Out along the B. & o. is a
collie dog that races every
train that comes along. So
far he has been a constant
loser, because he lives at a
point that is passed at good
speed by all trains. But
some day slow freight
will come his way and he'll
beat it. Then he'll be happy
the rest of his dog life.
We. in our superior knowledge,
think the dog foolish to
waste his energy; and yet,
isn't he in better physical
condition for his other dog
duties because of having
matched his strength daily
against the speed of an
express engine?
Half of life is determined by
the point at which we aim.
Aim high, and you'll get
lot farther than if you
shoot low.
We're aiming to make this the
BIGGEST and BEST store
in Washington.

LIFT QUARANTINE
AT NORMAL MONDAY

The quarantine will be lifted at
the State Normal school on Monday
and all students will be permitted to
return I, We class rooms, according
to the :,.ti-1 of the Board of Health
announced yesterday. All students
who have been absent from the classes
during the quarantine are urged to re-
turn next Tuesday for the work OF the
second half of the term. In this con-
nection President Allen has issued =
letter in which he says in part:
"While you have suffered consld-
cradle loss because Of absence from
the regular class recitations, l hope
that YOU will not suffer a still great
er loss by remaining out of school tor
the period which yet remains OF TINS
,ern1. Your teachers will help you IN
every possible way to make up the
work YOU have missed, and they Will
be verv considerate in allowing you
ample time for bringing your Gre
dts this term, feel sure that you
will be able to do So"
There are no cases of influenza
among the students or the faculty
members, and it is expected that the
institution will operate next week un-
der normal conditions and with all
students who enrolled the first OF the
term in their accustomed places.

WILLSTILL
need THE MONEY

A number of letters from different
sections Of the country have come to
my desk recently, all asking:
"If peace should come early next
year will the war work agencies still
need this huge sum of money!"
The answer is, Of course, obvious to
anyone who has given the, matter
thought. The rehabilitation of a
great army is always slow and diff
ficult process Even after the Franco
Prussian war, which lasted only few
months, Rehabilitation occupied more
than year. The rehabilitation of
the huge forces in France and their
TRANSFORMATION to their own countries
is going to be a matter not of weeks,
but af very many months. When l
was in Europe the Canadian military
authorities stated that it would take
fifteen months to bring their army
home. No one has questioned that it
will REQUIRE full year or more to de-
mobilize our American forces.
And during those months, when the
tension of battle has been lifted and
discipline relaxed, there will be need
of the influence of the war work
agencies in redoubled measure. For
example, the educational programmes
which have been laid out, with the ap-
proval of the government, will turn
every hut in France into university
classroom and make those months of
readjustment months that will count
peramenently in the lives of our boys.
The American people will want to
mako generous provision, not merely
for the period Of the war, but for the
rehabilitation period as we'll, once
thew understand the need.

KINDERGARTEN
OPENS TUESDAY

With the lifting Of the quarantine
at the Normal school, the kindergar-
ten Of the training department will
open next Tuesday morning. Chill
dren who have reached their fourth
birthday and those who will soon be
four years old will be received in the
Kindergarten.
Miss Jeanette Mccoy will be in
charge of this phase of the Normal
schools work. She has made kin
dergarten work her major study and
has several years Of successful ex-
perience to her credit.
Since it was first organized, \e
kindergarten has been one of the
most interesting places in the entire
institution and it is anticipated t''at
more than ever it will continue to re
so. The institution wishes to call ':e
attention of parents of kindergarten
age to the fact that school will open
on Tuesday morning.

LIEUT.. Il. @. DUKE
TELLSEXPERIENCE

Lieut. H. 0. Duke of this place was
in the big American drive on the front
north of Verdun between the Meuse
and the Argonne forest. He was pro-
NOTED to first lieutenant after the bat
tle He wrote home after returning
from the front for a rest period a let
ter giving some of his impressions of
that most terrific fighting. The letter
is as follows:
Dear Mother and All: l know you
have all read Of the big offensive that
started Sept. 26, but did not know that
your son was one of the first over the
top at $3.50 a. m. on that date? We
fought, dug, cut and lodged for ten
long miles without stopping to eat or
sleep. Cur division was one of the
first line divisions and my company
one of the first companies to go for
ward.
''Mother, | cannot describe tit
was just awfu!-terrible! at ! 80 a.
m. Sept. 2G, our barIage started, and
the noise Of the shells shrcking thru
the ais--the awful roar of the guns
the bursting Of the shel!s--cannot be
described; it was too awful. We had
massed one Of the largest amounts of
artillery ever before massed for an
offensive. Then at $50 a. m. we in
fantry went over the top. During the
first hour, my friend and more than
chum, Lieut.. Cochran was killed. This
almost took the heart out Of me, but.
we had to keep right on and on, fight
ing the miserable, sneaking German
machine guns all the way. They do
not fight in the open, but hide and
fight like towards until they are sur
rounded-then like the ours they are
they holler "kamerad." Damn them!
For seven days | was on the front
line. He'll, dear mother-yes, and ten
times he'll on top Of that! My clothes
we're torn to rags, | have not bathed
for six weeks, I am unshaven, and
have been living in a hole Captain
Potter and dug in the ground.
"The:r machine guns we are able to
fight, but Oh, God, their artillery, with
their high explosive shells-all you
have with them is a prayer. We are
now we'll back Of the firing line, hav-
ing been relieved-wa:ting orders to
go either forward or back. | hope
back, fo~ that will mean the end of
the war.
"Our division, the 51st, did wonder
! ful work. Our men and officers fought
! like demons. ! cannot tell you about
our casualties. But we have the Ger
mans on the run. Well, have been in
and out, and the good Lord himself
guided me safely tnru. | am we'll, and
in command of our company while
Capt. Potter is away at the gas school.
[ am in X. Of c. hut writing this.
# you people at home only knew the
JOY it is to get into a Y. M. c. A. or
K. Of C. or Salvation Army, or Red
Cross rest hut after such a battle as
II have been in, you would all give
your last dollar to give us these COM
forts for God knows we need little
bit Of Heaven after being in hell over
there.-Your loving son, Hayden, lst

FLU QUARANTINE
WILL LBELlFTED

Whereas it appears that the inhu-
enza epidemic is materially abating
and that the cases recently reported
are of very mild nature, the Board
of Health deems it advisable to dis
continue the closing order heretofore
issues. closing the schools, churches,
etc.
Therefore be it ordered by said
Board of Health of the City of Valley
City, that on and after Monday, the
18th day of November, 1918, all the
public and other places closed hereto
fore may be reopened. The churches
may reopen on Sunday, Nov. II, but
not the Sunday school.
The Board of Health will suggest,
however, that the students of the
State Normal school and the Catholic
Parochial school, which have been un-
der quarantine during this closing
period, refrain from leaving the school
for their various homes and returning
to the school, at least not prior to the
regular term vacation.
The Board of Health will also ask
the public to refrain from dancing
parties and other assemblies, not con-
nected with the regular attendance Of
churches and schools and as much as
possible refrain from gatherings until
further order Of this board and until
it is more definitely established that
the epidemic is over.

MR. .CLASPILL
GIVES TALK

"The remotest place on the conti-
nent in these stirring days is not too
secluded to feel the world-thrill, and
to have part in the great movements
that are making the world~a better
place in live in, and alleviating it's
suffering" said Mr.. A. C. Claspill of
Oriska, recently. Mr.. Claspill has
been chosen by the North Dakota
State Sunday School Association and
the international Sunday School As
sociation, with headquarters in Chi
cago, as the leader Of a campaign
looking toward a Continent-Wide Sun
day School Visitation Day, December
1, when every Sunday School in North
America will be visited by repre-
sentative Of the Organized Sunday
School Movement, in behalf Of the suf-
fering thousands in Bible lands.
"Christian North America" said
Mr.. Claspill, sis being called on at
this time to pour out it's money for
Liberty Bonds and for War Service
activities Of every kind. 1t is res
ponding nobly. Another challenging
call, however, is sounding in the ears
Of the Christian people of North
America. 1t is the call of over two
million people in Bible lands-Armen-
ians, Syrians and Greeks of Asia
Minor.
'"These people, who are the hope
Of civilization in Western Asia, have
endured, and are enduring, such sl1f-
fering as our American minds cannot
conceive. They have been massacred
and deported. Men have been separ-
ated from their families and ruthless
ly murdered Attractive women and
girls have been sold as slaves or taken
by the Turks. The rest of the women
and children have been driven into the
mountains and the desert, and the
oath over which these refugees have
gone is strewn with the dead. In the
past two years over one million have
died from massacre, deportation, ex
posure and disease. But the dead no
longer challenge US; it is those who
live and can yet be saved.
'The ravages of war the past year
have added to the horror. The Turk
;sh armies have destroyed everything
in their wake. Four million people
destitute of home, clothed only in
rags, are facing the cold of winter and
starvation. Cnc million Of these can
be reached by relief agencies. Four
hundred thousand Of them are or
ohans. The relief agencies can do
| nothing unless North America fur

nishes the money.
""The land where Christianity had
it's birth is asking for a practical de-
lnonstration Of that Christianity now
All the denominations have united to
answer this call from the East and a
campaign has been launched to raise
two million dollars from the Sunday
schools of North America. Every
Sunday school is asked to give a
Christmas season offering to Armen-
ian and Syrian Relief work.
TO make sure that no Sunday
School is overlooked in this appeal,
the International Sunday School Asso-
citation is planning to have every Sum
day school visited: on December first
for the purpose Of explaining the
need. creating enthusiasm and pledg-
ing the schools to make as large an
Offering as possible. The Internation-
al Sunday School Association in this
campaign is working in cooperation
with the Armenian and Syrian Relief
committee in New York, and the Two
Million which they are to raise is part
of larger campaign on the part OF
the committee for thirty million dol
lars.
"The Armenian and Syrian Relief
committee have already done a Won
derful work in ministering to these
suffering people and have been enabled
to save thousands of lives. The com.
mite is directed by leading men Of
the continent and its work has been
highly endorsed by President Wilson,
and Sir Robert Borden. The Premier
of Canada, and by Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Taft. One feature Of the work Of
the committee is unique. It is enabl-
ed to devote all money collected for
relief work to the immediate cause
for which it is given. Expenses for
collections, printing, postage and ad.
ministration and the transmitting Of
funds, are met privately. Distribution
of ali supplies is cared for by the
American Consular forces and Amerl-
can missionaries, whose services are
loaned for thi sministry."
