WORKERS URGED
TO ATTEND BIG .
RED CROSS MEET

Northern division officials have
sent to North Dakota and Northern
Minnesota Red Cross chapters an
nouncements regarding the confer
ences to be held in Fargo on Feb.
20. F. T. Heffelfinger. who is at th=
head of the Northern division, and
the chairmen Of all departments for
the division will be present, and they
are urging all people interested in
Red Cross work to be In attendance
at the conference, If at all possible.
1t is intimated that later on a sim
liar conference might be held here,
but a conference at this point would
depend altogether on the success of
the Fargo conference, so it will be-
this section to go to Fargo If possible.
The conference is not especially for
chapter chairmen or leaders Of Red
Cross work, but for every man or
woman interested in any way in Red
Cross work. Il
On Tuesday a similar conference
was held at Crookston, when some
500 persons, many Of them from
points in this state as well as Min
nesota, attended. From local people
who were present it was learned that
the conference proved Of great value
and inspiration, and for every person
who attended the injecting there was
something Of. interest. One woman
who devotes most all Of her time to
working for the Grand Forks county
chapter yesterday said that the only
disappointment for her in connection
with the conference was thai she was
not able to attend every one Of the
departmental meetings. That, OF
person, since the heads Of the differ
ent departments met various groups
of people, simultaneously, during the
afternoon hours.
1t is hoped that many of the Red
Cross organizations of this county
and others. throughout this section. OF
the state will send good delegations
and help to make the conference a
ompletel success. 4

taken advantage Of the opportunity to
have their children cared for while

that the women who are employed 40

children may be left while the moth

anxious to have women understand

the city that is especially for children,
where they may play. and be taken

STUFF

The test of a man is the fight he
makes,
The grit that he daily shows;
The wa he stands on his feet and
takes
Fate's numerous bumps and blows.
A coward can smile when there's
naught to fear,
When nothing his progress bars.
But it takes a man to stand up and
cheer
When some other fellow stars.
1t isn't the victory after all
But the fight that a brother makes
The man, who, driven against the
wall.
Still stands up erect and takes -.
The blows of fate with his head held
high,
bleeding and bruised and pale,
Is the mar who'll win in the by
and by.
For he isn't afraid to fail.
It's the bumps you get and the jolts
you get
And the shocks that your courage
stands,
The hours of sorrow and vain regret,
The prize that escapes your hands,
That test your mcttle and prove
your worth;
1t isn't the blows you deal,
But the blows you take on the good
old earth
That shows if your stuff is real.
