FRANK STOCKDALE WILL DE
LIVER HI8 ILLUSTRATED LEC
TURE HERE TOMORROW NIGHT
AT A. C. ARMORY—STUDENTS
INVITED.
Frank Stockdale of Chicago will de
liver his lecture on The Dawn of
Plenty in Fargo tomorrow evening at
the North Dakota Agricultural col
lege armory. Mr. Stockdale's intro
duction to the people of Fargo was
made last night at the Grand theatre
when he was the speaker of the even
ing on the Citizens' free lecture coursn.
His subject was Business Builders.
The Dawn of Plenty tomorrow night
is a story of facts and things, illus
trated with beautiful views and mo
tion pictures. It is a story which
should have been told years ago but
somehow it was neglected until now
It is a big vital story, put entertain
ingly.
The Dawn of Plenty has to do with
the struggle for Enough to eat, the
struggle for bread. It traces how
plenty was finally obtained, how less
work and more for it changed the
whole scheme of civilization, and how
all this helped to give up the great
industrial and commercial age in
which we live.
This story is as interesting as the
popular little book. The Story of
Bread, distributed by the Internation
al Harvester Co.'s service bureau in
Chicago. This book is widely read and
it furnished the idea for The Dawn of
Plenty. Mr. Stockdale's lecture, just
as it has furnished ideas for editori
als, essays and what not.
Mr. Stockdale's lecture will please
all classes, ruralites and urbanitea,
children and grownups. It is a dif
ferent sort of entertainment from the
lsual and, as people found out last
night, Mr. Stockdale is a little differ
ent too. That's why he is called the
mirthful orator with a message.
All the students of the cities of
Fargo and Moorhead are invited to be
3 special guests of the Fargo Com
mercial club at this lecture. The sec
retary is endeavoring to arrange with
the management of the Fargo-Moor
head Street Railway Co., to run spe
cial cars out to the A. C. tomorrow
evening between the hours of 7 and 8
o'clock and 10 and 11 o'clock.
Stockdale Last Night,
Mr. Stockdale was the speaker at
the Grand theatre last night as the
third number of the season on the
Citizens' free lecture course. He was
introduced by Dr. Max Batt.
He was greeted by a good-sized
audience and was given a hearty ova
tion. Mr. Stockdale's style of ora
tory is refreshing and he said some
excellent things.
The next speaker at the Grand will
be Miss Florence Kelly, the New York
social settlement worker. The fol
lowing Sunday evening, Lincoln 3tef
fens of New York will speak.
TO THE PUBLIC
Fargo, North Dakota, Oct. 17.—We
the undersigned, wish to advise our
customers that we have no one in our
employ going from house to house so

ACQUIT BELDEN
AT HIS HEARING
NECHE MAN ERRONEOUSLY RE
PORTED TO HAVE BEEN IN
TOXICATED IN WINNIPEG
WHEN HIS CAR COLLIDED WITH
ANOTHER LAST SUNDAY.
F. D. Belden of Neche, N. D., well
known in this city and throughout
the state, whose automobile collided
with another car on the streets of
Winnipeg last Sunday, was acquitted
at his hearing Saturday afternoon
without 1 cent of fine.
It was erroneously reported in the
press dispatches sent out from Win
nipeg that Mr. Belden was intoxicated
when driving the car. This, however,
was not the case as such a thing
was not mentioned in the charges,
The only thing brought against him
was that he ran into the car of Mr.
and Mrs. L. L. Lang of Roslyn road
Winnipeg, as they were driving home
from Thanksgiving serviecs.
The accident occurred and the court
held that one driver was as much to
blame as the other and dismissed the
case. Mr. Lang did not charge Mr.
Belden with being drunk, it was
stated this morning on good author
lty, by a Fargo citizen who went to
Mr. Belden's assistance at the hear
ing.
Mr. Belden is a man along in years,
an employe of the Pioneer Life In
surance Co., and of general good re
pute among all his friends.

E. D. STAIR OF THE DETROIT
FREE PRESS, WRITES THE'
FORUM CONCERNING MAN WHO
WAS ONE OF THE BUILDERS!
OF THIS COMMONWEALTH.
The following letter Is from E. D.
Stair, now a member of the staff of
The Detroit Free Press and formerly
publisher of The Cooperstown Cour- i
ier:
Editor Fargo Forum: I wonder if
his many friends and acquaintances
realize what a loss North Dakota has
sustained in the death of David Bart
lett at Newton, Mass., after an illness
of ten months?
From the first days of your consti
tutional convention, in which he be
came a leader, and during which he
labored for the good of the embryo
state with all that mildness of man
ner but determined honesty which en
deared him to every truth lover who
knew him well, his impress, his spirit
of advancement (later called progres
siveness) and his wisdom have been
written in the constitution and stat
utes of his state, which as a whole 1
fear never fully understood the beau
ty, the courage, the determination and
yet gentle sweetness of his charac
ter.
He made his way without hardness
or harshness, with consistent patience
and grand courage and thougl polit
ically active (perhaps ambitious) he
never could resort to questionable
methods or dubious alliances no mat
ter what such a course might mean
to his future. He was an absolutely
honest man and in the revealing pres
ence of death we realize fully that a
noble and gentle spirit honored us by
presence and his friendship. In
his
all the problems of citizenship and
civic duty his heart, his conscience
and his judgment worked together
and he never lacked the courage of
his convictions.
In all of the finer and dearer rela
tions of friendship and the home the
man who appeared so well in the out
side world appeared even more ad
mirable. To know him well was to
regard him more and more highly as
the intimacy increased, for familiari
ty with his inner traits increased ap
preciation of his true worth.
That a deep grief is felt for him In
this unstable, harsh world is the con
solation his life long intimates may
feel a gentle rest has fallen him aft
er a gentle life.
He gave as an example Robert
Lewis Stevenson who wrote many chil
dren stories and had to revise and re
write several times all his stories be
fore he was satisfied with them. He
emphasized the fact that one should
do things worth while and not spend
time foolishly as the man who spent
three years writing 46,000 words on a
postal card and all he had to show for
his efforts was a souvenir.

AT HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL
Dr. Fulton, of Illinois, Was the Speak
er There This Morning.
Dr. Fulton spoke to the students of
the high school this morning. Dr.
Fulton is from Illinois and will be a
few days in Fargo. While here he will
visit the schools of the city. He said:
"I notice that you have place for
Jokes in school. I always believe in
fun and at home I am a scout master
and I like to take my boys out for
hikes and let them enjoy themselves.
Dr. Fulton's subject was We Pay
Our Way as We Go. He said that
everybody worked for the things of
life and that the way to get things
was to begin early, that not anybody
not even geniuses, inventors, or authors
accomplished anything without work
