This is the first day of spring in North Dakota. Hicks’ aimanac says so, but the weather, with the excep- tion of a few mild days during the month, has given no indication that spring was near. Arrived at Midnight. Miss Spring arrived at midnight last night. Her arriva; was not her- alded by reports from Bismarck folk of seeing wild geese flying north, or the arrival of the first robin red- breast. Anyway, ‘Robbie's advent is looked for ,by children and grown- ups almost ‘any day. “Denny” Was Right. “Spring doesn’t arrive in North Da- kota until the Missouri river starts to break,” said Denny Hannafin last) night. “Then the geese will start their fly northward.” “Denny” was right. This morning Orris W. Roberts, meteorologist, re- ported that the Missouri had broken flowing between that point and Great Falls. River Breaks Up Early. The old stream broke guard a little earlier than in previous years, accord- ing to the official in charge of the | government observatory. April 1 is the average date. High water from the recent warm spell following on the heels of the continuous cold had something to do with the releasing of the ice which held the stream tight all_ winter. The official reading at noon today was 40 above. The word, “rain,” ap pears in the forecast today for the first time this season, which reads “probably rain or snow Thursday and in the west portion tonight; not much change in temperature.” KOLB AND DILL “The Three Pals” is the title that introduces the second Mutual Star production featuring the celebrated team of Kolb & Dill. It is a product of the American studios at Santa Barbara, The cast includes a number of players of note and sundry goats, burros and other properties of the western land- scape. This picture, a five-part-drama with strong comedy elements, presents C. William Kolb and Max Dill in a vehicle specially written for them by Ritchie & Whitcomb. No opportunity is overlook- ed to give them a chance for charac- teristic tummy business and effective acting. Avarice,.gold lust and intrigue tan- gle the plot up into perplexing messes of difficulty, but virtue triumphs neat- ly in the end. The villians are prop- erly slain, the heroes rewarded and the heroine nicely taken care of before the final curtain. Adventure is piled up thickly along the path of the plot. There is shooting aplenty, mad races for life, matrimony, swindling and swashbuck- ling. To enjoy “The Three Pals” you will have to see it at the Orpheum theater tonight at 7:20 and 9:00-o'clock.

Growth of the Order. “On behalf of the state officers and visiting Royal Neighbors, 1 want to thank the members of Cushing camp and the citizens of Bismarck for the very warm welcome they have given us,” stated Mrs. Cliff, state supervis- ing deputy, in her address. “We have looked forward for three years to this day and I trust it will be a day full of business and pleasure. “Three years ago when the third tri-ennial state camp met at Valley City, North Dakota had a_ Royal Neighbor membership of 4,137 with 148 camps, whereas we now have 5,318 members with 153 camps. The possibilities of this great society is almost beyond comprehension. We are so proud that we are recognized everywhere as the third largest fra- ternal beneficiary society in the world, not only among women, but men’s societies composed of both women and men. That is a distinc- tion of which we have a right to be proud.” Sees Enthusiasm Everywhere, Mrs. Anna Haaland of Valley City, in giving the response to the address of welcome by Mrs. E. J. Schultz, stated that “we are pleased to come to this, the capital city of our great state of North Dakota, to hold this important meeting, and may we catch an inspiration from these wide-awake, hurrying people of Bismarck, and carry away to our camps some of the enthusiasm that seems always to be in evidence among the people of this great city.
