LEMkE HALTS PHONE
RATE INCREASE

On December 3rd Attorney Gener-
al Elect Lemke, happening to be in
Bismarck, dropped over to the office
of the Board of Railroad Commission
ers and said: GAS special assistant at
torney general l object on behalf of
the State to any increase in the tele-
phone rates at this time, and espec-
tally so since only the attorneys of
the Northwestern Telephone Ex-
change and the North Dakota indie
pendent Company are being heard"
This halted the proceedings and the
Attorney General Elect then asked
sufficient delay in the decision of the
Board, on the plea of the Bell tele-
phone trust for increases ranging
from 20 to rs per cent, until he, as
Attorney General, could make an in
vestigation on behalf of it's subscrib-
ers.
Mr.. Lemke further called the at
tention of the Board to present hard
economic conditions and said: cit
seems to be a very inopportune time
for any public utility to ask to have
it's rates increased when the prices of
all other commodities are either stand
ing still or rapidly declining, and when
the cost in the construction and oper-
alton of telephone exchanges is eth
err standing still or is declining"
Many people in the towns as we'll as
in the country are now contrasting the
activity of the Attorney General Elect
with that of the present Attorney
General, for while MI. Lemke was do
ing his utmost to protect the people
against the Telephone Trust, on the
same day Mr.. LANCER was out with
the panic-makers cunning for the
Bank of North Dakota. There's a big
difference between the two Bills, al
right, and many of the townsmen who
fought and tried to defeat Mr.. Lemke
are fast waking up to the fact that
somebody "played them for suckers"

Pending construction Of new city
crematory TO replace that burned sun
day night. garbage will be dumped on
the lot surrounding the old disposal
plant on Marsh Road, between the Jes-
sup and Moore Pulp Works and the
Harlan Shipbuilding plant. This decision
was arrived at by the Board OF Health
and a number Of other city officials at a
hastily called conference yesterday aft
ernOon.
Contractor Healys in charge Of the
garbage collection, said the roadway
leading to the new location was narrow
and would mean a delay Of about ilf-
teen minutes TO cart every load. This
he declared, would hamper satisfactory
collections, and he advised that the
public be requested 20 burn as much
garbage as was possible TO help relieve
the rather pressing situation.
The lot on Marsh Road was used sew

some OF the machinery there viii be
repaired and used temporarily, II IS

this work and appropriation OF The

above plan apparently was the only

company he asserted but the emergency
demanded immediate action, otherwise
there would be an uproar from citi-

He cited a similar instance in 1912,
and said there was absolutely no dan

Isolated location OF The plant, be de-

A Cow on the lee.

Dear Uncle, Jed: thought | would write and tell you about the man who was driving 9 COW near our house on Sunday. He was riding in wagon and it was so slippery the COW could hardly walk. They came to a place where it was more slippery than be- fore.
 The man got off of the wagon when he saw the COW would not go. He took off his coat and threw it on the ground for the COW to walk on. The COW would not do so. He then tied the COW to the fence. and went after a box which was near store, not far from our house. He took the box. put some ashes in it and scattered them on the ground for the COW to walk on.
 The COW did not want to go but he pulled her on and she walked through the snow and ashes, He left his wagon near our house and his coat also. He then came back and took his coat and wagon, and rode on his way. We thought it was fun to watch him, but I suppose it was not fun fo1 him.

Tn the days of long ago family lived in a little hut in the country. The youngest child was Doris. One day she was out in the yard playing with mud pies and swinging in the swing. All of a sudden she ran into the house crying.
 Her mother, very frightened, asked what the matter was. Doris said that a band of gypsies were talking to her but she did not know what they said and became frightened. Her mother then went out where the gypsies were
 The mother inquired what the gyp- sies wanted. They said that one ot their bands had been along this road and were on their way here. They said that they were going to kidnar Doris. Her mother took her by the hand and led her into the house and pulled all the shades down and locked the door, The gypsies were never heard of after.

A coastinu Party.

It was a fine night in February. There was a thick crust on the snow and it was dandy for sliding. As there was quite few of us children living near each other we thought it would be fine to go out sliding by moonlight So we all put on our caps sweaters and coats and left home for the. hill about s o'clock. One boy brought his bob sled and we all sat down and started down the hill. We got about half way down when the bob sled turned turtle and we all fell off the sled. But we did not care we took it as a joke and started once again. This time we had better sue cess and had a fine time the rest of the evening.
 At about half past nine we started home and as we were saving good bye to one of our girl friends, her mo- ther came to the door and asked us all to come in, so we went in; and she, had a pleasant surprise waiting for us. She had made cake, cookies and cocoa as she thought we would be cold and hungry when we came back. We were, but we had not realized it before. We certainly had a great time sliding that night.

 Upon leaving the boat we walked a short distance and took an elevated train to Aunt Fanny's house. Ii was a great surprise for them to see us, for they knew nothing of our coming. Later. during the afternoon, Cousin Lily took me to see the park on Fifth avenue, where many people were out skating and horseback riding. They were all in such a hapy humor and they seemed to be enjoying it all so much. that I just wished could be with them.
 The day went to the museum of art 1 saw the most wonderful paint ings and statues one of. which in- pressed me greatly. It is called The Peace of the World. It is a large bronze statue of little boy leading a lion. Next to this and belonging to the same statue is a man hammering swords and other war implements Into farming tools such as scythes. hoes. spades. etc.

Beinu Kind Pays.

George and Alfred Bedding lived in Boston. Both Of them were T. years old, but Alfred said he was an inch taller than his brother. Both boys had thrift card and each wanted to have his filled first. George by working a little harder, doing errands. had managed to get twelve stamps, two more than his brother.
 One day as the two boys were walking to school they saw some other boys stoning a dog. The twins were both kind to animals and they wanted to see everybody else the same: SD they went and stopped the other boys from hitting the dog. IL was early, So they took the dog home and gave h something to eat.
 That night Mrs. Bedding showed the twins a piece in the paper. II offered a reward of ten dollars for the finding of such and such a dog. When they had finished reading it, George saiG 'Whyi That's the dog we foundi" ana Alfred repeated nearly the same thing.
 The next morning the twins took the dog to his owner, receiving a crisp ten dollar bill as the reward.
 They did not go home immediaetlv but went to the postoffice and bought enough thrift stamps to fll. each Q, their books. Az there was some more money left over after getting a wal savings stamp. they divided the money and each started another thrift card
 They say "A thrift card makes vor feel like a real American" and I hope everybody else agrees.

taking his game from his pocket he put his hand on the apples. He said: There are those old cider apples now" and he flung them into the rub bish pail near by.
 Next morning he dumped the pail for the chickens. It happened that he dumped it on slope and the apple that was in began to roll. It rolled and rolled and I began to get dizzy. Finally it stopped right in a flower bed with wire over it. The chickens tried but couldn't get the apple nor me. I was so tickled because they couldn't eat me that I laughed at them.
 By and by, after the apple was de- cayed, the people pulled up the flowers and in doing so covered me up. The next spring I began to push some sprouts out and I changed into leaves. I grew every year and no one noticed me until was a foot tall. Now I am a pig tree, bearing big red apples, and Pm sure you would like to eat one right now.

Read This and Tell Dad
 EIow Movie Camera Works
BY GRANT M. HYDE

"Every time 1 watch a moving pie ture, Daddy, 1 wonder what makes the pictures move. But everyone whom l ask laughs at me and says that 1 ought to know"
 If you were a little older, you would know, for when the moving picture was invented a few years ago 1t was so wonderful that almost everyone knew how 1t worked. And in the early pie lures 1t was not so hard to see how 1t was done because the pictures fickered so that they gave the secret away.
 "A motion picture is a series of thou sands of photographs, taken an instant apart and each just a little different from the next, thrown before you one after another, so fast and so perfectly that they melt into one picture and make you think that you are watching one picture in which persons are nov ing Each picture in the camera IS about as large as a special delivery post age stamp, and hundreds of them are taken, one above the other, on long strip of cellu1oid. This strip is called a film, that IS why movie plays are called film plays The film that can be rolled on one big camera spool is called reel, and so we speak of two-reel and five-reel plays because of the amount of film used in showing them.
 The moving picture camera is 2 complicated affair, with two film reels, a crank, and an automatic shutter. As I the camera man takes the picture, he turns the crank to wind the film from one reel to the other; and, as he cranks, the film passes in front of a shutter that keeps opening and closing
