Editor, Tribune: The police department of Bismarck deserves the thanks of the commun- ity for the superb manner in which it handled the crowds during Bishop Wehrle's Golden Jubilee, and the citi- zens of the Capital City are to be con- gratulated for the kindness extended to outside visitors. If a single annoy- ing factor existed to mar the happy occasion it might be found in the crowded condition of the banquet hafl. Apparently six or. eight hundred peo- ple were crowded into a room capable of seating three or four hundred. The happy frame of mind of the banquet- ers, of course, concealed their true feelings. The waitresses worked under a se- vere handicap and they needed the as- sistance of the guests in passing the food down the long rows of tables. The guests entered the hall feeling the effects of a strenuous forenoon and there was a decided contraction un- der their belts, | The elaborate menu and a goodly supply of Michigan turkey soon caused an expansion of waist line and this did not add to the comfort of individ- uals who had never practiced dieting. True, the ladies were better pre-| pared to stand a selge of this kind as the modern dress expands with little difficulty, but the men were laboring under more ancient and strict rules that forbade the use of elastic bands. It was embarrassing indeed when a blushing male attempted to reach the top button of a tight-fitting trouser. Conditions were right for a series of fainting spells among the feminine diners but, true to tradition, they re-| sisted as the stage was not properly set for swooning. There were too many tottering figures with gray beards and bald heads to invite a Physical collapse. When a woman faints she is reasonably sure that the brawny arms of youth are in close Proximity, that she may be hoisted onto sturdy shoulders and carried to safety while a pair of dainty feet, shod in silver slippers, cause her ro- bust sisters a pang of envy. The above condensed statement of facts should arouse the citizens of Bismarck to the necessity of provid- ing a banquet hall capable of seating | 1,000 people. When the new capitol is erected you will need it. | J. E.
