Russell Reid, superintendent of the State Historical society, was the only speaker on the program, which was arranged by Miss Marie Huber as chairman, Mrs. John A. Larson and Reid localized his talk, telling of Indian settlements in and neer the park site in the early days. A group of Bismarck high school graduates sang several numbers and other entertainment consisting of dances, piano selections, songs and readings was given by Winnie Lou Halverson, George Francis Will, Leo Kalloran, Lincoln and Fort Rice town- ship children, Rosemary and Ann Louise Selvig, Rita Fortune and Peggy Hceman, Accompanists were Mrs. H.

Milan; Ward, president of the association, was in general charge of the gather- ing, which broke up about 6:30 0’ as | ‘You’ve Got to to Like | It’ Is Reno’s Stand | pees “You don’t like it ; eh? you've got to like it.” Such was Milo Reno's reaction to the chilly silence which greeted his attack upon President Roose- velt, Secretary cf Agriculture Wallace and Senator Gerald P. Nye during a political speech Sunday night at the World War Memorial building. The talk was broadcast. Billed as a campaign speech for William Langer, Reno spent little time singing the praises of that candidate. His chief interest, ad- mitted at the outset, was to in- form the people how they had been “betrayed” by Roosevelt and Wallace, particularly in the oper- ation of the corn-hog program of the Agricultural Adjustment Ad- ministration. As he barged along Reno must have noted the coolness of the au- dience, for his “you've got to like it” was voiced in an apparent ef- fort to hold attention. The attack on Roosevelt was based on his alleged failure to live up to campaign promises to the farmer; that on Wallace because of the administration of the corn- hog program. Nye was accused of being “for Hoover when Hoo- ver was president and for Roose- velt when Roosevelt is presicent.” Reno, president of the National Farmers Holiday Assoeiation, was an aspirant for secretary of agri- culture and turned against the administration shortly after Wal- lace was appointed. Regarding Langer, he said the candidate represented the hopes of farmers, “not only in North Dakota but in a large part of the nation.” 2,000 SEE CYCLE CLIMB Valley City, N.

Jones Atlanta, June 25.—(?)—Death has played four strange tricks on Julian J. Jones. The latest adventure was when a bolt of lightning fell in Jones lap— and then rolled off on the floor of his car. Jones has been struck by a car— and has landed safely on top of its hood. He has lived through a terrific storm in Bacon county, Ga., and once he almost touched a diamond back rattlesnake before seeing he was in error. The lightning that chose to light in Jones’ lap tore bark off a nearby tree to a height of thirty feet. From the Toot of the tree the lightning dug a little trench across the road to a rear wheel of Jones’ car, leaped to the back window, smashed the glass and fell in his lap. “It seemed to hesitate an instant, then hopped down to the barrel of a shotgun lying at my feet,” he said. I never felt any shock from the light- His only injury was @ gashed cheek, cut by the glass of the.car window. ASTOR III GETS LICENSE Providence, R.
