R PAGETWO - Steele Makes Community Event of Lions Charter Night Celebration’. | SIDE GLANCES - - - - | FOUR CITIES JOIN IN INSTITUTION OF ~NEW SERVICE CLUB Bismarck, Linton, Fessenden Send Delegations to Big Induction Mecting <a | TURKEY DINNER IS SERVED | High School Band Takes Part in Program of Song, Talks and Vaudeville Skits Stecle made almost a community affair out of the charter night of the new Lions club there, when Dr. F. B. Strauss and a delegation of about 30 Bismarck den members delivered the Official certificate of the organiza- tion’s title to Lion existence Thursday night. Delegations of about ten cach were present from the Fessenden and Lin- ton clubs, and the high school band of Steele took part in the ceremonies, while a big turkey feast was served in the dining room of the Knights of Pythias hall, where the exercises took place. There was a program of music, stage dances and vaudeville, in ad- dition to the speaking upstairs in the lodge room, where the institution took Place. The only fun at the dinner was 8 riot of fining on facetious pretenses, to break in the local tail twister, Peter Dalenberg, in collecting, the collection of thin dimes being presented to the Steele club treasury, and a Sis Hop- kins number staged by William Doty, to the merriment of all. * The new club starts with 26 mem- bers and is, in part, a development of the community organization started there earlier. Christy Matheis was in- ducted into office as the first presi- dent and presided at the exercises in the lodge hall. The organization gets a good secretarial start in having B. G. McElroy, the Stecle publisher. fill- ing that important role in its affairs. High School Band a Hit The Bismarck Lions assembled at the Grand Pacific here and at 5:30 left for Steele. There the first feature of the program was the turkey dinner, which was almost ready to serve when the visitors arrived. At the openin, of the dinner, a lion drawing made by Dr. J. A. Pres- cott was unveiled. Two telegrams were read, from Morten Newcomb, district governor, and from the in- ternational secretary, Melvin Jones. The lodge room stage was occupied by the high school band when the “Don't you think we'd better call your uncle up before we have dinner?” Crane, Jack Fleck and William Doty put on a bit of blackface vaudeville, @ mock colored wedding. F. E. McCurdy spoke on Lionism, giving instances of what service meant, such as the efforts of the New Salem, Mandan, Hebron and Glen Ullin clubs to put on a bond issue campaign in Morton county in behalf of better roads. He emphasized the element of unselfishness and cited the work of the Bismarck club in cleaning up, in scout support, in Christmas entertainment for the boys and girls of the city and the partici- pation of the organization with other service clubs in the campaign for a county veterans memorial building. A. L. Kadlec, Gerald Prescott and Hans J. Lee put on a piano, violin and cornet trio with the Stephanie gavotte and Alita as selections, and Gerald Prescott added a cornet solo. ‘The ritualistic induction of the club was made by Dr. C. D. Dursema and Dr. F. B. Strauss, as deputy governor of the district, deliverec. the charter, which was formally accepted by Christy Matheis, as vresident of the Lions filed in, and a little later the assembly was given a pleasant sur- prise when the boys and girls put on musical numbers under the conduc- torship of Dr. J. A. Prescott. The doctor is a big musical influence in the Steele community and he has the band trained to a finish that would win the applause of John Philip Sousa. There was further evidence of the doctor's praiseworthy musical activity in glee club numbers and solo selec- tions, in which Hans J. Lee, the county superintendent of schools, aided and abetted. With a song salute to the flag, “America,” leading off, the program started. The audience sang some song numbers from the sheet prepared for the Minot convention, and Christy Matheis spoke the welcome address, as president of the new club. Club Is Instituted Peter Dalenberg and Dr. Prescott put on a droll song number, down as @ quartet. As Fred Peterson explained afterward, they sang twice and thus their two duets became a quartet. irs, zh school band gave two se- js, one featured by imitation lion roars, while Mary Katheryn Tay- lor of Steele gave a black bottom solo dance in black-face makeup.

Many Make Talks ‘The program came to its close with two selections by the boys glee club of the high school, a southern lullaby and a minstrel song, and the singing of another verse of “America” as the closing number. The greeting speeches were given before the boys sang. Dr. W. C. Wol- verton, president of the Linton club, and Harry Lynn, spoke for their com- munity; G. L. Hope, past president, for the Fessenden club; David Ship- ley, of Bismarck, on the trip to the district convention at Minot, May 22- 24; Fred Peterson delivered some of his famous extemporized skits, which kept the audience tittering and laugh- ing in gales; Peter Dalenberg spoke of the future Steele Lions expected; and William S, Ayers spoke on the pleasant relations between Bismarck and Steele as communities, frater- nally and in sport. The exercises concluded along toward midnight. {AT THE MOVIES i ao ELTINGE THEATRE “Redskin” featuring Richard Dix at the Eltinge today and Saturday is an unusual picture being photographed for over two-thirds of its length in natural colors which bring out the natural beauties of the great south: west. In addition to the color fea. OUT OUR WAY SeveRAL OF \W VYouR DIVIDEND CHECKS CAME SB2BSSSszssasegsa In TO DAYS MAIL, THERES ture, a special music score and sound effects add to the appeal, “Redskin” is the arama of a race of people, clinging to old traditions yet seeking to adapt themselves to the new. It is the struggle of youth against the caution of age; of youth seeking release from the chains of tribal custom. It is the romance of a boy and a girl of rival tribes, separat- ed by generations of ill-feeling be- tween their ancestors, who learn to love and rise above the restrictions of their environment. Richard Dix plays the leading role, with beautiful Gladys Belmont, a new-comer to leading parts, opposite him. Dix has a dramatic role and the picture is a perfect vehicle for him. Hundreds of Indians appear in the picture and some of them play small parts. The cast contains many well known names such as that of Tully Marshall. The color effects are marvelously real and beautiful. The scenic back- grounds are inspiring and the grip- ping di a is well conceived and par- ticularly well acted. It is a new epic of the American screen. The elaborate ceremonials of the Indians are made more realistic by the accompanying score of true In- jdian music, chanted by a mixed chorus of men and women. The Par- amount orchestra of 75 pieces carries the melody of the theme song, “Red- skin,” throughout. CAPITOL THEATRE The first talking picture to launch specially composed musical song hits for the screen, just as they are launched to fame in stage musical comedies, opens at the Capitol Thea- tre Monday when “The Broadway Melody,” Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's spectacular aill-talking, all-singing, all-dancing romance has its first showing in Bismarck. The new picture, in which gor- geous stage spectacles, ballets and song ensembles are interspersed with a vivid drama of life among the show folk behind the scenes, has special song hits, including “Broadway Mele ody,” “The Love Boat,” “You Were Meant for Me,” “The Wedding of the Painted Doll” and others specially concocted for the play by Arthur | Freed and Nacio Herb Brown, cele- brated Dance.” composers of “The Doll TARIFF AMENDMENT URGED St. Paul, May 10.—()—Amendment of the tariff bill in congress to “make it meet more adequately the needs of agriculture” was urged by Governor Christianson in a telegram to Speak- er Longworth of the national house of representatives, THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE in love with STEPHEN ARMI- TAGE, who is lured away trom her by PAMELA JUDSON when she tells him that Mildred is try- ing to marry her brother, HAR- OLD, for his money. Harold fears HUCK CONNOR, who holds a check which he forged. Huck is infatuated with Pamela, who plays him to make Stephen jeal- ous. When Pamela maneuvers~ Stephen into an engagement, Huck frames him for the theft of an auto and causes his arrest. Pamela breaks the engagement, but Mildred goes to see him in and promises help. Harold had once told her he feared Huck and that he had threatened to get rid of Stephen to keep him from marrying Pamela. Mildred determines to force Harold to help her and is shocked to hear of his death— apparently accidental. She tells Stephen her suspicions, but they have no proof and it seems hope- Tess. In desperation, Mildred goes to MR. JUDSON, who takes her to headquarters. to tell her story. Judson puts up bail for Stephen's release and Pamela begs his for- giveness. A lawyer and detective escort Stephen away from the jail and they soon realize their taxi is being followed. At a congested corner the detective is shot at as the cars pass. He escapes with a seratch as his answering shot had penetrated the thug’s wrist and caused him to drop his gun—sav- ing the bullet meant for Stephen. The thug makes a getaway and they learn he was driving a stolen car, e* * NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XL “It’s a common trick,” Frean ex- | father. plained. “The owner allows his car |her father's forbidding frown. to be stolen; then it’s abandoned and he gets it back with no responsibility for anything that happens after he reports that it’s out of his posses- sion. But of course he delays making the report until the car has served its purpose.” “And the police have too little time to find it, I see,” Oerndorf re- marked. “We'll have the owner brought in,” Frean said and turned to Stephen. “Better come along to headquarters and have a talk,” he added quietly. Stephen shook his head. “Not un- til I've seen Mr. Judson,” he replied. “All right, buddy, but you know this ‘stolen’ car business means there's an organization after you.” Stephen showed a quickened in- terest. “If the owner of that taxi really is in on this thing then hold him,” he exclaimed earnestly. “What for?” Frean asked. “I'll tell you after I've seen Mr. Judson,” Stephen promised. “If you see him,” Frean returned. “Don't be a fool, young man. Some- body’s out to get you good and plenty.” Stephen's lips set in a stubborn line. “They'll have to take time to cook up something new,” he said, con- | dreai vinced that he was safe for the time being. “You get that taxi owner and maybe you'll have someone who can tell you where Huck Connor is.” “This Connor . . .” Oerndorf be- gan. “He's the man Mr. Judson will give his right arm to find after I've told him what I know.” Stephen declared. “Come on, let's go. see Oerndorf gave the driver orders to proceed to the hotel. “Go after your man,” mn said to Frean, and the latter stepped off the running board of the car where he had stood talking through the window.

Had she gone to the police with her story her life would have been in danger.” Mr. Judson glared at him. “Is it your opinion,” he said, “that fear of such danger would prevent Miss Law- rence from doing her duty?” Stephen glared back at him. “Cer- tainly not,” he answered readily. “I induced her not to go to the police; told her they couldn’t act on her un- supported word.” . . “She came to me,” he said more quietly. at once to Inspector Markeson.
