ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY Olive Roberts Barton

Nancy and Nick and Daddy Gander
helped Mister Sandman to sweep up
his spilled sand. Daddy Gander got
his magic dustpan and Nancy found
where the Old Shoe Woman kept her
broom and they soon had every grain
of it up
They didn't guess for one minute
that the greatest damage Of all had
been done quite outside the Old Shoe
House. They didn't know that when
the sand tickled their noses and
every one of them had sneezed his
head off nearly, that great many
grains had tioated out Of the patch
doorway and over the house tops to
the house that Jack built. And that
the party that Jack and Jill were
giving had come to a sudden end
Mister Piper, Toms father, who
was blowing out his cheeks like APP
Piles and playing merry jig on his
pipe. suddenly let his head sink on
his breast and began to snore a
The three fiddlers brought by King
Cole suddenly stopped their bows,
their fddles fell from their chins,
and their heads dropped over like
ten-pins.
King Cole himself dancing with
the Queen OF Hearts, was making a
gorgeous bow when the sleepy sand
struck him in the eye, and he sank
in heap at her feet-sound asleep.
The Queen herself. ready for a curt

And every one Of the Daddy Gan
der Land people from the Crooked
IAN TO the Sprats, fell asleep at
Jack and Jill's party. The Old Shoe
Woman and her children among
them.
Jack and Jill and Missez John, too,
fell asleep still looking for the miss
ing pies that the Twins had gone to
hunt. Missez John in the pantry,
Jill in the kitchen and Jack in the
cellar. For the house that Jack

deed.
Well. after the Old Shoe Woman's
house has been swept clean, Daddy
Gander and the Sandman and the
Twins got their wits together.
Il still haven't found my lost peo-
ple' said the Sandman.
"And we still haven't found the
lost pies" said Daddy Gander. "And
if we don't find them. Jacks party

Something must be done"
Lets go back" suggested Nick =.
That's a good ideal nodded the
Sandman "Maybe / can persuade
the old Shoe Woman's children to
come home to bed anyway.
SO off they went.
And you know what they saw
when they got there. Every single
soul as sound asleep as mummies.
But they saw something more, Tor
when they rushed back to the
kitchen there was every pie and
every cake and the cream freezer
and everything right in the cupboard
where Missez John had put them.
Not a thing had been touched.

turvy place this isl" cried poor
Daddy Gander. "a little while ago

ter Sandman"
There was mystery! And they
were soon to find it out.

ONE WAY or TELLING THE
WORLD

Some time ago DR.. II. l.. Walster,
agrOnOInist at the No. Dakota Ag-
ricultural College. made the asser-
ton that the State should tell the
World about its 1923 corn crop.
In line with this policy of tell
ing the World" the Association OF
Commerce Of Bismarck has pro-
NOTED what will be North Dakota
First Corn Show and which will be
held in the Capital City Jan. %, %
and "a.
The Forum wishes to indorse this
show. The State will benefit in two
ways al least; first, in ADVERT sing
the fact that it can raise just as
good corn as the recognized corn
belt, and second. in promoting
greater corn acreage within the
State.
Where corn is king, diversified
ton is carried on to much better
advantage. The constant increas-
ing of the crop from year to year
will mean more hogs. more COWS.
more sheep, and more poultry.
There is nothing tina. North d.
kota is certain that ii needs to do
more than to increase the number
CT hogs, COWS. sheep. and poultry.
Land which is good corn land is
valuable land because OF the very
fact THAT corn is one of the big ne
cessities in placing the farm on a
II month basis which is the only
SIRE basis for steady and GER
tain farm income.
Any means employed which will
be of assistance in the work CT pro-
noting the raising of corn is there
fore worthwhile. The Forum be-
lieves that the Corn Show at Bis
marck will help in doing that very
thing and likewise will serve to
tell the World" just what is being

PIONEER OF

Dickinson, N. D., Jan. 7.-Erank
Lish, pioneer resident and buslLess
man of Dickinson, died early Fri
day at San Antonio, Texas, where he
had gone month ago for the bene-
lit OF his failing health. News of
his passing came in brief telegram
to his children here. Mrs. Lish and
daughter, Miss Marguerite, were with
him when the end came. The tele-
gram did not state when the grief
stricken wife and daughter would
leave for the north with the body
but it is expected that they will arr
rive in Dickinson early next week.
|, For AZ years Mr.. Lish has been a
resident of Dickinson, coming here
when the west slope was little more
than a wilderness Inhabited only by
few settlers and Dickinson, a
struggling hamlet of houses and rail-
road buildings just erected.
AS president Of the Liberty Nat
ional bank and senior member of the
Lish Hardware company he was re-
garded as one of the city's most sub
stantfal business men. His long en-
perience made his counsel highly
valued. Of genial. kindly nature
he was beloved by all and the news
of his sudden passing comes as
great blow to the hundreds Of
friends and business associates.
