09 MmwO aid BISMARCK DISTRICT WOMEN LIBERTY PROVES HE! The Bismarck district conference of women Liberty Loan workers, which came to a close at. the city Mbrary auditorium . Wednesday afternoon, proved a decidedly helpful meeting, tilled with suggestions which will prove decidedly beneficial to the 19 county chairmen. and their assist- unts. Not among the least impressive fea-) tures of the conference was the read- ing of a message received by Miss/ ‘Minnie J. Nielson, state chairman of| the Women’s Liberty Loan committee, lows: oy 1 Washington, D.C. | | March 16, via Bismarck. | | | Miss Minnie J.

(Mrs. McAdoo, following her visit to this state a year ago, seems much nearer Ao Flickertail women than do other prominent eastern work ers in the women’s causes. ; Closing Session. | The closing session of the confer ence opened in the library auditorium at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. H..M. Rudd of Fargo gave one of the most interesting and inspiring talks of the meeting, ‘Her familiarity with the Russian language and cus- toms, and her ability to speak Russian- ‘German dialect, as well as German, Norwegian and a number of other tongues will make her a very valu- able assistant indeed in educating the mixed population of North Dakota— those who may not yet realize that the United States is their country, and that it is their duty to support the government. Her talk showed a most thorough and comprehensive knowl- edge of Russia, its peoples, language and customs, and her message gave added zest and inspiration to all who heard her. With her assistance there is no doubt that many of the commun- ities where the Russian-German popu- lation predominates will become “whole-Americans.” " Men or Shells? 2 H. P,. Goddard next gave a short talk, His earnestness and wholeheart- edness in the subject was noted in ev- ery action. His talk was wholly im- promptu, and impressed the hec.rers, As he stated, the problem now is;. “Which shall it be, men or shells in the German trenches?” The more money we sacrifice, the less men Go YARNS ON THE CHURCH TOURNEY | s ! | By Bill Varmint | Se art Rudolph Borke, the 180 pound Bap- tist forward, is a “fast” man, with the “s” out.

What War Is Doing for Women, It is mobilizing 1,000,000 heretofore useless women—giving them ideals of usefulness and hard work. It is giving them an interest, mak- ing them put aside all petty jealousies. It is giving them an occupation so absorbing, that all the petty things in life are wiped out—the sympathy of the work, sympathy in mutual the women very close together. It is welding them to- gether, It is giving women ideals of democracy—it is giving a different ‘value of human life.

One of the laughable incidents of the game Friday night was when Wal- den of the Presbyterians got to play- ing the ball too close, and same be came lodged between his knees, which took. several hard “punches to extract and thus enable Walden to be in ac: tion again. The referee overlooked the fact that it was a “held: bail.” They say no one has been able to get the “tip off” on Steiber. George Keenan says, “That’s no wonder. He stands on our back steps and sets the laundry in on the table without much exertion.” Another ‘funny stunt which “Valien pulled oft was when he grabbed Scrog- gins, who was playing on the same charming frocks, not too exact- the simplest white linen “middy blouse” to the special costume of white silk. : this “love game,” featured by Fashion Art have chosen the BY BETTY BROWN Summer sports offer few more delightful and graceful pastimes than tennis, and a few which af- ford better opportunities ‘for ing in form and ranging from The pretty feminine players in side, witnched the ball from him, and | richer materials for the ease and Lucille Lash SUCH TENNIS COSTOMES W.LL NET CHARMING RESULTS grace. with which they lend themsélves to the quick body movements. required in a strenu- ous game.

Beechman of Rhode Island says concerning the Salvation Army: “To anyone who says there is duplication in the work of The Salvation Army I can only say that they are not accurately informed. Toiling aggressively to find the men who need their help and ministering to that tremendous element which can alone be handled by The Salvation Army, this organization is making for itself at home and abroad a name among the soldiers, sailors, and prisoners that will live in lustre as long as the memory of man can run back to the present terrible days. The Salvation Army was among the very first to enter upon war work and is the very last to ask for a war fund (and comparatively a small one). The Salvation Amny has earned and richly deserves the hearty support of all America.” Salvation Army War Fund Drive, Fri. and Sat., March 22nd and 23rd. 2-DAYS ONLY -2 AUUQUQUEAULOQOQEUCUECUEROUEOQOANOUOUOUD ouvuduaqgeOaveCndUdeAUDUOOdOGUUOEDEGEGODNOUREILUGIOGUUEOUOUONUEQEOEQEOOGUQUONONOOROCOOED ‘
