Mr. Coolidge’s plans for inaugura- tion day was fairly well formulated. As drawn up at present he will ac- closing minutes of the congressional session, he will sign bills and then ‘will look on as Vice President Dawes administers the oath of office to Senator Curtis and adjourns the senate sine die. Shortly afterward, Mr. Coolidge will follow the custom- ary practice of proclaiming the sen- ate in extraordinary session. ; ‘This done he will proceed to the ‘east front of the capitol where Chief Justice Taft will induct Herbert | Hoover into office. Mr. Hoover's i ural address will follow and a little later, Mr. Coolidge will go di- rectly.to the Union station and en- train for Northampton.

Those against them claim that such characters in real life would not be laughed at, but would be considered &s fit subjects for the ‘booby hatch.’ “this is no doubt true, but, we must People’s Forum Baldwin, N. D. remember that even the: kings: had their jesters, to make life more en- durable. And I believe anyone who can bring laughter instead of tears to the eyes of this old world deserves com- mendation instead of condemnation. It is true the Katzenjammer Kids are always causing trouble to the Cap- tain, but I, for one, think he gets what is coming to him, and anyway the Kids usually get theirs before the “show” is over. I believe the Tribune is bringing a lot of joy into homes by its comic section, for who does not get a good Jaugh out of Andy Gump and his foolish capers?

Editor Tribune: Bismarck is a city. that we citizens can feel proud of. As a capital city, it every opportunity of becom- The paint at the right is worth $3,000,000—or it isn’t worth anything. It’s the original Leonardo da Vinci masterpiece, “La Belle Ferroniere,” says its owner, Mrs. Ubel Sir Joseph Duveen, famed art expert, above, who says it Andree Hahn, lower left, of Kansas City, who is suing for isn't. Sir Joseph's statement, published in a New York newspaper in 1920, that the painting is merely @ copy, blocked its sale to the Kansas City Art Museum. should take that attitude I do not know, for I've found it very interest- ing. No matter how much one knows of floriculture, there are always some things to be learned that will be of service, and aside from that, the knowledge of these persons can be of such great benefit to others. The “round table” ‘discussions are of vital importance and do a great deal in giving to individuals their particular kind of assistance. No matter what problem confronts us, relating to flowers and gardens, whether it be the care or planting of different growing things, we are always certain, that if we make known our wants, that we will receive assistance. ‘ The club has made it a point to gather booklets and information from some of the best sources, and that coupled with the knowledge of a number of members is always avail- able. There is absolutely no need of the novice, setting to work blindly, to attempt planting a flower garden with perhaps a great chance of fail- ure. Especially am I thinking of per- ‘| ennial planting. There are so many beautiful per- | ennials that are hardy in this section, and there are a number of things that are important to know before plant- ing them. ‘Why not take your plans to the “Garden Club,” and ask forinforma- tion that is necessary? The club will supply the information, or some mem- ber will be glad to, or else, some little booklet will be advised wherein all the needed information will be found. In the past few years Bismarck has done much to eliminate the “eyesores” that did much to spoil the appearance of our city. There are still many places that should go or be rejuven- ated. I often go about the city and pick out these places and try to vis- J ualize them after they had (mentally) been reconstructed. Often I find that the main things needed are a lot of ambition and a little paint in- side and out. The former can be supplied without monetary cost and if the former and the latter co-oper- ate, with the aid of a good brush, nothing but good will result, for no matter how the job is done, if it's clean and well covered, the effect: will be good. I wonder if there will be some who read this who will be able to do this for their own pleasure as well as for the pleasure ef others who must se; and also for the good appearance our city. ths I think, if I had the means, - would be a hobby of-mine. Turping ugly, impossible tl into- beauti- ful things or at least into ‘ slghtly things. : To achieve beauty does not always necessitate the outlay of a lot of money. Keeping yards neat and orderly, planting and tending a lawn, planting flowers, shrubs, and ‘trees, and keeping -the house. painted’ are almost all that is needed. Most of this can be supplied by the use of energy, combined with a small outlay, and houses do not have to be painted very often. One thing that I often hear is, “Well, you know I rent and therefore can not have flowers,” etc. Then there are those who say this, “Oh, yes, I dearly love flowers and only wish we could have them, but you ens,” etc. To the renters I would say wielded with a vengeance when the time comes. Let’s all cooperate and enjoy the fruits of our labors.

A. Norlin, Meno- ken; W. G. McGinley, Leith; William Staigle, Sanger; Ted Steffens, Wilton, and A. E. Paulson, Coleharbor. “We, wool growers representing th\ Missouri Slope, including Burleigh, Morton, Oliver, McLean, Grant, Stark, Emmons, Kidder, Hettinger, Slope, Dunn, and Mercer counties, in meeting assembled on February 27, in Bismarck, do hereby respectfully urge that the senate livestock com- mittee report favorably the dog tax bill as passed by the house of rep- resentatives. We further respectfully urge, in the event that the bill is re- Ported on favorably by the senate committee, that the members of the senate vote favorably on the reported dog tax bill. This afternoon Dr. Don McMshon, veterinary expert from the Agricul- tural college, gave a talk on sanita- tion and disease prevention among sheep. He said parasitic troubles were prevalent in the eastern section of the state, such as band tapeworm, and this, he said, is destructive to lambs, while draining the vitality of older sheep also.

And ves they are the duller they are Such is the report of the blond and lovely Lily Damita, who captured the time and fancy of Prince George in Hollywood, and who bases her as- sertion on experiences met on the first half of a cross-country “person- al appearance” trip. “They talk only of business,” she reports in her still faltering Eng- lish. “Imagine—five beautiful wo- men standing in a corner having to talk to themselves, while the men all stand around talking business. And when they do talk to you—what is it? It is the stock market and how business is... bah! There is no romance. “The French millionaire .. . what of him? Well, they are so few com- pared to your American rich men. And the French are the French whether they are rich or not. Detroit the Worst “No—I have: met hundreds of your American rich men. They make good money, but bad love. They do not know romance. They know busi- ness. Detroit was the worst. There were—oh so many millionaires—but what good? I would not marry one of them. It would not be amusing even to have a romance. They are all too dull. They can keep their money —poor things—they must need it “tle they do not know how to have ‘un. “It is too bad. In Detroit they gather around and say have a drink and come and sce the night life. But I do not drink—and the night life? ++. It is so-so. F “On the Pacific coast they say }+. come and sail on my yacht! And the beautiful movie girls sail on their yachts. I have sailed just so—they have yachts like a Euro- pean palace. Yet the rich men are dull, the yachts are dull—they must drink the bad gin to ‘even talk. Poor Boys Interesting “In America is the poor boy who is interesting. He knows of books and the theater and the arts and the music—yes, and he knows of the romance. He has the ideas and he knows the struggle. He does not need the money ... yet he tries to get it . and when he gets it, he gets fat and dull. It is all too bad.” Miss Damita, appearing in con- nection with her first American pic- ture, “The Rescue,” already has vis- ited half a dozen key cities in the middle west and after a stay in New York returns via St. Louis, Indian- apolis, Kansas City and way points. 30 WING FARIERS INTERESTED IN HOGS About 30 farmers attended the hog raising meeting at Wing, Tuesday afternoon. A. R. Miesen, county agent, attended from here. Mr. Gra- ham, a farmer in the Wing commun- ity, presided. Gordon Randlett, agricultural col- lege expert on hogs, gave his talk on the advantages of sanitation and on how to prevent hog diseases. on the benefits of alfalfa pastures. Mr. Miesen encountered a lot of difficulty in returning home. The wind got high and blew snow drifts in the roads forcing him to detour by way of Steele. At times his progress was like plowing. Today Mr. Randlett moved over to Turtle Lake and held a similar meet- ine there. ASSOCIATION GAINS ot NEW MEMBERS r The Association of Commerce sup- plementary membership drive had brought in 31 new members when the first day canvass closed Tuesday eve- ning. This ts a shade better than one new member per canvasser. ‘The canvassers were unable to see many of the prospects when they called at their places of business Tuesday, and the drive was continu- ing today. When all the prospects have been seen it will close.
