The building will be erected in the middle block, with the remaining plots transformed into a magnificent city plaza, ‘At one ex- terior of the memorial site Is located the Federal Postoffice building, erect- ed at a cost of $6,000,000, Facing the outer end of the plaza !s the’ $3,000,- 000 city library. Tentative plans for the construction of the buildings are now in the hands of a state commission, of which Post- master General Will H. Hays is a member, Selection of the architect will be made by the National Institute of Architecture, following a contest in DR, T. VICTOR KEENE. which all architects of America have been invited to participate. The legis- lature set aside a fund of $100,000 to defray expenses of the contest and to award the artist whose designs and plans are adopted a prize of $50,000. Invitations have been issued, to na- tional headquarters of the Grand Ar- my of the Republic, the Women’s Re- lef Corps, Service Star Legion, Amer- fcan War Mothers, Spanish War Vet- erans and. Women's Auxiliary of the Legion to occupy quarters in the Me- morial building along with the Legion. To Dr. T. Victor Keene, national executive committeeman of Indiana, will go much of the credit for making the war memorial possible. Dr. Keene fathered the movement from Its in- fancy and fought for it when otlier Legionnaires, ‘although supporting-the| 5 fight, .were fearful of success. Dr. Keene was the first officer of the reserve corps of any branch of service called to active duty during the World war. ‘He was a cajonel, medical corps, in command of base hospital 70,over- seas, THE “MOTHER OF THE BONUS” Friendly Title Assigned to Kansas ‘Woman:Member of the Legisiature and Called “Legisiady.” hae: — Mra. Ida M, Walker, first woman member. of the Kansas legislature, is honored by Amer- ican Legion mem- “Mother of | the Bonus,” for it was Mrs, Walker who drew up ~ and pushed through a state bonus, which grants ex-service military or naval service during the World war. Although Mrs. Walker cannot quall-| fy for membership in the Legion or in §ts Women’s Auxillary, she has been @ tireless worker.for the cause which| brought the organizations into exist-| ence, and for which they now. stand. During the World war: she was state} director of women’s work in the Bel- gian relief fund and‘also seryed as food administrator for her county. The “Mother of the Bonus” also assists her husband in the publication of a weekly newspaper .and is a former president of the Kansas Federation of Women’s Clubs. The advent of Mrs. Walker to the legislature resulted in the coining of a new word. At loss to distinguish between male dnd female members, the recent session decided to refer to Women lawmakers or -“legisladies.” Lf HOUSES WAN For quick results- sell your Bismarck property Mst with Henry & Henry.

There were two acts, 14 scenes, and 17 songs in “Sinbad” to which elab- orate program the. energetic Jolson added’a few songs not on the program, and probably would have been sing- ing yet had he waited until he wore out his welcome on the stage. A Country Club scene, a scene in Bag-) dad, some leaping greyhounds, a rait on the briny deep- where Jolson, “In- bad,” and Forrest Huff, “Sinbad,” toss- ed on a raft, and clever dancing help- ed make up the big program. Sue Creighton, Virginia Smith and Helen Eley added beauty and good voices to the show, while William Burns and Eddie Lynn, with Sue Creighton, furnished the dancing. After playing Fargo, “Sinbad” goes to the Twin Cities and then makes a few stops’ before going back to New York to disband. While the crowd here immensely enjoyed the show there was room left for a hundred more in the auditorium. \ While in Bismarck Jolson, who is an athlete of considerable ability, dnd an enthusiastic boxer and golfer, played gelf with E. H. L. Vesperman, M. 8. Gilman and Sam Clark, and he was guest of Edw. G. Patterson on the Mc- Kenzie roof garden after the showing, joining several hundred other people in dancing until an early liour.

It is the race problem, the negro question.” These words of Grover Cleveland are recalled by the Louisville Courier-Journal in its editorial discussion of the sudden and appalling flareup of mob fury and race hatred in Tulsa. In this Oklahoma city, which according to one of its journals “has the highest per-capita wealth of any city ‘in the world,” the rumor that a colored boy’ was to be lynched brought # crowd of armed negroes to the jail to prevent it. With the white mob and the black confronting one another, somebody firdl a shot, and the result was a pitched battle with scores of casualties, the burning of the city’s negro section, and the addition, as the New York Evening Post remarks of ‘a ghastly chapter to the record of national disgrace.” . THE LITERARY DIGEST, in this week’s issuc dated June 18th, presents the “editorial opitfions of newspapers, including the. negro press, published in all.sections of the country ypon the Oklahoma riot: It shows the causes that animate such outbreaks, the refnedies suggested to prevent them, and the effect that the reports of them. have in the eyes of foreign nations. 4 Other important and interesting articles in this number of THE DIGEST are:— ,. |, 3 \ “Harveyized” Diplomiicy’ The-French Chef in the giles Haiti Charges Us With Misrule itt are te ns ha?
