A HUGE SUCCESS
$2.21O.OO Pledged for Church Work
in 1918 as Result of Canvass
Thursday.

Last Thursday. April 4, the NJ. e.
church inaugurated the so-called
Disciplinary Plan for raising the
money needed for church work during
the year, and it proved to be huge
success. After the eighteen canvassers
mad had breakfast together at Z 80 a.
N. in the church they started out by
tWO,s to canvass the members and
friends OF the church for funds. Cars
were provided for those who were to
see the people in the country. By one
O'Clock in the afternoon the work was
finished and the canvassers returned
to the church. The combined result
was very gratifying indeed and show
ed that the sum of $2,21O had been
pledged for the support Of the various
church activities during the present
year. All worry as to where the
money is to come from to pay the pas
tors salary and other expenditures
and contributions was banished by one
great effort. Not only was the finan-
cial part of the drive a success. but

HAVE YOU INSURED
YOUR HAPPINESS?

Have you bought all the Liberty
Bonds you could?
You carry all the insurance your
finances allow, don't you?
You insure your life, your home,
your household goods, your business,
don't yOu?
But have you insured your happiness
and your right to live in the enjoy
ment Of your liberty?
Have you insured your children and
your childrens children against armed
invasion. against ruthless warfare,
against murder. rapine and terrorism?
Have you done all you can to make
their world safe?
Have you neglected to do all in your
power to strengthen the arm of the
government in its war on the ruthless
ness of autOcracy?
If you have, now is the time serious
ly to consider your duty to your
country.
America is fighting for her life for
her right to live as reason dictates.
America must win that battle. And
you must help to the limit of your
power
A Liberty Bond is the ammunition
available to every American. A mill
lion and a half American boys stand
ready to give their lives. They are
willing to give their lives to insure
posterity against the ravage Of the
Hun. Your sacrifice is insignificant in
comparison. You are asked merely to
loan your money to your government.
Your investment is safe. The return
you receive is Unreasonable. '=s~s--
You insure your happiness by buying
Liberty Bonds.
Buy now. Then buy again.

FARMERS URGED TO
PLACE WORKERS IN
DEFERRED DRAFT CLASS
IS NECESSARY TO
MAKE AFFIDAVIT
Useless to Later Make Protest if They
Fail to Seize the Opportunity in
Time, Says United States Employ
n1ent Service Statement.

The following statement has been is
sued by the United States Employment
Service Of the Department of Labor,
"A new draft of about 10000 men
shortly will be called to the cOlors.
The Provost Marshal General has or
dered that men actively assiduously,
and completely engaged in the plant
ing or cultivation of a crop but who
are listed in Glass 1 Of the draft and
within the end of the new quota
Must Make Affidavit.
The local draft boards, being judi
cial bodies. can not defer the call Of
such men, however, unless the farmers
employing them support their claims
for such deferred classification with
affidavits 1t is therefore of vital i'm
portance that farmers Immediately
execute and file such aftidavits with
the local boards.
Immediate Action Urged.
If farmers whose hands are affect
ed in this new call fail to follow this
advice, they should have no cause for
complaint if their men are taken from
them at this critical time 1t will be
useless and unreasonable later to pro-
test if they have done nothing to re-
tain their help. Immediate action on
the part of every farmer whose EN-
ployees are affected is essential and
sshould not be delayed under any cir
cumstances."

BOxville Farmers Club.

We learn that our club is constantly
growing in popularity, not only by it's
large and increasing attendance, but
by the flattering remarks we are want
to receive from any outside element
that chances to enter our club. We
feel a great pride in our club and the
work it's members are doing, but we
do not lose sight of the fact that a
great deal of our success is due to the
interest taken III us by this same out
side element.
We were especially fortunate at our
last meeting to have both Mr.. H. t..
Wood, Of Warren. and Mr.. John Hus-
by. the county agent. with us. Mr..
Wood delivered an address on the sub
ject so vital to our country at the
present time, ''The War;. He spoke
with a depth and sincerity such as no
one but a man Of his integrity can
speak. The earnestness with which he
expressed himself won the admira ton
of all his hearers.
Mr.. HUSKY, altho a stranger to a
great many of us, proved to be of a
very congenial disposition and, after
giving us short talk, we felt as tho
we had always known him.. We were
very glad to have him with us and
wish him to feel welcome to our meet
ings at any and all times.

day evening, April 10Th.

ing interest for 129 days -
The bonds are not convertible and

PIONEER WOMAN
VISITS WARREN

+ Mrs. Model, of Duluth. Mimi, ar
rived last week for a visit with old
time Warren friends. She was resi-
dent of Warren in the early days. be-
ing then the wife of E. Swanson. the
leading carpenter and contractor in
the early period of Warrens history.
Their home in Warren, built by Mr.
Swanson. and where they lived many
years, is now the parsonage Of the
Presbyterian church. They moved to
Duluth twenty-five years ago and there
Mr.. Swanson died of cancer fifteen
years ago, the widow remarrying three
years ago and is now Mrs Model
Daughter Anna is married and has a
home of her own and son. Atle E.
Swanson, who was a little boy when
they lived in Warren, is also married
and is the proprietor of a drugstore in
Duluth
Since moving to Duluth Mrs. Model
has gone thru many experiences of
life. Among other things, she has
taken care of a blind man in her home
for over fifteen years. He was Capt.
H. Eustrom, one of the prominent
early pioneers of Hallock and at one
time county auditor Of Kittson county.
The old captain was a member of Col.
Hans Mattson's regiment in the civil
war and had gained the title he bore
by service in the field. Capt. Eustrom
moved to Duluth many years ago and
became interested in real estate Then
blindness crept upon the good old man
and. during fifteen years he was most
tenderly cared for by Mrs Model in
her home. He died in January last at
the age of S5 years. In his will he
thoughtfully remembered Mrs. Model
with bequest Of $1,000 as reward for
her kindness in caring for him while
blind and feeble from the weight of
years. r. r.
Mrs. Model was surprised to see
how Warren has grown since she
moved away, 25 years ago. Her time
has been occupied in visiting friends
Of long ago, many Of whom still re-
main, though many have moved away
or now rest in the church yard yonder.
She intends to leave for her home to-
morrow.
