District Institutes.
The great world war has given US
shining example Of efficient organiza-
ton. The world has been made to
wonder at the accomplishment Of Am
erica, in few short months. Now
that the war is over we turn again to
civil life But are we going back to
the same old life? No, it is not going
to be the same, for the demands of the
world are going to be greater than
over before The world is demanding
now higher standard of Christianity.
1t is just here that the Sunday school
must assume a greater responsibility
than it has ever assumed before if it is
to fulfill it's mission.
The Ward County Sunday School
Association is making sincere effort
to meet the responsibility which falls
upon it. The particular part of this
organization to which / wish to call
your attention at this time is the Dis
trict Institutes. Institutes have al
ready been held in some Of the Dis
tricts this year. Others are yet to be
held. 1t is in the district institute
that the best work Of the association
can be done. It is here that you come
into closer contact with the schools
and school officers than you can come
any other way, except to visit them
personally. In these institutes the
teachers, officers and delegates from
all the schools of the district can come
together and discuss their local prob
lens, increase their store of knowl-
edge concerning Sunday school work
and receive great inspiration to do
better work when they 60 back to
their own schools The program
should be carefully arranged so as to
give the fullest and freest discussion
to all problems Of interest to the peo-
pie Of the particular district
The institute is a great source Of
help in the development of leaders for
Sunday school work. 1t should be the
duty of every one, who is at all inter-
ested in Sunday schools to attend
these Institutes and to anyone who is
not interested in Sunday schools it |
would be a good place to go to get in
terested.
For the purpose Of reaching every
part Of the county with these insti-
tutes, the county is divided into the
following districts:
District No. All the Minot, ORA
dy and Alton township Sunday
schools.
District No. 2-All Ryder, Hidden

The Lenten season is, so far, =
beautiful one. There are some who
are observing the real, old-fashioned
Lent as the really devout people
know, but there are many who have
modified their observance to the
extent of allowing themselves the
theaters, the concerts, card playing
and dining. With these simple
amusements they are keeping them
selves busy. There are, too, balls
to be managed. One large one for
Mi-Careme and several for Easter
| Monday and the Easter week. The
mid-Lenten ball is the bali of the
nations" for the benefit of the pop
ular home charity, Neighborhood
house, and it always draws largely
upon the old resident circles and, of
course, the debutante set. The Eas-
ter Monday ball is the Army and
Navy league, one of the largest of
the charity balls of each season and
always one of the prettiest. 1t is
then that the winter ball gowns,
limp and otherwise out of commits
sion, have been given up and the
spring and summer evening clothes
are fresh and crisp. This year the
Easter is so late that it will seem
almost summer time.
