Miss Helena Hufaker Tells of
Her Y. w c. "A. Work at 81 Pdzo

As, 1000 Mexicans in the city. Even
hustling Fort Bliss, with it's thou
sands of regulars and Texas cavalry,
fades into the mere commonplace
beside these dark skinned neighbors
OF ours. This shift OF interest is
probably due to the fact that /
have passed the age most subject to
that dreaGs disease, 'khakiits.
Last week went down to the bridge
where the Mexicans come over from
Juarez. My cousin, DR.. Huffaker, is
quarantine inspector at the port, so
I went through the miminature,
Ellis Island and the s'de-lousing'
building. The passport is only good
for seven days and then the dreaded
procedure. The men and women
have separate rooms where they
remove their clothing, which is put
under hundreds OF pounds of steam
pressure, which renders it perfectly
sanitary. In the meantime the poor
being is being treated to sterilization
bath, and then his clothes are re"
turned to him. The Mexicans so
hate this process that they will wait
by the hour on the outskirts Of the
zone before they make up their minds
to go through with it. After the
cleaning process comes the meolcai
examination and then the. applicant
can enter the city, make his pur-
chases and return.
En- route to Ell Paso, Miss HuIaker
attended meeting Of all the war
workers for the southwestern dis
trict OF the Y. w. C. A.. which she
enjoyed very much, according to her
letter. Among the principal workers
who gave courses at the conference
were Miss Mary Louise Allen from
the national headquarters, Miss Sue
Weddell, a special worker in the
southwestern field and Miss Sue
Barnwell of San Francisco. Miss
Barnwell is an authority on immi-
grafton problems and she gave a
number Of suggestions regarding
border conditions. There is little
that can be done by the secretaries
at the local associations, and the
great hope is to train native work
ers, for work among their own peo-
pie.

An opportunity was offered Mrs:
Gushing to bring Nine. CALI Curci
to Fargo but as the one available
date placed at her disposal was early
in November, Mrs. Gushing felt that
the coming Of the famous Paris or
chestra-La Societe des Concerts du

ure, in the same month. should hold
first place, as the large out-of-town
patronage attending either event
would in many cases find it neces-
sary to make a choice. and thus
perhaps jeopardize the large guar
antee necessary to bring the orches-
ira, as a special treat to Fargo.
The distinguished Paris Military
Band, Gabriel Pares, conductor,
would also have been available for

only one Of the two French organi-
cations is permitted to visit any one

ADOPT NEW MODE
TRANSPORTATION

Wednesday, the first real pretty
day in many days, for more than two
weeks, during which period snow or
sIeet fell nearly every day, brought
a large number of people to town on
sleds, the new mode Of Transports
ton in this section.
Many br0ught in butter and eggs
and such country produce as had &C.
cumuIated during the protracted bad
spell, and the stores all did a good
days business, These people had
been shut i'm so long that they were
happy 10 get to town once more.
During most Of this long time there
was no rural mail delivery, and many
OF the telephone lines were out of
commission, and a great portion of
our rural population Was cut off from
the outside world, 80 TO speak.
However, all agree that the deep
snow, laying on the ground for so
long period, win prove an adyan-
tage later on in the crop season,
even If a draw back at this time.
