Do the WOMEN
Of LAKELAND
WANT TO WORK?

The Chamber of Commerce of Lake
land has some negotiations with a
certain manufacturer of high class
product, who would like to come to
Lakeland and put in manufacturing
plant here, in case certain matters
can be satisfactorily arranged. One
OF the main points on which securing
this factory hinges is the ability to
satisfy the manufacturer that he can
get necessary help. He would, after
getting in full operation, employ so tc
70 girls or women, though he would
start with a smaller number.
The work will be clearly, not un-
attractive and very well paid. The
class of work is suited to women, and
any intelligent girl can master it in
few weeks at most.
Now, we want to convince this man.
ufacturer that he can get the help he
desires II he is induced to locate here.
We are therefore asking that any girl
or woman who desires to work under
the conditions outlined above, will re-
port to the Chamber of Commerce as
early as possible, go that list of
available workers may be had. This
list will not be published or made
public, but is for the business purpose
stated above.
Let us see how many girls and
women in Lakeland would work If

country, and it is gratifying to have
such an organization looking to Lake
land for men to direct it. It is an
offer such as certainly seldom comes
to pastors ir small cities, and shows
that Mr.. Entzminger has been able to
impress big people with his ability.
Mr.. Entzminger did not indicate
his Intentions as to accepting or re-
jecting this offer, but despite its fat
tering character, we know that his
loyalty to and love of Lakeland Is
such that be would consider long and
seriously before making a change.

K0SlTSKY CASE
AGAINST DAKOTA.
BANK is ARGUED!
Cathro ct al Asked to Show
Cause Why Business Should
Be Secret

The Bank of North Dakota, through
w. A. Anderson, Minneapolis park
board secretary of the state industrial
commission, and Les Simpson of Dick
inson, devoted the morning to an en-
deavor to convince the supreme court
that the bank and it's affairs are no
business of the public, and that State
Auditor Kositzky and the other duly
elected or appointed auditing officers
of the state have no right to pry into
the affairs of the institution i'll which
some 100000, 900 of the peoples money
is impounded. ~
The action is an outgrowth of an
effort on the part of the state auditor
to carry out instructions of the state
banking board, demanding that he
make thorough examination of the
Bank of North Dakota, following the
discovery In the files of the Scandi-
navian- American bank Of Fargo, then
in the hands of a receiver, of copy
of a letter which Cashier Sherman
had written the Bank of North Dakota
submitting a big batch OF postdated
checks and similar paper as collateral
for a loan of several hundred thous-
and! ..,.
Kositzky took possession of the bank
when it's officers were absent, but ne
had not made much progress with his
examination when Cathro, after a
council of war with Nonpartisan lea,
que chieftains, served notice on the
state auditor that the investigation
could not proceed The state auditor
then applied to Judge Nuessle in dis
trict court for an order permitting the
examination, and the action was
brought to supreme court on an ap'
peal.
Assistant Attorney General F. d
Packard is acting for the state in this
matter.
