excuse was that he was en-
gagged on a plan which he
thought might possibly double
the business and he had be-

he had forgotten his watch.
The plan might have been
all right, though it turned out
not to be, but in dealing with
1t at the wrong time he caused
the boss to miss a train and
lose an order.
He was forever writing mem
oranda on matters outside his
department, while neglecting
the routine duties for which
he was paid. He was usually
late to the Office because he
had gone out of his way. to
make a call which he believed
might be Of benefit to the
company.

Elections Obsolete
In VAUDEVILLE

Walkervil1e. March 1.-THE city
of Walkervillc will not hold a mu-
nicipal election this year, the 18th
since the city decided elections
we're "just a lot of bother.
The people of Walkerville never
officially decided not to hold cleo.
tions, but back in 1913 neither pol
iticians nor Others filed announce
ments of candidacy; so officials
just continued in office.
In the years since there has
been no political activity, although
the personnel of the city council
and occupants Of the mayors Of
flee have changed frequently.
The VAUDEVILLE system, highly
regarded by the residents of the
community, is simplicity itself.
The city council appoints the may
or, who, in turn, appoints council
members.
This year, Mrs. Monetta Snydar
filed for the office of city treas
urer, and Walkerville was almost
forced to set up election machin-
cry. The woman, however. with

already was filled by an appoint

BENEVOLENT SOCIETY
GROWING In NUMBERS

M. E. Degree and A. n. Nelson,
the Flaxton, N. d., men who are
here in the interest of a Wolf
Point Benevolent Society, say that
they are meeting with excellent
response to their plan and signing
members at an encouraging rate.
They are much gratified by the
friendliness and courtesy of the
Wolf Point people.
AS mentioned last week, the Be
nevolent Society plan is simple in
detail and provides a financial aid
at the lowest possible cost to sur
vivors of a member who meets
death. Eleven hundred pepole of
the same or adjoining neighbor-
hoods mutually but singly pledge
to pay a dollar to the beneficiary
of any deceased member of the
society. Payment must be made
within 80 days after notification
or the delinquent member is
stricken from the membership roll
and loses his benefit rights. Ano-
Their person is taken from the head
of the waiting list in his stead.
The cost of notifying all mem
bers, when a death has occurred,
and collecting in the money is de-
Quoted from the S1,100 and the
balance of something over 1000
is paid to the beneficiary. Anyone
removing from the vicinity may
remain a member by keeping the
secretary advised of his address.
Any person of either sex, 16 years
of age and not over so %(nearest
birthday, and not afflicted with
a disease, may become a member
of this society by the payment of
one dollar as a membership fee.
Deaths are said to seldom exceed
