comforts furnished by the Knights OF
Columbus: Close by was'the Y. NJ. c. A.
hut which occupied an entire building.
This building, Mr.. Brown stated, had
been leased by Mrs. Vincent Aston of
New York, who turned it over to the
Y. M. C. A.. She herself is in charge
of the cafeteria where over 5000 meals
are served every day. Mrs. Aston
helps to serve the men their meals,
never complaining of the long hours
required of her.
The first place assigned Mr.. Brown
was a lumber camp in southern
France where the United States had
several companies of men cutting
trees and turning out finished lum-
ber These camps had not been pro-
vided with Y. NJ. G. A. huts and it was
Mr.. Browns work to establish them
and provide entertainment for these
men. He established six huts at the
six camps and from various cities, in
France obtained pianos for each hut.
Regular programs were arranged for
each evening of the week and the
huts were crowded at all times.
Mr. Brown was transferred to the
front during the month of July just
at the time the American marines
were brought up and stopped the
German drive on Paris. He told Of
his experiences in Paris and how the
Y. NJ. CA. secretaries assisted in
helping to care for the wounded men
as they were brought there for medi-
cal attention at the hospitals. The
men were transported to Paris in rail
way cars and motor ambulances and
many OF them were compelled to wait
twenty-four hours before they could
be attended to. Doctors and surgeons
worked night and day without rest to
give the boys care. Mr.. Brown stated
that not once while he was at this
great hospital did he hear an Ameri-
can boy complain Of the treatment be-
ing accorded him.
Mr.. Brown was assigned to the
Chateau-Thierry district and follow
ed the gallant American fighters as
they pushed the Germans. back mile
after mile During the month of July,
said Mr.. Brown, Y. M. c. A. workers
distributed $4,000 worth of choco-
late to the soldiers in this district.
1 ue SpcdhcI gave oouic SCly SAdpA-
ic descriptions of memorable battles
fought during July and August and
the important role the Americans
played. He told how our boys fought
for twentyfour hours without food
and in some instances where groups
Of them had been cut off from their
comrades and were without supplies
for three days. The fighting was so
intense that the field kitchens were
unable to visit the area back of the
fighting line only during the night. At
all times Y. M. CA, Knights of Co.
lumbus and Salvation Army workers
were right with thesboys,9 doing what
they could to assist them.
Mr.. Brown had with him number
of very interesting war trophies that
he exhibited American and German

The parade formed at the court
house square and promptly at $3.50
o'clock when the siren fire alarm at
the light plant blew the procession
started amidst the blowing. Of whistles
and ringing of bells, while the partici'
pants yelled and shouted until their
Threats were hoarse. The parade
headed east on Broadway, turning
south at the Hotel Denison corner
then east on Chestnut street to Lo.
Gust, then north to Broadway, march
ing one block east, then north and
west to the federal building. From
the federal building the procession
went north on Main street to the
Naeve residence, returning to the
court house square where 1t dis
banded.
Speeches at Court House Square
At the court house square a big mo-
tor truck was driven up on the lawn
and was used for the speakers stand.
Judge Conner called the meeting to
order and briefly stated the purpose
of the, celebration. The Denison band
then rendered several selections.
A number of brief patriotic speech
es were delivered by our citizens,
those speaking being Rev. Boyd, Rev.
Father .Farrellyi Rev. Frese, Sears
McHenry, G. L. Caswell, George Naeve
and l.. w. Powers. ~.
Carnival of Fun at Night
A decided change was apparent in
the department of the jewellers in the
evening. The carnival spirit prevail
ed and everyone seemed bent on max
ing as much noise as possible. Tin
ware of every description was resort
ed to and it resulted in bedlum OF
noise.
A huge bonfire was started on Main
street out in front of the Main candy
kitchen. Auto trucks were kept busy
throughout the evening replenishing
the fuel and we doubt if there is an
empty dry goods box or loose piece
Of wood in penison today
The banA was on hand again and
they played throughout the, evening
while the, celebrators marched about
the fire shouting and rafting tinware.
Later in the evening the young
folks enjoyed a dance on the pave
ment. Corn meal was used to smooth
out the rough spots in the concrete
and dancing was in order until almost
midnight. Some of the more particu-
lar danced in the vacant store build
ing belonging to ]. w. Miller, Jr.,
where Victrola furnished the music.
After the band broke up Frank Lister
brought out one of his player pianos
onto the street and furnished music
for the dancers there. a-...r s. g..

firnned by the Associated Press.

Word has been received here of the
death Of Allen E. Palmer, which ;oc-
cured at his home in Rainier. Wash,
Aug %, 1918. Mr.. Palmer was for
merly resident of Crawford county.
Mr.. Palmer had been suffering with
high blood pressure, and had received
treatment from some of the finest
specialists. At times his condition
seemed greatly improved. so that his
friends were encouraged to believe
but again he would suffer relapse.
In 1881 he was married to Sarah
Ellen Cook at Denisop, and to them
were born three S ons and two daugh-
ters. In 1892 his first wife died and
two years later he married Mrs. Eliza
beth Hurlburt Walker, who survives
him, together with one son, Lloyd A.
Palmer, of Rainier, Wash: two
daughters Miss Ellen Palmer, of Ma.
nilla. and Mrs. Marie Palmer Cham
berlin, OF Belmont, Iowa.
Funeral services were held at Rain
Ter, Wash, and interment made in the
cemetery at that place.
On another page of this issue of the
Review will be found the statement
of the condition of the First National
bank of Denison at the close of bust
ness on November list. The showing
made by this we'll known banking in
stitution is exceptionally good, the
total footing amounting to almost two
million dollars. Denison may be just
ly proud of its banking institutions for.
nowhere in the state are there to be
found three stronger institutions than
those we have here in our; city. These
banks are all ably and carefully man
aged and even in the stress and UNI
usual conditions due to the war, they
have been able to keep we'll to the
front. -.

Point of Law

100000 Capital Increase

WOULD GET UNDER CHEAP

A difference of opinion exists be-
tween Secretary of State Hall an !
Assistant Attorney General Cox as to
the right of the Equity Packing Plant
Co. of Fargo, million-dollar co POI
alton which purposes to soon in" ease
its capital to $3,0O0,0O0 to avail itself
Of an act Of the last regular assembly
designed to relieve associations of 25
or more whose capital does not exceed
$4,000 of some of the expenses i'm
posed upon ordinary stock-company
corporations.
P. M. Casey, president, and l.. c.
Hoopman, secretary, under date of Oc-
tober 20, filed with the secretary of
state al declaration to the effect that
at a special meeting Of the stockhold-
ers of the Equity Packing Co., held on
that day majority of the st0ckhold-
ers either in person or by proxy voted
to accept the benefits of chapter 81 of
the session laws Of North Dakota for
1917. II
An examination of the records in
The secretary of states office proved
that this company was Incorporated
under the general corporation laws
an dthe secretary of state advised
President Casey that the declaration
could not be accepted. The matter
was then taken up ,bYe the packing
company's attorney, Judge s. L. Much
OILS, with the attorney generals office
and an opinion was procured from AS
sistant Attorney General Cox holding
that the Equity Packing Co. was with.
in the classes of corporations de-
scribed in Sec. lG of Chapt. 81. Ses-
sion laws of 1917.
This appeared to be in conflict with
an opinion given by Attorney General
LANCER on August 27, 1917, when the
Wales Farmers Elevator Co. at
tempted to file similar declaration
in which the attorney general held as
follows: "To permit a corporation to
change fits class by amending its ar
ticles Of incorporation simply because
the changes to be made therein are
few in number, and of slight import,
nahce, would establish a predeHent anc

opinion by Edward B. Cox, assistant
attorney generalS and certificate of in
c ease of capital stock. This company
was incorporated with seven incorpor-
ato with an authorized capital of
81 900 900, and in it's articles does not
provide for the distribution of profits
to it's customer Mr.. Cox in his opin-
ion says: 1T is my opinion, therefore,
that the Equity cooperative Packing
Co. comes within the purview Of Sec.
16, Chapt. 81, session laws of 1917,
as a cooperative company which at
tempted to organize and do business
under prior statute providing for
the organization of cooperative COM
panies, and, as such, upon filing with
the sec c~etary of state the written
declaration therein provided for, and
the payment of the proper fee, is en-
titled to &C me under the terms Of said
chapte and to receive it's benefits and
be bound by it's provisions
The writer" continued Secretary
o. State Hall in his letter to Judge
.Nuehols, "confesses his inability to
understand how even individuals can
attempt to constitute themselves amy
number of persons not less than rs.
(See. Sec, 2. Chapt. 80, Session Lay ws
of l9l5.) Neither does he understand
how a company may be a de facto CO.
operative corporation with an author
lied capital of $1,0OO.000 when the law
specifically states that the capital
stock of cooperative corporations
shall not exceed $4,000. (See Sec.
4606 Compiled Laws 1879.
"This company proposes to increase
to SO 100000. The fee for such in
crease under the general corporation
law, Sec. 45O9, Compiled Laws 1913,
will be $1,000, and in addition thereto
a Sc fee for filing amendments and
issuing certificate. The fee under the
cooperative law, Chapt. 81, Session
Laws 1917, is SIS for fling the amend
ment."
1t is understood that the company
now proposes to bring an action in the
courts to force the secretary of state
to accept and file their amendments
and to issue the certificate under the
cooperative law, while the secretary
of state contends that he is not per-
mitted under the several sections to dc
this. It is likely that sufficient mum.
ber of the directors will give their
consent to have the case tried in the
courts, all of which will be pleasing te
the secretary of state, who desires tc
know just what the several sections
of the law demands Of him in situa
