IL. A. Nestos Guest of Minot Rotary
Today

An interesting Rotary meeting was
held today at noon. Ira c. Jones
was chairman and the paper was read
by Henry NJ. Wilson Of the Interna-
tional Oil Co. Mr.. Wilson referred
to the Montana oil fields where wells
aggregating 1000 barrels day have
come in. He states that the Montana
field is very small and the output is
considered small when it is considered
that one of the smaller fields in Okla
homa has an output Of more than 2OO,-
600 barrels day. Mr.. Wilson, who
is chairman Of the Boys Work COM
mittee in Rotary, outlined some OF the
plans for boys work for the summer.
He said the plan for taking 100 boys
to the Devils Lake camp for ten days
had practically been abandoned, be-
cause the expense would be 81 400 but
the committee is now working on the
plan of giving the Boy Scouts an
outing at Rice Lake where the bathing
and fishing are excellent. The mat
ter of play grounds will be taken
up also.
r. A. NestoS, guest, was lntroduc-
ed as "the next governor OF North
Dakota" Mr.. Nestos states that he
was pleased with the work the Rotary
is doing in behalf Of boys. As a
member Of the State Y. M. c. A.
board, he was instrumental in having
A. D. MCDANIEL placed on the state
committee, realizing that as Rotarian,
he would take an interest in the work
for the young men of the state.
W. M. Smart, newly elected presi-
dent of the city commission and Aksel
Bratsberg, newly elected commission
er spoke briefly, assuring the Rotar-
ians and other citizens Of Minot that
they will be pleased to have them CO.

ductng the affairs of our city.

"Well Silky it is time that we were
getting ready to go to our home in
the Great Forest Of the North. The
birds and beasts will be looking for
me very soon, and we must not dis
appoint them. Bid this saucy fellow
farewell and we will start forth OF
u Journey" p
Silky put his arms about the fell
lows neck. and Rugged him tightly.
Now the latter wasn't used to that,
sort Of a greeting and he was afraid
but Tinker told, him that it was the
only way Silky had Of saying good
bye so he took it as it was meant.
With their Magic Basket full of
cocoanuts the King of the Forest
and Silky started away toward the
Land of the North, where there were
many creatures waiting for the re-
turn of theig King .
Tomorrow we will see. how they

Monkey" said Tinker Bob as again
Silky climbed a a tree after
his roll on the ground with this fell
low. who was going to catch him and
give him to the man in the city who
would take him, to the Northland.
Why don't you catch him?"
III show what I can do with him.
said the young fellow whose ayes
were flashing with anger. He again
lifted his gun to his shoulder and
pointed it directly toward the Mon
key who a in the cocoanut tree.
Tinker Bob knew it would be
dangerous for Mr.. Monkey to remain
there when this enemy vas sc close
so he tapped the Stone of knowledge
and suddenly Silky was out Of sight,
forIthe Wonderful Creature Of His
Desire had come to the Monkey and
taken him away So strange was all
this n a the young fellow who wanted
to kill Silky began to tremble with
fear.
Where has that Monkey gone, am
pened?" He looked about a bit try
ing to see If he was blind. but he
could see Tinker Bob and allf the
other things about the grove, yet
there was no Monkey to be SEEN.
Tell me quickly what has happened
to that Monkey"
Before he could say more Silky
stood beside him. for Tinker Bob
had taphed the Stone again There
upon the fellow was so surprised that
he fell to the ground. Where did
you come FROM" he cried, but Silky
made no reply. I'll get you this
time" and he pulled up his gun and
again Silky disappeared, and the fell
low with the gun began to be afraid.
20 indeed, you must be the King
of the Forest" he said to Tinker
Bob. This could not happen unless
you willed it so. Do bring that
Monkey back m he can. have all
the c%ocoanuts he wants and 1 will
never disturb him as long as I live"
1t took him a long time to come to
himself but now that he did realize
that Tinker Bob was King of the
Forest, Silky the Monkey came back
and stood beside him, and looked at
him wisely. ss.., ,

COTTON ACREAGE HAS
 BEEN GREATLY REDUCED

While statistice of a definite nat ure are not yet available, all advices from various sections of the state indicate that there has been a very considerable reduction in the acreage of many of the staple cottons for this year. It has been estimated by some that the cotton acreage has been re- duced fifty per cent Associations and agencies had been advocating such course; agricultural conditions had forced it Cimiliar causes have brought about a reduction of fifty percent in the rice acreage. For rice which has one of the states largest crops has been for some time a drug upon the market and the rice growers have lost heavily. A decrease is also reported in the acreage of tomatoes. On the other hand, there have been material increases in the acreage de- voted to oats, corn, strawberriesand cantaloupes as well as forage and hay crops. While the strawberry acreage is larger than it was last year, the yield has been considerably smaller because of the late frosts and unseas
 enable weather All prices are off. There is no crop of any character whatever that is bringing in the re- turns which were enjoyed by the far mer in recent years. This years crop of all kinds are being produced at considerable less cost than were the crops of other years,

GOVERNOR FIRST TO SIGN.
 AMENDMENT PETITION

Governor Thos. c. McRae was the first one to sign petition for the sub mission of a proposed amendment to the constitution, prohibiting local and speciay legislation. A total of 15, 209 signatures will be necessary to initiate the meendment. Signatures are being receiver in large numbers from all over the state and it is eX- pected that the requisite number will be secured in a short time This will be only the beginning, however, of the fight, for there will be long legal complication before either of the pro- posed amendments are certified out.
 While the sentiment in favor of the local legislation amendment is strong in some quarters, it cannot be denied that there will be considerable opp osition to it. The tenor of this opp osition is indited by the Bonneville Democrat, which argues that" Local legislation should be restricted in smoe way, but we hope the promoters of this drastic amendment proposed on second thought will realize the necessity of a change in its provis ions" The Democrat luther says that "all of us are disgusted with loc- al laws, but if we take one minute to think, we can see that the amendment suggested to be initiated would be most rediculous and would be another black eye for Arkansas.

CHICAGO BETTER THAN N. Y.

The moral forces of Chicago have scored a great victory for clean plays, and shows a moral atmosphere better than that of New York. The salac- ious play, "Aphrodite," which greatly shocked the sensibilities of moral people, was permitted to go it's full length in New York and the managers attempted the same thing in Chicago and put the play on in the Audi torium Theater there. and had record breaking crowds, but the Chicago Church Federation got busy and at tackled the play as immoral and sacri- hgiouS and appealed to the authori- ties to suppress the play Critics were appointed by the corporation council and they agreed that it was in violation of the law against ob- scene exhibitions. Mayor Thompson then ordered the play to be closed, and warned the Auditorium that if any more such scenes were permitted on its stage that its amusement li cense would be revoked. "Aphrodite' was then cut short and came to an end before half of the time had been consumed.
 The Church Federation, under the leadership of the president, Dr. How ard Agnew Johnston, announces that they will attack any other indecent
