STATE WOODMEN HAY GUT WOOD HERE IN ANNUAL GONVENTION Burleigh county camps of the Modern Woodmen of America met in conference in Bismarck yesterday to discuss plans for the annual meet- ing of the state camp, to be held the first Wednesday in May. The state capital wag awarded the honor of entertaining the North Dakota Wood- men in 1916, and it seems, probable that if Bismarck bestirs itself it may again enjoy this pleasure in 1917. The state capital is favored for Wood- men meetings because of its central location and its excellent facilities for the entertainment of large gath- erings. Secretary Keniston of the Commercial club has extended the state camp a cordial invitation, and its acceptance is looked for by local Woodmen. The Modern Woodmen of America, which is one of the nation's most rapidly growing fraternal orders, now has 14,765 active camps in the United States, and 326 camps in North Dakota. Each of the camps in the state will be entitled to at least one delegate. A majority will have more, ag representation is based up on membership units, and Bismarck should have the honor of entertain- The house dealt kindly with this bill, but the senate swatted it. State Auditor Kositzxy, whose mid- dle name is “Economy,” was not through, however, as he proved with- in the last week by inducing the emergency commission to transfer this unexpended balance to his clerk hire fund, where it now rests, avall- able for the employment of more clerks and more, ad infinitum.

If they had an established date for Easter, .business men say, they could carry on their trades on a firmer basis and’ so save $10,000,000 a year.
