ty good arguments will have to be
brought before the Grand Lodge to
obtain their favorable decision for

Of the strongest in the state and can
make their wants known before the

good argument for the location of the

the state with the natural advantages
which Valley City enjoys. If it is the
intention of the order to locate their

Valley City will receive the favorable

BOOTLEGGING

tiers in "Channing of the Northwest"

audience may see him for what he is
a william but the drinking population
will lnot beable to withhold their SYM
pathy for a man who will take such
chances in the fine endeavor of trying
to quench Americas thirst.
"Pat" Hartigan plays the part and
none is better fitted for it. Mr.. Har-
tigan looms up on the horizon we'll ov-
er six feet and strips at around 1876
pounds. He is as hard as rocks and

logger has to be.

Today is the Norwegian Fourth Of
July. The Norwegians of the city are
not holding any particular celebration
of the date but nevertheless it holds
as strong an appeal to many of them
as our own Independence Day does to
American born citizens. Many peo-
pie who have been born in foreign
countries are fully as good citizens of
this country as native born citizens
but they still have a warm spot in
their hearts for their mother country
and their own Independence Day has
as much significance to them as has
the Independence Day of their adopt
ed country. This is as it should be
as it in no way affects their alleg-
lance to this country and the man
who did not have a kindly feeling to-
ward the land Of his birth would be
peculiar citizen indeed.

MORE INTEREST
IN CLUB WORK

Increased interest in boys and girls
club work in the state, manifested by
indications Of an increase in enroll
ment of more than 500 this spring, is
being accompanied by greater later
est among adults also, according to
H. f. Killing, state leader of boys and
girls clubs, who has just returned
from visits to clubs in Is counties of
North Dakota. y
Potato, poultry, livestock breeding,
and also dairy projects seem to he
showing the largest increase this
spring, although clothing projects of
the girls still lead all projects i'm uutss-
bers enrolled, stated Mr.. Killing. sTn
potato projects the members are grow
ing seed plots to produce better seed,
Better quality of poultry, higher pro-
duction, and more mercEantabse eggs
are aims of the poultry projects in
which many young people are taking
over the home farm flocks on 8 DEF
centage basis. In the livestock pro-
jects, stress is being laid on growing
good breeding stock. There is also an
increased interest in dairying, althu
members are at present thinking more
of raising feed and of preparing for
dairying in other ways, than of breed
ing stock at once.''
!! Club work as a means of actually
solving community problems is ap-
pealing more and more to adults in
communities where club work is in
progress, according to Mr.. Killing.
While it is commonly recognized tnzT
club work in general is valuable, train
ing for the young people, the stress
that is being laid in North Dakota on
undertaking projects that are vital
problems to the local community is
arousing new interest in the work -
Some 5000 club members are now
organizing their projects for the year.
Counties which have recently been
visited by Mr.. Killing, and by the as
sistant state leader, Miss Irene DuHue
are Ward, Bottineau, Towner RoEette,.
