When she rode into Bis- marck on Aug, 30, 1872, the town was a rude collection of shacks and tents housing a few soldiers, track men em- ployed on the Northern Pacific grade, Indians and half. breeds, traders and gamblers. Buffalo -roamed_ the - hills near the city; killings wore of fre- quent occurrence; Bismarck was the last frontier—a bridge across the Mis- souri was barely dreamed of.

She is a splen- didly preserved woman of unusual in-} telligence and vivacity, and she is be- ing depended upon to assist Bismarck with the celebration of its semicen- tennial in 1922. ** 4 EMPLOYES DINNER The’ A. ‘W.

They arc even helping to swell the national treas- ury, for a number of organizations have cludbed together to buy, liberty bonds. , Probably no other. organization in the country has taken up war garden cultivation to. such an exteat as have the Camp Fire Girls.
