SOUNDS MORE LIKE NORTH
DAKOTA.

Refreshing as a summer shower,
are the resolutions drafted and
adopted by the new North Dakota
war conference.
There was no reference to big
Biz.
There was no mention Of the
'kept press or Of profiteers.
There were no IFS" and "buts'' to
the resolutions.
There were no conditions and
provisos.
There was no holding back to see
what the other fellow was going to
do.
Every citizen should read those
resolutions. They call upon every
citizen in the state to work for the
utmost limit of production on the
YARNS. and they don't mention any
conditions that must be fulfilled
nrst.
They urge every citizen to work
for q greater production Of Ignite
coal and there is no demand for
concessions.
They pledge support of the fuel
and food conservation movements,
md not a word about waiting for
eomebody else to do his share first.
They pledge unqualified support to
the Red Cross, Liberty Loans, Y. M.
q. a.. y. w. G. A., knights of Column
bus. Four Minute men and all other
war activities.
They are a pledge to win the war,
whatever the sacrifice.
Thank Heaven for such resolutions
as those! They sound more like
North Dakota than some others that
have been adopted in the past. The
Forum feels like taking of its hat
md proposing three rousing cheers
Tor the men who drafted them and
adopted them. The Forum believes
that those resolutions are but one

ALL Want TOLEAD

AppOrtionment of Representa-

Washington, July 10.-All the allies

which will accompany the American
allied economic mission to aid Russia.
How to divide the apportioument
and keep peace and contentment in
the international family is one If the
big problems President Wilson and his
advisers are now disentangling.
Britain wants to share equally:
France realizes that she and America
are perhaps the best liked by Rus
slams; the Japanese should be heavily
represented as one of the most inter-
ested of neighbors.
Thus goes the friendly discussion
But the settlement OF tie basis II rep

such a family are intr-eately balanced.
The whole problem is authoritative
" analysed thus:
Russia must lie united within her.
self. Then she must be united against
the Germans The armed force ac-
conpanying the mission will take the
place of propaganda which has failed
because many Rus slams do not read.
1t will be the business of the propa-
ganda-police to eXemplify and teach
the aims of the entente, to inspire the
Russians to unite among themselves
and get order out of disorder. Once
organized they must be inspired to
unite against Germany and re-estab-
lsh an eastern frontier.
Unity without supplies is regarded
useless. Hence, the mission must help
them esta blish supplies and this means
construction of ordnance factories; re-
organization of agriculture and so on.
II appears a long task. But if it can
succeed, it cheats Germany of her
spoils and gives Russia a fresh up

COUNTRY CLUB LOYAL
Another Winter of Coalless Club
House Is Promised Here.

Members of the big Country club
associations thruout America are ar
ranging to close the clubs for the en-
til winter season, beginning with the
first appearance of cold weather, and
givi 6 their parties in their homes.
This plan is made for patriotic rea-
sons, as it is intended to save a large
amount of coal.
The Topeka Country club has been
practicing that plan for a long time,
Il. A. Thrill, one of the officers of the
club, explained. After the begin
ming of the cold weather. he said,
the club is closed so far as it's social
uses are concerned. We keep a care
taker there all winter, but he heats
only one room of the house. 1t is
necessary to have the house occupied
on account of the insurance and to
prevent deterioration of the property
When the members go out to the club
for an indoor picnic or a coasting
party, the parlors are heated by the
crate fire which is built of wood be-
longing to the club grounds. So there
is no extra consumption of coal for
winter parties at the club. The larger
clubs turnout the country have pre-
viously maintain. ed their cafes all win
ter and regularly given dancing and
other parties at the club houses"
