ROBERT C. STANLEY, Cit,
THE FORUM

Dear Mr.. Trubshaw: - l want to
say "thank you" again, very emphat-
ically, to the generous people of Val
ley City for their continued hearty
response to the call of the needy of
the western part of the state. We
shipped twenty-five boxes again yes
terday, some of them very large box
es. About eight hundred pairs of
shoes have been sent in and other ar
ticles too numerous to count.
There will be another shipment to-
ward the end of the week. Please
say to those who have more than they
desire to give that we are in need of
clothes and shoes for school children
from the age Of seven to fourteen or
fifteen. These children are being de-
prived of school because of no clothes
to wear.
Most cordially and gratefully,
J. J. DALTON,
Asst. Sec. Red Cross.

AN APPEAL FOR CLOTHES AND
SHOES FOR CHILDREN

An appeal has come to the local
Red Cross from county in the west
ern part of the state to which moth
ing has been sent. The County Supt.
of Schools in this county reports for
ty children who cannot attend school
because of no clothes and no shoes.
The Red Cross office has clothes
enough for about fifteen boys and
eight or ten girls. To respond to
this appeal the local chapter will need
clothes and shoes for some twenty
five children. Not only suits for boys
and dresses for girls as we'll as shoes
for both boys and girls. but also un-
dergarments for both sexes.
If families having such articles will
leave them at the Red Cross offices
under the First National Bank with
in the next two or three days they
will render much needed service and
will have the full appreciation of the
local Red Cross Chapter.

venture. While the late administra-
ton is partly at fault for the large
loss at Drake. they cannot be blamed
for the entire loss. Any administra-
ton will lose money in any govern
ment owned project because the prin-
ciple Of government ownership, while
sounding nice, is not practical. Of
course the recent elections show. that
the majority of the voters in the state
do not agree with us in this statement
and evidently more costly lesson
will be required to convince them that
it is a fact. However, the taxpayers
cannot be consistent when they de-
lnand lower taxes and also support
state ownership.

THE FLOOD OF LAWS

Everyone in the City would be in
jail, if all the ordinances were enforc-
ed, reports the City Clerk. Whenever
fire alarm is sounded, ordinances
are unconsciously violated by hun
dreds. Many Of these ordinances have
never been enforced, while others
have become obsolete. To making laws
in this Country there is no end, while
toward enforcement there is a gener-
al Indifference.
DR.. A. R. Hatton, summoned here
as charter expert, in recent ad-
dress showed that to this weakness is
due much BICYCLING and futility in
municipal accomplishment. Hereto
fore, thinks DR.. Hatton, municipal
problems have gathered largely over
giving expression to the will Of the
majority. This majority has been
satisfied, when it's will was written
into law. From now on the greatest
municipal problem will center in put
ting into effect the will of the major
ity.
In city, state and nation admins
tration is now seen to be as impor-
tant as legislation. They are really
twin processes, each incomplete with
out the other.
To this American penchant for
making laws and not enofrcing them
is due the flood of laws that perplex
and bewilder even legal experts. In
this Country today there are more
than eighty thousand laws standing
on the statute books. Many Of these
are obsolete and disregarded. Occa-
sionally one is unearthed by some
delving lawyer, hard pressed to sup
port the claims of his client. But for
the most part they are dust-covered
and forgotten.
Fewer laws, carefully written and
enforced, would do far more for the
cause of order and good citizenship
in this fair land than the present de-
LUCE of laws carelessly written and
disregarded. If Canada and Great
Britain show a much better crime
record than this Country, it is large
ly because a new law in these neigh
boring countries expresses a we'll de-
fined public sentiment that insists on
laws enforcement as we'll as enact
ment.- Minneapolis Journal.

THE DREAMER"

Many times l have wondered
What life of luxury could lie.
With nothing to do but spend money
And servants to wait upon me.
l have dreamed Of untold riches
That would win the envy of John D
But dreaming has brought INC nothing
For Pm still a slave to drudgery.
l have longed for a life Of comfort,
For a palace like that of king,
For an auto that cost ten thousand
A private yacht and everything.
But longing, wondering and dreaming
Of wealth which can never be
Has caused me to turn gray headed
Twenty years before my time
So, dear friend, if you are a dreamer
Please take this humble advice;
There are things more precious than
money
For instance your sweetheart or
wife.

and took them to the club rooms.
These club rooms are large and we'll
fitted for the purposes Of the club,
having a meeting hall, club rooms
and kitchenette. A very nice program
was presented by the jamestown girls
and following the program entertain
ment consisted Of dancing and good
social time. A lunch was served at
the conclusion of the entertainment.
The locals were then taken to the va
rious homes of the Jamestown girls
and entertained for the night.
Yesterday morning there were AZ
girls at the Gladstone hotel for break
fast, the local girls being the guests
of the Jamestown club. After break
fast they all went to church, the ma
jority of the girls going to the Pres
hyterian church where special servi.
ces were being held for about 40
young men who were entering Junior
Masonry. -... r.
A very delightful lunch was served
to the guests at noon at the club
rooms and after lunch the girls were
taken for ride around the city.
They were then taken to the state
insane hospital and DR.. Gest personal
ly conducted the visitors through the
institution, showing them all the
points of interest and spending about
two hours with them. One Of the
features of this state institution is
the bakery where they have a large
electric oven in which they bake 1000
loaves of bread per day. The trip
through was decidedly interesting
and enjoyed immensely by the girls.

clubs plan on having get-together
picnic at Spiritwood Lake early this

R0TARIANS FETE
THEIR LADIES
Local Club Hold Banquet At The Ho-
tel Rudolf Last Night And Tell
OF Duluth Conference.

The Rotarians did not hold their
usual monday luncheon yesterday but
entertained their ladies at a Banquet
at the Hotel Rudolf last night.
There were about so guests for the
banquet which was very good and
thoroly enjoyed by everyone there.
Len Ward was chairman for the
evening and called on the different
members who attended the conference
at Duluth last week for talks on the
conference at Duluth. There were
several good talks but it was found
that Rotarians were not as loyal to
fellow members as might be expected
as the speakers took advantage Of
the occasion to tell of certain happen
ings which the different members
took part in. Evidently the Valley
City delegation got themselves into
many amusing predicaments from the
stories that were told.
There were several songs by the
assembly. These were led by Julius
B. Meyers with Mrs. Ed. Bloom at
the piano. The professor is a very
good leader but his voice seems tri-
file weak and this makes it hard to
follow him. However he got by last
night. -
The prettiest part of the entertain
ment opening the affair last night and
the part which caused the most COM
ment, was the performance given by
little Miss Mary Nugent. A large
white ball had been built and the
word Rotary" in black letters was
placed across the front. At the prop
err time this ball broke in half and
Mary stepped out. A Rotary wheel
had been provided. The flags of the
various nations were lying on ia
BILE and Miss Mary, picking up one Of
them, would give a short, graceful
dance and then place the flag in a
socket in the Rotary wheel. This was
repeated until the wheel was filled,
with the American flag occupying the
center position. The performance was
exceptionally we'll done. more partic-
ularly as Miss Mary is only six years
of age, and those present are unani-
nous in their praise of the little miss.
Miss Hellner Of the high school fac
ulty, directed the performance and is
to be congratulated on her ability in
this respect as she certainly had train
ed Miss Mary very well.
The decoration for the banquet hall
last night were streamers reaching
from TX: ceiling to the tables in an
arch shape. These streanlers were
orange .;.at. black in color. The Ro-
tary .shc2! was also in these colors.
These ladies' nights are very popu-
lar affairs and last nights banquet
was most thoroly enjoyed by every
one present. s
To Len Ward, who was chairman
for the evening, is due the credit for
the fine program given and the real
enjoyable time had.

N. DAK0TAN MISSING
FOURTEEN YEARS.

Cold Water, Mich, March ia
mystery that has puzzled Darlington,
N. D., authorities for the past four
teen years was solved today when
William Shiflet, who has been known
here as John Hartman, was found
near death from tuberculosis.
Fourteen years ago Shiflet disap-
peared from his home in Darlington
The town and countryside were search
ed for days as it was believed he had
been murdered.
Subsequently his mother and faith
er were killed and another son when
accused of the act, committed suicide;
influenza year or two later took the
last brother, with the exception Of
William, who had never been heard
from, thus wiping out the family, it
was believed.
William Shiflet was found here
thru clue furnished by Darlington
officers. When interviewed today he
said he was forced to leave home on
account of trouble with his father,
On account Of love for his mother he
had many times been tempted to re-
turn home, but the trouble with his
father kept him away, he said.
Doctors say the tuberculosis is so
far advanced that Shiflet can't live
longer than month or two.
