Edmore Herald-News: Harry Knee
shaw Of Devils Lake one of the hustl-
ing insurance writers of that city,
visited here the first of the week. Mr..
Kneeshaw is one Of the directors of
the Boy Scout band in his city, and
while conversing with him he told the
Herald-News that the organization
had lost the service of twelve of the
oldest and best musicians, due to the
fact that they had finished school in
Devils Lake and were either going
somewhere else to attend or had ac-
cepted employment. One other thing
that is giving the organization con-
siderable concern is the decision that
has been handed them from the nat
ional organization to the effect that
the band cannot continue as a Boy
Scout band and yet play engagements
outside of their city. This practically
stops the band from being CONNER
cial aggregation. Just what action
will be taken is not known but it has
been intimated that it was probable
that the band would Withdraw from
the scout movement in order that it
have the opportunity to take care of a
part Of it's finances.

youngsters education practical and
of use to him or her in the walks Of
life it was absolutely necessary that
the faculty have the cooperation not

Redmond's Truck
Robbed by Thieves

Last Saturday evening between the
hours of nine and ten one of the Max
we'll trucks standing on the lot at the
rear of the Redmond garage, was rob-
bed of its storage battery, all the tools
in the tool box, and a quantity of
hard oil. The fleet of six trucks,
which are being used to haul grain,
were parked on the lot back of the
garage shortly before nine o'clock
that night. Mr.. Redmond was in his
office until about ten o'clock when he
went out to use one of the machines
to do some hauling, and found the
cushions of all six trucks turned up
side down. Upon closer investigation
he found the battery, tools and hard
oil missing. The trucks were then
run in front of the garage, where they
were parked during the balance of
the night.

Flood of Requests
for A. c. Walnuts

A. F. Yeager, horticulturalist at
the North Dakota Agricultural col
lege, is convinced that there is
tremendous power in newspaper
publicity. About two months ago Mr..
Yeager gave out small news item
to the press to the effect that the col
lege had 20 black walnut trees in
bearing and would furnish nuts for
seed to any one desiring them.
In response to this news item there
has come flood Of letters from all
parts of the state, and from as far
away as Pennsylvania on the east
and Oregon ON the west. The re-
quests came in such quantities that
he was obliged to get out a form let
ter in answering them. All requests
from outside the state have been re-
fused. The letters are still coming in
daily, sometimes 10 and Is coming
in with one mail.
Evidently many people are aware
of the three outstanding advantages
of the black walnut tree" says Mr..
Yeager. "These three advantages are:
1t makes splendid shade tree, the
nuts have a piquant flavor and the
lumber brings a high price. There
will be very wide distribution Of
these trees throughout the whole
state, as result of those few line
of publicity"

department which can accommodate a
few more pupils than have already

KIWANIS WILL
HAVEGLEE CLUB


whose membership includes some of
the best songsters in the world, is
about to organize a Glee Club COM
posed entirely of Kiwanians, and when
this gets nicely started it will take
a back seat from nothing Of it's kind
ever heard of. Rev Geo. Loftness of
this city, who is a member of the
club has very kindly consented to dir
ect the new musical organization, and
his past experience in work of this
kind together with the talent he has
to work on isenough to convince
anyone that the Glee Club will be
something out of the ordinary.
At the regular luncheon of the
Kiwanis club last Tuesday President
Bert Baldwin announced that Rev.
Loftness had consented to direct a
Glee Club, and that inasmuch as Grand
Forks, Fargo and Watertown, S. D.,
made big hits at the district con-
vention Of the club recently held at
Grand Forks with Glee Clubs that
were not half as good as what could
be organized here, it was up the Xiv
anians of Devils Lake to get ready
for the next convention to be held
at Watertown, S. D., next summer
and show other clubs that this has
some real musical talent. All Kiwan-
ian songsters are requested to report
to Rev. Loftness at the earliest pos
sible moment so as to get the new
organization started.

CUSTODY OF
BOYS TAKEN
FROM ARENTS

The five boys who were recently
arrested, and who confessed to num-
ber of thefts during the summer were
sentenced, Friday, to the State Train
ing School at Mandan until they are 21
years of age, but the sentence was
suspended in each case, placing the
boys on parole, and putting each under
the custody of the parole officer.
All of the boys must be at their
homes at nine o'clock, except on Sat-
urday nights, when they may be out
till ten. The court has taken away
from the boys parents the latter's
custody of them, though the boys
are to do what they are told byNtheir
parents. The boys, being now wards
of the state, must make regular re-
ports to their parole officers.
Two Of the boys must leave the
city, and stay on some farm to work
and go to school until their parole ex-
pires.
Each boy must attend church at
least once a week; must not leave
Ramsey county without permission of
the court, and must find work, and
pay for damages done to automobiles
and other property during the sum-
mer.
District Judge c. W. Buttz gave
the boys pertinant lecture on Thurs
day, appealing to their better selves,
and made the boys feel decidedly peni-
tent. The boys were then taken from
the courtroom while the Judge talked
to the parents. tMuch of the blame
for the boys going wrong diverts to
the parents" the court told them, :.It
is your duty to watch your children,
and appeal to you, if you have other
children younger than those now in
trouble, to talk to them early in life
and keep your rold on them. You
should not permit your children to
be on the streets nights, but should
keep them at home where they be-
long, and then they will not get into
trouble.
