& WILL NOT HOLD MEET

Mrs. W. A. Mcintyre returned last
night from Fargo, where she attended
! meeting of the executive board Of
the State Federation Of Women's
clubs which was held there on Tues
day evening in the parlors Of the
Gardner hotel. It vas decided that
the annual federation meeting will
not be held in this city as had been
planned, owing to the influenza cpl
demic. The spring meeting of the
executive board will be held In Fargo
during February.
The election Of president of the
federation was to have been held at
the 1915 meeting but at the unani-
nous request of the board, Mrs.
Henry Wick Of Cavalier consented to
retain the office until the next annual
meeting. .
Mrs. w. A. Mcintyre rendered her
resignation as vice president of the
First district, and Mrs. Fred Conklin
resigned lei position as vice president
of the Eighth district.
The vacancies in various districts
were filled by the election of the fol-
lowing vice presidents! First district,
Mrs. e. w. Cunningham, Larimore;
9Th district. Mrs. w. E. Hopes, Car
rington; 9Th district, Mrs. C. A. Finch,
LaMoure; 9TH district, Mrs. Mark F.
Jones, Beach; 8th district, Mrs. j. H.
Davidson, Mercer.
It was voted to continue the quar-
terly bulletin Of the club and to make
an effort to feature three departments
in each issue.
A most interesting fact was brought
out at the meeting concerning North
Dakota's share in the work in the
~'furlough" houses in France. North
Dakota is entitled to send two work
ers to France. This work has been
organized BY the National Federation
of Women's clubs, who have raised
$4,000 900 for that purpose. North Da-
kota contributed approximately ss,-
009. The work carried on in the
"~furlough" houses is suggested by the
name. Each building has five women
workers, one the hostess, one an en-
tertainer. The two representatives
from North Dakota will be selected
from the applicants by the board of
the State Federation of, clubs. Women
who desire to enter this Work must be
between 25 and 80 years OF age and
are barred if they have a brother or
husband in the service. All applica-
tions must be in the hands of Mrs
Wick on or before November 81.

solute sway of King Ferdinand has
been broken and that the people OF
the country are behind the demand
that Bulgaria surrender before the
Allied troops invade her territory
further. Serbian cavalry is reported
within fifteen miles of the Bulgarian
frontier.
Turkey May Follow Example
This sensational development opens
up a new phase of the war. If
Bulgaria makes peace with the Allies
her example. it is probable, will be
promptly followed by Turkey, whose
army in Palestine has been de-
stroyed and who has little hope, APP
parently. of further help from Ger

Thus the iron ring about Austria
