Successful Meeting at Alberta.

Alberta had an unusually successful
community meeting at the school
auditorium Saturday. The room was
filled to the limit. Only once before
was there so large crowd in the
building and that was at the time
the school building was dedicated and
then the crowd was no larger. It was
estimated that at least 800 were pres
emit. This is strong proof that AL
berta is justified in Boosting a good
community spirit. The program and
entertainment was excellent. The AL
berta school had large part in the
program. Some excellent recitations
were given and some excellent music
was furnished. Miss Hazel Witwer
sang songs in her usual effective way.
The president, L. P. Norby, gave an
excellent talk on Incorporation And
Community Spirit" and Rev. F. A.
Stever gave a good address on "The
Value of Cooperation And How To
Secure It."

$4,000 Bonus for Soldiers,

Chairman F. A. Zahl of the draft
board of Stevens county, hands us the
following circular explaining the
$4,000 bonus to discharged soldiers:
Section 1406 of the Revenue Act
approved February "a, 1919, author
ICES the payment of bonus of $4,000
to officers, soldiers, field clerks and
nurses of the Army upon honorable
separation from active service by dis
charge, resignation or otherwise.
This bonus is not payable to the heirs
or representatives of any deceased
soldiers.
''Those who are discharged here
after will receive this bonus on the
same roll or voucher upon which they
are paid their final pay.
"Those who have been discharged
and have received their final pay
without the $4,000 bonus, should
write a letter to the Zone Finance
officer, Lemon Building, Washing
ton, D. c., stating their service since
April 6, 1917, the date of last dis
charge and their present address to
which they desire their bonus checks
to be sent and enclosing with this
letter their discharge certificate or
military order for discharge and both,
if both we're issued.
Upon the receipt by the Zone FL
nance officer, Washington, D. c., of
this information and the soldiers dis
charge certificate, this officer will
cause checks to be drawn and mailed
to the claimants in the order in which
their claims were received by him.
The discharge certificate will be re-
turned to the soldier with the check.
"It is estimated that a least one
million and a quarter persons have
been discharged from the service who
are entitled to the benefits of this
Act and while payments will be made
as expeditiously as practicable, it
will manifestly take considerable
time to write and mail this many
checks"

following units:
THE SAITH INFANTRY BRIGADE:
This Brigade, under the command
of Brigadier General Douglas Mac
Arthur, has manifested the highest
soldierly qualities and has rendered
service of the greatest value during
the present operations. With dash,
courage and a fighting spirit worthy
Of the best traditions of the American
Army, this Brigade carried by as
sault the strongly fortified Hill 288
on the Kriemhilde Stellung and un-
ceasingly pressed it's advance until ii
had captured the Tuilerie Ferme and
the Bots de Chatillon, thus placing
itself at least kilometer beyond the
enemy's strong line of resistance
During this advance the enemy
fought with unusual determination
with first class division and in
many cases resorted to hand to hand
fighting when our troops approached
his rear. The conduct of this Bri,
gade has reflected honor upon the
Division, the army and the States
