Washington, D. G. Especial -Ac-
cording to report made to the United
States Public Health Service, the cpl
demic of influenza in Spain has al
ready caused an increase in the preva-
lence and deaths from pulmonary tu-
berculosis. A similar association be-
tween influenza and tuberculosis was
recently made by Sir Arthur News
holme, the chief medical officer of the
English public health service, in his
analysis of the tuberculosis death rate
in England.
In order that the people of the Unit
ed States may profit by the experience
of other countries Surgeon General
Rupert Blue of the United States Pub
lie Health Service has just issued
warning emphasizing the need of spe-
cial precautions at the present time
Experience seems to Indicate" says
the Surgeon General, shat persons
whose resistance has been weakened
by an attack of influenza are peculiar
ly susceptible to tuberculosis, With
millions of its people recently affected
with influenza this country now of
fers conditions favoring the spread of
tuberculosis"

Patriotism.

The most patriotic little boy in In
diana lives In Parke county, and his
first name is John. Now, Johns hair
has always been bobbed by his mother
for the reason that she liked it bobbed
instead of, as John termed it, "cut
by barber like a real boys" But
the other day John was six years old,
and as special favor received 80
cents and started TO the barber shop
for real hair cut"
Proudly he started on his errand. In
Is minutes he was back home, his
shoulders and head still held high, but
his little eyes showing the nearness
of tears. you'll have to cut my hair
again, mamma" he said bravely. THE
old soldier at the corner was selling

MlchaeInas nav

An old-time holiday falls on the
twenty-ninth of September. 1t is Mich
aelmas day, properly named the day
of st. Michael and All Angels. For
centuries it has been observed in Eng
land as a religious festival, although
now Its secular side is more thought
Of than ifs religious side. AS a rule
in England rents are paid, not month
ly but quarterly, and for generations
one quarter ends on Auchaelmas day.
1t Is, therefore, Il busy day with land
lords and tenants. 1t was also the day
on which the old towns elected their
magistrates and aldermen for the en-
suing year. 'The only other remark
able thing connected with the day,"
says an old authority on these mat
tiers, sis widely prevalent custom of
marking 1t with, goose dinner"

TRUST COMPANY
MUST SHOW COURT

HEAT FRANCHISE
Judge Amidon Declines to
Assume Jurisdiction
Over Injunction

The Old Colony Trust Co., New
York, mortgage OF the Union Light,
Heat & Power Co., which asks that
Judge c.. r. Amidon Of the federal
court set aside the injunction of Dis
trict Judge A. T.. Cole restraining the
light company from increasing its
rates for steam heat beyond the or
dinance rate, must show the court
that 1t has power to set aside con-
tract between the Union Light, Heat
& Power company and the city OF
Fargo.
So. Judge Amidon ruled after ex-
haustive arguments by opposing
counsel In federal court this morning,
when he adjourned the case until q
o'clock this afternoon.
Judge Anidon ruled that the claims
in the order had not been suestan-
tiated in his court, and declined to
assume jurisdiction over the findings
OF state court.
The trust company, in its order,
held that the fact that the light COM
pany was being forced to furnish heat
at loss ieopardize its security.
Judge B. F. spalding, assistant city
attorney, in his address to the court,
declared that as the light company 8
heat franchise was granted IN 4SoS,
the trust company In accepting 4ts
mortgage in 1915 was in possession
of all facts and could not reasonaoly
expect that q contract entered INTO
IL wears previous should be abrogated
inst because unforeseen conditions had
made 1t improbable.

Committee of War Organi-
zation Takes Step in
Welfare Work

S. R. Mccarthy, representing the
war department commission on train
ing camp activities, has been in Far
go week making a survey Of con-
ditions in Fargo in anticipation Of
the two units of the Student Army
Training corps which will be main
tanned at Fargo college and at the
agricultural college. Mr.. Mccarthy
has prepared his report and with rec
concentrations it has been forwarded
to the F'osdick commission.
Following Mr.. McCarthys sugges-
lions, a local executive committee will
have charge of the city work in the
interests of the soldiers and the fol-
lowing have been named by the exc
cuttve committee of the Fargo War
organization: Alex Bruce, chairman;
F. A. Clancy, vice chairman; RI b.
Newton, A. B. Clancy and DR.. M
MacGregor. This committee will have
complete charge Of all activities for
the welfare Of the soldiers in the city
Of Fargo, outside Of the camp life.
One Of it's first acts was to lease the
Y. M. C. A. building for Saturday aft
ernoon and Sunday, and during that
time the rooms will be conducted as
a soldiers club, for the exclusive use
of men in uniform. Soldiers will have
free access without charge to the
bathing pool, the gymnasium, the
reading and writing rooms. The COM
nittee also plans to have light re-
freshments served through the, aid
of church societies and social clubs.
Mr.. Mccarthy desires that all So
ciaI activities for soldiers be planned
through this committee including al
dances, dinners and other parties.
The committee on training camp
activities will arrange for the neces-
sary funds to carry on the work and
it Is probable that within short time
young woman worker will be en-
gagged to plan and arrange for the
parties that will include girls.
Mr.. Mccarthy will remain in Far
go until the community activities in
the interest Of the soldiers training
here are well planned and method:
for carrying them out are arranged
for.

Sunday, Sept. 29.-(Reuter's)-
Fighting along the new front north
west of verdun has settled down to
the dreary business to which the
machine gun has reduced modern
warfare.
Progress is being measured by the
laborious reduction of small points
which are held by small groups but
able to paralyze forces out of all
proportion to their fighting value.
From a dramatic viewpoint the
greatest fighting has taken place
in the Argonne forest where it re-
sembled a duel fought TO a finish in
a dark room The density of the
forest is complicated by the strange
ness OF the ground which resembles
nothing. so much as the backbone
and ribs of flat fish, with the ribs
on one side shortened to half their
length and the backbone running
north and south. These ribs repre-
sent series of ridges and ravines
which are almost perilously steep on
the eastern side but less abrupt and
longer further west. The ravines

would be sufficiently difficult If 1t
had been in the enemy hands only a
short time, but much harder since
he has been in possession Of it for

When the enemy had built a series

character Of the task may be I'M
derstood. But even more formidable
than the dugouts and trenches is
the wire woven endlessIy among the
trees. Hundreds upon hundreds OF
miles Of wire have been strung there
since two years ago. Through it has
grown weeds and grasses more than
three feet high, making the obsta-
Giles more serious by concealment.
