(M. Bour- quin kicked goal. Both elevens played hard and fast tball, neither seeming to have the tage. In the last half both ag- gregations resorted to open football, Jamestown playing the punting game} with success. Peake was easily the star perform- fe at right half sharing honors with him. M. Benshoff, at right end for New Rockford, was a demon on the offense, making many long gains on end runs. BETTER FARMING WORK Series of Meetings | in Divide Coun. | 1 ty Next Week Crosby, N. 12. —J.

Organization work has been completed in every county, he reports, and the commit- tees today buckled into a drive which they expect to put North Dakota over the top with a big margin over its quota. LARGE POWER PLANT PLANNED FOR SCRANTON Johnson Fuel Co. to Operate Es- tablishment in Connection with Briquetting Scranton, N. D., Nov. 12.—The John- son Fuél Co. of Fairfax, 8. D., which {has invested heavily in a briquetting plant here for the consumption of lig- nite, plans the establishment of a large electric power plant at the mine to utilize waste in the briquetting pro- cess. Light and power will be sup- plied Scranton, Rhame, Bowman and probably to Marmarth. PROBABILITY OF UGH NEEDED YE AT ELGIN Physical -Connection Between Northern Pacific and Milwau- kee of Vast Importance Elgin, N. D., Nov. 12.—It begins to Igok as though a most important wye which will have the effect of, retain- ing within the commercial boundaries o? North Daketa a large territory in the southwestern section of the state is to be installed here by the North- ern Pacific and the Milwaukee lines. ''yne people of Elgin have agreed to furnish the required right-of-way, and the Milwaukee line has consented to pay its half of the cost of construc: tion. The plan under consideration h been put up to the Northern Pa- cific, and it is hoped that early action on the part of this company will re- sult in physical connections between the two lines being accomplished this fall. Because there are now no facilities for switching ffom the Northern Pa- to the Wilwaukee line and vice versa, much of the Milwaukee line ter- ritory for which Bismarck is a logical distributing center is served from Ab- erdeen and_ still others from Miles City. For any practical com- mercial purpose, this territory might almost as well lie in South Dakota or Montana. These sections are loyal to North Dakota and to Bismarck and prefer to do their jobbing with the capital city, which is their logical jobbing center, but the necessity for an expensive transfer from Northern Pacific to Milwaukee line cars has made it necessary for much of the Milwaukee line business in Sioux, Grant, and Hettinger counties to go to Aberdeen. Of especially vital importance at this moment is an opportunity to ship hay without transferring from reservation points on the Milwaukee line to Northern Pacific territory west of the river. With a wye at Elgin, this hay can be handled economically to all points on the Mott and Killdeer branches and the Mainline from Man- dan to Beach, which is not possibie now.

DO-OPERATIONS [NECESSARY T (Continued from Fage One) nities” or territorial changes. — The section says: “It is an imperative duty from which there is no escape that wage- earners as well as all other citizens} of this republic support our govern- ment in its righteous effort to defend principles or humanity and to estab-| lish democracy in international rela- | tions. Because we desire permanent peace it is our duty to fight and sacrifice until these purposes can be achieved. “When nations can send representa- tives to negotiate peace terms on ac-| cord with this concept, we maintain| that the basic provisions of peace treaty should’ be formulated regard to the rights and welfare of stituting the nations rather than the governments of the nations. The government should be only an in- dominating and actuating their lives. This terrific war must wfpe out all vestiges of the old. concept that the nation belongs to the ruler or govern- ment. “We hold that the same principles should apply to relations between na- tions and that secret diplomacy should be replaced by diplomatic representa- tives responsible to the people of their own people and received by either the Parliament of the country to which they are accredited or by a represen- tative of the people, responsible to them. Never Represented “Working people have never been properly represented in diplomatic affairs. The future must structed upon broader lines than the past. We insist, therefore, that the government of the United States pro- tives of wage-earners among plenipatentiaries sent to the Peace Congress, and urge upon the labor movements of other countries to take like action. “We urge the adoption of the fol- lowing declarations as the basis up- on which peace must be negotiated: “1, The combination of the free peoples of the world in a common covenant for genuine and practical cooperation to secure justice and therefore peace in relations between nations. ee Government’ derive their just power from the consent of the gov- erned. “3.

Lines end lines of sodden canvas housed 27,000 men, gathered ‘from 27 different states. The ground was dotted with Pools and quagmires. Under the wet canvas it was damp and cold, with a penetrating chill. Lit by flickering candles, the tents were far from cheer- ful shelter for a man’s last night in his native lard.

Multiply that ‘by thinking of all the other places where Uncle Sam has men with the flag—in navy yards, on the high seas, in arse na's and officers’ training camps and “Over. There” in France. In all these places men are writing home. Those unassuming Iittle sheets of notepaper gladden milllons of hearts a day. They transfer mora love from one Nusic, Games, Good Reading and Cor Buil respondence Facilities in Y. M. C. A. dirig. In each of these a soldier was strum- ming on a piano; others were reading; books and magazines; hundreds. were} writing letters home. Behind the | raised counter at one end three or four, young men were busy passing out notepaper and envelopes, selling | stamps and weighing parcels, which the men were sending home. One of the soldiers said to me as I stood in the tent used chiefly by men from Iowa: “We came all the way here from Des Moines, and we were mighty lonely. Then we found tnis Y. M. C. A. on the job, and it’s been a home} and more than a home to us. It gave! us what we wanted when we needed it most. We'll never forget it. The boys’ best friend is the Y. M. C. A.” Fine, Clean-Cut, Upstanding Fellows. How close those benches were pack- ed with men, bending “over the long! tables absorbed in their writing! What an appeal to the sympathies} those great groups of soldiers make! Fine, clean-cut, upstanding fellows, some of them mere boys, one thinks immediate'y of the sacrifice they have made for the rest of us and how pre- cious they are to some one back home. Somewhere, in far off farm or village or city street, there are parents or brothers or wives who would give all they possess for one glimpse of those sunburned faces as you and I see them on their last night before going across. And it was with a throb of the heart that I watched them, bent over their letter paper, in one after another of those seven big tents. These were the tents of the Y. M. C. A. On that last night in America the associaticn was serving the soldiers in the best of all wa: giving them { an opportunity to write home. On previous nights theyghad enjoyed box- ing bouts, movies, concerts, dramatics and a score of healthy entertainments as well as religious meetings. But on this last night home ties were strong- est. And perhaps that fs the keynote of the splendid work the Y. M. C. A. is doing among our men in uniform— keeping them in touch with home. Magic Words, “With the Colcrs.” In these times there are some let- ters that mean more to us than any we have ever read before. They are | written on sheets of paper stamped j-with the Stars and Stripes and the red triangle af the Y. M. C. A.” and they bear the magic words, “With the Cotors.”. There are many more than 8 million such letters in the mails now le you read tils. Perhaps one at |and fast. | will nave a friend that will serve him ; glad to know that this friend wil place part of the world to another than sta. tistics can exprecs. Statistics are pretty poor anyway when it comes to reckoning in terms of love and human} tenderness. Let’s put {it this way: That the Y. M. C. A, is the biggest ex- press company the world has ever} seen, and the parcels it 1s handling are the loves and devotions of human beings. World’s Best Loved Trademark. This war das made us think hard Your boy or your neigh- bor's boy or some boy you know and love has been called to do his share | in the big jcb of policing the worid for democracy and human liverty. Is it any comfort to you to know that wher- ever his duty may call him your boy in body, mind and soul? Are you books and magazines at his disposal, organize classes to teach him what- ever he wants to learn; give him a Bocket testament and invite him to join religious meetings of the faith that he was brought up in? ,Did you realize that the association provides athletic equipment for his favorite games, teaches him games if he knowe none and holds concerts, lectures, movies, Bible classes, dramatic enter. tainments and every kind of whole: some amusement to keep him interest: ed? Are you glad to know that this friend will go with him overseas, help to shield him from a score of difficult and dangerous temptations and follow him right up to the front line trench and beyond it? The last contact the soldier has with this life he loves so well is a cup of tea given him by the Y. M. C. A. free just before he goes “over the tcp” toa hand to hand strug: gle with the enemy. And as he comes tottering back from No Man’s Land, wounded, but strong enough and Piucky enough to keep on his feet, even before his wounds are dressed the Y. M C. A. is waiting for nim with tea and sweet chocolate, the great com- forts of the man in the trenches. Do you wonder that the Red Triangle is called “the best loved trademark in the werld?” One soldier in France has called it “the last evidence that any- body cares.” If every thinking cittzen could see with his or her own eyes something of the actual work being done for our men by the association there would be no question of the Y. M. C. A. having to appeal to the public for money Rather than let this essential work falter for an instant rich men would sell their motorears. poor men would : toreso cov eted possessions or even ne ies, The work must g0 on, be- there is no one thing that con: tributes so much to the spirit and ef ficiency of the troops. The Y. M. C. is working nij and day| to help te government win this war. And every penny that is given to aid the | work {s a direct assistance to the health, happiness and strength of your boy and mine. Snapshots of Kaleidoscopic Work. In all the big cities in France where our men pass through in large num. bers, the Y. M. C. A. is operating hostels, where they can get beds and meals at a minimum cost. In London the American Y. M. C. A. nas erected a large building for our soldiers and @ clubhouse for American officers. There are Y. M. C. A. dugouts right behind the front line trenches, where the soldiers can get hot drinks, crack+ ers and other comforts at all hours. Over 2,000 men who had been reject: ed on account of physical disability have been able to get into the British army by reason of the physical work of the British Y. M. C. A. A fleet of motor cars leaves the bla ' ¥. M.G. A. headquarters in London at midnight every night to pick up sol. diers who are wandering about the sireets without eny wholesome lodging in which to spend the night. These | cars are operated by Englishwomen of position and refinement, who report that they never meet any discourtesy at the hands of the-soldiers. ‘The im- portanco of this service can be esti- mated by the fact that at least 50,000 soldiers are on leave in London every week, Over half of these sleep in ¥. M. C. A. beds every night. Entertainment on Vast Scale. The Y. M. C. A. has erected a big auditorium, seating 3,000; in each of the big draft camps, and huge chautau- qua tents, seating 2,500 in the otner encampments. The association is run. ning a 22 week entertainment circuit among the camps and is paying 1¢ compenics of enecky pas who are traveling to 30 camps performiag bo fore the men. In each of the draft camps the Y. M. C. A. has ten secretaries engaged in educational work. The association is secing to it that every man whe cannot speak English is iaught to do so. In many of tne camps the asso elation has a singing director, who is teaching the men to sing the popular and martial airs that do so much te keep up their spirits. Of 64 Y. M. C. A. men at Camp Dix only three are being paid full sal aries. In all the camps the majority of the Y. M. C. A. men‘have left lucra- tive positions te do this work simply because its appeal is irresistible to any red blooded man. Harry Lauder, the famous Scotch singer and come dian, now on his farewell concert tour in the United States, is giving all his spare time to the service of the asso | elation and fs singing to the soldiers at all the camps he can reach. In one of the draft camps the Y. M. C. A. is supervising athletics on 12¢ playing fields, providing full athletic equipment. The winners of the inter. regimental games will play the cham pions of the other @amps. One of the greatest services rendef ed by the association fs the making A Red Triangle Dugout in the Trenches. out of money orders by which, the mer can send their pay home to their fam ilies. In some ofthe big camps the Y. M. C. A. is providing banking facil ities for the men as well. Do Your Bit With a Tenner. This month (November) the Y. M C. A. must raise $25,000,000 to carry on its work among our soldiers an¢ their allies until next July. Of this $35,000,000 about $24,000,000 will be spent on the work with our own troops or about $10 for every man in Uncle Sam's uniform. If everybody who has received letters from soldiers and sail ors were to contribute $10 the task would be easy. Are your boy’s health and happizess and clean soul worth $10 to you? Your town mayor, your pastor, your school superintendent will know who is the treasurer of the campaign com- mittee in your county or town. Other. wise send a check or money order to Cleveland H.
