THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1930 INSTITUTION BEGUN THREE DECADES AGO -BY BISHOP WEHRLE' i Church and Small Monastery} Were Moved From Devils | Lake in 1899 WAS MADE ABBEY IN 1904; ee I Village, Once Filled With Sod| Houses, Now Boasts 800 Residents By-REY, CUTHBERT GOEB Richardton, N. D., Dec. 5.--No ac- count of the incorporated village of Richardton would be complete with- gut some words of Assumption Abbey. The early settlers and the younger generation of Stark county are well aware of this. Visitors from different sectioris of the state who have passed through Richardton, either by rail or auto, have often asked the question: What is that complexus of buildings with the stately church, to our right or left? i The residents of the western section of North Dakota know that they are admiring and praising the work of the Right Reverend Bishop Vincent Wehrle, O. S. B., D. D., first Bishop | of Bismarck. It was his indomitable will and unflagging zeal and courage that erected those magnificent piles of brick. In 1899 he erected the first | section of the building, the present cast wing. Richardton, in the words of Zena Irma Trinka, was at that time a village with a foreign aspect | due to the sodhouses. But around the small church of 1899, and yet smaller monastery, grew up the village of Richardton. which is today a village with a population of 800 progressive and broadminded citizens. Moved From Devils Lake ‘The monastery originally founded by Bishop Wehric at Devils Lake, was transferred to Richardton. A school was soon opened for boys and candi- dates swelled the number of the com- munity. In 1904 St. Mary's Priory, as it was called, was raised to the rank of an Abbey, and the Father the first reigning abbot. Under his guidance the school grew. The small buildings were found to be inade-| quate:to house the boys and the) growing community of Benedictine monks. The new abbot then decided to erect, or rather completé, the build- ing program begun in 1899 by adding two additional wings, on the north) and south side respectively, and on the west the magnificent church which vi. Ys at the abbey so much | udmire. This work was undertaken | in 1907 and completed in 1910. In; the same year Abbot Vincent Wehrle was consecrated .as first Bishop of Bismarck. He resided at the Abbey until 1915 when he resigned to take up his residence at the newly erect- ed episcopal see of Bismarck. The} community had grown rapidly. The| Benedictine fathers, under the lead- ership of Bishop Wehrle, founded many of the parishes in North Da-! kota. They were really the pioneer | missionaries, but their crowning} achievement was the erection of St. Mary’s monastery. In their school they followed the time-tried and time-proven Benedictine educational Standards and methods. Hoernerback Is Successor In 1915 Right Reverend Placidus | Hoernerbach was elected to succeed Bishop Vincent Wehrle. In 1928 the name of St. Mary's monastery was legally changed into Assumption Ab- bey. In the same year some changes ‘were made in the buildings, such as the installation of the vacuum heat- | ing system, the renovation of certain | Parts of the buildings, etc. The Bene- dictine Fathers still conduct a school for boys. So far they have confined themselves to teaching a high school course, but they expect to add col- lege work in the fall of 1931. Not on- ly are they keeping up the traditional methods of the Benedictine order, but they have selected what is best in modern education. The staff of teachers is well qualified for the work that it intends to do in coming years. Connected with the school is also the Abbey proper. The community at the present writing numbers 3¢ mer bers; nine of the members are en- gaged in parochial work in neighbor- ing parishes. «DL a ene | Farm Facts !

East, feeling that his partner’s strength must be in hearts, returns the jack of hearts, which the de- clarer wins with the ace. South’s only hope to make an extra trick is to save his queen of diamonds, therefore he leads the ace -of clubs and a small club, West winning the second club with the king, As partner's lead of the jack of hearts’ probably showed the ten, West leads the deuce of hearts, East covers with the ten, forcing the de- clarer’s king. Declarer leads the four of clubs, West discards a diamond, East winning with the queen. East plays the king of diamonds, and then switches to the four of hearts, which West wins with the nine. West picks up the declarer’s last trump with his queen of hearts, East discarding the four of diamonds. West plays the jack of diamonds, East wins with the ace and cashes the last. trick with the king of spades. North and South have only taken three tricks. Their contract called for one heart, therefore they went down four tricks, and as they were vulnerable, this amounts to 1400 points. (Copyright, 1930, NEA Service, ia ence.

Rat Experiments Show Effects of Vitamins Fargo, N. D., Dec. 5.—To deter- human body, Esther Latake, in- structor in nutrition at North Da- kota agricultural college, is super- vising a series of experiments at the rat laboratory in the agricultural hall. , The tests, which have been in progress for the past several weeks, are conducted by giving a different type of diet to groups of rats. A list of basal foods are chosen which con- sists of a pure protein, starch, sugar, fat, a salt mixture containing all the essential minerals required for the body, and distilled water. Results gained from these experi- ments so far show that rats allowed to have both the basal diet plus milk and gteen vegetables have made the greatest gain in weight, besides be- ing in a better physical condition. Rats given only the basal food and milk are not developing .as well as those on the first diet, and are small and listless. The same is true of the animals on the basal and green veg- ‘basal food alone are small, weak and nervous, and in a poor condition physically. HAS ‘SHAKESPEREAN’ WOUND Newark, N.

According to H. EB. Rilling, state club leader, only three of the former champs have not entered livestock in the lcoming show Dec. 9 to 12 at the agricultural college—the reason is that they are no leds active men- bers of the organization. Included in the list of champion- ship exhibitors are two boys who have , repeated, John McDonald, Amenia, and Frank Sorenson, Kath- ryn. By winning twice in any one class, exhibitors are automatically barred. from competition in that class again. Nothing daunted, how- ever, both boys are showing animals in other classes. Only Market Types The show includes only market types of livestock, being divided into beef cattle, swine and sheep. The complete list of former champs is as follows: Melvin Musland, Edge- ley, and Cyril Boelke, Great Bend, both winners in 1926; John Mc- Donald, Jr., Amenia, winner in 1927 and 1928, and Norman Demesy, Wright, 1927 champion; Frank Sorenson, Kathryn, 1928 and 1929 winner; Paul Hertsgaard, Kindred, and Lucien Barnes, Fargo, cham: pionship winners in 1929, Of the three former champions who are not exhibiting fat stock at Barnes county, and Charles Measor, Cass county, are students at the agricultural college, and Glenn Olson is farming in: La Moure county. Charles Measor is a local club leader at Tower City and was selected last fall to attend a natignal leaders’ training school in Springfield, Mass. Largest Entry List The 1930 4-H club livestock show has the largest entry lst of any during the four years the show has been in existence, club officials say. This year’s entry list totals 74 pale mals from 16 counties. Livestock to be shown include Hereford, -Short- horn, and Angus beef cattle; Duroc Jersey, Chester White, Yorkshire, Poland China, Spotted Poland China and Yorkshire swine, and Shrop- shire, Hampshire and Oxford sheep.

DISCUSS $260,000 DOSE OF MEDICINE Radium, However, Will Not Be Used Up, as Only Rays Are Used Los Angeles, Dee, 5 5.—(P)—A quar- ter of a million dollar dose of medi- cine featured discussion society of North America. Dr. Douglas Quick, New York, told of applications of the four-gram rad. jum‘ pack in treatments for cancer at the Memorial hospital, New York. Four grams of radium cost upwards of $250,000. However, while each pa- tient takes the dose—by application —it is not consumed and may be used and used, for only the effects of its = rays are absorbed by the pa- tient. } The discussion was participated in by Dr. Francis Carter Wood, of Col- umbia university, selected by the so- ciety for its 1932 president. He ana- lyzed the application of gamma radia- tion to malignant growths. Dr. Wood eereeanes high hopes for developments from the new 650,000 volt experimental X-ray tube at td California Institute of Technology at Pasadena. This tube, built by Dr. Charles C. Lauritsen under adminis- tration of Dr. Robert A. Millikan, de- velops rays equivalent to $5,000,000,000 worth of radium. Pointing out that the present four- gram radium treatment packs cost $250,000 and can be used upon only one patient at a time Dr. Wood said ii new tube which gives off emana- tions to gamma ray Patients treatments which all radium produced in the world could not provide if collected for a single application.
