WHAT IT MEANS TO RICHLAND COUNTY

(Continued from pane I)

fort. It won't lake long before peo­ple throughout the whole domain will be poinins at this grand old county, as the tinest. example of country, village and city life, where the people know how to en­joy the benefits of life that sur­rounds each and every individual. There is nothing liner in the world than to be able to say: "Why I live in Richland County, the County that leads them all." And 1hey will ask of you "How were you able to do it?" Then go ahead and tell fliem.

Don't plant all of that 320 acrt:i. to wheat. Diversify your farming. Corn is getting to be as large if not a better cereal to grow right here in Hchland than wheat. It is nearly always a sure crop, and grows as well here with just as large a yield, as anywhere. Give it tliH proper cultivation, and you will always have a nice corn field to show the pa»serbys and it will also iiicr»-asf tin* valuation of your land. Raise cows for there i.-n't a greater revenue on the farm than a nice herd of dairy animals. Try a good sized field of alfalfa, for it is one of the best stock foods that is known and it is a sure crop in this county. Di­versify and watch old Richland's valuation creep towards the ten­fold mark.

Cooperate with your merchants in your home town. They need your help and you need theirs. Take that, cash for your next ord­er that you were going to send to a mail order house and walk right u pto your merchant and say: "Mr. Merchant. I have twenty-five dollars here and I want that much worth of your merchandise; can you give me mail order house pri­ces?" Just see if lied on't for lie can lay them right at your feet just as cheap as any mail ordei house i.n the world can do. Ju.si give him a chance.

Then when the five years are passed, you'll never h,esitate „ minute to believe the figures that will be given out for the census of Richland county. For its vil­lages, and cities will be extending their suburbs rapidly. Boost, boost, Boost—never stop boost-ng old Richland, and the benefits in the events of the next five years will be credited to the citizens of Richland as a whole, instead of a few. Boost and boost again' and everybody outsde the county will watch with open-wide mouth and eves at our fast growth and rapid improvement.

HIQH SCHOOL CLASS PLAY (Continued from page 1)

Mrs. Stead Anna Bennett Miss Ashford Myrtle Bradseth Eva Webster Nora Medved

The synopsis of the story told by the pupils, who acted out the different characters follows:

Douglas Cattermole is a young fellow who has to sow his wild oats before his uncle will give liim his share of fortune. The uncle is in India and has never seen his nephew. Douglas tries to sow his wild oats by not paying his landlady and Gibson, the tailor. He is not satisfied with this kind of excitement. His friend, Harry suggests that he would go in place of Spaulding as Private Secretary to Mrs. Marsland.

Spaulding is a very simple character and is easily persuaded to remain in Douglas' room free of charge. In the meantime, Cattermole comes to see his nep­hew. mistaking Spaulding for him is of course dissappointed. Doug­las goes to Mr. Marsland's home and is taken for the Private Secretary, he becomes acquainted with Mr. Mainland's daughter, Edith and her friend, Eva.

In the meantime Spaulding re­ceives a telegram to come to Mr. Marsland. The coming of Mr. Cattermole, senior to visit his friend. Mr. Marsland, the arrival of Gibson, the tailor to collect a bill from Douglas and the at­tempts of Miss Ashford, the spirit uralisls to relieve the situation, added great mirth to the plot.

The Women Voters' Campaign Alliance composed of women from the twelve suffrage states has been orgaized with Miss Anne Martin as chairman of its exec­utive committee and Miss Jane Adams, as honorary chairman, to assist states which are carrying on suffrage campaigns.

It is proposed to send the his­toric Liberty Bell from Independ­ence Hall in Philadelphia to the Panama Pacific Exposition. Penn­sylvania can well spare it this year because the Suffrage Liber­ty Bell which is a replica of it will be ready to start on its jour­ney through the Keystone State on the first of May. Like the orig­inal Liberty Bell, the Suffrage Bell will be inscribed: "Proclaim Lib­erty Throughout All the Land Un­to all the Inhabitants Thereof."

"Establish Justice and Secure the Blessings of Liberty." But it will be silent until November when it is expected to ring out the news that Pennsylvania wo­men are politically free.

SUFFRAGE NOTES The votes for Women League

held an enthusiastic meeting at the home of Mrs. P. C. Olson on Tuesday evening, May lltli, and elected the following officers:

President, Mrs. D. R. Jones. Vice-Pres., Mrs. W. W. Jamie-

son Sec-Treas., Mrs. H. G. Rasmus-

sen. Rec. Sec., Mrs. P. C. Olson. The first Monday in every

month was decided upon for reg­ular meeting. A very pleasing program had been prepared con­sisting of a reading by Mrs. J. W. Worner which was greatly ap­preciated, a violin solo by little Isabelle Olson, who, though very-young, gives promise of being a talented musician, and an appro­priate vocal solo: "Equality" by Lillian Morden. Delicious re­freshments were served- at the close of the program. The Lea­gue is a live organization and is outlining a plan for effective work.

Is suffrage a state or a national issue? If women alone had the ballot rfould men consider states' rights a sufficient reason for their own continued disfranchisement? Can we compass a great principle —a common good—into narrow limits, hedge it in by geographi cal boundaries that are absolute ly artificial? Business and com­merce recognize no such demar­cations/Suffrage like all great po­litical issues must be dealt with on national lines.

in Wahpeton and Breckenridge, when the different pastors spoke on the subject of Civic Righteous­ness, from a moral and physical point of view. The attendance in the morning was good consider­ing the doubtful weather, and the service profitable i.n regard to a bigger and better Wahpeton.

The Laymen's service in the evening drew a very large congregation, and was one of the best meetings of the kind that the church has held. The speakers oi the evening were F. R. Barnes, and President Smith of the State School of Science, both of these gentlemen were at their best in their respective subjects. Mr. Barnes, in a most pleasing and interesting manner gave the his­tory of the growth and "progress of the -First Congregational Church of Wahpeton, giving facts and incidents of its early strug­gles, and successes, also mention­ing the names of many of the ear­ly members, of their faithful and earnest labor, and the sacrifices that were made in those early days of the church. The address was very much enjoyed by all present.

President Smith took for his subject: "Is there a God." This is of course one of the most mo­mentous questions that can oc­cupy the inind of man, and a sub­ject that needs very careful thought and consideration, all of which was given by the speaker, and the earnest, thoughtful man ner of the congregation, showed that they were deeply interested in -the subject and the able man­ner in which it was presented. Nobody who heard that address, but what would be strongly im­pressed with the fact that there is a God.

The other gentlemen'who took part in the service, werejProf. E. Jones, who offered prayet; F. A. Burton, who read the Scripture lesson from a part of the l'd4 Psalm; Messrs; Prather and Clip-fell sang a duet, Gently Lord O gently lead us, which was splen­didly rendered. Dan. Rw Jones- act­ed as chairman. >

The Young Peoples' choir sat in the rear of the chufoh and gave a special number, which also con-'—Adv.

tributed much to the congrega­tional singing.

Next Sunday morning at 10:30, there will be a Union Memorial service in the Methodist Episco­pal church. Two other churches will unite, namely, the Protestant Episcopal, and the Congregation­al.

The program prepared by the Gener- ' al Secretary was used, and the parts were all taken by the mem­bers of the League. The need for a definite religious experience was kept in the foreground, and the personal experienced of several noted workers were given in their own words. At the close an offer­ing was taken to apply on the League's missionary pledge.
