‘ws u Woman “Who Played Played Man's Game on Frontier During ‘Pioneer Days, Dies | ———— Beach, N. D., 11.—()—Deat has ended the oer ‘Dakota’s most Lydia Richards, who aided in founds ‘ing the city of Beach, nator of her death at the home of received’ here, wan tober Lorian mother, She was 72 years The story of her life is the history of Beach itself, and she took an im- portant part in on Hees and civic affairs of western North Dakota. She was born in Waseca, Minn., where her father was engaged in selling land. After receiving her grade and high school education there, she entered the University of| » and to the astonishment of the students, enrolled for a course in civil engineering. Graduating later, she was unable to use this training because of the prejudice at that time against women in “men’s” professions, and so entered the teaching profession, taking her first position at Lincoln, Neb., where she remained 10 years. Husband Died in 1892 In 1890 she married Burt Richards, ‘but he died in 1892, She moved to St. Paul, where she taught at the Longfellow school. In 1899 she taught school at Jamestown, and the follow- ding year took up a claim in what was then Billings county, just a mile from ‘the Montana line. Her land extended from the corner where highways Nos. 10 and 16 now cross in Beach, reach- ing a half mile north and east. She built the first residence in Beach, now occupied by the E..C. Nel- son family. Residences now stand on her land, in what is called Richards’ first addition to Beach. During the first trying winters, Mrs; Richards taught school in Dickinson, and lived on her homestead in the six summer months. In 1902 she was elected superintendent of the county schools and at this time the thought of creating a town, in which her homestead would lie, came to her. ‘The Hunter Land company laid out the plat for a town, and Beach came into existence, although not imme- diately. The first lot was sold to a man named Fleet, who set up a store, but since all ranch trails led across the prairie bet Sentinel Butte or Wibaux, nture did not prosper until ‘word of good crops har- this valley passed about.

D., Sept. 11—()}— Harvey Saldin of Coleharbor and John Nelson of Binford, recent mem- bers of CCC Company 794 located at the peace garden near here, have been awarded the international peace garden scholarships for the school year 1935-36. These scholarships are awarded on the basis of school work done in the camp, previoug scholastic records, and contributions "to company morale, leadership and dependability. ‘The fund was made possible through contributions collected by the Dun- seith chamber of commerce from Dunseith business men and officers and foremen in the camp. Saldin is attending the University of North Dakota and Nelson, the Val- ley City Teachers college. Maj. William H. Payne, inspector of the Minot area CCC, and Roy E. Bailey, district educational advisor for the state, cooperated with John G. West, president of the university, and ©. E, Allen of the Valley City school, in establishing the plan. A third award is to be made at the beginning of the second semester. ‘William Campbell, president of the local chamber of commerce; Ray Murray, mayor, and Kenneth Dale, education advisor of the CCC com- pany, were members of the commit- tee making the award. No Protests Against Rye Control Program Washington, Sept. 11.—(#)—With- out a single protest pending from bakers or millers against a rye con- trol program, the farm administra- tion drove ahead Wednesday to whip Und contemplated flour plan into final form. Then came an influx of farmers, de- spite the bitter opposition of the ranchers. In 1913, Mrs. Richards made the city a gift of a-site for a high school and the following year a school was erected. Taking a prominent part in all civic activities, she also found time to become active in the Eastern Star and P. E. O. organizations. ‘With the World war came financial reverses and in 1915 she went to Min- neapolis where she promoted a com- pany for drilling for oil at Electra, Texas. Oil was not found in paying quantities, and she entered business at Amarillo, Tex., and later returned to Beach, entering the grocery busi- ness here. In 1924 the lure of the Florida: land boom proved too much. Her health failed her during this pe- Aaeed and the last years of her life j were spent in Powell and Cody, Wyo.
