berships for the Nonpartisan league,
attempted to deliver an organization

EVENING.

Last evening there was another
ditorium. Being the evening of
Good Friday the audience felt the
Importance of the service. The spe-
cial musical features was a song by
the children, a duet by request, by
Reverends Smith and Mcbride, a solo
by Mrs. Runchey and a closing duet
by Reverends Smith and Mcbride.
The subject of the sermon was
Two Inquisitive Young Men" The
one who asked, What shall 4 do to
inherit eternal life?" and the other
who asked. Which is the first and
great commandment" Both these
young men went away sorrowful.
To one Jesus said, Thou are not far
from the kingdom; to the other,
lone thing thou lackest." The evan
gelist then went OIL to show that
these two statements combine in
many lives in the present day. There
are many people not far from the
kingdom, but just far enough to be
outside.
A number came forward at the
close to declare their intention to
live the Christian life. among them
some of the boys who went this
morning to the army camp.
Two great union services are to
be held tomorrow as follows:

tet. The town people are urged to
invite the country people to attend
this service and to tarry for the
evening meeting.
Great evangelistic meeting. 1880
d. M; subject, The Essentials of
Success in the Christian Life"
Splendid music will again be a fea-
ture.
The final meeting of the campaign

BOY SOMEWHERE
EFFORTS TO LOCATE PATRIOTIC
MITCHELL LAD ARE
FRUITLESS.

Mitchell, March 30.-No trace of
Fred Joy, the would-be sailor who
ran away from home March Is to
enlist in the navy, has been found.
Letters were written by Mr.. and Mrs.
w. b. Joy, the parents of the boy, to
recruiting stations in Omaha and
Chicago to apprehend the boy IL he
should endeavor to enlist there.
A lad answering his description
tried to enlist at Sioux Falls on
March 10, but was not accepted be-
cause the recruiting officer thought
he was too young. If permission was
obtained from his father, Fred would
be taken into the service, the officer
said.
AS Fred's pal, Edwin Anderson,
was bound for the Great Lake naval
training station, 1t is thought likely
the patriotic youth will make an eff
fort to get to Chicago, although his
parents aver he has not enough mon
ey to take him so great a distance.
There is no Joy here, 1t is all sor-
row." said an employe of the Ray
mond hotel Friday evening when
questioned about the missing boy.
Mr.. and Mrs. Joy have moved to
their home lear Forestburg after
waiting for over a week for news of
their son. Plans they had made ear
lier in the spring were dropped while
they were looking for Fred, but they
have left orders here to send Fred to
them il he should show up"

CLOCKS FORWARD
CLOCKS TURNED FORWARD IN
NIGHT-ADJUSTMENT ON
AN IDLE DAY.

AS congress could not command
the sun to stand still with any hope
of success, as Joshua did, they adopt
ed Mahomet's plan, and ordered that
the instruments for recording and in
dicating the suns positions be
changed plan OF changing records
which has been practiced by many a
man before when he found himself
in a difficult place. 1t was further
ordered that this be done in the early
morning hours OF Sunday, March
81, 1918.
A bulletin issued by Supt. Thurber
of the Milwaukee railway, orders
that at 2 o'clock tomorrow morning
all clocks of the system be made to
read 3 o'clock. Trains between ter
minals must, on reaching the first
open telegraph office, get running
orders, providing for their procedure
as one hour late. Probably in all
places where they are open for bust
ness during the night they will turn
their clocks ahead one hour at 2
o'clock. The First National bank OF
I Madison announces that the change
in the city regulator at the front OF
their place of business will take
place at 6 o'clock tonight. General,
ly speaking for the citizens of Mad
ison, business and pleasure for the
evening will proceed under the old
rnnuIaffnn IF tho tfnnnninnno nnd tha
change of the city clock is a matter
of more conveniently making the
change in daylight or business hours
With us in the west part of the
time belt the change will make little
difference in the saving of light
though ii will make some. 1t is in
the eastern part of the belt that II
will have it's greatest effect. IN that
more thickly populated territory, ex.
tending through nearly Is degrees Of
longitude. though all clocks record
the same time, there is now about an
hour OF difference In the sun time
between the east and the west limits
If IL is moor by the sui at Buffalo

some of us be getting out of bed in
the dark, while by the anne hour OF
clock time 1t will be broad daylight
In the eastern side Of the belt, and
the same in the evening. In the in.
dustries it will make little difference
as many of them operate "a hours a
day. But for the residences and the
fellow who works during the day and
aspires to the cultivation of anti-Ger-
man cabbages and war-Irish potatoes

MANY SCHOOLS ARE HOLD
ING SATURDAY SESSIONS

suspension Of schools during the re-
cent influenza epidemic in Texas. ses-
sions Of some of the schools are be-
ng held on Saturday at the direction
Of the school trustees and the teach
ers are required to teach without
compensation for this extra work.
according to information which he's
been received at the State Depart
ment Of Education.
Some Of the teachers have put up
the question TO the department as To-
whether or not the school trustees
have legal authority for requiring
them to teach the extra day with
out compensation There have been
some parents Of pupils also who have
asked If their children can be legally
compelled to attend school on Sat
urday In a number Of instances the
parents have their children at home
on Saturday in order that they may
help to do work on the farms.
The Attorney Generals Depart
ment has been asked for an opinion
on the matter. While no opinion he's
yet been handed down, the general
impression here seems to be that the
school trustees have exceeded their
authority in ordring the holding Of
sessions Of the schools on Saturday.
II is stated that the trustees appear
to be Of the opinion that since the
teachers nave been paid their regular
salaries during the suspension Of the
schools during the influenza epidemic
they should work without compensa-

caught up in their work.
