Pioneer Farmer
Removes From County


John A.: Lundquist, one of the well
known pioneer farmers Of town of
Wanger, Marshall county, accompanied
by several Of his grown-up children,
passed through Warren on Mondays
local bound for Fargo, n. D., where
they will establish temporary and
perhaps, also, their permanent home.
Two of the elder sons, who are travel
ling statesmen, have made their head
quarters at Fargo for some time. Mr..
Lundquist, who by the way is brother
of C. E. Lundquist, of Warren, settled
in town of Wanger in the early lSSOs:
There he developed a good farm and
raised fine family of sturdy sons and
daughters. Mrs. Lundquist died num-
Der of years ago. Having sold the
farm, Mr.. LundQuist~ and family now
bid farewell to Marshall county where
they have made their home so long.
That they will always carry with them
many tender memories from their early
struggles. hardships encountered, OBJ
stacles overcome and successes achiev-
ed, goes without saying. They will also
carry with them wherever they go the
good will and best wishes of their
neighbors and a host of friends from
all parts of the county. The county is
made poorer by their moving away.

''His Majesty, the
American" at Strand

The Strand Theatre has been for
tunate in securing His Majesty, the
American, Douglas Fairbanks first in
dependent production, for Market Days,
Friday and Saturday Of this week.
This is the first release of the United
Artists Corporation, the so-called "Big
Four, formed by Mary Pickford,
Charlie Chaplin, Douglas Fairbanks
and D. w. Griffith, all conceded to be
the worlds foremost film stars.
The management of the Strand
Theatre feels great pride in having Sc
cured this production for Warren.
They have always endeavored to choose
attractions with discrimination and re
gardless of expense. In the case Of
His Majesty, the American" knowing
what Douglas Fairbanks film will be
when the inimitable Doug" can put
his best intoit, the theatre management
feels and justly so, that it offers to it's
patrons what should prove to be the
very height Of screen entertainment d
Another exceptional attraction has
been secured for April 18th and 18th
when Mary Pickford will appear in
"Pollyanna." This film is now being
shown at the Minneapolis theatres.

Marshall County Inter-
Church Meeting
Next Thursday

The county meeting Of the Inter-
church World Movement will convene
at the First NJ. q. church in Warren on
Thursday, April Sth. Every church in
the county is invited to send represen-
tatives. The speakers Of the day will
be select men chosen from the many
denominations. There will be morning,
afternoon and evening programs. In
the evening there will be pictures
shown representing the conditions in
various countries of the world.
During the week following Easter
there will be similar meetings to our
own held in every county in the United
States. This is done so that people
generally will understand the Inter-
church Movement and thru it see the
crying need Of cooperation on the part
of the different denominations. There
is but one solution to the worlds pro-
blens now that is adequate and that
is to interpret them in the spirit of
Christ. This can be done if the
churches will work together. The In
.ter-church movement points the way.
All Of these meetings are open to the
public $685. 81

Stephen School Children
Examined by Nurse

During the past week 1856 children
were given physical examinations in
the Stephen public schools by Elizabeth
Hanson. r. n, Marshall county public
health nurse. Twenty-Five were found
to be apparently without any physical
defects, or. had had such defects cor
rected. OF the remaining pupils SO had
defective vision, 81 had defective tenn
porary. teeth, 100 had defective per-
manent teeth, 81 had defective tonsils
and adenoids, 26 had defective ear con-
ditions, s had enlarged thyroid glands,
+ had communicable skin diseases, =
had orthopedic defects, and were SUI
fering from marked nervous diseases.
Only 10 had glasses, and Is had had
tonsils and adenoids removed While a
great deal of the dental work had al
ready been done, 100 children are still
in need Of dental care for permanent
teeth.
A general invitation was extended to
the parents asking them to be present
at these examinations which resulted
in personal consultations with the par
ents Of 20 children. With the exception
Of one rural school where every parent
was present, it is found that most par
ents are 'stoo busy" to make one visit to
the school for the consideration Of their
childrens physical needs. In view of
this fact, is it any great wonder that
these reports are as startling as they
are?

What Is The Value
OF Boys and Girls
-... Club Work?

In localities where the people have
had the opportunity to see what Club
work means to the community, the
work has become more popular every
year, because Of the influence it has
upon the boys and girls. These con-
tests give the boy or girl something
definite to think about, something de-
finite to occupy part Of their time and
yet leave them time for all the play
the want. These contests are business
enterprises for the boy or girl, and give
them valuable experience, and train
them to be thrifty and industrious. We
all know the character too many boys
develop, who have too much unguided
idle time thrust upon them. The con-
tests give the boy or girl an opportun-
ity to earn some money Of their own,
by the products they produce and the
possible prize money; and give them
the pleasure Of competing for a prize
by doing. something better than the
other fellow.
If your boy or girl says, II want to
join the Poultry contest, or ''the Home
Garden contest, do the right thing by
them. Rules for home garden contest
will also be published, but we strongly
urge the poultry contest because it is
more certain of success for the contest
ants. ~
An achievement day will be held in
September at the High School Auditor
ium, when the contestants will exhibit
their products and prizes will be award
ed.
These club contests will be super
vised by Supt: G. Holmquist and H. j.
Hookom, high school agricultural in
structOr.

Will Warren Play
Ball This Year?

For the past two years Warren has
not had base ball team. Now, all the
boys have returned from their services
with Uncle Sam and there is plenty of
good material in the city to organize a
first class base ball team The boys in
Warren should get busy and organize
as soon as possible. Argyle has already
completed its organization and have de-
cided to hire battery in addition to
their 1ocalttalent.
There is some talk Of organizing a
Red River Valley League to include
Grand Forks. Drayton. Grafton. Hal
lock. Stephen. Argyle, Warren and
Crookston If Warren wants to be rep
resented in this league now is the time
to get busy.

MANY FARMERS
AT DITCH HEARING
One of the Most Important Drainage
Projects in History of the County
is Up for Consideration.

About 200 farmers from eastern Mar
shall and Pennington counties arrived
on the 500 this morning to attend the
big ditch hearing for the consolidation
OF Judicial bitches numbers 1O2 and
JOB, set for today before Judge Grinde-
land. The project involves among
other things the deepening and widen
ing of Thief river so as to provide q
sufficient outlet for the drainage bitches
that it is proposed to construct and
which are to empty their waters into
the river. It is million dollar project
and the cost may even reach a million
and half and perhaps more, but the
benefits to be derived are also claimed
to be CORRESPONDENCE large. Many of
those present represent, besides them
selves, also large number Of their
neighbors, and some represent even an
entire township. As usual in ditch
proceedings, some favor and some op-
pose the proposed improvement. Those
who favor the project are represented
by attorneys julius J. Olson, of this
city, and Charles Loring, of CroOkston !;
those opposed to the project are repre-
scented by attorneys e. M. Stanton and
Mr.. Chommie, Of Thief River Falls. G.
G.. Selvig, president, and W. J. Brown,
attorney, of the recently organized
drainage conservency district, are at
tending the hearing as interested spec
tators E. V. Willard, acting engineer
Of the State Drainage Commission, is
also here as an expert witness. So
many parties want to be heard in the
matter that the hearing cannot possibly
be concluded today and may require
several days to finish. The project is
mighty important one and deserves to
be carefully considered both pro and
