Splendid Meet

There was a large attendance at
the meeting of the Scandinavian w.
G. T. U. at the Pontoppidan church
Tuesday evening. Mrs. 0. S. Hade-
land led the devotional service, and
Miss Alice Duffy, Fargo's police
woman, gave an interesting talk,
taking as her subject, THE Influence
of Home, School, Amusement and
General Environment on the Life of
the Child, and the Parents Respon-
sibiltty For Local Conditions" Miss
Duffy laid special emphasis on the
environment and home training Of
the child as these two things form
the foundation Of the child's charac-
ter. A program Of musical numbers
was given. Miss Winifred Ulsaker
and Miss Esther Berntsen gave
piano selections and Miss Mildred
Berntsen and Lilly Dangness sang
a duet Say a Prayer For the Boys
Over There"
Mrs. UIrikka Bruun, who has been
conducting a temperance campaign
in Minnesota, was a guest at the
meeting and she made few re-
marks regarding the prohibition
movement in Montana. Mrs. Bruun
said that we're it not for the fact that
the women of Montana had obtained
suffrage before the campaign, the
state would never have gone dry.
The w. c. T. u, she said, was
the strongest factor in the dry cam
paign and they held meetings
throughout the state, interesting the
women. In some places, where the
women were ignorant Of the voting
laws, mock elections were held, so
that they would know how to pFe-
pare their ballots when the pro-
hibition measure came to vote.
Mrs. Bruun is now campaigning
in Minnesota and after short va
cation which she will spend with
friends at Shoreham, Mimi, will re-
sumo her work.
Rev. Mr.. Larson closed the meet
ing with prayer and a few encourag-
8 ing remarks.
A short social hour was enjoyed
and the hostesses, Mrs. I. H. Ulsaker
and Mrs Anna Johnson served
frappe and waters.

Still Shocking

There was demand this morn
ing for more men for shocking than
were available, due largely to the
fact that many Of the men are al
ready at work threshing. Farmer
cites, 16 unmarried and four married
women went out to work today on
the Barnes and A. T. Grover farms.
Yesterday a group of the farmer
cites shocked 100 acres Of grain on
the E. D. Grant farm, and the fol-
lowing girls shocked on the Steven-
son farm: Rita Robertson, Dora
Carlander and Waffle Stodder. Sew
eral parties Of business men went
out yesterday afternoon and one
group shocked so acres of barley on
the Theo. Schroeder farm. Most of
the cutting, except flax, has been
done but in many fields the bundles
have not been shocked.
