girl than the meeting in Bismarck Of
Girl Scout leaders from this and
neighboring states.
Their methods of operation copied
largely after the very successful Boy
Scout movement, the aims of girl
scouting are essentially the same as
Of boy scouting. to improve the hu-
man material at hand, to guide the
young and impressionable mind in
the right direction, provide clean fun
and healthful exercise for the grow
ing body.
Underlying these direct aims are
those of a secondary but not less
important nature. To make sure
that every girl has opportunity to
acquire womanly Ideals, to keep girls
out of mischief, out of the police
courts and to give helpful advice on
the many dangers which confront
every young woman.
Success Is gained when the girl
scouts have contributed to the de-
velopment of a woman who has an
understanding of the world in which
she lives without knowing too much
about it; who can live with her sis
tiers in comradeship and amity, who
has learned that peace and happiness
can be built on friendship, love and
service.
Such women make good mothers,
good workers and good citizens.
The Girl Scout organization is to
be congratulated for it's part in the
development OF better facilities and
better opportunities for girls in this
region. It is entitled to the whole
hearted support of the public at large.

Armistice he returned home. He
had not had an actual lapse Of
memory - or rather it is
difficult to explain, he did have
for a time, for he remembered
very little while he was first in
the German hospital and later in
the prison camp. His memory
seemed to stop that last day Of
his leave. His wedding day. He
was married, he told us, in the at
ternoon and left directly after the
ceremony to 60 back to the front.
Since his return home he has re-
called his journey to the front, his
few days Of service, his last flight,
and his experience as prisoner.
But he has a fixed idea. The idea
concerns itself with the girl we
have not been able to trace. Moth

Making Political Football of
District Courts
(Hazelton independently

District Judge VIM. H. Hutchinson
OF LaMoure, N d., was visitor in the
village last Saturday. He said he was
not worrying much about the recall
proceedings, it being so utterly unjust
that he did not believe folks would
take 1t seriously enough to spend
some $4,000 of the taxpayers money
for q special election; but if it did de-
velop he would fight to the finish, and
abide by the result gracefully-because
one thing they could not take away
from him was his self-respect. He
stated, also that the leaders of the re-
call movement had deliberately misled
the delegates to the meeting held a
short time ago. and had they stated
the facts in the case, not a man pres
ent would have voted in favor Of the
recall.
The case upon which the leaders
based their grounds for recall was one
IN which the Judge had absolutely no
part. The true facts being that the
county commissioners had sold farm
for back taxes. Then the original own
er wished to repossess the land and
came into Judge Hutchinson's court
to try the case. According to law, be-
fore they can try a case Of this kind
the original owner must make a de-
post with the treasurer for the
amount OF taxes for which the land
was sold. They had not made the de.
post and the Judge placed the case a!
the end of the calendar to give then
time. When court was over they sti.
had not made the deposit, and askee
for 80 days time, which was given. A
the end Of the thirty days no deposit
had yet been made and they wer'
given an additional go days-an,
when the sixty days was up they ha,
still not made the required deposit
and Of course the case could not b
tried.
That, in a nutshell, Is a history Q
the alleged grievance as given to tn
editor.
The petitions have been circulate
in this community, it Is understood
but as far as is known, not man
signatures were obtained.

Graduation Season Ends


This years graduation season nears
its close in a much more cheerful at
mosphere than most of us had hoped
for. Our local hospitals have grad
uated their nursing classes for this
year: country schools have largely
held their commandments: Bismarck
high school said "bon voyage" to its
class of 1888 on Thursday evening
and the exercises at st. Mary's paro-
chial school will end the festivities.
TO all of these young people every
true American wishes the best OF good
fortune, a stout heart and the inner
stamina which contributes largely to
success. He wishes for them the abil-
ity to remould this sphere on which
we live to make it better place. He
realizes that this Is not the best pos
sible world.
Soon we will find these young peo-
pie as both associates and COMPETE
tors In the pursuits Of life. They
have q place to make and the world
must make q place for them. Other
wise they would be relegated to a
human scrapheap about which no
sturdy young American should have
personal knowledge.
There have been easier times. so
far as graduates , are concerned.
Things are improving but they have
not yet approached the point where
the demand for labor exceeds the
supply. In short, jobs still are hard
to get and many young men and
women are going to find that out by
travelling the road Of experience.
Hence the need for the stout heart.
Those who possess it will keep in
mind the fact that now, as never be-
fore, persistence eventually wins Sue
cess. They will not be unduly dis
couraged at possible rebuffs or initial
failures, and soon they will>find that
they have been absorbed into the
commercial and professional COM
munity, gradually losing their iden-
tity as beginners as they acquire ex-
perience and competence.
And then, the first thing they
know, they will be oldsters, extending
a helping hand to younger folks who
are following In their footsteps.
Orators are fond of telling grad
yates that this event marks turn
ing point Of life, and this is unques-
tionably true. But in a larger sense
it Is just part OF life and one which
diminishes in imports nce to the in
dividual with the passage of the
years. Many trunk holds sheep
skin which once was highly priced.
And so, without thought of being
"pollyannaish" we wish for our grad
yates of 1888 a happy life and full
one with the joys outweighing the
