CITY men MAY
OFFER HARVEST
HELP TOFARMER
Plan Suggested Here Meets
With Generous Re
Spouse.

The question Of organizing "shock
troops" among the business men of
the city for the purpose Of helping
the farmer during the harvest season
has been brought up by U. S. Field
Agent A. j.. Surratt, who suggests, on
the basis of what is being done else
where in the country, that men Of the
city agree to offer their help to farm
ers after the close of the days bust
ness. The fact that daylight fingers
on for several hours after 6 O'Clock
is n of the circumstances which
render the plan feasible.
Various city men have endorsed
the suggestion. and E. j. Taylor, gov
eminent labor employer here, has
promised to give his best support pro-
vided it turns out that such help re-
ally is needed in the country. Mr..
Taylor added hat just the present
time there is no great shortage OF
men in farm labor.
Field Agent Surratt has offered to
be one of the first to don overalls and
to FOLLOW the binders, and Mayor H.
M. Wheeler thinks the plan so good
that he recommends the Home Guards
of the city take care OF, the organizing

HOSPITALITY w.
PLANS FOR "
SOLDIERS MADE
Effort Will be Made to En-
terrain Men Stationed
in City.

The citizens Of Grand Forks are to
have the opportunity to entertain the
soldiers who r in training at the
University of North Dakota. These
men are from the four corners of the
state, and many are, literally speak
ing, strangers in a strange city, and
know what it means to be away from
home n friends, as many of them
are for the first time. Is there ever a
time when n appreciates friendships
and little k~indnesses shown him as
when he is among strangers? Is there
anything that does more to raise his
spirits than to have his new friends
show that they are glad to have him
among them and to try to make him
feel at home?
Many are the homes in Grand
Forks that are familiar with the acts
and effects of kindness shown their
boys who are away. Letters from the
boys who are now, perhaps, cover
here, come often to parents and
friends, and when they are met in
some city, enroute to camp, say, and
the populace turns out in a body, and
entertains them with music and a
banquet. the letters are full of stories
about it; it makes the absence easier
for both the soldier and thosA at
home. Such acts show the boys that
they are among friends and make
them glad to do their bit.
The directors Of the Commercial
club will help the citizens of Grand
Forks to get in touch with the SOL
diers who are stationed at the uni
versity and have appointed a special
committee to work out a plan where
by the citizens may have the men at
their homes for Sunday dinner and to
spend the day, if they will, giving
them a touch of home life.
The soldiers who would care to
spend the Sunday in this way will
leave their names with the war Y. M.
G: A. secretary at the university, and
all citizens who want to entertain any
OF the soldiers will make their wishes
known to secretary of the Com
mercial club. 1t is expected and hoped
that this will result in a more pleas
ant way Of spending the remaining
Sundays for our soldiers while sta
toned here. This plan has been tried
out with very favorable results in
many other cities near training camps
and there is no reason why it should
not meet with success in Grand Forks

BONDS ARE ACCEPTED
Local School Board Receives None,
For High School Bonds.

The board of education this morn
ing received the money for its new
high school bonds which were recent
ly accepted by the state through uni
vers:ty and school lands. The bonds
are for $4,000 at 4 per cent and
are the best f1otation of this amount
for municipal bonds in the United
States for the past two years, it was
said.
Considerable difficulty was met
with in the floating of the bonds, and
it was intimated here today that the
officials at Bismarck may not have
been too willing to let the school
board get them.
