CALERA EASILY
 GOES OVER TOP

TO the Editor of The Age Herald:
 Our sister town, Calera, is taking stock
 of it's Americansm and feels justly proud
 of herself Although outclassed in popu-
 lation by Columbiana. Montevallo,
 Shelby and Vincent, it was in the lead
 in it's subscriptions to the third Liberty
 Loan, with it's s31,00o, by q considera-
 ble majority. It's Red Cross chapter
 contributed more than s2oo0 in the re-
 cent drive for the Red Cross. And on
 Memorial day, last Thursday, we doubt
 if there was town in Ala which
 more completely observed President Wilson's proclamat ation. Every place of business in town was closed, and the 1 people lasted and attended religious services at the churches You couldn't buy cigar or soda water Rich and poor. black and white. observed the occasion--but there are no rich folk in Calera, Rev. J. A. Wales and Dr. $. D. Motley had charge of the exercises.
 In the afternoon there was flag raising in the square. large red. white and blue pole had been erected and both the American flag and the towns honor flag were raised. There was spirited contest between the friends of Miss Marian Eason and Miss Jessie Martin as to which should have the honor of raising the flag. Miss Ea- son won the honor by majority of several hundred votes, though the onn- test was q close one. The price of vote was only l cent, but enough of them were cast to yield the School 1ni- provement league of Calera s94. Miss Marian Eason is the lovely daurhter of our popular townsman. MT. W. r. Eason. onr former mayor. Calera has come to be proud of it's | AmericaniSn.

AS you doubtless know, your son and
Messrs. Anderson, Pfusch, and Baar-
stad, all of Valley City, N. D., COM
pose a quartet in Company G, 164th
Infantry. l asked this quartet some
ten days age if they would sing at
some of our church services and en-
tertainments and to this they read
lily assented, and accordingly they came
into town last Saturday afternoon
and were entertained for supper at
the home Of one Of the prominent Of
fcials of our Church. They were then
brought to the church to assist in an
entertainment for the soldiers, provid-
ed by the young people of the church,
and the quartet sang to the great de-
light of those present. At the church
service on Sunday they sang the VOL
untary' to the great pleasure of a
large congregation. After the church
services I took them, and also Mr..
Martin, one of their friends, to my
home and entertained them for din
ner. They remained with US for sew
eral hours, and then we carried them
to the Young Women's Christian As
ISOLATION building, where a Sunday
afternoon sociable was in progress,

GOOD NEWS FOR
DAKOTA PARENTS

Northwestern Christian Advocate:
The Rev James Anderson, superin-
tendent of the Fargo On. d. District,
recently received letter from Mr..
Charles W. Tillett, prominent law
yer in Charlotte, N. c., inspired by
personal contact with the son of Mr..
Anderson, Cuyler, who is a member
of Camp Greene. The contents will
be of interest to North Dakota par
ents, since many Of the boys Of that
state are there for the present.
Among other things he says:
4 feel it not only great pleasure,
but an absolute duty to make known
in some way to you, and through you
to the people of your section, the very
high esteem in which we have learned
to hold the soldiers who have come
from your section to Camp Greene in
the suburbs of our city.
81 had the pleasure a week ago of
meeting your son, Mr.. Cuyler Ander-
son. Learning that he was the son Of
Methodist preacher, and being my
self also the son of Methodist
preacher, l was first drawn to him by
this bond, but later more particularly
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1918-01-03

with some religious service. Here the
quartet sang again.
81 give you this somewhat in detail
that you may see not only what your
boys are doing for us, but in some
measure what we are trying to do for
them. We enjoyed every moment of
our association with them, and I was
delighted to have them in my home.
'"The same night that our own
church (Tryon-street Methodist
church) was having the socable for
the young people, referred to above,
several other of the large city
churches had the same character of
entertainment, and the soldiers were
invited to met the young people of the
city and have some light refresh
ments. Hundreds and perhaps thous-
ands of them responded, and every
where there seemed to be pleasure and
gayety of an innocent and helpful
kind. 1865
"But, really, the main purpose Of
my writing this letter is to tell you
what magnificent fellows you have
sent US from the Northwest. To be
perfectly frank with you, l must say
that we were somewhat apprehensive

BOWMAN POSTMISTRESS
LOSES GOVERNMENT JOB

Bowman, N. D., Dec. 31.-President
Wilson has declared the Bowman post
mastership, recently held by Mrs. Lii
Ian Totten, wife Of County judge D
b; Totten, vacant: The post pays ST.
900 per year and candidates for the
JOB will be examined at Lennon, S.
D., January 9, 1918. Under the new
civil service regulations, the successful
candidate may hold the position for
life, unless removed for cause.
Lillian Totten leaped into the lime
nght last summer when, while all
Bowman was boiling with indignation
over the address delivered by Mrs,
Kate Richards O'Hare at the Cosy
tneater, Mrs. Totten called on the wo-
man at her hotel and, according to the
iatter's statement to the Courier
News, stated that her husband, judge
Iotten, was much interested in the
reforms" which Mrs. O'Hare advo-
Gated and invited her to spend the eve
ming with the Tottens. Mrs. O'Hare
stated that she did spend very pleas
ant evening there, finding the Judge
views.
The Tottens had attended the lee
ture the evening before and had an
plauded Mrs. O'Hare. Both the Judge
and the postmistress testified durinp
the trial that she said nothing in her,
lecture which did not merit their an
prevail. Immediately after the recon
