Frills Are Eliminated. At Fargo last year the association f-; appropriated several hundred dollars for a concert course during the con- vention week. A similar sum will be appropriated next week for the work of the Red Cross, and the teachers will dispense with everything other than local entertainment. Of this there will be an abundanc The al cli) comprises Bis- best talent, and it has ar- ranged some attractive programs. In addition, weather permitting, there. will be numerous excursions and other amusement features. Bismarck has hotel facilities a third greater than those which it offered the teachers three years ago, and there will be a relatively smaller de- mand for accommodations in private homes. The latter will not be lack- ing, however, and hundreds of rooms in Bismarck’s best families have been! listed with Secretary Keniston of the Commercial club and Supt. J.
