-Tribune, once a week for four succes- ie “DANIEL BOONE: GOING 10’ RUIN Year-Old House Was ’- Tenanted FARM IS WORTH $15,000.00 Reading, Pa., March 23,—Deterior- ated by the elements it has withstood for 192 years, the. stone house in the; foothills of Exter ‘township, Berks county, where Daniel Boone, the Ken- tucky pioneer, was born, is slowly falling to ruin from lack of care. Un- til two years ago the house had been tenanted and the. necesgary repairs N made, but now it is deserted, the cellar | - full of water, windows broken, floors decaying and the 160 acres of estate are uncared for. The farm ig situated about one and a half miles from Stonersville, The Jane leading fo the premises is marked bya large white rock placed by the Higtorical Society of Berks county, on which is the inscription: “One quarter mile to the, birthplace of Dan- iel Boone, Oct. ‘2, 1783.” In this connection it may be said) that some authorities'’give the date of | his birth as 1734 and 1735, and! his birthplace Bucks county, Pennsyl- vania, ‘According to history Boone stayed: here. until he was17 years of age, when he went to Kentucky. Tradition hag it that it was nearby that he killed hifg first-bear when he was 14 \years ol® and he. was’ go'.proud of his achievement that he carved an in- scription on @ tree with hig hunting knife, reading: “D. Boone killed a bar near here.” The house has four rooms on the fifet floor, six on the second and an attic. The original Boone dwelling had two rooms on the first-floor and three gn the:second, but an addition siffilar to. the-original in every re- spéct was made after the family mi- grated." 5 One of the: original rooms contains a large fireplace made of stones and| still in. good condition. Here it was on the mantlepiece , according to tra- dition, that young Boone carved notch indicating. his height when he went to Kentucky, and upon his re- turn in middle-age_was interested to see how much he had grown. How- ever, the historie notch cannot be discovered on the mantle piece. The shutters and doors of the dwelling are hung on wrought iron hinges and still are in good condition, but many of the windows are broken, permitting rain and snow to enter and causing the floor to decay. ‘Efforts have been made to have the state purchase the house where the pioneer was born, and still more re- cently, there have ‘been reports that} the Historical Society of Clarke Coun- ty, Ky., has interested itself in the possible purchase of the farm for historical ' purposes. The farm is valued at $15,000 according to late estimates. : $ 2 NOTICE OF CITATION, HEARING OF - AMENDED FINAL ‘ACCOUNT AND.

HAIL INSURANCE ‘DEPT, 18 BUSY Sending Out Many Blanks To Be Used in 1922 Season ,, Workers inj the office of the Hail In- surance Department have just finished sending out to, the assessors and the county auditors of North Dakota ‘the supplies necessary for the reports sent to the Hail Insurance depart- ment for the year. Seven toris of pa- per were handled making up the dit- ferent packages and some of the in- dividual blanks. sent out. numbered into the millions. One blank alone was used which called for the print- ing of 1,200,000 copies. That North Dakota’s “hail insurance business is in a class by itself as far as volume is concerned is indicated by Mr. Hagen in showing that the private and old line companies collected for premiums somewhere between eight and nine million dollars for 1921. This ig a drop of fifty per cent fram the year preceding. For thi year North Dakota collected in premiums about two thirds this amount or somewhere around six million dollars. The act- ual premiums were added to for the year by the three -ent flat tax. One of the methods of doing busi- ness in the Hail Insurance depart- ment has received the approval of the Attorney General’s department, in one of the points not yet covered by thet opinion of the supreme court. Mr. Hagen asked the department to make a ruling on the point of the interest involved wheye a farm is sold and this sale divides the actual interest in the evrop on the farm. The attorney gen- eral ruled that the previous practice of the Hail Department of writing a separate warrant wor each interest irvolved followed the law and this in- terpretation will be followed until points in some particular case are pre- sented to the supreme court. The de- partment, is not expecting to make a test case of this, but does expect. it will come up Some time in the usual routine of their business. EXPLOSION CAUSE OF $50,000 FIRE Turtle Lake, \N.

Club? — : Because—It is the one big organization through which the indi- vidual may work and make his ideas ‘for the improvement o! the city into deeds. oh Because—Through the united activity of the individual working q to the best interests of all, it becomes the principal business asset of the community. be Because—It creates a community-of-interest spirit not possible through any other organization. s - Because—Of its value to the commumity—serve it. Assume the work you are best suited to do and do it cheerfully. Improve it by offering your suggestiors and advice. Help guide it by y making your criticisms at meetings, not on the outside, Because of its importance, demand a competent force but allow them some time to rest and.gather new ideas. Because of all this—not only pay your dues promptly, but. “spend” yourseii in aiding through the Commercial Club to make your town, a better place in which to live and do business, _F. L. CONKLIN, Secretary. There are three things that every Commercial Club should en- deavor to be: First, a general clearing-house for information ‘con- cerning the city. Second, a stimulator of business and social ac: - tivities. Third, the guardian of the general business welfa) especially as to freight rates, credit information, fake. promotions, and the like. , i pean: I believe the ‘Bismarck Commercial Club is a good organization whose record of accomplishments heretofore merits our support for the future. * e future —R.

Time and patience coupled with determined, unselfish effort will produce the desired result. —F. A. LAHR. You may ask what business has a Commercial Club to perform such a service for its members, .The answer is this: As an asso- ciation of business men, we are spelter, equipped to do this work for our members than they are therhselves. We have a central office and can serve all in an equitable manner, keeping the list con- stantly in'the best condition. Furthermore, we are helping to build a bigger and better city. You will always find a successful retailer - among the enthusiastic boosters. —P. J, MEYER. The Commercial Club is the business man’s agent through which he expresses his opinion on the public welfare. It offers at the same time, a practical and enlightened method for reaching a scorrect opinion. Through committee meetings, with their discus- sions, assembling of pertinent data, and frequent introduction of testimony from experts and specialists invited to appegr before the committees, a sound procedure is provided for reaching correct conclusions. The individual, working alone, cannot attain such a high average of sound opinions as will be possible when his efforts are assisted by active membership in’a Commercial Club. Thus a Commercial Club provides a local clearing house for the crystalliza- tion of well-thought-out communityopinion on subjects of local, state and national scope. —O’BRIEN BROS., Gf Minute Lunch, “The work of a Commercial Club,” to quote the words of a former Secretary of the New York Chamber, “is not to destroy competition, like 2 monopoly or a trades union.

On the other hand, it develops a spirit of fair play. It establishes, as it were, the rules of the game and often acts as umpire when dis- putes arise. It does something more. While merchants may eagerly compete for business, yet they have, even as competitors, certain large interests in common, so that in the Commercial Club they are competitors meeting together and working together on committees —BURT FINNEY. ~ for certain objects which they all desire.” The citizen who growls about his town being the “worst ever” js assisting in its burial. The business man who will not advertise is driving the hearse. The citizen who is a chronic grumbler.and always pulling back in every public enterprise is throwing bouquets on the grave. The citizen who “knocks” and howls “hard times” preaches the funeral service. —E, B. KLEIN, It’s a funny thing. The same people who oppose a public im- provement will eventually boast of it the loudest, Your organization is designed to promote thinking along com- munity lines. Too many people think along the lines of their-own particular business or job, with no thought to'spare for the city. —FRANK,G. GRAMES. s Why a Commer Club Should Interest Itself in the -When the great struggle was on overseas, one of the big s to keep the allied peoples and the American army fed. cently we heard that unless the American farmer is ma- assisted, this great nation may have to import foodstuifs. The fundamental industry is not receiving the attention it must have if America -is to eat. The power of the Commercial Club can be a tower of help to the agriculturist and there is, much it. can definitely and constructively do to keep this splendid producing force going forward, The farmer's success also means much to the community. Just whatiis his problem? Where does thg Club fit in? \ _J, Pp. FRENCH. The man who benefits most from the work of a Commercial Club is generally the biggest kicker. The best man in town is the man who gives his time and money towards making the city; better for all to live in. —J. C. ANDERSON, No greater truth can be stated than to say that every man’s rating as a citizen should be in proportion to his services to the publig, whether in private or public effort, or both, —wW. E. PERRY. The Commercial Club of Bismarck should include everyone who is interested in the welfare and progress of his community. —N. 0. RAMSTAD, I wish to commend the work done by the Commercial Club during the past year, both for its value to Bismarck as a whole and to each individual member of the organization. While there has been no fireworks and horn-blowing, yet the Club has always been quietly and efficiently on the job for the best interests of the city. It works while most of us sleep and when we wake up everything seems to be all right, so we say the Club has done nothing. If it were not there while we sleep there would be some rude. awaken- ings for Bismarck’s citizens and things would seem sadly out of joint. —GEORGE WILL, (Adverti3ement.)
