GRAFTON WOMAN IS pare THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER T, 1982 PRINCIPAL SPEAKER AT STATE SESSION i Telis of Experiences in China At Wednesday Meeting of State Federation Devils Lake, N. D., Sept. 7.—An ad- dress by Mrs. Grant 8, Hager, Graf-| ton, entitled “Up the China Coast,” was the highlight of the program which marked the formal opening of the 36th annual convention of the North Dakota Federation of Women’s Clubs at the Presbyterian church here Tuesday evening. | Mrs, Albert E. Jones, Lisbon, fed- eration president, presided, assisted by Mrs. J. J. Kehoe, Cando, president | of the second district, and by Mrs. W. C. Taylor, LaMoure, federation di-| rector. Clubwomen were welcomed by Mayor A,.V. Haig, De Lake, by Mrs. J. J. Kehoe, as president of the hostess district, and by Mrs.-E. O. Greenleaf, Devils Lake, in behalf of the clubs of the city. Mrs. John Knauf, Jamestown, federation vice president, responded and Mrs. Jones extended greetings. In reporting activities of the de- partment of fine arts, Mrs. R. A. Thomson, Lisbon, rman, called } attention to exten projects car- ried on with the assistance of the department. These included the Pio- neer Mother project, the plan for beautifying yards and civic centers, ; the scrap book cover design contest among school children, and commu- | nity festivals. Notable among the| many festivals staged by clubs throughout the state was that pre- sented by the Harvey Sorosis club, which won the General Federation Department of Fine Arts prize of $15 for community service, Mrs. Thomson said. The award was presented to the Harvey club at the close of the program. New Libraries Organized Excellent work in organizing new libraries and increasing the circula- tion of others and greater interest in choral work, pageants, and musical Programs were carried out under the divisions of literature and music, Mrs. Thomson's report showed. Mrs. Hager's lecture was an excerpt of her experiences in China on a re- cent trip around the world and was! enlivened by xccounts of personal contacts and lucky accidents which enabled her to see among other things off the beaten tourist path: the in- terior of a Chinese home in Amoy; shops in Shanghai's Pig Alley; and a performance in Mei Lang Fang’s the-| ater in Peking. | Prefacing her travelogue with an estimate of the cosmopolitanism of the Chinese and a brief resume of} chaotic conditions as they exist in China today, Mrs. Hager took her au- dience by rickshaw and motor through the treaty ports of Hong- kong, Amoy and Shanghai to Peking. Speaking of her first impressions in Hongkong, which she described as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, she said: “I awoke in Hongkong “in-a mist that was almost rain. The orange- colored sail of a passing junk ob- structed the view from the port-hole but when it had passed I saw a pic- ture I shall never forget. The ship was docked at Kowloon on the main- land. Across a strip of fog-colored water dotted with bright eastern sails rose a glorious mountain peak, clean nd green, as though it had been freshly washed in the ‘little rain of China.’ 4 Many Live on Boats “But it was the river life that grip- ped me. Huddled so closely together that one could almost jump from deck to deck were thousands of man-pow- ered junks and tiny sampans. As I looked down among them it seemed unbelievable that such tiny boats with barrtel-like roofs and a bit of matting or sail cloth hung up for a doorway could be the homes of thousands of Chinese.” The stream of human life in China flows swiftly by land as well as on water and in the varied system of transportation, coolies play an im- portant part, the speaker showed. “It was not unusual,” she recalled, “to see coolies harnessed to carts in four-man teams, straining at loads of brick, They trundied wheelbarrows, they bent double under loads of bam- boo, Gaunt, hungry-looking, their faces streaked with grime and sweat, their arms and legs bulging with knotted muscles, they plodded along the pleasant roads of Shanghai, a Spectacle of human misery as old as the East itself.” She spoke of the exquisite treasure to be found in the little shops along Pig Alley and recalled a journey through one of Amoy’s narrow wind- ing streets. Evidences of Fighting Crossing the treeless plains of northern China, there were evidences of recent fighting—smoking buildings, broken farm walls, trampled fields. The previous day there had been a skirmish between some bandits and Nationalist troops. She drew a com- Parison between the Chinese of the south and north, showing how they differ in color, in temperament, dress and manners. Mrs. Hager described the approach to Peking as one of the most im- ive sights in the Orient. The miles of earth-colored walls with their watch towers, gate houses and bastions suggest an impenetrable fortress against the assaults of time, though Peking itself is crumbling to Tuin, she said. Grass is growing on the tiled roofs in the Forbidden City the carved and painted timbers the palaces and throne hall are to the elements. “Although shorn of her grandeur, hher palaces looted, her art treasures in the museums of the western ag | all sections. a °: Weather Report J “ FORECASTS For Bismarck and vicinity: Partly CLOUDY. cloudy tonight and Thursday; warmer tonight.

PHYSICIST BEGINS COSMIC RAY STUDY IN CANADIAN WILDS Millikan Makes Initial Tests On Expedition Which Will Cover 8,000 Miles The Pas, Man., Sept. 7.—()—Dr. Robert A. Millikan, America’s fore- most student of cosmic radiation, ac- companied by two assistants, Dr. I. |B. Bow and Dr. H. Victor Meher. |Pasadena, Calif., Institute of Tech- nology, arrived Tuesday. | The noted physicist will conduct the first Canadian observations to be Pacific coast region while somewhat | made in an 8,000 mile cosmic-ray re- search expedition. With the cooperation of the Royal ;Canadian Air force, which is placing Millikan will make a series of flights in widely different latitudes. He be- lieves sounding balloons should fur- nish the best evidence attainable as to the earth’s magnetic field upon cosmic rays. He recently completed tests in Southern California where army pilots carried his highly sensitive self-recording electroscopes to alti- tudes around 23,000 feet. Much use- ful data is expected from these ex- periments. The flights will be con- ducted over a period of three days. Given favorable weather, Dr. Millikan will return south over the week-end. FLYING OFFICER FAILS TO RETURN TO BASE Cormorant Lake, Man., Sept. 7.—(#) g|—Flving Officer R. C. Gordon, com- mander of the Royal Canadian Air force station here, who Tuesday aft- ernoon took off to fly four miles above the earth carrying instruments of Dr. Robert A, Millikan’s scentific party, had failed to return early Tuesday. Leaving the air base at 1:45 p. m, he was expected back before 6 p. m., but had failed to return nearly two Qther aviators said he might have landed on some other lake, out of gasoline. He carried no food supplies. His instructions were to climb to 14,300 feet and fly at that elevation for about an hour, and then try to reach the “ceiling” for his plane, which is about 25,000 feet. The instruments Le carried were to be used to take observations on the cosmic ray, which Dr. Millikan’s ex- pedition is studying.

Curley of Boston fired the opening gun of Governor Franklin D. Roose- velt’s presidential campaign in the northwest Tuesday night with a denunciation of President Hoover, an attack on the expulsion of the bonus- army and demands for shorter hours and jobs at “living wages” for work- ing people as the means to the end of the depression. Mayor Curley, who is on a Roose- velt campaign advance swing across the northwest states, assailed Presi- dent Hoover as “a man seeking re- election as president who had failed to give the country leadership.” He praised Governor Roosevelt for his “courage, progressive thought and a record in office as one who made farming in New York a profitable enterprise instead of a losing one.” Democrats Plan Rally Fargo, Sept. 7.—(#)—H.
