Surgical Dressing Section Of
Fargo Red Gross Receives order
For 5000 GaMSe Face Masks

4 Spanish influenza has reached
Fargo, not In the form of people af-
flicted with the disease, but through
a demand made upon the surgical
dressings department of the Fargo
branch of the Red Cross. Orders
were received this morning for 5000
gauze masks to be sent to head
quarters at Minneapolis as prompt
~ as possible and to make a 1000
extra for home use.
The face mask is method of
prevention that has become general
in hospital treatment of those
diseases that are transmitted directly
through the secretations from the
nose and throat and these gauze
masks are much needed in the hos
pitfalls treating the widely prevalent
influenza, for both the patients and
nurses. They are a tremendous help
in controlling the spread of the dis
ease and the need for the 5000
masks requested from the Fargo
branch is immediate.
The work on the new order was
started this afternoon and the surgI-
cal dressings classes which will meet
this evening will work on the new
order, The gauZe masks are made Of
eight thicknesses of gauze hemmed
about the edges with tapes tied to
the four corners to be nosed in ty-
ing the mask in place. They are
simple of construction and all pos
Stble volunteer workers are desired.
The surgical dressing department
especially requests that all super
Yisors report tomorrow for instruc-
tion and work and every woman in
the city with an hour or more of

organ Recital
WeUAttended

Thre was a splendid attendance at
the opening meeting of the Music
and Pipe Organ sections Of the Fine
Arts club, and this was an indica-
ton Of the interest that is taken in
the work of these sections of the
Fine Arts club. The meeting was
held Monday afternoon in the First
Congregational church and was in
the nature Of an open pipe organ
recital by the members of that group.
The program was opened with the
playing of THE Star Spangled BAN
ner'' by Mrs. F. NJ. Cleveland Mrs
Cleveland then played a Russian
composition, March Russo. This
selection was a combination of the
Russian national anthem and one of
the most popular folk songs of that
country. Mrs. e. r.. Wright and Mrs.
J. G.. Dillon were particularly pleas
ing in their number, a lullaby. Miss
Clara Pollock's selection was also
we'll received and her playing was
well up to the standard she has set
as a pipe organist. Miss Florence
Gorn1ley's number, "WiII o the
Wisp", was executed with a Iightness
and strength that was remarkable.
She then gave a second selection in
direct contrast to her first number
Mrs r. r. Wright, Mrs. J. A. Jardine
and Mrs. j. G. Dillon gave a trio Sc
lection, which was we'll suited, to the
peculiar qualities of their voices. Mrs.
III. u. More, one of the newer mem
bers of the club, also appeared. and
her work was of a particularly high
quality. Miss Hazel Smith gave the
closing number, and she was accom-
panied by Mrs. #. M. Cleveland

and the small peoples along the Bal
tic; il you refuse to redress the
wrongs of Poland; il the subordin-
ated peoples IN the Austrian en-
pire are to be left under the heel
of the German and Magyar minori-
ties; il the Balkans again are to be
the scene of bloody wars and the oc-
casion of histilities among the neigh
bors; If the Turk is to be allowed
to resume his bloody sway over the
territories torn from him; il Italy
is not TO have restored to her and
added to her those populations which
really make her indeed an Italy re-
deemed; if Greece is to be threat
ened as in the past by the domino
ton OF the Central Powers; if Serb
ia lis not to. be restored after all her
appalling sacrifices and glorious
gallantry; if France is not to resume
her full place in western Europe and
if Belgium is not to be restored in
full measure, If all those evils are
not potentially to Nrecur, then you
must do something more than mere
ly establish a league of nations.
You must put these wrongs right
before a league Of nations can set to
work. You must give it a, clean slate
to work upon. Then and then only
will your league OF nations work.
Victory Needed First.
Therefore, in order to make a
league of nations possible complete
victory is absolutely necessary. Ger
many can be a member of a league
Of nations when the International
system has been reformed by
great, wise and all-embTacing peace,
and that can never take place until
Germany not merely has been oblig-
ed to change her profession of faith.
but until Germany finds herself in a
position where all her dreams of
world domination are torn to pieces
before her eyes. She may be left
powerful, doubtless prosperous and
doubtless wealthy, but no longer a
tyrant who can use the nations
which she is in a position to influ-
ence to serve her own dreams of
world empire. Therefore 1 ask you
to remember how far the financial
efforts we now are calling upon you
to make extend beyond any merely
financial operation"

HIS APPROVAL OF
WILSON s IDEAS
OF PEACE LEAGUE
British Foreign Secretary
Warmly Commends

FULL VICTORY rs
FIRST NECESSITY
League Should Be Born at
!. the Peace Table and not
Afterwards
(Rv Associated Press !

London, Sept. 30.-The wrongs of
subordinated peoples must be right
ed and territories occupied by Ger
many since the beginning of the war
must have complete freedom before
a league of nations can be possible
and peace secured to the world, said
Arthur J. 4Balfour, British foreign
secretary at the Guildhall today. he
explained. President Wilson's recent
speech in New York and gave MS
support to the ideas outlined in it.
"Mr. Bonar Law has dealt with
the financial aspect of the struggle"
said Mr.. Balfour. Let me deal with
q. point of future security. The full
magnitude of all the issues before
mankind is thoroughly realized. Am
erica came into the war fully con-
scious OF what those issues were and
wisely named it's great financial Ell
fort after the cause which 1t had at,
heart for that cause was liberty for
the world. 4r-s
The Other Cause.
There is yet another cause, not
embodied in a name, but as present
to the hearts and conscience of Am
orleans as to the hearts and con-
science. of British, French and Ital-
ians-namely,. that If We failed in,
this crisis not merely to win the
war but to see that such wars do not
reoccur our task would be but half
accomplished. r.. ~.
ST am confident you all have read
President Wilson's speech. It had
all those cllarac teristics which make
his public utterances unique in state
documents. It had eloquence, d.
rectness and the magnificence Of
style to which he has accustomed
us. Wearisome formalities were alb
sent.
His main theme was this: That
if the world would make sure that
it is going to have peace it must
come to some arrangement by which
of would be malefactors
are to be kept in order by league
Of nations.
1.-THE second proposition was that
If you are to carry out this great
ideal the only time to do it effect
ually is the moment when peace it
self is being forged by the labors Of
the victorious powers.
Must Not Lose Opportunity.
Personally / very much of the 4
mind, that to allow this 4
occasion to sink into the past would
be to lose one of the great oppor-
tunities given mankind permanently
to put international relations upon a
sound, lasting and moral footing and
IL the work for your new interna-
tional machinery for securing peace
is not to be greater than it can per-
form, you must so arrange the map
Of Europe and the world that great
occasions for their wars will not
oyerwhelm you. *v .: I'll

may be at liberty. The rooms in the
Masonic Temple Will be open from
8 a. m. until/5 o'clock and all volun-
teer workers will be welcome.
This may be an opportunity to
save the life of some American boy,
to give the service which he has
pledged himself for" said one of the
workers this morning. TT seems
particularly bitter for the young men
to die in camp before they have had
the opportunity for service which
most of them desire. That the need
for this new order is urgent is shown
by the fact that no time Is set for
its completion, merely to be shipped
as promptly as possible. Hours

leisure can put 1t to no better SER
vice than to help with the making Of
