ings are now being arranged with
the largest theatres. In Wash
ington, ne will appear at the Ma
tional theatre April 20. From
there he will go to Baltimore,
Philadelphia. New York, etc.
A matter of interest in the tour
of Father Byrne is that he viii
appear in joint recitals with Dr..
Alfred Warsaw who has appeared
several times in this city and who
has won the hearts of all by his
marvellous tenor voice. DR.. War
saw has accepted the invitation
of the Catholic Daughters and
with Mrs. Warsaw will be then
guest on Saturday evening.
Some idea of the Importance
attached TO the Byrne-Warsav
rccitals is the fact that Lowest
seats will be S1.O0 in any city
and boxes will sell at So. Tn,
opportunity offered by the Cath,
Ollie Daughters to hear this ia,
nous Priest actor evidently is ap-
preciated as the ticket sale is
the best reported in this city.

excellent. There are nine cars IN
the exhibit including all of the
latest 1928 creations. The auto
mobiles attracted considerable at
tention among the big throng and
many of the dealers expect re-
suits from the exhibit of their
cars. There are ten machines IN
the exhibit.
The exhibitors arranged IN
alphabetical order follow:
Aero Auto Company the spring
model touring Chevrolet and the
Chevrolet coupe.
The Belle Haven Garage has
the four cylinder sport model
Hupmobile.
Dickerson's Garage has five
passenger Phaeton REQ.
Duncan's Garage, has the 1923
spring model Dodge touring car
on exhibition.
The Fletcher Motor Company

Myers Brothers have two eX-
hibits of the Nash car, one a
four and the other a six cylin-
der model.
Remschel Auto Company has
on exhibition a seven passenger
Lincoln and Ford touring car.
To go into the details of a
description of these cars would
be utterly impossible. Suffice it is
say that all of the cars represent
the latest of the factories rep
resented and the prices are
within the reach of those with 4
lean pocketbook and there are
cars suitable for the most fasti-
dious.
Prizes were won by the follow
ing at the booth of r. f. Knight

the winners if they call tonight.

IN MEMORIAM

In loving remembrance of my
son, WILLIAM n. j. TOTHlLL,
who died one year ago today.
A young life crushed and broken
A call responded to,
Then God in mercy took him
Beyond the sky so blue.
We hope to meet again
In that heavenly land above,
Where there is no more pain
! And all is peace and love.
As one by one friends are taken
And we are left behind,
It only leaves our Faith unshak-
en-,
Which brings-us peace of mind

success or failure Of both Cross and
Resurrection, and Luke has gathered
up more Of these than any other and
the lesson holds two stories that are
as vital now as when given.
THE PRAYERS ENDURANCE
A man fully competent was apply
ing for a new position. 1t meant a
salary running into thousands and
was eagerly sought. The head of the
firm finally told him that his qualifi-
cations We're such that the desk would
have been his except for the fact that
he had changed jobs too frequently
and by the time he had become profit
able to them they would probably be
seeking for a successor. His trouble
was that he didn't stick. Men who
have accomplished much have all
been good "stickars," no matter what
the field Edison, Agazzis, Darwin,
Goodyear, Grant and a thousand 9th
ers fought it out on this line and
won their victories because Of it.
Prayer is not something divorced
from life, but a part Of it and that
which is marked gold" in the world
is not rated "tinsel" in the King
dom. Honesty is at par in any world,
truthfulness weighs the same in all
scales and endurance is a soul quail
ity that is as valuable in the prayer
life as in business, art, study or in
friendship. The story Of the unjust
judge emphasizes that quality and
not his chicanery. If he could be
moved then certainly Father God
eager to give the best to His children
was still more open to appeal. But
there are many times when the
granting Of the request must be de-
layed. 1t may be thru. the imita-
tons of the child. Az gallon of milk
can not be compassed by a quart cup
however eager the owner may be to
let me have it. The Mauretania will
never sail the Susquehanna, nor a
battle-ship be seen on Mountain
Lake. Now if 1 have asked more
than my hands can hold the great
Economist isn't going to waste a
blessing but will increase my power;
will l stick? Have l the endurance
to grow toward the thing God desires
to give or will I accept the delay as a
refusal? Can l endure the exper-
fence, q asked for patience and He
gave me pain?" Will keep the
child's attitude of expectancy and
trust? When my answer is in a form
different from my asking as when the
mother of Augustine prayed that he
might stay beside her but instead he
went to Rome, (where he found his

Lord Wis 1 stick, Jesus knew now
vital to the life Of the prayer and the
life Of prayer this quality is and
urged it upon His followers.
TEE PRAYERS SINCERITY
Immediately after he drew another
picture that has gr'ppsd the heart
Of the world. Swift word-strokes
leave the inefTectable images Of
Pharisee and Publican in their prayer
hour. They were in the same loca-
ton and were praying to the same
God. The first fel5 himself to be a
prodigy Of goodness. In fact he was
alone in it for he was not as other
men. 1t is another case of "They are
all out of step but my Danny" 'If
a man tells you" said a shrewd old
carpenter chat men aren't honest
and must be watched, you do just as
he tells you; watch HIM" 1t is likely
true that he was all that he said,
honest, just, chaste, patriotic, ritual
perfect, but he who takes himself out
of the human kind has a r'ng off in
sincerity that sounds Ike a pebble in
tin can. It is little "P' rattling
in n big world. He wasn't praying
at all, he was pattng his own back.
The second was in a class by him
self also but it was at the other ex-
treme for he calls himself, "The sin
ner." He felt his loneliness as a su-
preme disaster and longed for fellow
ship with both men and God. He was
utterly sincere and that is one Of the
vital factors in any prayer. Let
your real self speak," was what
Jesus was saying, don't wear a mask
in your prayer hour"
TIE PRAYERS RESPONSE
There is always an answer; "this
man went down justified" Perhaps
the best illustration is in the Geth-
. semane picture where Jesus is prone,
bleeding in eXhausting agony for hew
/ long no one may say but he came
out of it with such power that men fel
from sheer fear-soldiers who were
accustomed to facing all sorts of dan
! gers and men. 1t was the spiritual
reinforcement from His prayer.
Jesus caught aside the curtain and
gave glimpse of what lies behind it
in this prayer sequel of Pharsee and
/ Publican. There was answer for
them both but it is the answer to the
life rather than to the lips. Compla-
cent and content how could the Phari-
see receive anything? His life for
bade it. The other needed all things
and his life was like a dry sponge
cast into the sea with every pore
drinking thirstily that it's awful sens

Of want might be stayed. And Jesus
said that he had his desire. God is
moved by the cry of His child and is
swift to give what the life is hungry
for. The life that sought self found
more self; the life that sought God
found Him. Crying may be good for
a child but it brings mother a.so.

Girl, Fifteen, Is
Student at "U"

Grand Forks, N. D., May "a --
Reading Thackeray's Vanity Fair at
the age Of seven and Dickens David
Copperfield even before that age and
several of the works Of Ibsen at the
age of nine, are some of the things
which have brought Miss June Ba-
tie at fourteen into prominence as
being the youngest student enrolled
at the state university.
Miss Bate, the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. A. r. Bate of Omemee,
now just past her fifteenth birth
day anniversary, learned to read
at the age of three. She never spent
day in school until she entered
high school, but was educated at
home by her mother.
Miss June is enrolled in the uni-
versity in the general liberal arts
course. She finished high school in
three years and entered the univer-
sity with an average of % and 95.
As yet, she has not decided in what
she will major, nor has she decided
upon a vocation after she finishes
her course.

COL. E. B. LITTLE TAKES issue
WITHPLAN OF FINANCING new
WATER PLANT FOR BISMARCK

and paid for by water sales. The
balance of the city engineers esti-
mate of the cost of the plan of
S4Sl 900, including the interest on
warrants is to be assessed as special
ments against the real estate
of the city. The following of this
plan will place an unjust burden on
the real estate taxpayers of the city
as such method will relieve 36 per-
cent of the total assessed valuation
of the city from any burden in the
payment of this part of the con-
struction OF the plant. All of the
personal property together with the
property of corporations amounting
to $2,l92,725 in 1922 will escape its
just proportion Of this expense
while it will all be borne by the
real estate of the city which amount
ed to $3,747,9O4 in the year 1922.
The benefits derived from water
works plant is nearly as great 20
the personal property owners as 1T
is to those owning real estate and
for this reason they should bear
their just portion of the expense of
the construction of the plant unless
their share should be reflected IN
increased rents throughout the city.
Method Adopted For Payment Of
Construction
In the past all improvements OF
any magnitude including the three
paving contracts, the sewer con-
tracts including the 36 in. sewer con-
structed last fall have been paid for
by the issuance of special assess
ment warrants to the contractors
which they have agreed to accept
and have bid on the interest which
they would accept on said warrants
not exceeding the legal limit of 7
percent, new method has been
adopted by the city for the payment
of the construction or purchase of
a municipal water plant, the method
adopted is quoted from the adver-
tisements for bids. "Any bonds or
special assessment warrants issued
in payment for the construction OF
any part of the water works sys-
tenn will be sold by the board of city
commissioners and the contract or
paid in cash.. This is radical de-
