COMMUNITY SERVICE FOR ALL LOCALITIES PLANNED Fred P. Mann Declares This to Be Aim of National Com- unity Association (By United Press) Fargo, N. D., August 23---An ex- pert community service in each local- ity in the United States is the aim of the National Community Association according to Fred P. Mann, of Devils Lake, N. D. The organization is to start in Minnesota, South Dakota and Montana. + The National Community Associ- ation is the outgrowth of an organi- zation, which has been operating in North Dakota for thirteen years. The trustees are: Fred Irish of Fargo, P. J. Nelson’ of Slayton, Ru- dolph Lee of Long Prairie and Joel Eastman of. Ottawa, Kansas. Among the activities of the associ- ation will be the building of commu- nity houses, athletic rooms and the teaching of better farming. the basement of the church. All ladies are urged to be present. WISEHAUPT WILL TALK AT | __ ASSOCIATION_ LUNCHEON STEALING LICENSE * PLATES LATEST FAD The latest thing in the stealing business recently developed is the ripping of license plates from cars. About two days ago someone ripped the plates from C. W. Jewett’s sedan. The tag number is B-73-18. Recent orders from the secretary of state’s office to warn all owners of cars that they must have the new license plates properly displayed is believedqto be the cause of these law- breakers. They perhaps have no new license number plates and are resort- ing to any and all means of obtain- ing one, so that the sheriff or his dep- uties will not arrest them. 1t will be a difficult matter for any- one to use another’s number plate, and notices are being issued to watch for the proper plate on the proper class of cars, | The regular business meeting of the Civic and Commerce association will be held tomorrow after the noon luncheon in the association rooms. Howard J. Wisehaupt, the business “doctor,” who is giving a series of talks this week to the business men, will address the meeting tomorrow. Mr. Wisehaupt has a message for members of the association which will be well worth while hearing. The regular business of the asso- ciation will also be taken up. HEARING RESUMED FOR SEVEN CENT CAR FARE St. Paul, August 23.—The state warehouse commission resumed hear- ings today on the application for a T-cent street car fare in Minneapo- lis.
