Her figures in- dicated the scope of the work and the energy with which the members tac- kled a big job. Mrs; Conklin paid a high tribute to the.many women who devoted so much time in the work rooms, and during the flu epidemic. An interesting feature of the evening was a report from Miss Agnes Orr, Burleigh county's only Red Cross rep- resentative in the war zone, Migs Orr told entertainingly of her experience at the various convalesent stations in southern France. She said that the love the men bore to the Red Cross was intense and that all who had en- gaged in the ‘work felt so amply re- paid because of the gratitude reflected on all sides. Miss Orr estimated that during her four months service that she had made 32,000 cups of chocolate for the men, She told of the many recreation features planned for the men, of their tenderness to the French blind and wounded who ‘were often en- tertained at the American hospitals. Has Enviable Record i Miss Orr made an enviable record. The hospital where she was in a high| executive position was especially cited to General Pershing for its efficiency, fine discipline and the general meral She state that she was brought close to home one day when! she opened a package of garments and found that they had been made by the; women of the Dickenson Red Cross Dr. Smyth who has handled the civilian relief work at a very low ex- penditure and a maximum of good ser- David H.

Bismarck as yet has not been able to make provision! for this“work- but it is hoped in time that adequate aid will be extended so; that government?aid will be available. Probably the Red Cross through its ex- ecutive committee can take up this and provide the necessary funds so that the local clinic can be started. Dr. Smyth commended the spirit of the men who applied for relief and noted several instances where the men re-| turned the money when they obtained work. - Mrs. Thomas Poole gave a report of the financial condition of the chapter which has been published by the audi- There is a balance of $10,090! is now in the Burleigh county banks on certificates of deposit.

PATHFINDERS NOT TO VISIT CAPITAL Big Air Cavaleade Recalled by Orders From Washington The’ people of Bismarck will not have the opportunity of seeing the All-American Pathfinders, consisting of nine airplanes and five ‘balloons and manned by twenty-one officers and 121 enlisted men, this year since they have, been’ ordered demobilized by the war department. The tour of the Pathfinders through the west has been widely advertised and many. will be disappointed that the trip has been terminated. before the air ships reached here. : The letter telling of the decisior of the war department and received this morning is printed below. General G. A. Fraser, Bismarck, N. D. Dear General Fraser: I regret very much to report that the secretary of war has called in the All-America Pathfinders. In addition to the cold, uncertain weather, and the condition of the roads, it was found that the flying machines were getting too old. They were of the old trainingtype and had been in use two years. E - It is the plan of the government. to continue the work begun by the All- American Pathfinders, next, spring when the roads dry up,.and f am as- sured that Bismarck and the other Our Best Apverrisers — BISMARCK, N.

LAST NIGHT TO SCHOOL BOARD ASKING $100 INCREASE IN THEIR ANNUAL PAY Intimate Mysteries of the Bou- doir Revealed in Schedule They Draw Up to Show Where Their Slender Earnings Go Committee Named to Investi gate Matter. A committee consisting of five teach: ers of the city schools and two, mem. bers of the school board was named lust night to investigate the com- |plaints made, by 26 teachers that their present: salaries: were insufficient to ;meet present liviug costs aud request- ing a $100 annual increase. This action followed a meeting of the teachers with the board of educa- tion at the high school at which sev- cral citizens were present. ‘The mect- ing was entirely: harmonious, without avy threats oft walkouts or strikes if the teachers’ request was not granted. The members of the board intimat that if a way could be found to grant this request that body would do so. In support of their plea for an in- crease in pay, the teachers presented a schedule of living costs which gave some intimate details of what school teachers were and what they need. This schedule ,showed that they 1eeded $1,187 at- least, whereas. the majority of those present are reciv- ing several hundreds of dollars less than that, THE CAUSE ‘The schedule. with all of the teach- ers’ boudoir secrets revealed, is as fol- lov Board and room, $500; summer at home; $100; dresses, underwear, in- cluding summer woolens and lingerie, hose, shoes, stockings, gloves,. corsets, coats, suits, $850 (no mention being made when the hose: were worn) ; in- cidentals, such ag tooth paste, powder, and cream, $12; carfare, $75; savings, S75; insurance, $25. In addition there tre the doctor, dentist, church, charity and amusements, , Miss Frances Mallory, principal, of the William Moore. school, acted as chairwoman -and called on various teachers to present their side of. the story. . Miss Vivien Irish compared the present” high cost ‘of living with their salaries and showed how neces- sary it was to secure the $100 raise. Miss Irish“ made “a considerable im- pression, either. by her argument or for Some other reason, but it could be plainly seen that. right there the cause was won. The school board was swamped. .

Both the board and the teachers wish that everybody inter- este] in the matter. would attend the raeeting. * Those. present last. night - were,’ .be- sides those mentioned above: » George board, room and laundry required one- half of what a teacher gets. She also pointed out. that the poorest stenog- repher at the capitol received $100'a nonth, twelve months in the year, with a month’s vacation thrown in ly an indulgent. state. Miss Tibbetts felt that her-$850 a year suffered by comparison. “Many of us go to summer schools -|to keep abreast “with our profession. This costs money.. We spend a great deal of time and money on our edu- cation and to get experience. And yet we are the poorest paid workers,” wag Miss Tibbetts’ closing argument. Mrs. H. H. Steele, who prided her- self on the fact that she waS once a school teacher, took up the défense of the ‘moulders of character” and said, more to do with the building of my children’s characters than all other in- fluences combined..
