The ‘prospects for the coming yea are very promising as a large increase in membership is expected. ‘A good many golf and tennis enthusiasts have already expressed their desire to join the club. Of’ course it is needles: to say that the older members are anxious ‘for the day when they can get on the links and take a mighty swat at the “little elusive pill.” Tae tennis feature of the club: is fast gaining in popularity as they have the finest courts in the’state. All committees have promised their best efforts: to the club, The house committee expect to have the cafe’ feature the same as last year, under the excellent management of Mrs, R. H. Smith, The grounds, committee will ‘start the steam roller over the course as soon as possible. . The links will bc taken care of by, Thomas O'Leary wito has demonstrated his ability in the Past as a grounds keeper. The tourn- ament committees are arranging. a good program for the season. It was jecided to have the formal club open: ing on May Day so the events they have planned would not be crowded A Year Book will be published fn he near future and mailed to all nembers, This is surely the year when we nust endeavor to get as much out of life as possible, under the: present stress. and the Bismarck Country clu), with fits. excellent links and asphai: ennis courts, affords the most health: ful and attractive amusement for botir young and old. The large cluv house with its broad porches is a most rest- ful place and offers x wonderful view of the beautiful Missouri valley end city of Bismarck. Acountry club such as we have in Cismarck is one of the dest advertisc- ments a city .can possibly have an] especially so for one the’ size of Bis- marck. A great deal of credit is due the members in maintaining a club o¢ Shis character. JAMES W. FOLEY DEVOTES HIS TALENT TO ENTERTAINING SAMMIES IN TRAINING CAMPS The jollitine clipping from a Texas paper tells of the work ‘of James W. Foley who is spending his time enter- taining the soldiers at. the various camps: James W. Foley, Poet-humorist : of National fame, who is spending three weeks in San Antonio entertaining soldiers at the various camps, is mak- ing a hit at Camp Travis. Each ‘night the buildings of the Army Y¥. M.C. A. under whose auspices he is working are filled’'to capacity. Last night he appearéd before 500 men at the Camp) a Travis Remount Station, and tonight he will.be. at .“‘Y” Building. No. 28. Friday and Saturday nights he will be at Buildings 73. and 33, Mr. Foley. is really preaching, though ‘the boys say it doesn’t: sound like it. ‘His method is simply to begin talking ‘tothe: men before hini, and vefore’ they: know it he has run-into verse, all of which is original and de- livered with telling effect. Before his program'’Has been. under way ten minutes'he has his auditors with him, and after that’ it is an orgy of tears | laughter: ° ’ 4 Percales at per yard .. terns to choose from. : We have about 1500 yards of i to Bo out on this great house price of per.yard:s >*Honse cleaning sale on choice Cheese Cloth | Our COME EARLY!

Antonio -be- fore he leaves the city. His fame as a humorist ts going before him, with the result that the number coming to hear him fs rapidly increasing. It is his theory that.nobody wants to. hear poetry if they know it in advance. That is why he “kids” his - hearers along until he “gets them going.” Aft- er that it’s easy, and before he is through with a program he has given @ “laughfest” and preached a dozen sermons. Partly becduse of the sentiment ex- pressed but as much because of the way in which he recites it, “A Tale of the Trail,” by James W. Foley is mak- ing a wonderful hit with the soldier ‘boys of Camp Travis. Mr. Foley is spending three weeks in the city und- er the auspices of the Army Y. M. C. A. and before he leaves will visit all the camps here. The closing lines of “A Tale of the Trail,” “An’ when I see some man who looks as though he'd gone astray, I ‘want to shove my hand in his an’ help This life’s a middlin’ crooked trail, an’ after forty year Of knockin’ ‘round I'm free to say th’ right ain’t always clear, I've seen a lot of folks go wrong—j| get off the main highroad An’ fetch in a | swamp somewhere, almost where they knowed. I don't pretend to be no judge of right and wrong in men, T ain’t been perfect all my life, an’ may not be again; An’ when I see-a man who looks as though he'd gone astray, I think perhaps he started right, but somewhow lost his way. I lke to think th’ good in folks by far outweighs the ill; Th’ trail of life is middlin’ hard, and lots of it up hill. There's places where there. ain't no guides or signboards up, an’ so It’s partly guess: work an’ part luck] .. which way you chance to go, I've see th’ trails fork some myself, an’ when I had to choose I wasnt sure when I struck out if it was win or lose. So when I see a man who looks as though he’d gone astray I like to think he started right an’ only lost his way. I’ve seen a lot of folks start out with |’ grit an’ spunk’ to scale Th’ hills that purple over ‘there an’ somehow lost th’ trail. T’'ve seen ’em:' stop an’ start again, not sure about th’ road, An’ found ’em lost on some blind trail almost before they ‘knowed. I've seen ’em circlin’. tired out, with every pathway blind With cliffs before veni, mountain high, an’ sloughs an’ swamps be- hind, I've seen ’em stringin’ through the’ dust, when twilight’s gettin’ gray,! A-lookin’ for th’ main highroad—poor chaps who've lost their way. It ain’t so far from right to wrong— th’ trail ain’t hard to lose, There’s times I'd: almost give my, horse to know. which one to, choose. There ain’t no signhoards on th’ road t-keep you on the track, Wvong’s. sometimes white as driven snow, an’ right looks awful black! I don’t set up to be no judge of right * an’ wrong in men, I’ve lost the trail sometimes myself— T may get lost again, ‘An’ when I see some man who looks as though he'd gone astray I want to shove my hand in his an’ help him find th’ way.

Business of Importance ‘ 4 oe night.. Both mother and baby are re- ported ‘as doing nicely. ; principal conscientious objectors are the young ladies. Getting to work at 8 sharp means starting out for a long cold mile tramp at 7:30, they contend. The capitol car cannot always be re- lied upon in cold and stormy, weather, and the stenographers and other of- fice, help of the feminine persuasion contend that 9 o'clock, the hour which has been in force for some years past is plenty early enough. If the order is enforced, it is predicted there will be trouble. Commander, Returns Home. Mrs. A. S. Nielsen has just returned from Chicago, where she has been do- ing her spring buying.
