SIDE PROPERTY OWNERS Request Filed With City Com- missioners Last Night for More Improvements The east side, fearing the west side’s recent ascendency in the mat- ter of paved streets, petitioned the city commissioners last night at their regular weekly meeting to form a pav- ing district for that section, The mat- ter was referred to the city engineer, T. R. Atkinson. The petition requested that the fol- lowing streets be paved: Wighth street from Avenue B to D. Ninth street from Avenue B to D. Tenth street from Broadway to Ave nue D. Eleventh street from Broadway to Avenue D. ‘Twelfth street from Broadway to Avenue A. Thirteenth street Avenue D. Broadway from 9th to 12th street. Thayer from 9th to 12th street.

In the opinion of the commissioners, the area included in the petition from Rosser to _should be reduced somewhat, and, as there was not sufficient time to com- plete the preliminaries and actual work before winter, the matter was deferred until next Monday, when En- gineer Atkinson will prepare a new betition. The ordinance creating paving dis- trict No. 3 was passed on its second reading. New Sewer. Commissioner Thompson’s resolu- tion asking forbids on a sanitary sewer on Raymond street from Rosser to Avenue A costing approximately $440 was adopted. , G. Grambs bid for a sanitary sew- er.on Third street was awarded. : Ernest G. Wanner, chairman of the flagpole fund committee wrote a let- ter to the commissioners asking the city to take over the Northern Pacific park for a stated number of years so that the flagpole could be erected to “commemorate the successful termina- tion of the war and as a tribute to the valor of our boys in the conflict.” The commissioners deferred action on the request. Ferry Petition. Frayne Baker, representing the Benton Packet Co., operators of a ferry from Bismarck to ‘Morton coun- ty presented a petition signed by 55 automobilists who had occasion to use the ferry recently because the other ferry was “out ca the rocks at Bis- marck and had made no trips since 9 o'clock Friday night” and requested Baker’s company to operate the Ben- ton ferry from Morton county to Bis- marck. The petition was filed. Mr. Baker stated that the ferry was not operating from the Morton county side to Bismarck because of a prev- fous court action of the other ferry company which prevented the Deapo- lis from carrying passengers from the Morton county side to Bismarck.

Myhre, pioneer citizen and business man of this city, passed away Sunday morning from bladder trouble from which he has suffered for years. Mr. Myhre was manager of the Farm store in this city and up to last Wed- nesday was actively engaged in look- ing after the business, but this dread- ed di: e was creeping along steadily bul surely and- the deceased had to take to his bed and passed away at 6:30 Sunday morning. K. Myhre was one of the early pioneers of Barnes — county coming here in- the ‘early eighties... He has been honored by the public by holding the office of county commissioner and later was postmaster of Valley. City, discharging his duties. in both posi- tons faithfully aud.well. E. K. Myhre was a good man and a good ‘citizen, and his passing away will be deeply regretted by many friends. He leaves to mourn his demise four children and his widow. The deceased had always taken an active part in the development of the city .and county.: He was appointed postmaster by. the late William Mc- {She should, Striking innovations in male attire are posisble when the further boost in the prices of men’s clothing comes this fall.

Motherhood is likely to be harder on the athletic type of woman. E knowledge— is 2 important in the wife than the hasvand; she is the earliest teacher of her children and must answer their questions; also she has less contact with the outside world and must de- pend more upon books. Ancestry I rate two points higher in the wife than the husband. The woman usually stays with ‘her family until she marries; a man often breaks away at an early age. So a woman is affected not only by what she inherits from parents but by long and close contact with them.

She can inspire her chil- dren also and add to their happiness * and their value to society. Amiability is perhaps the quality most appreciated by men in women. A cheerful. good tempered - woma smooths life’s difficulties and makes the home run easily., So I have given it 10 points in the table. A woman's love with all it means to loyalty, romance, unselfishness and tenderness is most important. In picking a wife, no matter what other qualities she has be sure she is in love with you. Charm—that indefinable something that makes a man proud of his wife— I consider much more important than beauty, which I have placed last in the list. In nine cases out of ten the husband of a plain wife is more de- voted to her than the husband of a_ beautiful ° wife. Domestic efficiency is certainly an important item in the modern mar- riage. A woman who can spend wise- ly and well, who can manage the house and produce efficient, clean meals, is a necessity. I have rated it at 5 points. Dependability, Courtesy and a Sense of Humor are‘all important too among the lesser qualities. A man who knows that when his wife says. “T will be there at a quarter to four,” means what she says and will show up on time, is lucky. Courtesy may seem a small thing but it is one that wives {7nd husbands) often lack. to- ward each other. A sense of humor is as necessary to wife as husband in helping them to laugh their way through small difficulties and keep away from the domestic quarrel. Butcher cattle heifers, $7.50. to $15.
