famous woman
physician, is here in the interest of
the movement for teaching sex hy>
giene, and her lectures have given
special point to the movement for
simpler and more modest styles for
girls.
1t is a well-known fact that moral
standards are usually relaxed in time
of war, but in this war our govern
ment boldly proclaimed the single
standard for men in uniform at the
very outset, and took efficient steps to
enforce this standard. The young
girls of the country are nevertheless
in need of special care nd protection,
however, and extreme styles have a
tendency to encourage the demoraliz-
ing effects o war. 1t is for this reason
that Atlanta club women are so ener-
getically interested in the subject.
They plan an aggressive campaign
among all women's organizations and
in the churches.

j. H. Whitcher made q flying trip
to town Wednesday and he was not in
the most jovial frame of mind, either,
and under the circumstances we do
not blame him for being somewhat
peeved. It seems that he sent his
hired man out into the hay field to
make a sort of counter attack on the
hay field. Before he left Mr.. Witch
er said "be sure and fix your horses
SO they won't run away" Whitcher's
horses are we'll fed and full of ginger
and you can imagine the rest. The
hired man was somewhat lax in look
ing after those horses and the next
thing the "boss" saw was that team
making 2:4O time down the section
nne with the hay rake, making faster
time than Mr.. Whitcher did when
he drove his crack PAGER around the
track at the county fair year ago.
The result of this race was that the
team made a couple of miles, then
smashed few things in the farm
yard and incidentally "pied" that hay
rake until it is now ready for the junk
dealer to come around and take it off
his hands. It meant that he had to
come to town and buy a new rake
which he did from the Barnes County
Implement Company, and today he
has regained his usual happy demean-

Studios from Mary Raymond Shipman
Andrews novelette,, "The Three
Things" and featuring Raymond Nc
Kee and Marguerite Courtot. The
United States Marine Corps cooper
ated with the producers in the max
ing of this picture, and many Of the
scenes were taken at the Marine Can
torment at Quantico, Virginia.
"The Unbeliever" is thrilling and
inspiring production. It is safe to
say that it will make sensation. 1t
will attract not only the habitual pa
irons of motion picture theaters, but
those who attend only when some ex-
traordinary production is shown. "The
unbeliever" has been highly praised
by every critic to whom it has been
shown.

sight of the splendid eagle sitting
there in solitary misery. I submit
the following lines:
Confined within the prison walls
A bird of freedom sadly broods.
Above, the bright blue sky
Around the splendour of the Ieafy

What dreams are your? sad bird.
From wretchedness to flee
To the glad splendor of the sky
The ectasy of the free?
On spreading wing among the stars
Your fathers sped in freedoms flight
Above the mountains pinnacle
Their bright eyes braved the suns
bright light.
The symbol of our liberty
Confined within your darkened cave,
Can we as patriots bear the stain
And keep you still a slave?

SUNDAY AFTERNOON
AT CHAUTAUQUA

From far and near came automo-

the various country districts of the
county and from many points further
out than Barnes cunty to listen to the
program. given at the Chautauqua
and particularly to Major C. E. Hunt,
who has recently arrived from France.
It is estimated that between fifteen
and eighteen hundred people assem-
bled in the auditorium despite the hot
weather. The Municipal band open
ed up the program with a splendid
concert. Miss Dorothy Jagd followed
with a very excellent reading, a quar-
tet composed of Mrs. w. T. Craswell,
Mrs. Knute Froysaa and Messrs. J. B.
Meyer and L. B. McMullen rendered
several selections and Miss Florence
Hedstrum very nicely sang three pa
triotic numbers. Major Hunt then
gave an exhaustive account of his
trip to France and what he knew
about the North Dakota boys and
their movements which was of special
interest to those who have boys cover
there" who were anxious to know just
how the boys were situated. Major
Hunt told them what he knew about
them and gave them to understand
that up to the time he left they were
all right and were being we'll looked
after. He saw Capt Richie, Capt.
Henry and others before he left. He
also stated that the first and second
regiment bands were making a hit
over in France. The talk was full of
things of interest and no doubt has
been the means of giving our people
some inside information of conditions
cover there" The program Sunday
afternoon was a success which in
large measure is due to the energetic
work of Secretary Moe.
