A few miles west of Mandan a cer pulled up behind them. A handsome young man leaned out a rear seat window, beckoned. “Would you like a lift, girls?” Yes, they would. en Into the front seat behind the driver, they lively stepped. Off roared e car. “Now, you fems gotta behave,” snarled the driver out of the side of his mouth. “See dat guy in the back seat? He'll plug ya if ya don't do what yer told to do.” Startled, the girls glanced back. Two men sat in the back seat. They paled. One of the men had the lower half of his face covered by a handkerchief. In his lap laid a vicious looking machine gun. Visions of being pumped full of lead, their bodies tossed out into the ditch flashed through the girls’ minds as tongue-tied they sat wondering why ever they had accepted this “ride.” On the car roared. The three men sat grim, silent. Nearing Dickinson, one of the girls quaveringly asked the driver if they could get out. It was as far as they were going, she added. “Naw. You'se gals button your lip. We're goin’ to knock over the bank. And you're goin’ to be life insurance,” the driver growled. Into Dickinson they speeded. Before the bank, the car came to halt with a shriek of brakes. The girls sat motionless, “Well, you can get out now,” the driver said pleasantly. The two men in the back seat chuckled. The girls still sat like statues. “Well; Isn’t this-where you get off?” the driver asked. The men in the back seat were doubled up with laughter. 7 “We're just having a little fun,” the driver spoke soothingly. “We're three engineers on our way to Miles City. Jack, back there, has a bad touch of hay fever. That's the reason for the handkerchief. And that isn’t a machine gun. It’s a transit.” GEMS: Gleaned from our contemporaries: Are They All Bad? “we have a good doctor now and we hope the government will retain Wrestlers? “Louis Baker, district farmer of Independence, came down and brot with him Mike Bassett.” 2 Ns * JUST ANOTHER BRIDEGROOM That good old handshaking spirit and “glad-to-see-you-here-today” greeting that is so much a part of service club fraternalism coupled with a slight lapse of memory caused Norman Livdahl, hustling head of the Short- stop Service corporation, considerable embarrassment, E Livdahl entered the Grand Pacfic hotel lobby to attend the luncheon meeting of the Lions club and was surprised at the number of outside guests apparently waiting for the dinner call. Noting there were few, if any, of the brethern around, Normy promptly appointed himself as a one-man reception committee. His work of greeting achieved, Li escorted his guests into the dining room. : 4 Imagine his chagrin, when just as he stepped up to the table, it sud- denly dawned on him that he was at the Kiwanis luncheon, Al Brink came to the rescue and invited Livdahl to remain for dinner, insofar as he had done such a fine job of greeting the guests. Norman blamed the miscalculation to Labor Day but close friends re- membered his approaching marriage and were Properly sympathetic, AY! VE TANK YU oe 8 oe him. Underwood, N.

Doctor Waterfowl Haven Hopes for County lake full. On several occasions bot- ulism disease spread among ducks on the lake and they died by the thou- sands. Dikes to Solve Trouble ‘What Steen now proposes to do is to lreduce the area of the lake to a size which can be kept filled with water even in a dry year, a development similar to that in the Great Bear marshes in Utah. This would be done by the construction of a system of dikes which would divide the lake into sections. Object of the program, Steen said, ‘Radeon be the employment of men under the work relief program, and the development of natural and water resources by providing places for the |Minot, cl propagation of fish, fur and feathers. In most cases the work will consist of the construction of dams, riprapping, diversion ditches and spillways and the marking of refuges. Each of these projects is different from the major proposal at McKenzie slough since use of the land has been obtained under easements granted by present owners. One hope of the biological survey, Steen said, is to develop lakes and sloughs so that trapping may again become a profitable occupation for farmers. At one time, he said, $2,- 000,000 a year was brought into the state from this source and the price of fur was then only about one-third of what it is now.

Pointing out that the CCC men can to- in| be employed here quite as profitably as in other northern states and that units sent south last winter lost as many working days because of rain as those in the north lost because of cold weather, the veterans voted to ask the government to revise its pro- gram and keep North Dakota men in North Dakota. Men who have studied the subject pointed out that nearly all kinds of construction operations can be carried on here during the cold months and eeseeest set set 838 383888888888 ry SBSESREBERSeSESssss :| that the health of CCC men will be 0 protected if they are left here, since this is the healthiest state in the union. Ask for Cooperation Post officers were instructed to bring the matter to the attention of the proper government and state offi- cials and to ask that other Legion posts throughout the state join in the campaign. Report of the committee which the “On to St. Louis” car- -| managed nival last June, whereby it was hoped to raise enough money to send the local drum and bugle corps to the national convention of the Legion at St. Louis, disclosed a profit of only $500, whereas $2,500 would have been necessary to finance the venture. Rather than ask for contributions from local residents and business firms to carry out the original plan it was decided to abandon the trip. The profits from the carnival will be used to finance the charitable work of the Legion in Bismarck and vicinity. Report on Tourneys E. M. Davis reported on the state junior baseball tournament held here in July, and Harry Rosenthal re- ported on the regional tournament in August at which Bismarck was host from four northwest states.

Gospel Tabernacle Sunday GIDEON FOUNDER IS VISITOR IN CAPITAL John H. Richardson Seeks to Revivify Commercial Trav- elers Body Here John H. Richardson, oné of the foynders of The Gideons, an organ- ization of Christian commercial trav- elers, believes the United States is on the mend. He has traveled in 10 or 12 states recently and said he sees signs of it everywhere. Not only that, he remarked, but the traveling man is coming back. Not the traveling order taker but the old- time traveling man with trunks con- taining his line of goods which can be laid out in a sample room and shown to the trade. The reason, he said, is that this system sells more goods. Nicholson, now 76 years old and “on the road” as @ commercial trav- eler for 52 years, came here to assist in revitalizing the local Gideon camp and will be here much of the week. Sunday he will speak at three differ- ent churches, appearing before the men’s Bible class at the Evangelical church at 10 a. m.; speaking at the Presbyterian church at 11 a. m., and at McCabe Methodist Episcopal church at 7:30 p. m. The response which he is obtain- ing on his present trip around the country, he said, has been splendid. Better times are one of the reasons. North Dakota, he said, formerly was once one of the most active fields for Gideon work, the traveling men of this state having placed 14,156 Bibles in hotel rooms and other pub- lic places. He hopes to see it re- sume its former place in Gideon af- fairs. The work, he said, has spread throughout the world, every room in the new King David hotel, recently constructed at Jerusalem, having been supplied with a Bible along with a hotel in Tokyo, Japan. C. G. Boise, an officer of the local Gideon camp, is assisting Richardson in his work ‘here. He announced that a joint convention for Gideons of North and South Dakota would be held here the first Saturday and Sunday of May, 1936. The last Gideon convention was held here about six years ago, he said. 5 Will Be Confirmed At Lutheran Church Confirmation will be administered at 10:30 o'clock Sunday morning at the First Lutheran church.
