WAYS OF WINNING THE WAR At a meeting ot the different organ- izations of the women held, at the Auditorium , on ‘Tuesday afternoon many ‘interesting:.and educational facts were brought out. : Mias, Alice Neilsen gave an instruc- tive:talk on the work,of the, differ- ent departments. Miag.\Katherine. .Jameson, home économic djrector of the Agricultural college, ‘and head of the women’s de- partment of the state council of de- fense was present. Together with .52 other “representa- tives of home, economics and food con- servation she recently met in Wash- ington and she had many interesting megsages to give to the ladies present. She emphasized the necessity for the entire state working in harmony —of all pulling together, ag she phrased it. “This is:tio time to tire of conser- vation talk,” she said. ‘;We must see to. it. that there is food for our boys —we are not going to’ starve here, and itvis the duty of every woman here to carry that’ message home. It is a pri- vilege for'us to bé asked to. conserve, even if it‘does take more time and nore money to use the substitute cer- eala. “We should make it a point'to use local. products,'grow gardens for home consumption—learn what the. substi- tgtes recommended by the govern- igent are—such as potato flour, barley figur, 0 oatmeal flour, etc., and then. use. them. "Experiment in the house with these substitutes—you will find. excel- lent things can, be’ made with them.” Miss: Mae™McDonald, head of, the home production and conservation de- partments, gave a short talk. “She emphasized particularly the ne- cessity for home gardens and keeping chickens. A home-gardening campaign will be vated very shortly in every county in the state and she especially urged the ccoperation of the women in the campaign, “She urged thé buy- ing of seed now, the utilizing of the high school boys and girls, as well as boy scouts in this garden campaign. Later she would urge the canning: of vegetables and the drying of veget- ables and the putting down of eggs in water glass.: But especially she. urged the appointment of a good live chairman in each community, and ask- ed the ladies present to see to it that that chairman was given loyal sup- port.

Then followed brief reports from various other committees as the work being done for the recreation of our soldiers, the spreading of the gospel and “Mother’s. Spreads for Soldier’s Bread,” in place of cigarettes Mrs. ‘Fred L, Conklin‘of Bismarck has been elected chairman of the women’s ‘committee of -the defense council’ for North Dakota. x9 { pe HIGH, SCHOOL. INTERESTED IN. WAR. COUNCIL: - The main interest in the local.

Addresses the High School. ‘Monday afternoon the periods were shortened to admit of the assembly of the student body, at three o'clock to listen to-Mr. Charles Edward Rus- cell. Mr. Russell was accorded a most enthusiastic greeting, ‘on ac- count of the students’ interost in his subject as well as because of the fact that. many. had heard him and ‘were familiar with his personality and meth- od: of appeal. After a very brief and unusually happy introguction which won the good will of the’ complete audience, Mr. Russell proceded to speak of the Russian situation and its; importance for America. He emphasized the mis- conceptions. abroad in .the United States as to Russia and thé Russiat people, regretting the unfortunate lack of sympathy with Russia on the part of: Americans, due to. too, narow ap outlook on:the part of, America. Rus- sia, -he said, would never haye col- lapsed, if the Russians +had. been sure ofthe friendship of America. ‘We have paid a tremendous price for be- ing:provincial,” said Mr. Russell, “you young people get you eyes open to, the fact that this is after ‘all a mighty. small world and—no part of the world. can be so successful and prosperous that:it can tolerate trou- big, in’ any other part of the world.” “We have been. altogether too tol- erant”,” continued Mr. -Russell, ‘“Am- ericans. must ndt:tolerate autocracy Our. mission in ‘this world. is not to hap Up one dollar on top of another— God never gave this, country free- com for,that; it is to be the champion Democracy.’ “The students of the B.

In an aparently rambling but really | purposeful beginning, Mr. Culbertson | cold vitally interesting anecdotes of the war, covering the work of the Eag- lish women, ‘incidents of the passage overseas in ships darkened and con- cealed ‘by camouflage, the story of an air-raid over London, and unfamiliar incidents of the heroic defense of Ver- dun by the French, the air-raid was dramatically _ told, from the first alarm “take cover,” to the description of the little boy wound- ed in the raid, whose mother said that this war was. not “an experience” bui murder.” The sacrifices of the French people were especially appealingly re- lated. ‘Mr. Culbertson concluded ‘ with a strong appeal to the students to exer- cise their influence in the community for conservation, “We've got to see it through,” he concluded. The students listened to this ad- dress as to Mr. Pussell’s with unusual sympathy, and their applause after the talk was as earnest.as it was enthus- iastic. ‘Rudolph Hagen, son of Mr. and Mrs M, G.
