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,

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.

health education program to find
those Infected wlth tuberculosls--
treat the patient--prevent the
spread of the dlsease--see that the
ex-patient has such service as is
needed to prevent relapse and to
strengthen the school health pro-

chase of Christmas Seals last De-
cember infected persons and ex-
patients in areas having no county
nurse and few doctors are now
being aided by .Inter-County TB
Field Nursing Service launched last

You as citizens of your corn-
munity have shown your willing-
hess to support the tuberculosis
program. We further ask you to
help see that it fulfills its purpose--
to rid this county of tuberculosis.

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.

Second Concert
Of Season to be
Friday, Jan. 14
Helen Howe. popular and disting-
uished monologuist, will be pre-
sented on Friday, January 14, as
the artist for the second concert
of this year's series by the South-
eastern Montana Community Con-
cert association. 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.

w
The Pleasant Valley Homemakers
club met Wednesday, January 5th
at the home of Mrs. Albert Still.
Dinner. was served at noon to
eleven members and their families.

dent and vice president, Mrs. Still

ryn Smith and Mrs. Hugh Ross.

ing, the hostess served pie and

Hardy Commissioned
Lieutenant in Army
Donald J. 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.

g~nlzed a family bureau, a private
agency through which she realized
the need for closer cooperation be,
tween social workers, home econo,
mists and public health nurses.
The Beach Open Forum direct-
ing committee wishes to emphasize
that their meetings are open to
anyone who is at all interested in
community advancement through
public discussion and adult edu(m,
tion. For Miss Anderson's meet-
ing it is urged that all farm leaders
and club leaders in the county

Miss Anderson will also speak in
Bismarck, Jamestown and Fargo,
while in North Dakota,
