Bronze Tablet to a Com
munity House.

Many suggestions are being made
about the city regarding the proposed
memorial for Grand Forks a en- and
women who died in the ser>Ece of the
United States during the recent war.
The suggested forms for the memo
rial to take have ranged from a SIM

house. @
If it is found that other parts OF
the country desireNto join in the me-
mortal to be erected here, and the
necessary funds a be raised, the idea
Of = community house may meet with
much favor. 1t is felt that this form
OF q memorial would be of real use,
and would be 4 lasting benefit to the
city and county.
The plan for an ordinary monument
does not appear to bs generally ia
Various forms OF fountains in vary

British Isles is quite a different mat
ter from docking in New York har-
Dor. Liverpool is on the estuary Of
the Mersey Glasgow on the estuary

must wait for the tide to leave or
enter. We entered the Clyde late in
the afternoon, after a whole day in
sight of land. first Ireland, then Scot
land. beautiful rocky coasts, yet with
intervals where houses and farms
came right to the edge of the water.
About in the evening we came to
Greenock, one of the many suburbs
of Glasgow where the shipyards line
the river on either side, and took on
the pilot. His first order was to
anchor and wait for the tide; this
done, he began looking around for
something to eat, from which we
Judged that he had been rationed on
