$500 for Armenian Relief Work

l.. N. Brown is chairman of the
drive which begins tomorrow in this
county to raise $500 for the relief of
the homeless and hungry Armenians.
Chairman Brown expects to raise the
quota assigned to this county in a
few days of real work and has already
selected a corps of assistants who
will aid him in soliciting.
The total to be raised in the United
States for Armenian relief is 30,000-
900 and those in charge of the drive
in this country figure that this sum
will be sufficient to relieve all suffer
ing and enable the Armenian people
to become self-supporting.
The Armenian people are perhaps
the longest prosecuted of any nation.
They have been victims of Turkish
persecution for a century past and in
the war just closed it is claimed that
onehalf of the Armenians in Europe
have lost their lives.

MAKING OVER vEL0URS HAT
Headeear That is Too Large May &c
Remade Into Latest and Pleas
ing Style.

A simple and effective way of max
ing over" large, questionable We
lours hat is to cut band perhaps an
inch and a half wide from the brim.
Then take this band and place it
around the crown, tying the ends in a
loose knot at the side or in the front,
as ones taste dictates. There is no
question of matching colors, and the
curve of the band makes the trim
ming" fit especially well.
If the hat is altogether too large,
cut the band rather wider at the back.
When the band is removed, a short
back poke is left. The wide portion Of
the severed band may be cut in the
shape of quilts, the edges neatly wired
The narrower part should be cut In
two or three strips and twisted
around the crown. while the "quills'
are placed in front.

The Cracking Remedy.

Women's shoes have a tendency TO
crack across the top near the toe, es-
pecially If the shoe Is q little longer
than the foot. Hair combings may be
inserted in the shoe, thus forming a
soft cushion for the toes and filling out
the shoe so that the leather will not
crack. 1t has been the custom with
many to use cotton for filling up the
toe of the shoe, but this soon becomes
hard, uncomfortable and useless.

out of the stations. Verst after verst,
hour after hour, the plain unwinds end

over the earth, fringing objects ghost
lily. Trees blur in the half-light and
grow phenomenally large; izbas and
windmills scrape the sky. A tremor
of primitive terror runs through ones
limbs. One calls to the hills for de-
liverance-but there Is not even a rise
in the ground! With midnight springs
up a delusive promise of respite from
the light; shadow creeps reassur-
ingly over the earth, but it is dusk
and not darkness. There Is no re-
prieve. At II the sun dips below the
horizon; at 2:30 1t balances again like

MILLS MAKES
GREAT SPEECH
TALKS HERE ON BEHALF OF NON.
PARTISAN LEAGUE
Plea Was Strongest Vet Presented for
North Dakotans to Come Under
SociaIistc Banner.

The address of Thomas Walter Mills
at the opera house on Saturday after
noon was greeted by houseful OF
farmers, among which there was quito
a sprinkling of our business men. For
two hours and forty minutes Mr.. Mills
held the audience and his sallics and
wittic!sms was much enjoyed by those
who heard him.
He came here under the auspices of
the Farmers Nonpartisan Political
League and is by far the strongest
disciple that has yet appeared before
an Oakes audience For forty years
Mr.. Mills has been on the lecture plat
form and has made a special study of
economic questions. A few years back
he travelled throughout Europe and as
far away as Australia and New Zea-
land. On these trips he got first-hand-
ed information of great colonies and
towns that had been built up through
the socialistic idea.
He enlarged on these ideas and
made them fit into the program of the
Nonpartisan League as adopted by MIR.
Townley and his assistants in this
state in 1915. He endorsed the Nom
partisan program and accepted it all
"root, stem and branch" His defense
of Mr.. Townley was adroit and put in
such way that the audience laughed
heartily while the brief was being
made. Townley was the Good Samar-
itan that came along and led the beat
en- farmer to the inn ana paid the bill
for did he not collect the 1852"
Mr.. Mills is a very interesting speak,
er. To carry out his plans would make
North Dakota veritable Utopia. To
this Utopia he would dedicate all tire
resources of the state; all its credit.
He would make the rich poor and the
poor rich. Place us all on common
level. A very nice thing to think
about when our pipe is drawing we'll.
but with the different traits If human
nature here 1t is doubtful. very doubt
full. if it could be pulled off just as Mr..
Mills pictures it. The people Of North
Dakota can not afford to place tire
credit of this great state in jeopardy

where WILD FOWL BREED
Hyperborean Region Favored
Spot Of Many Birds.

Until the acquisition of Alaska by
the United States 1t was q wonder
where certain wild fowl went when
they migrated from temperate climes
on the approach of summer as well as
snowbirds and other small species Of
the feathered tribe. 1t was after
ward found, observes writer in the
Kansas City Journal, that their hab-
itat in summer was the waters Of
Alaska-the Yukon river and the lakes
of that hyperborean region.
People wonder where the wild fowl
come from. They see the sandhill
crane, the wild goose heron and other
fowl every spring and fall pursue
their unwearicd way, but like the wind,
they do not know whence they come
or whittier they go.
Up on Golovine bay on the north
side of Norton sound, is the breeding
place Of these fowls. All the birds
in creation, seemingly, go to that coun-
try to breed. Geese, ducks, swans
and thousands upon thousands of sand
hill cranes are swarming there all the
time. They lay their eggs in the blue
stem grass in the lowlands.
Myriads of robins and swallows are
there, as we'll as millions of magnifl-
cent grouse, wearing red combs and
feather moccasins. This grouse turns
as white as snow In winter.
You can kill dozens of teal ducks
or grouse as fat as butter balls in a
few moments. The wild fowl and
bears live on salmon berries and
huckleberries, with which the hills are
literally covered,
