The Kiwanis club gave its lunch- ton, today, over to observance of Lincoln's birthday. Alfred Zuger was . the speaker of the day and Pat Byrne Gave the story of the Gettysburg battle and address, speaking that im- mortal piece of literature as he fin- ished the story leading up to its de- livery. The luncheon was attended by a girls' glee sextet from the high school. They were present under the direc- tion of Mrs. Hermann Scheffer, teacher of music at the school, and included Ethel Sandin, Dency Dickin- son and Dorotha Walker, first so- Pranos; Isabel Humphreys, Evelyn Herman, second sopranos; Lucille | Coghlin and Inez Landers, altos; Margaret Kennedy, accompanist. Two | selections were sung, one from the “Tales of Hoffman” and “America | the Beautiful.” Arthur J. Rulon, Jamestown, repre- Sentative in the North Dakota house, Was the only guest of the day. | Mr. Zuger began his talk on Lincoln | with that birth amid poverty and | humble conditions, 120 years ago, in | Kentucky, and traced the boy through the migrations of the family to In- | diana and the death of his mother, then analyzed ‘Lincoln in character | and mental, development and as al lawyer. No Jurist of the time had a more profound understanding of the principles of justice and their appli- cation, he said. Lincoin’s grasp of inicyuatiqnal law #lso was keen, said Mr. Zuger, as shown in his handling of the contra- band question and the Trent affair; and the Emancipation proclamation and reconstruction attested tq his in- Sight into constitutional law. He held the veceded state had never been law- fully out of the union. He had. said Mr. Zuger absorbed the great exposi- tion on the indissolubility of the Union from Webster and he sought to treat the post-war situation on that basis. Thus Lincoln won first rank as a Statesman. More than that, he seemed to be divinely inspired as the prophets of old, and his second inaugural and Gettysburg address reveal that divine touch, the speaker thought. W. E. Cole was chairman of the day. University Carney Song Contest Nears | } Grand Forks,-N.

For those who prefer the old- fashioned are the reproductions of other days shown above. . . . . * . New York, Feb, 12—(?}—Modern young people pretend to despise their sentimental forefathers, but the pro- fusion of valentincs on display this | year seer: to indicate that somebody is wrong. Valentine manufacturers bay the young people are kidding themselves. Valentines are as vital to a successful Jove. affair as.ever, they claim. To prove it they offer great columns of figures showing that young people send valentines and spend a great deal more for them than grandfather would ever have cared. February shop windows pay homage to the jolly saint whose feast day is the ‘14th. Candy makers pack their wares in heart-shaped boxes. Flor- ists tie up old-fashioned bouquets with quaint paper frills. Jewelers’ signs are subtly suggestive. Even book shops have valentine packages, Great stores on Fifth avenue have given over counters and shelves to valentines. The most modern may select from designs done by contem- Porary artists. The strong colors and odd designs of present-day art have and flowers. For the old-fashioned are repro- ductions of favorites of 50 years ago. Chubby boys and rosy girls smirk in pierced with gilded arrows. Pink little cupids run riot over huge cards be- spattered with saccharine verse. There are valentines for a swecet- heart, for a wife, and for a mother. Uncles and aunts, sisters and cousins have their special cards. And row after row is filled with “comics” pok- ing good-natured fun at the foibles of man.
