Dear Miss Grey: Wouldn't it
be a fine and patriotic idea to
convert the golf grounds In the
United States into war gardens
for the period of the war? Think
of the number of grounds in
the country, each containing Is
or 20 acres Of good soil.
Don't you think 1t would be
much more patriotic for these
business men who claim they
must play golf to get outdoor
exercise to WELD the hoe a few
hours daily instead OF chasing
those foolish little white balls?

about 1t, and one of them sug-
gested that we ought to go down

ROTARY CLUB WOULD
STOP USELESS NOISE
Petition City Officials to Enforce Ger
tain Ordinances More Rigidly to
y Enact Other Necessary Laws

The Minot Rotary club has gone on
record as favoring the restriction of
al unnecessary noises.
Minot is a busy bustling little city
and even with the present anti-noise
ordinances rigidly enforced, there will
be plenty of necessary activity to dis
turb the peace of our citizens to q
certain extent.
There is no excuse however, for op-
Grating cars with the cut-out open,
as is done every day on our streets.
It is presumed that the barking Of
dogs can be considered useless noise,
90 Fido must 60.
The members of the police force are
respectfully asked to cooperate with
the Rotary club in making conditions
more ideal within the city.
The Independent has heard express
sions from a number of the physi-
clans Of the city who declare that the
useless noise permitted in the city
disturbs their patients and really in
terferes with their examination OF
patients calling at their offices.
The following resolution was adopt
ed by the Club: ;.
At meeting Of the Rotary Club
Of Minot, held at the Leland Hotel,
Monday, Nov. 4, the following resolu-
ton was unanimously adopted:

John La Porte, Wealthy Rancher,
Made Defendant in Big Suit to be
Tried in Federal Court in
MinOt

The deposition was taken in Judge
Leighton's court chambers Wednes-
day, Of the testimony of C. W. Good
all of Mckenzie county, in the $780,
600 damage case brot by VIM. Black,
prominent Mountrail county ranch
er, against John La Porte, wealthy
ranchers who occupied Blacks 5000
acre ranch, one of the best in North
Dakota, situated on the Knife river,
a mile from Sanish., Goodall was on
his way to France where he has en-
listed in the Motor service.
La Porte occupied the Black ranch
for six years, until about year ago
when Mr.. Black took charge Of it
again. Black claims that La Porte
damaged 1000 acres of valuable
meadow by reason of running cattle
on it contrary to the terms of the
lease. He claims $4,000 damage.
La Porte is worth about 100000 and
is we'll able to pay this amount if he
loses the case. La Porte is now liv-
ing in Montana.
The case will be tried in Federal
court in Minot next month.

Whereas, a large percentage Of
the population of the city of Minot
and particularly the hospitals and
hotels, are being disturbed and annoy
ed by various kinds Of useless noises,
and
whereas, said noises are caused
mostly by the thoughtless and reck-
less drivers of automobiles, trucks
and motorcycles, and
Whereas, said noises caused by au-
tomobiles and trucks are due to their
being permitted to run with exhaust
or cut-out wide open, and
whereas, it is entirely unneces-
sary to have cut-out open when run
ming on the city pavements, there be-
ing no advantage gained in power.
'Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, That
the Rotary club goes on record as
suggesting and insisting that the city
officials pass the necessary ordinances
and have same enforced by the police
department, that all such unnecessary
and useless noises be eliminated.
"Be 1t Further Resolved, that the
city officials see that the speed regu-
lations are more rigidly enforced.

INTERESTING letter
FROM M|N0T SOLDIER
Chas. Geist Took Part in Battle Which
Lasted Three Weeks.
THOMAS HALL,
Secretary of State.

Chas. Geist son of Mr.. and Mrs
John Geist, superintendents of the
Ward county poor farm, has written a
very interesting letter, telling of some
hot battles in which he took part. He
says:
Somewhere on the Front"
Oct. y, 1918.
My Dear Mother and all at home:
l suppose you think am never go
ing to write, as it has been nearly a
month since my last letter, which l
believe was written Sept. II but when
you hear my little story (or at least
all that l can now telD I know you
will overlook my seeming negligence.
If have counted correctly. this makes
about my ninth letter to you from
France, as prior to Sept 17th I had
written you regularly every week and
you should have received them all un-
less some have been lost enroute. In
my last letter believe l mentioned
being at or near the front and-well
Mother-since then hae been so busy
that l have scarcely had time to eat
and sleep, in fact, days at time, I
have hardly known what sleep meant,
and then only for an hour or so at a
time, because during battle there is
time for little else but activity and one
sleeps only when he is so exhausted
that he has to simply "hop'' in the
mud, shell hole or any convenient
place. :
We first went into the trenches on a
certain so-called "quiet" sector but
believe me it wasn't quiet very long af-
ter our division took it over. In few
days we had made it so hot that
GERRY" started pulling freight" and
he surely did 60 some once he was
ousted from his Furnished" trenches,
which he had occupied for four years
and which, suppose, he considered
home. Have seen all kinds of prison
ers, clothing and equipment the Boche
left in his hurry to escape the "terri-
BILE Yankees"
In some instances we found in their
dugouts, meals in the course Of prep
aration and cigars and cigarettes half
smoked, which shows they evidently
made rather hurried and ungraceful
exit. One day during the drive they
rushed in division Of "Me und Colts"
Prussian Guards in an attempt to
stem the tide of battle and we had the
pleasure of chasing them back several
kilometers across devastated France.
When our division was relieved we
were still progressing and I am quite
certain that our successors are con-
tinuing the good work. From there we
marched to different sector where
we are now located, so this makes my
second battle front-getting to be
quite veteran, don't you think? +? How
ever, this isn't quite as likely at the
other, so we are getting little more
rest, even tho a few shells come over
occasionally. It's strange how accus-
toned one becomes to the sound Of
guns and shells, in fact, one pays lit
tie or no attention to them unless, Of
course. they begin to fall close and

Germany Employs New Tactics

But the Allies will probably attend

they get around to it.

alliance with that nation. The AL.

Germany is desperate and is willing to
take a chance. Germany's final hand
is seen in a meeting Of socialists held

which meeting was called "to rejoice
over the downfall of the kaiser. The
socialists laid plans for the downfall
of autocrats everywhere. They pass.

American government recognize the
