BARRYMORE FAMILY | FAMED IN THEATRE Ethel, Who Appears Here’ Mon- day, Represents Ninth Generation on Stage Ethel Barrymore, who will appear in “The School for Scandal” at the Bismarck auditorium Monday night, is a member of one of the most fa- mous families in the history of the theater. She was born in Philadelphia and received her education at the Con- vent of Notre Dame near the city of her birth. Of English and Irish ex- traction, her people have been con- nected with the stage for nine gen- erations. Miss Barrymore is the daughter of the late Maurice Barrymore and Drew-Barrymore, and the niece of the late John Drew and Louise Drew Mendum. It is un-; usual that she and -her brothers,) Lionel and John, should all have at- tained the distinction of stardom, as, im the history of other theatrical: families, there generally is but one outstanding member. i After be#ig graduated from the convent, Miss Barrymore made her stage debut as Julia in “The Rivals.” Her grandmother, Mrs. John Drew, played the part of Mrs. Malaprop in. this production. Following this, she appeared in “The Bauble Shop,” in which her uncle, John Drew, played the lead, in “That Imprudent Young and “Rosemary.” In 1897, cret Service” at the Adelphi theater, after which she joined Sir Henry Irving’s Lyceum company, and toured England in “The Bells.” Returning to America in 1898, she/ in support of Annie Rus- sell in peared as Stella de Gex in “His Ex- On Feb. 4, 1901, she was made star im the late Charles Frohman’s pro- |a sort of gateway to the “prehistoric “Catherine” and in 1900 ap-; MODERN MISS HORNER, SATIN A CORNER, anc) williams, q-ze ©1031.

The castle will be about 20 feet high. Grouped about the borders of the park, which will be 150 by 650 feet. in dimensions when completed, are: many specimens of petrified trees: and interesting fossil and stone for- mations, including a number of‘can- non balls.” The latter are round masses of sandstone, some of which weigh more than 5,000,pounds. They vary in diameter from three inches to three feet and some pairs are joined and are shaped like dumb-/ bells. In the collection is a variety of hardwoods and softwoods, both pet- tified and agatized, some containing crystals. of the slabs are from trees closely related to the Californie. Sequoia, according to Quammen. One of the petrified logs in the county, which has been only partly uncov- ered, measures seven feet across 38 feet from the base and four feet in width 90 feet from the base. One 80-acre tract near Lemmon, Quammen said, yielded 55,000 pounds of petrified wood for the park. ‘Workmen have gathered 215 tons of petrified wood; six tons of petri- fied bones from large prehistoric uni- mals said to be named titanothe- rium; a smaller amount of petrified | fish, snails, and other occupants of water; petrified grass ahd fossils of tree leaves; and a few tons of quartz found in both North and South Da-} kota. | These unique objects are found in the land formation which once was the basin of a salt lake covering) parts of the two Dakotas, Quammen| says. | Farmers Urged to Dry Corn Rapidly Washburn, N. D., Sept. 26—Mc-| Lean county farmers have been urged dry which they will use for seed. Norling said artificial heat may be necessary in some cases. He also urges farmers to pick out their best specimens to enter in the McLean county corn show, the Wil- ton corn show, and the annual North BANK STOCKEOLDERS ARE LABLE FOR TAX Opinion Is Drawn by Assistant| Attorney General for Dickey Treasurer Bank stock may be assessed in the name of a bank, but if the bank fails, the stockholders are lable for the tax, Charles Simon, assistant state) attorney general, ruled in an opinion furnished to H. J. Oberman, Dickey county treasurer at Ellendale. The opinion was given in reply to inquiries as to the assessment of bank stock in the case of the Farm- ers’ State bank of Fullerton, which closed June 14, 1930. The bank, in the past, had paid the taxes on the shares of stock of the bank, acting as the agent of the/ stockholders. “It has been the practice in this state,” ihe opinion said, “to have the bank stock assessed in the name of the bank for the convenience of the stockholders, but in order to have the stock in the name of the bank, the bank must signa iten request for such assessment, but if the i@nk fails, the stockholders are liable for the tax.” Oberman advised -the attorney general that stockholders of the bank) appear to be of the opinion that if en assessment is proper that the re- ceiver of the closed bank should pay such tax. This question, Simon stated, has already been passed on by the state supreme court in the case of Ward county and A. 8.
