" S ong Competition In Post-war Period There will be strong competition between cities and towns after the war to get trade. Towns will be trying hard to excel their neighbors, to draw in all possible business ~rom ~)utside, and to hold on to all "the home trade. It will be a fast race, and the best towns will win. There will also be a second form of competition, as to which cities and towns can do the most to,find work for their demobilized service men, and for their own people who lose their jobs by stoppage of war work. Those who are most success- ful in enlarging their business so that they can find work for all their own people, will be mighty popular places. People will ap- preciate this great service, ~V~ Goalis Set For 1944 Red Cross War Fund Drive $200,000,000 is the goal set for the 1944 War Fund of the American Red Cross to finance its global ser- vice for victory program, according to Guy Cox, Golden Valley county publicity chairman of the Red Cross chapter. The greater part of this sum, $140,000,000, will be required by the national organization to finance Red Cross national and interna- tional services to America's fighting forces, Mr. Cox said. The remain- !ng $60,000,000 will go to the 3fl56 local chapters for community work, most of which is related to service- men and their families., Mr. Cox stated that the local goal will be announced soon. Leon Fraser, .president of the First National Bank of the City of New York, is nations/ chairman of d=e Red Cross 1944 War Fund cam- paign. Walter S. Oifford, president of the American Telephone and Telegraph company and chairman of last year's War Fund campaign, will head a special committee to solicit corporate gifts. Quoting Mr. Davis Cox said: "While the 1944 objective is largest campaign goal in Red Cross ~, It repref~ats the minimum amount required to meet constantly increasing demands from our arn~ and navy for Red Cross services. "In Golden Valley county we a~e confident that our portion of this fund will be raised in the same spirit of generousness which has always characterized thl- com- munity," the local v/Krman stated.

Boy Scouts Pleased With Results But Need More Paper Although good cooperation was given to the Boy Scouts by Beach citizens last Saturday in the paper drive, they are still far short of a sufficient amount of paper to make up a carload. The Scouts again request all those who have newspapers and magazines to have them tied up In bundles and placed on their porch for removal next Saturday. Many persons might have overlooked the fact that the government is very concerned over the paper shortage, ~md is appealing through the ~a~pem amt m~41azines that it ~.~ patriotic duty, to save .all of ~e~r ~ material for me war effort. Comddering the large number of malles order house catalogs, maza- and newspapers that have gone through the postoffice in the past two years, it is obvious that there are tons of these now obsolete materials in homes of this com- munlty. It should not be impos- sible to get at least one full car- load of this paper and possibly another in the future. It is going to take the cooperation of every townsman and farmer to get this paper available so that the govern- ment will have the benefit of it. The time is short, and we can not let the paper drive lag in any sense of the word; the Scouts again appeal to your sense of patriotism to round up this paper so that it can be used for Its vital need. Remember, next Sat- urday the Scouts will again be around through the town, and plea~ have this paper available for them at that time. The rural people, including country school teachers, are asked to notify W. S. Stutsman, Scoutmaster, if they have a quantity of paper but a transportation problem. Arrange- merits to transport this paper might be made. %r With ~he exception of a light flurry of snow and the temperature a little "nippy" our western North Dakota weather continues bright and invigorating.

The concert will be held in the Dawson County High School auditorium in Glen- dive. Helen Howe was born in Boston into a literary family. This back- ground perhaps accounts for the fact that she writes all her own sketches and recently published her first novel, the best-seller '~rhe Whole Heart". One of the foremost solo-performers on the American stage, Miss Howe has toured from California to London and has done special shows in the White House and at the Duke and Duchess of Kent's in London. Helen Howe first Studied acting in Paris at the salon of C~n~ges Vitray, an outstanding member of the Theatre du Vieux Colombler. Afterward she studied in America at the Theatre Guild School of Acting. FulR1]ing an assignment to work out "chai~cter studies", Miss Howe wrote six. So fresh and original were they, and so effect- ively did she interpret them, that her director was convinced that here was a talent of ~ unique kind that should be develol~ed along itS own special line. And so Mi~ Howe to work out her cm~er as a mmaologuist, portraying those ~cha~.. cters which she herself would create. Miss Howe tries to ~ her program annually to keep all the ~sketehes timely. She writes them herself, and each sketch is tried out half a dozen times before an audience before it is definitely add- ea~ to repertoire. Her debut in New York was a great success, immediately followed by sin~liar appearances in Boston and elsewhere. Such was the be- ginning and the years have sub- stantiated early promise. Helen Howe is one of the "First Ladies" of the one-wonmn theatre.

Hardy of Beach has been conlmissioned a second lieu- tenant in the Army of the United States after successfully completing a course of training at the Adju- tant General's school at Fort Washington, Maryland. Lieutenant Hardy was one of a selected group of enlisted men drawn from vir- tually all arms and branches of the service and designated to at- tend the Officer Candidate school. 75 ~)ounds less than a minloll pounds of hogs, of whlch 528,960 pounds were purchased at Beach, is a record run for Jack Ballard, who operates buying yards at Glen- dive, Baker and Wibaux in addition to his Beach livestock rrmrket, For three days the yards at Beach were one continual jam mad when the last of 16 carloads were loaded late Saturday evening a ' total of 2204 hogs had been tallied, representling a return to th~s trade territory of approximately $64,000,00. Ballard shipped a total of 28 cars last week. The large number of hogs that have been shipped from the Beach livestock markets during the past year indicates that the farmers of the Golden Valley are not alto- gether dependent upon grain farm- ing. At times, like thLs with ter- minal market conditions as they are, Beach is fortunate in having a local market such as has been maintained by Mr. Ballard. Through many years of bUying, Ballard has been able to find suit- able marketing facilities both on the west coast and at the middle east marketing centers. In addition to the above ho~ shipments, several cats of catt~ were shipped by Morris Goldflne, and a car or more by Knute Farst, veer for the Farm~ Cooperative. v Open Forum to Present Noted , Speaker Jan. 19 In cooperation with the North Dakota Extension department and the North Dakota State Leadership Training institute, the Beach Open Forum is pleased to announce that Miss Eline Anderson, Director of Health Study for the Farnl Foundation of the Nebraska Btat~ Agricultural college at Lincoln, will address the next meeting of the Forum at 8:00 o'clock Wednesday evening, January I~2,, in the court rooms in the Courthouse. Miss Anderson came to the United States from C~ In 1~ to study in the New York school of social work. Later she directed the eugenics survey of the Univer- sity of Vermont. "We Amer/cans", her book on adjustments of French Canadians, and other forel~ ,~oups to New England life, won the John Anisfleld awards as the best book on race relations in 193%1938.
