Bedding Greatly Needed By
Visiting Nurse In Caring
For Many Influenza Patients

Many of the homes in Fargo in
which influenza is present are in
need of bedding, sheets, pillow cases,
and also towels and washCloths and
Mrs. S. G. Bliss, visiting nurse, to-
day made appeal to the Fargo public
for help in this detail.
There are many households in Far
go that have had help from the Wis
iting nurse and from volunteer nurs-
ing aides. With several members of
the family sick the drain on. bedding
is heavy with perhaps not too large
supply to begin with, and a clean
fresh bed is one Of the essentials in
aiding a prompt recovery.
Charity should never end at
home" said Mrs. Bliss this morning
but it is a good place for 1t to
start. We are greatly in need Of
sheets and pillow cases, towels and
wash cloths. The problem of keeping
bed fresh and sweet is difficult at
best even with large supply of lin
on TO draw upon and there is not
much encouragement in bathing a
patient and putting him back into a
soiled bed. If the bedding cannot
be spared for an outright gift, il
people will mark 1t plainly, we will
have it Numbered and returned after
this epidemic. We also need cotton
blankets. Any bedding contributed
may be left at the rooms of the
Public Welfare association in the
Edwards block and any who do not
wish to go up stairs may leave their

GERMAN PEACE IS
NOT POPULAR IN
RI MANIA; MANY
WRECKED
Country Is Spared Bel
GUMS Fate, But Many
People Suffer !.

London, Sept. 20.-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press)-'What
a German Peace is Like" is the head
ing on an article, written : for The
Weekly Dispatch by Annie Parr, who
has just arrived in London from
Bucharest.
81 was in Bucharest, when the
Germans entered the Rumanian cap
ital," she writes. "They had evident
ly decided that it would not be wise
to shock the world with another Bel
GUM, and they were careful to keep
their troops under control, but they
were the masters. I remember
male friend of mine who was re-
clothes being stopped in the sreets
in the middle Of the winter and COM
PEELED to sweep away the snow for
hours in the bitter cold. ~
Many a beautiful home was
wrecked. The Germans had no
scruples about converting drawing
rooms into stables for their horses,
and front gardens into cemeteries
for their dead.

turned, and they were in an appalling
condition. They were skeletons,
scarcely able to walk. AT the sta
ton they seemed too weak to eat or
drink. When we offered them food
they simply sank down onto a bench
and burst into tears.
"It was a, most tragic home coming
for the Rumanian soldiers, following
upon the crushing peace terms. 1t
has left on my mind an unforgettable
impression of what German peace
is like. Those soldiers came back
in rags and half-starved to homes
that had been reduced to poverty
They had to witness in silence the
insolent bearing of the German sol
diery in their streets. The officers
were told they would either have to
salute the German officers or take
off their uniforms. They preferred
to take off their uniforms.
There are still plenty of German
soldiers there looking fat and we

Here is a stunning conservation
suit which is patriotic although
elaborate. Since wool is tabooed by
the real American woman heavy
silks and satins will be popular for
wear throughout the coolest months
Fur will be used extensively for
trimming as it adds warmth to these
stlken materials.
The suit pictured shows a pleas
ing combination Of two "wool-Iess"
fabrics. Satin and velvet together
make the suit very appropriate for
dress or formal wear, and the elabo-
rate fur trimming adds richness and
warmth. The distinctive feature is
the coat with its velvet panel back
and front reaching almost to the
bottom and edged with fur. In the
back the panel hangs free from the
wide crushed velvet belt but in the
front it is gathered in forming a
graceful waistline. The body of the
coat is Of heavy satin heavily braid
ed while the skirt Is of plain satin
with fur about the hem. a
Note the hat with its abbreviated
brim at the left side and the spats
Of fawn color which match the hat.
This matching of shoe-tops, hats and
gloves is a new fancy which is
very pleasing to the eye-but hard
on the war time purse.

ARE
HEAVY LOSERS
Vessels Worth 100000
Sunk By Hun Sub In
North Atlantic
(By Associated Press. }

Glouchester, Mass, Oct. 11-"Give
us a suitable measure of protection
and we will keep up the food fish
supply so long as there is one vessel
left af1oat in the North Atlantic" is
the answer of Glouchester ship own
ers and fishermen to the German
submarine raid on portions of the
North Atlantic fishing fleet in July
and August
If the enemy planned his descent on
these helpless craft for its psycholo-
gical effect he certainly achieved his
aim. but the effect was the opposite
from what he sought. Instead of be-
ing intimidated by the sinking OF
many OF their vessels, the salty mar
liners of Glouchester-and this is true
of other parts as well-have set their
teeth and by word and act have
shown their determination to con-
tinue business as usual"
In the period covered by the raid,
from July % to August rs, 20 fishing
vessels were sunk by the Germans,
some bv shellfre, others by bombs,
and at least one, according to its cap
tain by a. torpedo. A part of the
feet was sent to the bottom by the
trawIer Triumph, which was seized
by a German submarine and provided
with crew and armament. The fishing
craft ranged in size from the tiny Re-
lance, OF 10 tons, one Of the sword
fishermen sunk on the Georges Bank,
to the Eric, OF 600 tons, sent down
south of the Island OF Miquelon, far
TO the northeast of New England
waters. Most of them were Of Amer
lean registry, chiefly owned in Glou-
chester or Boston. but a few hailed
from Canadian and Newfoundland
ports, principally Lunenburg, N. S.
The sunken vessels totalled S,616
tons,with an estimated value of more
than 100000. The insurance which
the owners were able to collect was
little more than so per cent Of this
Moreover, the replacement cost, under
present conditions, would in many
cases be more than double the amount
which was required to build these
craft IT is figured, that a'vessel which
cost $4,000 a few years ago could
not be. replaced now for less than
S35 900.

Dinner Stories

A travelling man with headquar-
ters in Columbus and who makes
many villages in Ohio, tells the fol-
lowing about a small town in the
southern part of the state: ~
'I got up one morning, and, of

room, just because was in a hurry.
A jovial fat fellow was sitting across
from me at breakfast and when he

sore about the towel, he said:
What's the matter; sleep well?'

The most determined effort made
by the. enemy was on the left across
the river Aire between ST. Juvin and

in open order and fought with a
steadiness that indicated fresh
troops. Within an hour, however,
the American artillery supporting
the line OF infantry with machine
guns had brought the little offensive
to half.
