Oysters are due back from their summer vacation next month, No news may be good news; but WHAT TI BRIDGE MEANS Many opinions have been voiced | as to the effect of the new Missouri ; river. bridge on the development! of Bismarck and Bismarck terri-' tory. Speculation has been rife! Y ions uttered with all and cone the, positiveness of the political | prog ator, After all is said and done it seems a logica] ¢con- clugion*to say that the new bridge ns to Bismarck just what Bis- wills it -to mean, . For’ aj highway paved with gold is of no benefit to a community unless it aryes a useful purpose. Nor will) the bridge bring to Bismarck the full measure of benefit predicted by the, citizens who..worked so hard for’ its “building unless isthe com- munity as a whole sees the possi- bilities for extension of the *busi- ness usefulness of Bismarck to her neighbors in all parts of western |! North Dakota. No citizen should forget for one instant that the spanning of the, Missouri river with a free vehicular bridge i; a project far beyond the ordinary. It was only because gov-| ernment engineers realized the im-} portance of removing a natural im- pediment in the trans-country high- | way passing through Bismarck that | the; federal government participat- ed in the expense of building the, bridge. It was only because the} te legislature realized the im-| e portance of linking the Twin Cities of the Slope and of joining closer the great sections of territory on) either-side of the river that it ap-| propriated money for its building. 'The citizens of Morton and Bur- leigh counties pinned their faith in the bridge as an important project in the development of both coun-j ties) when they. voted to spend county money on it, The bridge means not merely 2| quicker method of crossing the} Missouri river, though it is a well- known fact that thousands of auto-; mobile tourists have avoided the National Parks Highway because; they feared delay in crossing the river by ferry or held an unreason— able but natural fear of the conse- quences of crossing so large a river, The next decade will see a great growth in motor transporta— tion, particularly in the carrying of products by freight. The bridge! and paved highways on either side | will be an important factor in re- ducing’ the cost of motor transpor- tation, will bring markets closer to thousands of farmers and scores of towns closer to distributors. It} should increase the intercourse of | Mandan and Bismarck citizens and develop a new community of inter- est. It was nearly fifty years ago when the Missouri was first spanned | by the Northern Pacific bridge. Hardly less important to the de- velopment. of a great territory, id the. second ‘spanning of’ thie ‘river for-the newer methods of tragpspor- tation. It is proper and fitting that citizens: of Mandan ,and Bismarck should join in a celebration on September! 18, ,19-dnd 20, of the completion of the bridge. Do not let the bridge ‘be a for-| gotten monument to the vision of a few Citizens. ath very Bismarck business man, let Wkly citizen not engaged in private business, join today in a campaign to spread in-/ formation—not mere propaganda— as to the importance of the new bridge in opening new possibilities for development and growth which will be. of benefit to the citizens of the western half of the state. The publicity campaign should start, now. Invite your friends to the} celebration and insist that they} come. ‘Let business men in their) advertising and publicity spread! the-work, If the celebration is to be a suc a great publicity cam- paign in which every business man and-every other person is enrolled must begin today. INCREASE IN AUTOS Akron Chamber of Commerce finds 1,432,051 more autos. regis- tered in the United States than a yedr ago. How do you reconcile this big gath with the “hard times” of the Jest 12 months? Admittedly, times haye been none too prosperous, A few suffered acutely. But, com- pared with the panics of 1873 and 1898, our generation doesn’t know what real depression is. Luxuries havexbecome such necessities that we are softened—wince at the least pain, 3 A DOG TEMPLE For’ 80 years no visitors were al- Jowed. in the Mellon home in Mil- watikee. Firemen broke in. They found the place a dog temple. Nine mummified dogs, expensively draped, lay in state in the candle- lighted parlor. In an upstairs room a Queen dog presided over eight living dogs, blinded by lack of light. It all sounds like some weird religious rite.

Robert’s body was on the floor of the locked; office, Mark had disappeared and in the eyes of Police Inspector Birch, it was clear that Mark, who had viewed Robert’s return from Australia with annoyance, had shot his brother and. then disappeared. © But there were mysterious cir-| cumstances. The shot was heard just a few moments before ANTONY GILLINGHAM, gentle- man adventurer and friend of BILL BEVERLEY, one of Mark’s guests, entered the hall where he found MATT CAYLEY, Mark’s ‘constant ecmpanion, pounding. on , the locked door and demanding ~ad- thittance, ‘The two. men entered the office through a window and discovered the body. ‘Later, Autony vagucly suspects Cayley. . Bill tells him that Mark was upset a few evenings ago when one of the guests appeared as a gliost on the bowling-green, An- tony and Bill discuss various the- ories of the murder. GO ON WITH THE STORY “No, that’s rather hopeless, isn’t it?” Bill thought again. “Well, he said reluctantly, “suppose Mark confessed that he’d murdered his brother?” ¢ “That's better, Bill. Don’t be afraid of getting away from the ac- cident idea. Well then, your new; theory is this, Mark confesses to Cayley that he shot Robert on pur pose, and Cayley decides, even ai the risk of committing perjury, and getting into trouble himself, to help Mark to escape. Is that right?” Bill nodded. se “Well then, I want to ask you two questions, First, is it possible, as I said before dinner, that. any man would commit suchi™an idiotic mur- der—a murder that puts the rope so very tightly round his neck? Secondly, if Cayley is prepared to; perjure himself for, Mark (as he has to, anyway, now), wouldn’t it) be simpler for him to say that he was in the office all the time, and that Robert's death was acciden— tal?” be Bill considered this carefully, and then nodded slowly again. “Yes, my simple explanation is a wash-out,” he said. “Now let’s have yours.” Antony did not answer him. He had begun to think about something quite different. CHAPTER IX. “Whats the matter?” said Bill sharply. Antony looked round at him with raised eyebrows. ‘ “You’ve’ thought of something suddenly,” said Bill, “What is it?” Antony laughed. “My deaf Watson,” he said, “you aren’t supposed to be as clever as this, Well, I was wondering about this ghost of yours, Bill, This is where she appeared, isn’t it?” “Yes.” “How?” “How? -How do ghosts appear? I don’t know. They just appear.” “But how did Miss Norris ap-|: pear suddenly—over five hundred yards of bare park?” . Bill looked at Antony with open mouth. ¢ | “I—-T don't know,” he stammered. | ‘“We never thought of that.” “You would have seen her long} before, wouldn't you, if, ahe had come the way we came?” “Of course we should.” “and that would have spoilt it WHAT THE SAM HILL 1S THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE THE GREAT AMERICAN HOME | 7 ATTER u fe RED HOUSE MYSTERY to recognize her walk.
