Quain, by means of colored lantern slides and a talk on the ancient land of the Pharaohs. C. W. McDonnell, of the railroad | commission, brought something more modern to the minds of the luncheon participants, in a talk explaining the meeting here of the Northwest Ship- pers Advisory board, next Tuesday. Judge L. E. Birdzell, who presided in the absence of President Worth Lumry, had Eric Thorberg give a brief talk on the golf tournament and in- troduce Paul T. Cook, Bismarck's golf Prodigy. Cook was highly praised for his fine playing form and Judge Birdzell said Bismarck depended on him to bring the state championship here. Clubs To Sponsor Shippers Commissioner McDonnell said the luncheon next Tuesday at the Pat-/| terson hotel, in connection with the regional advisory board meeting, had been put in the hands of the service | clubs of the city and that they also; were to take charge of the program. | He hoped that the clubs would make a hit of the occasion, as it had been difficult to get the board meetings away from Minnesota and Fargo and { Grand Forks. One meeting was held | at Valley City and that was so much better than any ever held at the Twin Cities that the opposition was broken down, nevertheless the Minnesotans ‘were reluctant to come as far as Bis- | marck. The Northern Pacific finally | consented to run a special train here. | It is now up to Bismarck to convince ; the visitors that the selection of this city was justifiable, he said. The regional board was organized in 1923. Since then 13 similar boards have been organized and the prob- lems of shippers are being solved by! these, while formerly there was con- | siderable chaos when it came to crop | moving time in the northwest. Com- missioner McDonnell said 136 railway men had attended the meeting held at Aberdeen in April. He urged that all business men here who can drop in on the meetings at the auditorium and thus show the interest of the city in the board and its work. Club Studies Egypt | Dr. Quain said he would show a/ panorama of the most ancient and} most modern life existing side by side in the land of the world’s old reli- gions, where the natives still plow ‘with a crooked root and camels, don- keys and water buffalos’ backs fur- nish freight transportation facilities. ‘Where modern stores and other buildings, with electricity are offset ty slime, mud and dirt hovels and hygiene is ignored. A land of tra- choma, 60 per cent of the people sore- | eyed, and of minarets and of faith- | ful praying Mohammedans. | Then the doctor turned on a series of pictures of ruins, as Luxor and Memphis, the Sphinx and the oldest pyramid, all seen by him in his Egyptian tour, in shore trips from, a Nile stern-wheel steamer with all) Modern accommodations. Guests of the day included Dr. F. C. Constans and Dr. Waldschmidt. Perry Returns Home From Buying Trip and Brings Kin on Visit W. E.

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, JULY 16 1929 of Cincinnati, O., July 15.—The weath- er-worn set of elk’s antlers that dec- orate the front of the pilot house on the river steamer Chris Greene are about to become the prize in another exciting river race—a race in which a woman may pilot one of the con- tending vessels. A year ago these elk horns were worn proudly by the steamer Betsy | ann. . Then the Betsy Ann, skippered by the youthful Captain Frederick Way, raced the Chris Greene, whose skipper bears the same name as the boat—Chris Greene. The Greenes won—and ever since Captain Way has dreamed of getting the trophy back. There'll be a preliminary heat, though, in which the Betsy Ann will race the steamer Tom Greene, sister ship of the Chris Greene. The two boats will run from the Cincinnati whariboat to the New Richmond dam, a distance of 25 miles, and the Betsy Ann won't get to race the Christ Greene unless she beats the Tom Greene. Mrs. Mary B. Greene, widow of Captain Gordon .Greene, founder of the Greene line of steamships, is the only licensed woman river pilot in the country, and she is prepared to pilot the steamers. that bear her sons’ names. A short time ago a friend of Cap- tain Way gave him a new set of elk's antlers—symbol, all up and down the river, of speed. But Captain Way, recalling his defeat of last year, doesn't think he ought to put them up unless he can beat the Greene boats. He is confident, too, that he can do it. “In our race last year we got off to a bad start, as our pumps failed to function properly,” he says. “By the time this difficulty had been over- come the Christ Greene had taken the lead. But this year it'll be different.” Captain Mary B. Greene, said to be the only womn river pilot, is shown above. In the center is Captain Fred Way of the Betsy Ann, and at the right is Captain Tom Greene of the steamer Tom Greene. The other pic- ture shows the exciting race last year. Firemen Smother Fire Due Sparks in Grass On West Edge of City The fire department was called to the western edge of the city at 1:30, this afternoon, to fight a prairie fire started apparently by sparks from a locotaotive. The firemen easily ex- tinquished the blaze by beating it with sacks and no water was thrown. The tract burned over is near the old pumping station, beyond the swim- ming pool section. | When a 21,000-Barrel Tank Burns | Captain Mary Greene and Her Boat | Me a ein N s 4 River Steamer in NEW GERMAN LINER TRIES FOR RECORD Bremerhaven, Germany, July 16.— (#\—The pride of Germany's trans- atlantic passenger fleet, the New North German Lloyd liner Bremen, of 49,864 tons gross register, left port today at 5 p. m., (ll a. m, E. §. T.) on her maiden voyage to New York, with her officers secretly bent on making a record Atlantic crossing. Officials of the North German Lioyd line, with eyes twinkling, would not admit that the Bremen would st- tempt anything like a race against time on her first voyage. They said they would be quite content if the new liner could be relied on to make the passage from the channel ports to New York with regularity in a little more than five days. The big liner was given a royal send off. She is a four propellor, tur- bine ship, and is the last word of German design in luxury, comfort, and safety. President Von Hinden- burg himself christened her a year ago. In the words of J. C. Stimming, a director of the North German Lloyd, the Bremen “swims like a fish.” Family Play Hour Keeps Youth Home New York.—(?)—Even the family flapper will give up a dance for a family picnic or a night of games and stories at home, says J. W. Faust, chairman of the recreation committee of the National Parents and Teachers’ association. “If parents want to keep their chil- dren away from the questionable dis- tractions of this alleged ‘flaming youth’ era they must inaugurate fam- ily play hours in the home,” he says. “I've seen a typical flapper pass up a Party to play with children on a neighborhood playground. She said she was afzaid she would miss some fun at home if che went to the party. at is what people demand to- day—joy of life and fun. If parents will take time to play with their chil- dren they need not worry about them staying away from.home. Each fam- ily should budget its time as it does its money and set aside a general play hour at least onze a week.” Pennsyivania Second In Number of Tickets Philadelphia.—()}—A , “speculative” map of America would show Pennsyl- vania second, after New York, in the number of stock and bond tickers in operation. More than 500 stock tickers are in the state, and 28 bond tickers, based on exchange records, The total number of stock tickers in 37 states is approaching 8,000. At the end of 1928 more than 4,560 of these were in New York. Illinois is third, New Jersey fourth, California fifth, Massachusetts sixth, Chio sev- PRESIDENT DELAYED IN SELECTING A MAN FOR FEDERAL BOA Disagreement Among Farm Or- ganizations as to Best Plan of Wheat Aid Washington, July 16.—(#)—The se- lection of a representative of the wheat growing industry for the fed- eral farm board may require from two to three weeks more study of available appointees by President Hoover. The president is being delayed in the selection of this member by a dif- ference of opinion among the coop- erative grain associations, but is hopeful that he will finally find a man acceptable to all. Meanwhile, with several members who have had experience in grain marketing, President Hoover feels the board is capable of going ahead with its preliminary program. The disagreement among the wheat men lies between those who are in- terested in organized wheat pools, one important form of cooperative farming, and a second group, itself divided into two or three categories, which are allied with farmer-owned and controlled elevators. Realizing the importance of the se- lection of a wheat spokesman and the importance of the wheat crop with relation to the entire farm problem, Mr. Hoover is proceeding cautiously in selecting an appointee. He is anx- ious that the wheat factions compose their differences and settle upon a man acceptable to all.
