CHILDREN TO TAKE PART INBOOK WEEK Youngsters Will Vote for Favor- ites and Will Receive Book Markers In an pen letter to boys and girls of the community, Miss Marjorie Rankin, in charge of the Bismarck Public library's juvenile department, invites participation in Book week, Nov. 15 to 21. «Her letter, plans for the observance, follows: Dear Boys and Girls: You know the coming week, Nov. 15 to 21, is Book week. All over the country boys and girls are celebrating as we are here in Bismarck. Book publishers are helping celebrate it by putting on the market many new books at this time of year. Book sell- ers are helping celebrate it by calling our attention to the best of them. Have you seen any signs of Book week at school? Watch for one. If you ask your teacher she will tell you that it is Book weck. In the children’s room at the Bis- marck Public library we are celebrat- ing Book week in a special way. You will see, as you enter, the colorful poster telling the theme of Book week this year. It is “Books to grow on: the modern world for the young reader.” Our shelves at the library hhave many books you can grow on and many you will want to “grow up with.” Our aim this week ts to make these books easier for you to find and use. To do this we have invited your teachers to bring their classes to the library during the week for special instruction in how to use the library, and for book talks. Many of the classes from the nearby schools are coming, For each visitor in the children’s roam this week we have a gift—a book mark, On this book mark, which is different for each grade, there is a list of books which you will want to read sometime, From the publishers we have ob- tained the originals of illustrations by several well known artists. They will be on display in the library, If you have read “Jamaica Johnny” with its lovely illustrations by Berta and Elmer Hader, come and see the real drawing they made for that book. Everyone who visits the children’s room this week will be asked to vote for his or her favorite book. We want to know which book the boys and girls f Bismarck like the best. I am won- dering, already, which one it will be. Do you think you know? Next Saturday for story hour (11 o'clock, of course) we are going to have something special. Two stu- dents from Miss Leal Edmond’s Eng- lish classes at the high school are . coming down to tell us stories, The? have been studying stery telling in class, and the two best tellers have been chosen to come down and tell Stories for us, Be sure you come Sat- urday and bring your friend along. Here is a message for your father and mother We want to give a special invitation to all adults to come down and visit our children’s room. We think we have a very pleasant and cheerful children’s library. Too, it 1s getting near Christmas time and if they are thinking of books as gifts for the children we will be glad to dis- cuss new books with them and glad to let them look over our new ones. A complete list of the recent titles we have added to the children’s room will be in the paper this week. Watch for it. We will be expecting every one of you to drop into the library during Unis special week—Book week. Yours truly, MARJORIE RANKIN, Children’s Librarian, Bismarck Public Library. Pace of Business Is Fastest So Far in ’36 New York, Noy. 20.—(4)—Some di- visions of retail and wholesale trade proceeded at the fastest pace thus far ir, 1936 during the current week, Dun & Bradstreet said Friday in the weekly review of business. “The broadening wave of retail buying brought upward revisions in the estimates of Christmas totals,” the review said, “sales of luxury items being indicated at close to the 1929 peak. The strong surge of retail dis- tribution was evident in the reorders to wholesalers, the volume of many being limited only by their ability to obtain from manufacturers ship- ments which were overdue a month oy more.” Detroit Plans Pass Attack Against N. D. Detroit, Mich. Nov. 20.—()—The University of North Dakota football squad was due here late Friday for, Saturday's game with University of Detroit's crippled Titans. A telegram from Coach Jack West said the North Dakotans would arrive too late for a workout here and the boys would stretch legs in Chicago. 1 which gives in detail BABY ‘MOSES’ STORY THE BIS. PROVES HOAX Blue-eyed Baby “Moses” remained in a New Orleans hospital after Mrs, Louis Crawford of Pearl River, La., acmitted that her story of a large brindle dog carrying him to her home was false and confessed the infant as her own, saying she made up the story in order to hide the birth from her husband, a 44-year-old WPA worker. Officials said medical examina- tion indicated Mrs. Crawford had given birth to a child. The baby is shown as he was about to be encased in his incubator. Press (Associated Photo) Players Ably Present ‘Among the Breakers’ Bismarck Cast Catches Spirit of Stirring Melodrama of Old Legitimate Stage Not a miserable wretch was spared, not a heartstring was left untwanged, not one tear remained as Bismarck’s Players inaugurated their 1936-37 season with a dynamic production of George M. Baker's melodrama of the "80s “Among the Breakers.” Deserving of a larger audience the amateur Thesplans of the Capital City presented their initial stage success in the city auditorium Thursday night, the climax of the Players’ first Little Theater week. The reviewer recommends that all those who did not attend Thursday night to attend the second perform- ance tonight to curse the villain, cheer the hero and lend a hand to capable acting of a cast that has caught the spirit of Baker's immortal saga of the days when “revenge was sweet but remorse was bitter.” Dramatized in the room of a light- keeper's house on a storm-bound coast, the play revolves around the ill-fortunes of foster brothers who ensnare the lives of their immediate associates in the tragedy that springs from misunderstanding. Handled Competently Thorough preparation and compet- ent handling was displayed by all those persons in charge and partic- ipating in the production. From back- drop to footlights “Among the Break- ers” wes produced and acted with finesse and attention to detail. Leonard French, central character in. the play, carried the leading male tole with a keen appreciation that the spirit of his acting would make or break the drama. He was ably as- sisted in the “heavy” parts by Miss Edith Ramstad as “Mother Carey.” Miss Ramstad was making her debut as a Player and scored heavily with the audience. In the humorous offset roles, Ben Cave, J. Herrison Monk, Edward Stubbs, Miss Alice Jensen and Miss Dorothy TeKippe limned theif char- acters with a deftness and polish that added tremendously to the total ef- fectiveness. Miss Genevieve LaFrance, Harvey NN. Jenson and Merrill McCurry dis- played balance and judgment in in- terpreting the shades of color they lent to the smooth sequence of lines. Love Scene Is Highlight Highlight of the play was the love scene between Miss Jensen and Mc- Curry, a passage of words that aroused the audience to its greatest display of enthusiasm during the evening. Before the first curtain, Helge Zethren primed the auditors for what was to follow by impersonating the tole of the oldtime lighter of the footlamps. His actions were attuned FLAPPER FANNY BY NEA SERVICE, MHC. Detroit's Coach Gus Dorais hoped |’ to have a passing attack to capitalize on the Dakotan’s reported weakness on aerials, but Jimmy Piper and Ed- die Plumbo, star passers, were out of action. He will depend on Bob Filia- trault, untried sophomore; Charles Payne and hard running Andy Far- kas. PASTOR SCORES ACE Jamestown, N. D., Nov. 20.—(P)— Rev.
