Thoughtless if not INSCRIPTIONS men,
have compelled the people of North
Dakota to act on momemtous. state
problems, when $4,000 or more Of
North Dakota's. voters are either in
France or in training camps.
Under the absent voters law every
soldier can cast his ballot in the No
vember election.
The boys in Khaki should not have
to consider NOW any matter that will
effect us but very little until AFTER
the war is over. We are working un-
der war orders now.
But this will be the future home Of
"our boys" and when economic dis
t%urbances affecting the future are
threatened, they have a right to help.
to decide what disturbances they shall
be BEFORE THEY GETBACK.
Fathers, brothers,, mothers, sisters,
relatives and friends can render the
State and nation a patriotic service
by helping the boys in this matter.
Send to the County Auditor of some
boys home county, his latest military
address, and request that a ballot be
sent to him. Requests of this kind
from several parties for the same boy
will be better than no request for SOME.
boys. Send a request for some one.
Then write the boy a letter telling
hlm that you have requested a ballot
for him and send him all the informa-
ton you can that will make it as easy
as possible for him to vote wisely.
Do it before: you sleep another
night.

Y. W. c. A. Helps French J
Munition Workers

Twelve social centers, or fOyers, az
they are called by the French, are run
by the American Y. W.. G. A. for girls
and women who are working in the
great munition factories of France.
Two of these are In st. Etienne and
three in Lyon. All have cafeterias
connected with them.
Girls and women who work in these
factories are of all classes and ages,
but all are French. The men en-
ployees are of every nation-Chinese,
Cingalese, Algerian, Moroccan and
Portuguese. Many of the women are
refugees. Multitudes have lost every
relative and friend. There are daugh-
tiers, mothers and grandmothers among
them.
These foyers are the only place ex-
cept the street that the majority have
In which to spend their out of work
hours. Barracks for sleeping, eating
and bathing are the only provision
made for the comfort of the workers
by the management of the factories.
j The women and girls meet their
men and women friends in the fOyers,
sew, write letters, press out their
waists, stitch on the sewing machines.
read and rest. The rooms are their
homes. Games and entertainment are
provided and educational classes. OF
the classes the English one are by far
the most popular.
All these foyers are sanctioned by
the French Ministry of War.

HARVEST THE CROPS
AND WHIP THE KAISER.

Hunger is the Kaiser's best weap-
on" The Y. w. G. A. believes it.
This is why it is making it possible
for high school girls in New York state
to help farmers In the fields; for COL
lege girls in the Middle, West to do
general farm work; for Polish women
In New Jersey to pick potatoes and for
boys and girls n the continent in
Washington to gather fruits.
All this work is. part of the cam
paign to "save the crops and beat the
Huns"
1t is the aim Of the Y. w. C. A. to
demonstrate the best ways Of housing
and feeding farm laborers and so take
the burden from farmers wives.
In all the places where women are
working under the: direction of the Y.
w. c. A. a house is provided for the
laborers, with a supervisor in charge.
The supervisors business is to- make
all business arrangements with TIE
farmers and provide the food. II chill

A corps Of %translators and inter-

are employed by the War Work Coun-
Gil Of the Y. W. G. A. They instruct
foreign-born women whose, husbands
have been called into the service in
such intimate questions as the laws
relating to rentals and labor, in the

American foods in dishes adapted to
foreign tastes and present high prices.
This last work is done in cooperation
with the Government Food Conserva-

Leaflets are sent out and articles

Officially it is announced that DR..
Stout declined to take the Valley City
position because he has elected to go
into war work. From other sources it
is declared that DR.. Stout refused to
accept the normal presidency Of the
institution because of the present I'M

In the meantime, Dr.. Mcfarland has

No announcement of the refusal of
DR.. Stout to accept the presidency of
the Valley City normal school has been
made from the administration sources,
and information concerning the pres
emit condition Of the normal school has
been deliberately suppressed by news
papers officially representing the a..-
ministration. Just what the purpose
of such suppression is, is not known
outside the select circle.
Locally it was generally understood
that President Mcfarland would con
tinue as the head of the institution
until his successor was elected and
ready to assume office, but if that
ever was the plan of the dominant
faction ON the board of regents, it has
been abandoned and President McFar.

the head of the institution he has ri.
loted for over rs years.
In Valley City it is generally under.
stood that N. c. Macdonald, state sup.

gineered the retirement of Mr.. McFar

! quarters that the board Of regents
acted a little more hastily than Mr.
Mcfarland had intended, the speed,

oughly dried, either in ovens or by the
sun, before they are shipped. There is
no reason, however for separating the
different kinds of pits and shells in
any way.
2. AS the season for collecting
these materials is short, the volunteer
service of automobiles and trucks
should be secured wherever possible.
3. The primary interest of the Red
