MURPHY Adventures of Bismarck Politi-! cian and Educator Related =| by Georgia Writer R. B. Murphy got back from At- Janta, Georgia, Friday night, where he had gone to attend the National Edu- cational association convention and to locate some watermelon, some Georgia | Feaches and the Peeples Street school. | He met the melon and peaches with- | cut any exertion on his part, but | finding the school was a real job; which he never would have dis- | charged had it not been for one of the | bright Atlanta newspapermen, Ralvh Smith, who runs a cracker jar in the | Atlanta Journal. i The Bismarck state official's ad- j ventures are best told in what Mr. | Smith wrote of them in his “Cracker- Jand.” Since then Mr. Murphy has | had a letter from Columnist Smith, | expressing regret at the North Da- kotan’s departure before Georgia could lavish all its pent-up hospital- ity on him. These are the adventures | of R. B. Murphy in the search for | that fountain of perpetual youth, the Peeples Street school, as told in the | Journal: i Apropos the convention, cne of | the visitors, Hon. R. B. Murphy, of | Bicmarek, president of the North Da- | kota Stale Board of Administration. | had a hot time and a good laugh | “looking.” as he said. “for Pecples | School." He told a funny} | story Shortly before leaving Bismarck on his long trek to Atlanta, Mr. Murphy re ed a postcard. It read: | “As sponsor for your state during the H N. E. A. Convention, Peeples Strect School welcomes you to Atlanta, Ga., June 23th.” “The card was unsigned,” said Mr. ay, “and I showed it to my son, year-old Eagle Scout. “What do you make of that, my boy,’ +. ‘Well, dad.’ quoth he, | as if somebody down there | good time, but | Murphy, being somewhat lonely and wondering if there were other North Dakotans hereabout, decided to look up his state's sponsor. He inquired at information about Peeples Sireet School. “The pretty little lady at the in- ion desk thought long and said he. “and finally told me she was cure there was such a school in Atlanta, but where, she didn't know! . » Then, I asked if there were other North Dakotans on the visitors’ register. ‘That's at the Au- ditorium, Sir, and the Auditorium is closed today,’ she answered.” So Mr. Murphy spent Sunday with- out meeting his sponsor or contacting any of the other visiting North Dako- tans, of whom there were several in the city. That was Sunday. Monday, of course—you might have known it would turn out this way—the Peeples Street School committee was on the job, and plenty of other North Da- kotans were stirred up for the erst- while lonely visitor, who declared he never had experienced more affable hospitality in his life. | Bulgaria Police Arrest 100 ‘Red’ Workmen | Sofia, Burgaria, July 9.—(®)—The | Police arrested about one hundred communist workmen who in defiance of prohibition by the authorities held @ monster mass meeting yesterday at the foot of Mount Luline near the capital.
