Mr.. Advertisers:

This Is Message Of Much lmpor-
tance to You--kindly Read Il Over
Carefully.
The newspaper that is delivered
early to the reader is the one that
vertiser. The earlier family re
ceives its paper. the more time that
family has to read it thoroughly--tfis
is common sense. The newspapers OF
Ottawa have, through courtesy. per-
mitted advertising copy to come in at
almost any hour. The result has been
delayed press schedules and late de
livery and the GREATEST LOSER
HAS BEEN THE ADVERTISER.
These delays also disrupt the mail
irg schedules and the work CT tie en-
tire composing room organization.
Because Of these conditions the Free
Trader-Journal and the Daily Repub-
Iican-T ines have been compelled to
adopt the following schedules. which
will be adhered to to the letter and
without playing any favorites.

MEN OF AiIN0T SAY FAREWELL
TO PRESIDENT A. 6. CRANE

Major E. S. Person spoke in behalf
of the Association of Commerce. He
predicted that Mr.. Crane would not
stop as president of Normal school
believing that his capabilities will
take him upward.
Francis J. Murphy spoke for the
Rotary Club, whose motto Service
above Self" has been fully exemplified
by Mr.. Crane in his life here. Mr.
Murphy with his extensive vocabulary
soon had even the pedagogues hunt
ing for their dictionaries. His was
one of the cleverest after dinner talks
heard in this city.
The Town Criers Club was repre-
sented by G. D. Colcord who spoke
of the effective advertising that Mr.
Crane had done for the Minot normal
both in the news and advertising
columns and with it's thousands of
John E. Greene, was selected to
make the presentation speech, the
company presenting Mr.. Crane with
a set of gold cuff links and leather
portfolio.
In his response Mr.. Crane spoke of
his warm friendship Tor the men OF
Minot and he wonders that if he will
ever be as able to form close asso-
citation with the men of the east as
those of the west. Wherever he may
go, he will carry the true gospel of
Minot and Northwestern North Da-
kota. He gave as his main reason
for accepting the position as president
Of the Pennsylvania Normal school at
Edinboro, Pa, the great educational
program which has been started in
that state under the direction of Gov
ernor Sproul. He stated that he hop
ed the businessmen of Minot would
give his successor, whoever he may
be, the same undivided support that
they have given him.
Mr.. Crane, wife and son Paul, ex-
pect to leave Monday in their auto
for Pennsylvania.

Few men have been rendered such
= farewell reception as that given in
honor Of A. G. Crane, president Of
the Mimic Normal school, by the var.
ious organizations with which he has
been affiliated. The affair was held
at the Association of Commerce rooms
Tuesday evening and hundred asso-
ciates sat around the banquet table
enjoying an appetizing dinner served
by the ladies Of the Episcopal church
It was just good plan dinner with.
out any frills in perfect keeping with
the guest of honor. The POSTMASTER
was John H. Lewis, whose dry humor
kept the company in the proper state
Of mind thruout the evening. He
stated that he hailed from Vermont
where funerals were considered quite
an event and he intended to have q
first rate time on this sad occasion.
The affair opened with the singing
Of America. A violin trio by J. E.
Howard, J. H. Cotton and LATE Flaten,
a bass solo by Mr.. Cotton and violin
solo by Mr.. Howard brot forth en-
cores.
DR.. VIM. F. Clarke of the Minot
Normal was the first speaker. He
reviewed at some length the work
that Mr.. Crane has done for the Nor
NAL school. He had done prelimin-
airy work as superintendent Of the
Northwestern Summer school, laying
the foundation for the Normal school.
He staked out the site for the build
ing, selected the splendid furniture
for the building, selected his faculty
members, many of whom are still
with the institution and superintend-
ed the work of planting the trees and
sowing the lawn for the campus.
Around the school he has been known
as Gather" Crane,N first because he
was considered the father of the
school and second, because he has
been like father to the thousands
of students who have been under his
supervision, during all of these years.
DR.. Clarke paid the highest kind of
tribute to Mr.. Crane.
Supt. L. A. White of the Minot pub
lie schools spoke of the capable work
done by Mr.. Crane and said that in
his leaving, the Northwest was losing
one Of the country's very strongest
educators. Mr.. Whites response was
witty. He sustained his reputation
fully as one of our most pleasing
after dinner speakers.
