Miss McPake will enter the Army Upree corps after a brief vacation at home with her mother in Moline, Ill. Miss McPake though a young wom- an has long been a leader in her pro- fession. Eefore coming to Bismarck, she was prominent in nursing circles i the states of Illinois, also and Iowa, being a member of. the, State Nurses’ association, also Superintendents’ As- sociation in Iowa and a,member of the League of Nursing Education. Miss McPake came well. prepared for her duties here in the new St. Alex- jus Hospital having had: three years’ experience .as superintendent of nurses, Mercy Hospital,,. Burlington, Jowa, Three weeks after her arrival in Bismarck on the 6th of April, 1915, she opened the training school for nurses. The history of the training school will always be proceeded by the faith- effect in the near ful labor of the Sisters. The path had , been blazed with about thirty years of untiring work, where the present pres- ent reputation of St. Alexius was laid. some years ago the Sisters opened a training school, but on account of the MANY AUTOMOBILE PARTIES MADE UP TO TAKE IN BRITTIN DANCE a number of automobile parties are being formed in Bismrck to drivae to- morrow evening to Bullock's grove, on the Mof{it road, 1 1-2 miles south of Brittin, for a Red Cross bowery dance, auction sale and supper to be given under the auspices of the Brit- tin chapter of the: Red Cross. An el- aborate all-day “affair has ‘been plan- ned, with public speaking and an auc- tion sale during the afternoon. A cafe Telephone Men | a Pledge Loyalty In its closing session Thursday, the North Dakota Telephone association adopted’ the following resolution, which was forwarded by wire-to Pres- ident’ Wilson: « “The North Dakota Telephone as- sociation pledges its loyal support to the assistance of all war activities and to the promotion of loyal and patriotic sentiment and further pledges a con- tinuance of the highest possible state of efficiency during teh war. “H.

The state sausage factory is boom- ing, the entire product at present finds its way to the east end of London, but at present the factory is able to supply but part of the demand for its prod- ‘ucts, gue ‘ At the ministry of food it is dented that other factories will be opened shortly. Lack of raw material is given as the reason. Ground 'His Finger Tips. Carl.

The historian should get the material for that chapter:from the provost mar- shal. He is the chief of police, so far-as the Americans are concerned, I am at present living with a regl- ment. stationed in a ps French vil- to time we can hear the booming of the guns on the battle front, keeping the boys. always reminded of the direction in which they are headed, writes a correspond: ent of the New York Times. There are few French folk in the place; they moved to where It is safer. And so the Americans are pretty much In control of the town, and incidentally, there are about ten times as many American soldiers here as there ever were civilian Frenchmen and French- women. They are quartered in every available house, and in some that would not be available were it not that they had to be. 5 In one that falls in the latter cate- gory I am living. Myself, this type- writer, and some blankets are the only furniture it has. To get out of my room I have to go through the room of the provost marshal. His room is better than mine; it has a bed. He didn’t know it was a bed until the owner of the house put in a charge for billets. Under the army plan, a room with a bed in it costs one franc a day, but if there is.no bed the charge Is only 30 centimes. And so the provost marshal knows he has a bed to sleep on and not a box. It says so in the official records of the war department of the United States. We were tin-| specting the room of the provost mar- shal the other day and noticed a part of the wall at one end was corrugated steel. We pushed it up, and lo, there was a fireplace. We immediately call- ed the owner of: the house and demanded .© fire. It was very diffl- cult, he’said, bécnuse he had no wood, and never used fire except for cook- ing. Threat to Burn Bed. When we convinced him that unless we got, wood quickly the provost mar- shal’s bed was going to be sacrificed he changed his mind about the diffi- culty and sald that perhaps for five francs it might bé that someone had some wood to sell. He got the five francs. and two hours later reappeared with three bundles of fagots, explain- ing his delay by saying that on the wny he had stopped to milk three cows. We got the fire started and quickly saw that at the rate the fagots burned we were soon going to be cold again, We explained to the man. of the house that we must have big pieces of wood. He r..lled that only the cure had such wood, and that It was impossible to buy wood from the cure, and besides it was Sunday. The pro- vost marshal gave him ten francs and told him.to bring the wood. And he did. I was sorry I didn’t go along to ree how he got the wood from the cure on Sunday,. but the main point was that he got it. The provost marshal has dominion only over the misbe- havior of Americans, and so it was none of our affair how the man got the wood. But when it comes to Americans this provost marshal is a very differ- ent man. He ts a young first lieuten- ant, and his home {s in New York city. He has told me that after the war he Is going to get out of the army. He hasn't said what he is going to do, but I think he {s training to be a rival of one William J. Burns. He has to do some very nice detective work. The American soldiers behave gen- eratly like a lot of college boys in their moments of relaxation, but it {s not to be supposed that they don’t break loose a bit at times. And be- cause they do the provost marshal has his hands full, and sometimes the lock- up. As college boys do, the soldiers make it as difficult as possible for the provost guard to obtain material for conviction of violators of army rules. It whs eight o’clock {n the morn- img. The provost marshal was sleep- ing soundly, having got to bed at one o'clock after his last round of the vil- lage streets, which he found de- serted of the regiment's “comedians,” as the trouble mukers are called. There was a loud rapping at his door and the “Y” man entered to say that early in the morning the Y. M. C. A. hut had been entered and one box of cigars and one baseball taken, and that the damage was 35 francs. He asked that it would not happen again. The Heutenant thanked him for the information and sent for a corporal of the military ‘police, and put him:on Stolen Bottle of Wine, Ten minutes later a large French woman came with the information that & bottle of vin ordinaire had disap- peared from her shop and that she Soe There is nothing worse than bad, foul smelling breath; get rid of it, for your friend's sake anyway.

M,.0..A. ~ | “Good,” says the provost mershal, Go back and ask him where he got it. The corporal departed and as he went out of the door a private entered in a bedraggled state, He, explained ‘that he had got lost the night before and when he located himself ‘he had lost p hundred francs and that the seat of his trousers had heen cut out. He didn’t remember just what time it was done. Noticing his insignia, the Heu- tenant said sharply “Go back to your own, regiment. Stay home aid stay sober and you can keep your money,” and turning to me he said, “that was good dope for me in, New York; it ought to work here.” : Here the. M. P. corporal returned. * “I came to report to the Ifeutenant,” he sald; that I asked Private —— where he got his cigar, and he. sald it was given him‘by a friend and he can’t remember who.” “All right,” sald the provost marshal ; “gtick on: ‘the, case and you might watch out for any baseball games.” Then came in the large French wom: an fo say that she:had five witnesses who saw an American take her bottle of wine. The lieutenant thanked ‘her. Then the Y, M. C. A. man entered and said he didn’t want any one punished for taking the cigars and baseball, and that he was glad they had not taken more. He had had his breakfast. A moment later an M. P. sergeant entered to say that he had arrested a private on suspicion of having taken the bottle of wine, and that he had been, identified by the large French ‘woman's five witnesses as.the culprit. On the other hand, the’sergeant added, the private had five other privates who would swear five different sorts of alibis for him, a Tribune Want Ads Bring Results. Third Off deducted. asortment.
