pEDER J. woLD OBITUARY

Peder ]. Void was born in NORWAY
January 11th, 1887, where he grew to
manhood. He immigrated to America
IN 1868 and resided in Dunn County
Wis, until 1870 when he again turned
his face westward and came to Dako-
ia. He drove team for the U. S.
Government for some time between
Forts Abercrombie and Pembina In
1888 he took up his former profession
that OF brickmaker, and started a
br1ckyard about one-half mile south
of this village. The excavation for
the clay is still visible, on the Chas.
Hanson land, on the west side of the
railroad track. He found the clay of
poor quality here and moved his plant
to Abercrombie in the fall of the same
year, where he operated it success
fully for a number of years.
iHe passed quietly away at the home
OF his daughter. Mrs. John Borgan, on
Monday, December End, of old age
and general debility.-Walcott Re-
porter.

ARE YOU A AQUITTERr

Have We any "quitters" in Wahpe-
ton?
The showing we make in the Red
Cross roll call is going to answer
that question.
While the war was on, and every
one was thrilled BY the glorious deeds
of the expeditionary forces, we had no
trouble making our qudta in any OF tie
war fund drives.
Now nDmes the dirty, tedious, tire
some task of "mopping up" We here
at home see none of 1t. but all the in
spiration has gone cut of the game
for the men in Europe and the men in
the camps in this country, to say
nothfng Of the hospitals. It is inst
stern. hard. thankless duty that faces
them. But they are Carrying on
and here ut home We mustn't quit" !"
The man or woman who says: "the
wars over, guess the Red Cross
doesn't need my dollar" ia both iGnor-
ant and a gutter" He is passing
on to somebody else his share Of the
unpleasant and tremendous task OF
cleaning up after the fighting has
ended.
OF course there are not many of the
"quttters" here in Wahpeton, but
overcoming inertia always requires a
tremendous amount Of energy. Ev-
cry name short Of the 100 per cent
mark on the Christmas Red Cross
Roll Call ought to be considered
black mark on Wahpeton's war rec
ord. The Red Cross is calling for 100
per cent enrolment. That's enough
for us. Let's give It.

livestock makes a greater working
