” and’ Dorothy . WEDNESDAY, JUNE’ 6, 1017. Alumni Banquet at McKenzie Friday to Close Festivities An elaborate program of toasts and) songs has been arranged by the en-| tertainment committee in charge, for the annual Alumni banquet of the high school, which will close the com- mencement festivities Friday evening at the McKenzie hotel. Mrs. Richard Penwarden will be the toastmistress. A coincidence in this feature of the program is that her oldest daughter, Miss Geraldine Penwarden, is a member of this year's graduating class. Only one other- member. of the alumni has had this honor. Mrs. John A. Larson and the Misses Ruthella and Esther Taylor, of the alumni, will sing, and McDon- ald’s orchestra will furnish music for the evening. Toasts will be. responded to by Supt. J. Maurice Martin, Angelo Hol- ta, president of the 1917 class; Miss Julia Budlong, Miss Carrie Haugen and Dongld McDonald. Miss Janet Fogerty, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Fogerty, who is valedictorian of her class, was also awarded the honor for the best toast prepared by the class. Miss Fogerty will give her toast during the banquet. The guests will assemble in the par- lors of the hotel at 8:30, and the banquet will be served at 9 o'clock. Miss Haugen, Miss Florence Smith, Mrs. Roy Logan and Donald McDon- energie! the entertainment com- mittee: ey’ are’ members of chtsia VE N912 " be “Whé dotmitiencement address. will be given Thursday evening in the Auditorium by ‘President Frank W. McVey of North Dakota university. Class Night Tuesday. Many interesting incidents happen- ing during the present school year were entertainingly given by members of the graduating class last evening during the class night exercises. The class history, given by Miss Christine Huber, and the class poem, by Paul Register, afforded much mer- riment. The class prophecy was giv- en by Ruth Jollie and it will not be the fault of the author if members of the 1917 class do ot occupy places of great distinction in after years. William Ross gave the class will. In interpretating the faculty Miss Geraldine Penwarden showed no pret- erence, but treated that honored body with splendid diplomacy. So well were the various members represent- ed that at times it was hard to tell if they. were on the stage or number- ed among the auditors. As Miss Pen- warden called the names of the in- structors, one of the lower classmen, representing the one named, would appear. The wardrobes of some of the faculties were worn to make it more realistic. Miss Janet Fogerty was the valedic- torian and Sigrid Alfson the saluta- torian. The musical program was pre- sented by the high school orchestra, the girls’ glee club, (Miss Wallie Dir- lam, pianist; Mr. Alfson, violinist, Es- ther Staley and Mr. Holta, pianists. The peace pipe was presented to Hugh Spangler, president of the jun- ior class by Mr. Holta. The exercises closed with the singing of the class song. Minot Military Wedding Of Interest.in Bismarck One. of the. mot elaborate. military weddings to’ be ‘staged! in''Minot | was soleninized Monday ‘morning at 11 o'clock in the First Baptist church, when Miss Aileen McGahan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. D. McGahan, be- came the bride of Captain Edgar L. Sorensen of the Washington coast artillery, stationed at Bellingham. Flags of the allied nations formed the improvised altar under which the bridal party stood. All the appoint- ments featured the national colors in the church and McGahan home, and the best man and the ushers were members of Company v. The bridal party was ascorted to the altar 'by a quota of the United States national guard, all in uniform The groom wore the full dress of his rank and his best man, Luther S.

The bride is a former resident of the capital city and is very well known here, where she has visited on many occasions. She is a cousin of ‘Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Patterson of the McKenzie.

Well we are hearing some croaking occasionally about -hard times and some real well’ founded complaints about high prices. But when money is more abundant than ever before known, war or no war, labor employed to its utmost, and crops good, prices are bound to be high. But it does not hurt like low prices—no money—no work and general depression. Well we have faith in the outcome and are having good trade and getting ready for better. We will more than double our stock of dry goods and notions and sell at our usual close. margins and give our customers the best the market affords and faithfully serve the public. ..

Has Some Handkerchief—‘Sandy” Macdonald of the city police force is sporting a rather unique handker- chief, whose border is composed of the flags of all nations worked in silk on a field of the same material, while Old Glory occupies a post of honor in one corner. The creation was wover in the Philippines, by native women, and was recently presented to Mr. Macdonald by a veteran of the Phil- ippines campaign. Its owner wears it with the corner showing the Amer- ican colors projecting from his breast pocket. “Tis a fine thing,” said San- dy, “but I hesitate to think what might happen if the handkerchief got switched around in my pocket and left the German flag showing.” WHY YOU SHOULD SAVE pa eee Government Figures Show That Only Nine Persons in 100 Have More Than $5,000 When They Die. For the young man who thinks it a manly thing to spend money freely and who sneers at the thrifty person as “stingy” and “mean,” here are a few facts that he may digest with profit, observes a writer in the Kansas City Star. Sixty-five of every 100 persons -dy- ing in this country have absolutely no estate; they die penniless. Of the re- maining 34 persons, 25 never accumu- ‘late more than $1,300 in their lifetime and die with less than that. Only nine persons in 100 have more than $5,000 when they die. Only two per cent of the whole popu- lation may be classed as “well-to-do.” Tho other 98 per cent of the people, of, this country have. only their wages from day. to day, or. are dependent upon relatives or, upon charity. Of every hundred persons, who reach the age of sixty-five no fewer than 97 are partly or wholly dependent upon rela- tives, friends or charity for food, cloth- ing or shelter. These figures are not mere estl- mates. They are taken from the gov- ernment census statistics and are ar- ranged and given out by the president of the American Society of Thrift, a society organized by some representa- tive business men who see a real dan- ger to our nation, in the American tendency to wastefulness. It will beiseen from these figures taught to young people. Tlie boy who, squanders his’ youth in riotous: living, expecting chance or luck to bring him a fortune later in life, should scan these figures and learn that he has just nine chances in 100 to ever accumulate 35,000 or more, and if he is to be one of the fortunate ones he must be- gin early to save. RIVER FLOODS AFFECT OCEAN | Destruction of Sea Fish Shows Disas- ters of This Kind Not Always Confined to Land. The disasters from river floods are not always confined to the land, but nay extend to the coastal waters of the ocean. In a late address of the Royal so- clety of New South Wales, Charles Hedley recalled two instances—in 1866 and 1891—of the sudden destruction of a large part of the mollusks of Port Jackson, as an effect of the temporary lessening of the salinity of the water, Mussels, oysters, limpets and _pert- winkles were destroyed, half of the fauna being killed in some places, but such animals as fishes and crabs were able to escape into deep water. The stench along shore became unbearable, Streaks and patches of blood-red dis- colored the waters of the harbor and it was concluded that the freshening of these waters permitted the rapid development of enormous swarms of a microscopic red Glenodinium, which suffocated the bivalves by clogging their gills. Their decay spread the de- struction. Certain Japanese reefs are known mysteriously “burnt,” animals and that thrift is a virtue that needs to, be}, ( i TYPES OF CLOSE HATS. By BETTY BROWN. New York, June 6.—Every woman requires a shade hat and almost every woman also needs some kind of close fitting headg ‘or motoring. No| longer will a silk sunbonnet or a chif-) fon veil answer the requirements of| an afternoon in an auto. | Women who give much attention to their clothes now prefer some at- tractive small hat of the regulation style, something which will be equally charming in a restaurant or a friend's parlor, something which will keep the hair from {blowing, something which will stay on without being grasped by beth hands when the car is in mo- | plants disappearing, and this ts at- tributed to fresh water from heary | river floods, in which marine algae j die, carrying death to associated or- ganisms. Population and Production. Between the thirteenth parallel of north latitude, which runs through New Orleans, North Africa, northern India and southern China, and the thir- tieth parallel of south latitude. which cuts through southern Brazil, the southern tip of Africa, and the south- ern part of Australia, is half the land area of the world outside the polar regions, and one-half the world's popu- lation. Yet the commerce of this great tropical belt, with half the land area | and half the world population, is but) one-sixth that of the international com- | merce of the world, and it has but} one-seventh of the world’s railways, | despite the fact that the temperate Wants Man’s Pay For War Women ETHEL M..SMITP Miss Smith of the National Ameri- can ‘Woman's Suffrage association is urging all fellow: members to cam- paign for treatment of women war workers on an equal basis with men.
