Frazier this morn- ing advised George M. Abbott, field tary for the universal military , training league, that he is not yet pre- pared to commit himself to universal military training. Secretary Abbott, who is here on one of his periodical field trips, also called upon Chief Justice Andrew A. Bruce, who stated his stand in the fol- lowing words: “If a nation has a right to exist it has a right to defend itself from at- tack from other nations. A republic can be defended su sfully only by its cilizens—by, all citizens, Uni- versal military’ training is ‘the only democratic method of preparing a re- public to defent itself. I also believe it will be of immense benefit physical- ly, mentally and morally to the young men of our country. urgency of the present situation of the nation will result in such legislation as will introduce the general plan and without undue delay.” ONLY THREE GARS ON HAND TO SUPPLY NEED FOR 293 ON THE G.

IN DEDICATING SOUTH | DAKOTA MODEL SCHOOL I hope that the} Fine Institution at Madison is to be Headed by ‘North Dakota Educator N. C. Macdonald, state superintend- | ent of public instruction, has return- ed from ‘Madison, S. D., where he was the principal speaker at the dedication of a new model school for the South Dakota state normal. Mr. Macdonald spoke on consolidation as the future of the rural school, tracing North Da- kota’s successful experience. The new model school is of a modern type em- bracing a number of progressive ideas and including models of rural and city schools under one roof and all on the same floor. It is of particular interest to North Dakotans from the fact that Miss Candis Nelson, for six years in the department of education at the Valley City normal, is to be in charge. South ‘Dakota is now preparing to take | up a series of rural school rallies sim- ilar to those recently conducted in North Dawota. MASTER WAR PICTURE AT AUDITORIUM TONIGHT Bismarckers were given an insight into the great offensive movement of General Haig in shattering the Hin- denburg line at the Auditorium last | night, when a five reel war picture featuring the great English tanks was shown.

The tanks were filmed at the battle of the Ancre by the British gov-| They were shown plowing their way over barbed wire fences and other obstructions. Nothing seems too | big to stand in their way.

FARMERS URGED T0 HOLD SEED GRAIN Shortage Feared by Commis- sioner of Agriculture—Coun- ties May Issue Bonds With the co-operation of.the pure. seed commission, the North Dakota State Bankers’ association and Com- missioner of Agriculture and Labor Hagan, counties which find themselves in need of seed-grain will be encour- aged to issue seed bonds or warrants through their county commissions, where this courcs is found necessary. “The seed commission stands ready in fiinding where it can be bought,” said Commissioner John N. Hagan to- day. “The commission finds after mak- ; ing a careful survey that a shortage of | barley, oats, flax and corn seed exists, and it recommends that farmers hav- ing any of these grains retain them for seed purposes, and that farmers having supplies in excess of their own needs notify the commissioner of ag- rigulture or the agricultural college. “The farmer probably will realize a somewhat higher price for this seed- grain than he would get in the open amrket, and the buyer will be saved transportation charges two ways and probably a commission or two. It is certain there will not be sufficient seed grain in the state in any event. We will be compelled to,go out of the state for much of it, but every bushel that can be bought inside the state will mean a saving in money and a greater certainty of crop.” Seer “DONT LOOK IFT HORSE IN MOUTH ” HAS COURTS 0. K. Supreme Bench Rules Fargo Not Liable for Injury Sustained in Enjoying Gratuity ’Tis a wise and sound axiom which forbids looking a gift horse in the mouth, says Justice James E. Robin- son, in writing an opinion for the su- preme court of North Dakota revers- ing Judge A. T. Cole of the Cass coun- ty district court, who awarded Dan Moulton damages against the city of Fargo for injuries which Moulton sus- tained when the Fargo dumping grounds burst into flames while he was unloading some debris there. The supreme court reverses the lower trib- unal and dismisses the action on the ground that the acceptance of the gra- tuitous service offered by the city of Fargo in supplying a public dumping ground deprived the acceptor of any. legal claim against the city. The supreme court also handed down an opinion this morning affirm- ing the Williams county district court's conviction of C. D. Wheeler, on a charge of bootlegging. Wheeler got BAKER AS NO KK MANY ASKING ADC Fuel Administrator Sees no Org- anized Opposition to Enforce- ment of Rulings Capt. I. P.

He is of the opinion that everyone recognizes the necessity for this order and is anxious to cooperate with the fuel adminis- tration in making it effective. ny FAY CAN'T BEHAVE; | PREFERS GRAFTON TO | | LAFOLLETTE'S STATE | _ Fay Fisher, a large, * comfortable, well-upholstered party of doubtful age, simply can’t be good. She admitted! as much to Judge Bleckreid this morn- ing and declared she would be per- fectly willing to go to Grafton. but that she couldn’t consent to be sent back to her native state and become a con- stituent of Bob Lafollette’s. For Fay is a Badger; she’s also a bear. She celebrated her deliverance from a fif- teen days’ disorderly term in the coun- ty jail last evening by accosting a most worthy gentleman on one of the city’s main streets with a suggestion which straightway landed her back in the toils. Today she drew a fine of $50 and costs, which will make her a guest of Sheriff French for some time, unless room for her should be found in the instittuion for the feeble-minded at Grafton. BILL HART IN BAD FOR FORGING CHECK “Bill” Hart, not he of the movies, but something of a bad man nevert! less, if all the charges against him are true, was removed from an outgoing train by Night Captain Huber ‘and Of- ficer Jensen last night and held in jail here to await the arrival of officers from Kintyre, where -Bill is wanted for the alleged forging. of a $52 check on the Kintyre state bank. Hart spent some time at Kintyre under the name of Ed Wolf. In that name he presented a check at the First State bank of Wishek. A tele- phone call proved Ed Wolf's baak ac- count at Wishek to de in a catisfactory state, and the check.was cashed.
