WILLISTON ASKS
WHEAT GUARANTY
RESOLUTIONS TO BE SENT TO
NORTH DAKOTA CONGRESS-
MEN AND SENATOR'S

Williston, N. D., March 20.-The
board of directors OF the Williston
Commercial club unanimously pass
ed resolutions commencing the ef-
forts being made in congress to re-
vive the government grain corpora
ton. Secretary S. T. Westdal was
instructed to send copies OF the res
olutiOn to congressman and senator's
from North Dakota and the presi-
dent.
Some time ago Congressman Sim
clair from North Dakota introduced
a bill in the house which provides
for guaranteed price on wheat,
under a plan similar TO the one that
was in effect during the war. A
similar bill was introduced In the
senate by Senator Ladd from North
Dakota. The guaranteed price would
be based on statistics giving the
average cost Of productfOn. A board
would fix the price to be paid for
that years croD at the beginning Of
B the season. adding a reasonable pro-
fit to the average cost OF produc-
ton.
Probably the Williston CONNER
cial club holds the distinction of be-
ing the first commercial organize
ton In the United States to indorso
the plan. There was practically no
opposition to the resolution by mem
bers of the board Of directors. They
said that they could see nothing in
the revival Of the grain corporation
and a guarantee OF cost Of produc-
tion for. wheat that couid possibly
injure any business or industry in
this section OF the country or any
where IN the United States. for that
matter On the other hand they
expressed the opinion that the en-
actment Of the laws would cause an
immediate revival Of business and
industry.

BOWBELIIS HIGH SCHOOL
TO HAVE SONG CONTEST

The local high school initiated an
annual song contest, which will be
patterned considerably after thai
of the Carney contest at the state
university. The event will be con-
Quoted as an interclass affair. and
each class will be required to give
the following numbers: Sing "Am-
erica" and "Star Spangled Banner;"
sing two original songs; have one
vocal and one instrumental solo,
and give two original yells. Some
of the important rules of the con-
test will be: Sevenry-five per cent
of each class must participate in
the group numbers, no music scores
may be used either by accompan-
list or singers. Decision of judges
will BE- principally on Interpretation
quality of tone. original compost
ton, precision and general effective
ness. 1t is believed that the initia-
tion of this inter-class event viii
give added interest in music in the
school. insure the memoriZing OF
songs which should be known by
all, and serve to promote good spirit
in inter-class rivalry.
George III. Phelps of the Burke
Abstract Co. will be the sponsor for
the event. he having offered a low
ing cup as an award to the winning
class; hence it will be known as

The stockholders Of the Farmers
Cooperative Store, Powers Lake,
which is composed or FARMERS in
that vicinity. has recently purchased
the lot and building in which they
have been doing business.
The farmers took this store over
year ago and have been doing a
very good business ever since. They
have enlarged their stock and are
doing more business from month to
month. We predict that 49," will
be one of the largest and best busi-
ness houses in Burke county in the
near future.
The Powers Lake territory has
long been considered very progress
siye and prosperous community
which is largely responsible for the
success of this farmer-owned store.
The stockholders may consider
themselves very fortunate in being
able to secure a man like J. l..
Sorem as manager OF this institu-
ton. He has been with the store
since it's origin and much of the
success is due to his careful and ef-
ficient management.
1t was rumored that this store
was On LNG rOCkS anu dDouC IodOy

parties circulating such rumors
would look into the matter closely
they would find that this store is

pearances.
The following officers are in
charge of the store at present: Ole

and manager. There is also a

when the espionage act has been re-
