G. Fulton, the district director, was there as one of the regional lead- ers and so were Judges A. M. Chris- tianson, chairman of the court of honor, and W. L. Nuessle, president of the Missouri valley scout organ- ization. H. K. Jensen, Morton county school superintendent, presided. as chairman of the Mandan district committee, while L. K. Thompson, principal of the school, lent a hand. A few of the winners of certificates | were unable to appear, but 35 par-| ticipants sat down to the tables. Nuessle Shows Hope ‘There was a song and speaking program before the certificates were handed over. Judge Nuessle reviewed the world- wide activities of the scouts, referring to their presence in all the South American ceremonies on the occasion of President Hoover's good-wil tour as one evidence of their international character. He then went into an analysis of the country’s crime condi- tions, employing an analogy to en- courage hope that this contempt for Jaw and right conduct will be over- come, and that such organizations as the scouts will be the remedy. For, said he, the human body creates counter-organism to fight ills of the flesh and thus partly of itself restores its normal condition of health when attacked by disease. The scouts and kindred organizations, he said, are the counter-organisms of socicty against its disease of crime. Ideals and morale, he thought, may sometimes be unsuspected because they are latent. Von Bernhardi thought the Americans were a negli- gible element in considering the world war in advance of its occurrence. In his book predicting the war and its nature, he made but one mistake: He failed to foresee that America was not alone the land of the dollar, but that it had spiritual principles as well and the will to fight for these, said the judge. So, unseen at this time, American society has within itself the counter- organisms to subdue the lawlessness of the present day, he said. The boys of this time are not any worse than those of other decades. The difference now is that there are more opportunities and ways to go wrong, ‘as society has multiplied its complex- ities, Meanwhile the Boy Scouts, by their work and activities, are among the boys of the nation what the serv- THE BISMAR CK TRIBUN: ©1929, GY WEA SERVIC.

Because of higher mcral standards, wrongs have been convert- | ed into right, he said, and that is what is making the century the most glorious in the history of the world. He cited the writing into the pro- visions of the constitution of the German republic one for education, coupled with the proviso that this education shall be in the direction of conciliation among the nations in their frictions. Then he recited the steps successively taken by North Da- kota, along with other states, in this movement for giving to juvenility its; bill of rights. All that now is re- quired is that youth shall fit in as a cog in the social machine, but also it must preserve its ability to think and act individually, the latter considera- tion being emphasized over the for- mer by the judge.

Fulton spoke to the effect that it was “all over but the shout-j} ing,” referring to the ten weeks of jtraining which was to result in the; award of the masters certificates.

AT THE MOVIES i o ELTINGE THEATRE The all talking mystery melodrama, “On Trial” remains at the Eltinge for today and Saturday. With its story told by the conversation of the principal characters, the picture is particularly interesting and unusual entertainment. Beside the notable cast, which in- cludes Pauline Frederick, Bert Lytell, Lois Wilson, Holmes Herbert, Johnny Arthur, Jason Robards, Vondell Darr, Fred Kelsey, Richard Tucker and Franklin Pangborn, over two hun- dred persons are seen in the court- room and trial scenes of “On Trial.” | “On Trial” was one of the great and enjoyed phenomenal success on tour. Elmer Rice, its author, was a law clerk whose familiarity with criminal pro- cedure made it possible for him to write this masterpiece—was made in- dependently rich by it. It was the first play to make use of the motion Picture “flash-back"—which caused a furore in the theatrical world. The manner of the stage play made it especially suited to the screen. CAPITOL THEATRE The ever-fascinating personality of Harry Carey, rugged and attractive Western star for Pathe, has never shown to greater advantage than in his latest Pathe vehicle produeed by Charles R.

The decision affirms one previously made involving joint haulage of freight by motor from Minot to Max for transportation by rail east and west of Max. In its application the motor trans- portation company said that the Soo Line had refused to advance its charges as is the usual practice among common carriers. The commission held that public convenience and necessity require that the motor and rail carriers co- operate in furnishing service to the public. The motor freight line offers a@ service to Fargo distributors which is available in no other way, the com- mission held, and joint services of the railroad and motor line are an advantage to points on the Soo Line, which are enabled thereby to obtain better service from Fargo distribut- ing houses. The railroad attacked the jurisdic- tion of the railroad board to rule on the case, contending that the motor company is not a common carrier and that, in effect, it was asking the railroad board to establish joint rates for a motor freight and railroad line. The power of the railroad board to restricted by law to two or more rail- ‘way companies operating connecting lines. Ruling against the contention of ithe railroad, the railroad board held |that the request of the motor trans- portation company was not an ap- plication for a joint rate, since it does not publish joint motor and rail rates but only its own rates to destinations served by it. It also held that both the motor company and the railroad are joint carriers under the meaning of the North Dakota law and that the board has full jurisdiction over them with regard to rates charges, services and practices in intrastate ship- ments, The board's order also requires the motor freight company to advance to the Soo Line, charges for freight de- — to it by the Soo Line at Valley City.

Bonham of the Rangers to El Paso to ferret out and capture @ gang of clever counterfeiters who have been traced to that city. On the way he rescues a New York girl, Bev- erly Dix, from a precarious auto- wreck, and when he takes her to the Savoy Hotel in El Paso finds her father knows Earl Hanway and Lefty ‘Waterman, two gentlemen who have been throwing their money to the winds—literally as if they had been making it.

He is lured away from her by PAMELA JUDSON, who tells him that Mildred is try- ing to marry her brother, HAR- OLD, for his moncy. Harold loves Mildred but he is deadly in fear of a gambler, HUCK CONNOR, who has acheck which he forged. Huck is infatuated with Pamela, who plays with him to make Ste- phen jealous. Believing that Mildred is a cheap little fortune hunter, Ste- phen permits Pamela to an- nounce their engagement when she tells him that is the only way she can break with Huck. In- furiated, Huck frames Stephen for the theft of an auto and plants evidence in his room which causes his arrest. Pamela breaks the cn- gagement, but Mildred goes to sce him in jail and promises help. Mildred had got a confession from Harold once that Huck was the cause of his fear and that he was going to “get Armitage” to keep him from marrying Pamela. With this as a clue after Ste- phen’s arrest, Mildred determines to force Harold to reveal what he knows about Huck. Meanwhile, when Huck makes new demands on Harold, he defies him and tries to fight. Huck hurls the boy through an open window to death below. He makes a get- away and the death is called ac- cidental. Duke Broggan warns Huck that the police are sus- picious. Mildred tells Stephen what Harold had told her—but they have no proof and things seem hopeless. eek NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXXIV Mildred was specchless with excite- ment. She watched Stephen with the parted lips and wide-open eyes of a person utterly overcome. He took a few more strides up and down and then paused again to go on with his disclosures about Huck Connor. “It was out in Indiana,” he said; “in my home town. You know I worked for a big distributing agency out there. Well, I had some half- baked ideas to get out of my system.” He looked at Mildred sheepishly, but she nodded sympathetically. He went on then to tell her about the cars that had been stolen from his firm. “But I'll bet your idea helped to sell a lot more,” Mildred declared de- “I can see how it would work. A man buys a car and just be- cause it’s his it’s one of the best. By the time he'd driven one of your cars a few miles all by himself he thought he owned it. I think it was a mar- velous idea, Stephen.” Stephen puffed his chest a bit. “Well,” he said with a trifle of re- ductance, “I thought it was pretty good, myself, and it worked too, until Connor and his gang...” “Huck!” “He's a crook all right, Mildred. We didn't suspect him then, but I'm wise now. A week or two before the big coup was pulled off he dropped in to look at our cars and someone told him about our honor system. He said he'd prefer a demonstrator, and a man went along with him. He didn’t buy and I heard the salesman grous- ing about it. I only got a couple of casual looks at him myself. That's why I didn't recognize him when I saw him here in New York.” as the screen has seen in this type of motion picture in a long time. Reservation to Get School and Hospital Rolla, N.

But we may get it, and when we do I'd like to be the one to go after him.” “If you weren't too stubborn to ask your family to bail you out of here you could do some detective work yourself,” Mildred said trickily. “No.” Stephen was resolute. “I'm afraid my mother couldn’t stand the shock.” Mildred sighed, and got up to go. “I'm late,” she said, glancing an: iously at her wrist watch, Back at the office she showed a more cheerful countenance than they’d seen her wear for some time. But as the days passed and Stephen's lawyer made no progress in his effort to tie Huck up with the automobile thefts, her lowness of spirit returned. Stephen tried to pretend that there was yet a great deal of hope, but Mildred knew that he was discour- aged. Nothing had been learned of Huck except that he had been a heavy spender. Huck never had mixed his lowbrow Mildred sible for Stephen's lawyer to have him shadowed, nothing cguld be learned of his connection with Duke Broggan and Ras Poberlin. This time she did not risk a re- buff. She entered the hotel at noon and went up to Pamela's rooms with- out having herself announced.

Mildred had planned her attack with that object in view. She turned to the maid who had followed her to the connecting door then back to Pamela. “Dismiss her,” she said curtly, “un- less you want the whole place to know what I've got to say to you.” Pamela waved a hand to the maid and told her to close the «oor and wait in the next room. She was more than a little afraid of Mildred’s de- termined manner. “Do you know why Stephen is in jail?” Mildred began at once. Pamela shrugged. “Because he’s a thief, I presume,” she said sneeringly. “You know he isn't,” Mildred charged. He's there because Huck Connor wanted him put out of the way.” “Really?” Pamela drawled, but her interest was now definitely aroused. you,” Mildred went on in a rush. “Your conclusions are interesting but insolent,” Pamela remarked, and daintily picked up a bit of toast. “Oh, you fool!” Mildred cried in exasperation. “Did you honestly be- lieve that you could play fast and loose with a man like Huck Connor?” “Now see here,” Pamela snapped, “you can cut the rough stuff or get out.” “If the truth hurts I can't help it,” Mildred retorted, “but I didn’t come here to quarrel with you. I want you to help Stephen.” “Oh, you want me to help Stephen,” Pamela mocked. “Because you're the only one who can,” Mildred broke in before she could say anything more. “If you hadn't flirted with Huck Connor Stephen wouldn't be in jail and I want to tell you that unless he gets out pretty soon you're going to find yourself in trouble.” * * * “Are you threatening me?” Pamela asked incredulously. “No. Only warning you. Stephen knows that Huck is a thief and I'm sure that he hasn’t gone so far to stop now. He wants you, Pamela, and if I were you I'd want a man like Stephen around to protect me.” “Aren't you clever?” Pamela laughed. Miidred bit her lip. She was re- luctant to speak of Harold to Pamela. Still if she could not get to Mr. Jud- “I’m not clever, Pamela,” she said quietly, “but I believe that Huck is a dangerous man. A man who would not hesitate to do murder if it suited his purpose.” She was totally unprepared for the effect of her words upon Pamela. The girl's face blanched instantly and Mil- dred could see the shiver that ran over her slim body. She saw, too, that Pamela's eyes were rimmed with dark circles and that her lips looked Pinched. She was staring in surprise when Pamela cried out suddenly: “Murder, oh, my God!” and buried her face in her hands.
