PAGE TWO REY. VERMILYA IS MOVING TO NEW POSITION Former M. E. District Super-| intendent Is Secretary for | as | * Home Missions FAMILY IN CITY 4 Rev. and M FE. Vermilya| and daughters, M Marjorie andj Mildred, are in Bismarck for a day or two visiting friends on their way trom Palo Alto, Cal., to their future home in New York Rev. Vertilya was made executive sec- retary of the Home Missions Coun- il a few months ago, but is just 1ow’temoving to his headquarters n New York City. The council whigi he heads is made up of the re ies of home mission boards of 28 denominations, and its ob- ject is to promote cooperation be- ween denominations in the expen- diture of money, and in the distri- nution of men. Dr, Vermilya is spending some time in the state cooperating wit! the .state denominational leader: and the representatives of the sev- eral denominational boards in put- ting son a joint field study He} will ‘be in North Dakota for about ten days, and will then go to Washington for similar work, after which he will join his family in} Ohio; and they will go to New York. Harold Vermilya, who has been reaching at Washington for the past-year, joined the family here ind will-accompany them to New York. The entire trip from Cali fornia is ‘being made in a Stude- baker limousine, the family camp- ing wherever tourist camps are provided. They visited Yosemite National Park, Crater Lake, Yel- lowstone national park, going the! Columbia highway from Oregon. | Before entering Oregon, they were required to be disinfected fromthe foot and mouth disease, all travelers from California being required to do so. Found Paved Roads From Palo Alto %o Portland, they found the roads paved almost ail the way, and also in northern Idaho the highways were in won- derful condition. Starting on their tripton Jane 27, they have averaged cuanto miles a day when not making any stops, and have already traveled over 3,300 miles. “Everywhere the tourist camps are almost luxuriously equipped” said Mrs. Vermilya, “but nowhere more so than in Oregon. In the Medford camp we found cottages to rent, furnished with gag stoves, electric irons, and every conven- ience. And all the camps were cvowded with tourists.” The Vermflya's will visit friends in Valley City, and will camp at Walker, Minn., for some time, and will visit relatives in Ohio. In New York, Miss Marjorie and Mildred, who will both be juniors next year, will enter Columbia, as will Harold Vermilya, who will take: post-graduate work. Dr. Vermilya and his family are wel known in Bismarck, as he was distfict superintendent of the Methodist church here for four years. C. Seeks Cooperation “After a number of years of ex- perience ag a district superintend- eut and representative of the board of home missions of the Methodist church in the West, I am convinced that. the time is here when the various denominations must find a way.through cooperation to provide Christian service in many of the smaller and weaker communities, said-Dr. Vermilya, “The solution of this “does not seem to lie in the Union church, but in the division of territory whereby Christian for- ces retain connection with the werld service program and prevent the increase of church organiza- tions.as the Union movement seems to be encouraging.” TAKES CHARGE : OF CLINIC Dr, L. O. Simonstad who has been connected with the city and county hospital in St. Paul arrived in the city ‘yesterady to take charge of the, traveling clinic sent out by the Tubegculosis Association during the summer months. He will be assisted in his work by Edna Gaither, tuber- culoBis nurse and they left this morning for Oliver County . where they-4ill hold a series of ten clinics over the county. From there they will:.go to Billings and Hettinger counties and will spend the greater part.of the summer in the western counties. The traveling clinic has met.a need in the isolated rural com- murdties especially among the chil- drén and this year it is the plan to do Biore intensive work~along the line*of tuberculosis. op : | At The Movies Ooo See oa AT. THE CAPITOL MALL BOYS OF CITY AGOG AS CIRCUS Clown with Robbins Brot “C'mon, Skinny! Let’s get up and see the circus come in.” And Skinny will have to get up early, for the cireus—Robbins Brothers—is coming in at 5 o'clock tomorrow morning on the South Soo, and will unload in the Soo line yards, according to F. Robert Saul, advance agent for the show, here to- day. The exact place of the per- formance to be given by the circus tomorrow afternoon and night had not been tixed early today. But there will be a parade at 11 a. m., Saul said. Things have changed in the cir- cus business according to the press agent, who is in the city today. The old days of skillful crews of tent peg drivers, straining lines of. horses drawing big wagons from the trains, and the elephants boost- ing heavy trucks about have passed according tothe agent. But equal- ly interesting is the new method of unloading the circus and putting up the big tent. Here is the 1924 method of doing it: A large motor driven. spool winds and unwinds the canvas for the tents; large motor tractors haul as many as five wagons at one time, and the steam pile-driver ham- mers the stakes into the ground. The Robbins Brothers circus will show both afternoon and evening PREPARES ITS DESCENT ON BISMARCK ETH WAITE s_ circus ‘badly injured in a Hagenbeck - Wallace come back to the “big top” which is his real home. coming tomorrow.

A big parade is scheduled for 11 o'clock, There will be threet bands to furnish the music, includ- ing the famous clown band. In the parade will be many open dens of wild animals, for the circus is noted for its wild animal acts, cow- boys and cow-girls, a band of real Sioux Indians, two calliopes, _ele- phants, camels, and many other nov- el feature: The big show program opens a new, novel, and sensational spectac- ular production entitled “Cinderella in Jungle Land” in which 250 peo- ple take part. From the minute Cinderella enters in tatters as she is transformed into a charming princess by the fairy queen, until she is carried away by her royal lover, Prince Charming, one gor- geous transformation scene follows another in bewildering succession of rapid fire changes. The whole grand cast of principals, a danc- ing ballot of thirty pretty young women, and a wonderful singing chorus of 150 people are wonder- fully trained and handsomely dress- ed in oriental costumes. s The five riding Davenports, bate- back riders; Miss Kate Smith and her Russian wolf hounds, and many other features are in the show. favorites ~in the cost. There is spot on the globe which po: such an :@mosphere of romance as the South Sea Islands. For many de- , poets and painters have found their inspiration in those gems of the Pacific, with the result that the mere mention of them stirs up in one’s imagination visions of moon-bathed beaches, palms gently swayed by the swect- scented zephyrs and native girls dancing to the strains of sensuous music. PLAN FIGHT FOR CONGRESS LaFollette National Manager Announces Plan Chicago, July 8—A militant cam- paign to support congressional can- didates indorsed by the forces of Senator Robert M. LaFollette of Wisconsin with the primary effort to elect a presidential and national ticket is planned by Rep. John W. Nelson of the Third Wisconsin Dis- trict, who has opened national, head- quarters here and assumed charge of the LaFollette presidential cam- paign. “We expect to support progress- ives irrespective of parties,” he said. “We intend insofar as possible to avoid taking on ‘the burden of any state, county or legislative candi- dacy. But we are much interested in maintaining our balance of pow- er in both houses of Congress.” Selection of a vice-presidential candidate will not be settled upon until after the Democratic conven- tion, he said.

It is very hard to be lost when you are only five years old and have gone out isto the world .to find a father. He held‘the scrap of paper which was to be a talisman in his hand. He had taken that from his moth- er’s desk when she was in the other room. He knew. that this would help hjm:-to find a father such as he had always wanted. Suddenly Bobby’s legs gave! ont. He was tired ‘and’ bewildered by the rush of traffie and the: busy pedestrians. He sat down upon the curb and | rubbed his eyes with two grimy lit- tle hands, and still he could not rub the tears away. “What's the matter?” asked a big policeman, striding up to him. “Are | you lost, boy?”. Bobby handed him the piece of paper. The policeman looked at it and whistled, “Mr. Swanscott!” he ejaculated. “Saints alive! Is he your daddy?” Bobby nodded dubiously. The po- licemar. picked him up and carried him across the street to a big build- ing and spoke to. the porter. The porter took Bobby to the door of | a little room that was moving up and up. 4 Upstairs John Swanscott _ was holding a company meeting. The director: were all assembled and ready to begin < business. John Swanscott ‘wall restlessly about the room, His rt was not in the company that di He was .think- ing of the girlish wife who had left him five years before because—be- cause— Well, he had tried to find her many times. But Hilda’s pride had lent her power to evade him, and he had learned nothing. He did not know, for instance, that he was the father. But with the shrewd instinct of five years Bobby had long ago di- vined that something was the mat- ter with mother. True, he did not know that mothers ought not to cry at night, and sometimes during: the day as well; it: was only a sub- tle instinct that informed him how happy he would be, and mother, toh if he could bring -home’ a father. He had noticed particularly that. the piece of paper with the name on it was treasured, and that often mother- took it out of the desk drawer and began to «write a letter, and that she always ended by tear- ing up the paper on which she had written, and throwing the pieces into the basket. ‘ Ah, well, it was not necessary. for John Swanscott to know all this. He had'troubles enough..He had thrown himself unreservedly. into his work, an. embittered man, and not a-wery generous one, | The name of Swanscott had become feared in Wall street. There was not-one of the directors, who stood nervously about the room, who was not afraid of him, “The meeting is called, tle- men,” he said—and just then a clerk came in through the private door, “To see me!” exclaimed John Swanscott ‘incredulously. “The porter, did you say?’ Then ‘anger got the better of him. “Did you tell him I had a company meeting?” he began. And just then @ dirty little boy with a tear-stained face and grimy hands that clutched a scrap of pa- per, came toddling into the room. Bobby looked around gravely, and he stared into the face of’ each of the amused directors in turn be- fore planting himself upon his sturdy little legs in front of Swan- scott, ‘ “Well, sir, what can I do for you?” inquired Swanscott gravely, “Have you come to attend the meeting of this company?” “Yes,” answered Bobby, with equal gravity. “I want a father.” The words stung Swanscott to the quick. He glared at the little boy,- and the directors, each of whom knew the tragic story of Swanscott’s life though he did. not know they knew, tried to suppress their interest, ‘So you have come to me to find a father for you, have you?” tn- quired the president.. “What is that pon have im your hand, young man’ ‘ Bobby stretched ont his hand and offered bim the paper, with the assurance of fiye years old. Swan- scott took it ad gave an involun- tary. start. Tt was Hilda’s handwriting that he saw before his eyes. It was {mpogsible to mistake that. How many times had he not seen {t upon those jetters at home, every one of which he had read so often that he knew !¢ by heartt. « “Mother is always-crying. because I-haven’t a father,” exclaimed Bob- by. “She cried all night, and some- times she writes: things ona plece of: paper and then tears. it-up and frows. it away.
