Flapperism Out Of Style
Fargo, N.D. Dec 9 — "Flapperism" is going out of style among the girls in Fargo colleges and high schools according to Mrs. Myrtle Cole, dean of women at the Agricultural College and Miss Emma Bloomquist, girls advisor at Fargo high school. Although rouge, lip stick and eyebrow pencils still appear on the faces of Fargo girls there is less exaggeration in dress and arrangement of hair they agree.

May Stop The Water
Goodrich Citizen: The carelessness of some people who take water from Jakob Brost's well may cause that gentleman to cut everyone off from getting water there the balance of the winter. He is perfectly willing to let any and all have the water, but when some are careless and allow the windmill to run their barrels or pails over and thus form ice over the walk outside of the yard, thus endangering pedestrians' lives and limbs, he feels he must put a stop to it in some way.
