+ Mr.. and Mrs. P. R. Trubshaw are in
receipt of an invitation to attend s.
song recital at the Orpheum Theater
Fargo, on Sunday, December 10, at
3:3O o'clock, to be given by Mr.. David
DeHaven, assisted by Leland McEwen
accompanist. Mr.. DeHaven is to sing
a group of fifteen songs in that fine
tenor voice which he possesses, and
we feel sure that those who go to hear
him will be we'll and pleasingly enter
tanned. Mr.. DeHaven, has rented the
Orpheum at his own expense, is CIV
ing the concert free to those who care
to hear him, and is making this
contribution to those who do not have
the opportunity to attend something
of this sort very often. It is free
will offering on his part to contribute
something worth while to his home
city and it is contribution that
counts. Mr.. DeHaven is the possessor
of a fine voice and he is evidently 60
ing to use it for the good of the .peo-
pie of his city. This kind of spirit on
the part of its citizens is what goes
toward the making of a city where
community spirit permeates.

The members of the local X. P.
lodge held their regular meeting last
night at Castle hall. The principal
business of the meeting was the cleo
ton of officers for the ensuing year.
The following officers were elected:
Chancellor commander, AL. Hagen
stone; vice chancellor, Eugene Thurs
ton; prelate, Adrian Pfusch, master
work, Eistein Peterson; master at
arms, Ben Stuewig; keeper of records
and seal, VIM. H. Mcpherson; master
of the exchequer. B. R. Fusch, trus-
tee, A. C. Thorkelson; representatives
to grand lodge, Neal McFadgen and
I. J. Moe. After the election of Off
GERS two candidates were given the
degree of Page, this work being ex-
emplified very we'll. Past Grand Chan
cellor Bach, of Minot, was visitor at
the lodge and gave very interesting
talk on the growth of the order. The
K. P. orchestra was in attendance
and furnished music for the occasion.
Members of the order vote this meet
ing as one of the best Of the year.

The province of Shansi is noted for
two things particularly it's coal re-
sources and for the fact that the peo-
pie use so much vinegar. There is So
| much coal there that the province is
often spoken of as the Pennsylvania
Of China. The people do not eat rice
but they commonly mix -four and water
together forming strings which are
eaten with a little red pepper and vim
egar. The Chinese have a saying that
the people of North China like pep
perry food, the people Of East China,
salty things, the people of the west,
vinegar, and those Of the south, sweet
things.
She said that the province is quite
progressive due chiefly to the fact
that the governor is so progressive.
He has introduced stock from other
countries thus bringing up the country
agriculturally and industrially. He
has had books put into the hands Of
the people in order to help them NOR
ally and intellectually.
The schools of the country are built
up on the order of our western
schools. There are not nearly enough
teachers especially in the girls
schools. Old men have to be employ
ed because there is no one else. Of
course native girls are being trained
to go out as teachers but they need
trained leaders from America. The
women Of China are bound down by
conservatism. For example: the boys
and girls can not 60 to school togeth-
err so they have to arrange to start
school on different days. Then, too,
in olden times the bride and bride
groom did not see each other before
the marriage ceremony. However.
these customs are changing and the
children today are given some choice
in the matter of marriage.
She told of several strange things
which happen as result of the sup
rstitions of the people. One mar
wore an ear ring in one ear and
when asked why he wore it he replied
chat it was put in by his mother when
he was little boy so that the evil
spirit would think he was a girl and
would pass him by. Often little girls
are seen wearing short jackets which
are not hemmed. The reason for this
is said to be superstition that it the
coat is hemmed and the child gets
small pox the disease cannot get out
and the child will die. On this &C
count they wait until the child has had
the disease before hemming the gar.
ment. Miss Horne said that it was
hard for US to understand their fears
and superstitions.
On Christmas morning children
went around and sang Christmas
hymns. It seemed strange to the
Americans that the Chinese children
should be singing to them the songs
which they had come to teach the
Chinese. In fact, Miss Horne stated
that Christmas means more to the
Chinese in that province in many
cases than it does to us. It means
the commemoration Of the beginning
Of new life in the world and OF new
life in our hearts.
She closed with this thought: "As
YOU people are planning on your life
work what are you doing to help 9TH
ers to understand what Christmas
means?" u. b.

It has been the intention of Co. G
to put basketball team in the game
this winter but after further consid
Grafton they have decided that as the
city will have three teams in the field,
a fourth would not be warranted, and
their entry into the field would doubt
less detract from the support of the
other teams. Consequently the plan
has been abandoned. However, VAL
ley City will have the opportunity of
enjoying plenty Of good basketball
this winter with teams playing from
the High School, the State Teachers
College and the American Legion, as
these teams will doubtless be in the

ADVICE ON USE OF

(By Edna Everett, Author Of the

In speaking Of the needs of a power
tv-stricken family of our acquaint-
ance, friend once said to me, in
shocked and disappearing tones, "And

not enough to eat, and are always

serves help and no sympathy. A p'-

The piano, which was the only OBJ.

Music, in that home, as in every

and clothing. Why expect the poor to
be satisfied with food alone while their
souls starve for the things that make
life worthwhile, and, in many cases:
barely endurable.

MISSIONARY TALKS.
ON CHINESE WORK

In chapel last Saturday morning the
students and faculty of the State
Teachers College enjoyed a very. in
teresting talk by Miss josephine
Horne, a missionary Of China. She is
a graduate of Carleton College, Min
nesota, and is a sister of Mrs. Stanley
Mythaler. She has done missionary
work in North China particularly in
the province Of Shansi for six years.
Miss Horne first gave description
Of the province of Shansi. She said
that in North China unlike South
China. it is very dry and therefore
very dusty. The dust seeps through
he cracks and crevices and gets in at
he windows making it quite a prob
.em to keep the houses clean.

J. w. Knable of Sanborn, reports
having shipped 10000 pounds Of poul-
try from that station since October,
the larger part of this being turkeys.
We are unable to get exact figures on
the shipment of this class of farm
produce from Valley City but we know
the shipments to have been large.
Large shipments have also been made
from other points IN the county;
Barnes County farmers have realized
a large sum of money from shipments
of this nature and as poultry is about
the only farm produce which yields de,
cent returns, with the exception of
dairy products, we are glad to see our
local men going in for this class OF
produce. 1t is to be hoped that d.
versifcation in this manner Will re-
coup the losses which our farmers
have suffered the past two years.
