Meanest Man.

"rhe meanest man on earth" has
been discovered.
Even insurance men, possessing
most human traits, have revealed oc-
casional phases Of meanness, but it re-
mained for clergyman, an ordained
preacher Of the gospel, to outclass
superlatfvely all other contestants for
the croix de gall.
This pastor, who resides within eye
range Of the Woolworth tower, makes
practice Of charging claimants under
life insurance policies fee of i per
cent af the face of the policy for fill
ing out the clergyman's certificate on
death claims.
Y The medal for concentrated and un-
diluted meanhess is hereby awarded.
The contest Is ended d.-Insurancs

Further detailed information regard

The contest is now on. Six wolves
we're exhibited by one person the other

wolves in Pembina county by April, 1920,
will be considerable less than st present.
Hunters and trappers are now busy and
the hunted will be spirited from now un-
til close Of contest Furthermore the
skins are yslnable at this time Of year.
After skins have been examined at audi
tors Office and marked, same will be re-
turned to owners or IN case owner wishes
TO do so, auditor will forward sams to
some fur concern, proceeds to be paid to
person killing wolves.
Sheep raising and the productions
theretrom has become one Of Pem6ina
county's largest enterprises and the coun-
~ commissioners aim to give greater pro-
lection thereto. The matter was one
over with some Of the farmers who are
very much interested in the sheep in
dustry and after such conference it was
decided that something should be done
before spring in the destroying Of the
noxious wolf.
Az When one takes into consideration the
greatness Of Pembina connty's mutton
and ltool prod actlons there is good reason
TO bes alarmed at any thing which would
affect such produce. The value 81 Penn

state that at the conference held be- tween officials of the Seattle Ship ubilders and representatives of the War Labor Board and Seattle ship building firms, an agreement has been reached whereby the Macy Wage scale for all shipbuilders in Seattle will remain in force until October 1st.
 This agreement means that wartime wages will continue to be paid in the local shipbuilding yards.
 The agreement reached at this con ference puts the final stamp of defeat upon the efforts of the Seattle Ship builders Unions for betterment of their conditions.
