The new quartérs will be two doors north of the present location, 116 Fifth St. Though the club will be ready for business Wednesday, the formal open- ing will probably not take place for enother week, according to Vincent Kielty and Frank Loomis, proprie- tors. New Glass Front A new type of glass construction will give the Blackstone club the most distinctive front of any Bis- marck building. The entire front will be built of a black glass, known as Carrara, Oddly-shaped windows will be set into the glass. The Blackstone club is the first Bismarck concern to use this new pbuilding material for its front en- trance, Inside, the club is entirely redeco- rated. Walls are painted three dif- ferent shades of green, and the ceil- ing is ivory. There is a 16-stool, metal-trimmed lunch counter in addition to the long bar. Behind the bar is a large 14-foot Uquor case.

It can be seen in the lobby of The Tribune. Although many men helped make the excursion an outstanding success, two men did more of the work of organizing and promoting than any others. They are H. O. Putnam, Bur- leigh county's modest agricultural agent, and Theodore Fosse, Richland county, Montana, agent. Three complete train crews by just shepherding the train from Bismarck to Mandan. An- other crew, was on the job from Mandan to Glendive. A third crew took charge of the train from Glendive to Sidney. Northern Pacific officials aboard were Ober A. Kobs, Bismarck agent; L. 8. MacDonald, Missoula, Mont., agricultural development agent; H. W. Byerly, St. Paul, general tion agent; George Brooks, St. Paul, trav passenger agent; and R. C. Murphy, traveling freight agent. Special menus were printed by the railway company for the cafe car. At the head of the menu were the words “Missouri River Irrigation Party.” Jovial Jack Monroe, city editor of a Dickinson paper, was out of bed early to greet the excursionists and to let them know that Dickinson was in- terested in developing irrigation. Among agricultural agents aboard were Putnam and his Burleigh county assistant, Alfred Ballweg and Mrs. Ballweg; R. C. Newcomer, Morton county agent and his assistant, D, Groom; W. J. Lawrence, Mott, Het- tinger county; R. J. Montomery, Stan- ton, Mercer county; Ralph K. Welch, Watford City, McKenzie county; and MR.

The latter was a baggage car in which Mandan wholesale beverage Pany doled out 100 cases of cold beer free. ’ No special train is a success with- out a pick-up men’s chorus. Al P. Simon of the Bismarck Soo Line’s of- fice and a member of the city’s most popular male quartet, rounded up the songbirds he could find. Their ren- ditions ranged from “How Dry I Yam” to Tosti’s “Goodbye, Summer.” There are some 7,000 persons resid- ing in the Yellowstone valley. The excursionists swore the whole valley turned out to greet them at Intake. ‘There were 90 cars ready with drivers to take the North Dakotans on the tour. And interesting and significant was the fact that the majority of the cars were in the middle-price class and new or only one year old. It was as good an index of prosperity as was seen on the whole trip. And speaking of automobiles in the Yellowstone valley, all of the better farms had two-car garages. On the Holger Peterson farm, there was a two-car garage which didn’t have enough room for all of the Peterson cars. They have three, none of them in the lowest price range, North Dakotans learned that irrigation ditches have other uses besides carrying water. Every few miles, the tourists would pass a spot where four or more happy children were found r3 and bathing. John Christianson, rural Mandan farmer, lost some of his enthusiasm for photography at the cattle feeding yards of the Holly Sugar corpora- tion. John was perched high atop a R. | fence snapping pictures left and right. Finished, he slipped, plummeted into @ feeding trough full to the brim of the noxious feed upon which the cat- tle thrive. William Buchanan, Emmons county old settler, got a tremendous thrill out of the trip. Despite his many years of residence in western North Dakota, he never had been west of Mandan before and the sights of the Bad Lands and the Yellowstone valley proved a real tonic. There were also others aboard who never had seen Teddy Roosevelt's west before. Two Burleigh county commissioners, W. F. Cameron and W. G. Worner, enjoyed the trip. Noticed by many was the age of the majority of the excursionists. One man estimated the average age was 50, There were few younger persons, ‘While the communities of Fair- view and Sidney are intense rivals, like all good neighbors they for- got their rivairy to co-operate in shoxing- their-guests all‘there-wag, see. S Valley residents asked if they didn’t fear the expansion of irrigation point- ed out that they shipped no feed from the valley, imported much of their needs and asserted that the United States still imports three-fourths of its sugar, said there was plenty of room for more irrigated farming. Among those welcoming the excur- sion was Dr. Carroll M. Lund of Fair- view, who was chairman of the picnic VOICE OF THE native of Univer- sity of North Dakota. He has prac- ticed medicine in the valley four years. Proud are the business and pro- fessional men of the valley of their farmers, Many of the farmers belong to the two chambers of commerce in the valley and are always leaders in & community endeavor. More than half the cars in the caravan were farmers’ cars. In hot water was one Bismarck man when he arrived back at the special train for the trip home. He bid his driver-host- goodbye and then discov- ered to his dismay he had left his coat in the car with his return ticket in the pocket. His distress was soon relieved by railway officials.

Trailer Baby Arrives in Spite of Troubles Nashua, Ia., July 31—(?)—Six-foot Dr. P. E. Stuart bumped his head in the process, but he delivered the first “trailer baby” born in Iowa. Dr. Stuart, crouched in the nar- row, low-cellinged trailer home of Mr. and Mrs. Burton White, found that the gas stove wouldn’t work and had to procure an oil stove to heat water. Every time he raised: his head, it bumped against the ceiling. But Dr. Stuart conquered these ob- stacles and brought Darla Frances White into the world in the 7-by-16- foot traveling home. “I asked them afterwards why they didn’t drive the trailer up to my office and use it as a maternity hospital,” Dr. Stuart said, “it would have been a lot easier.” Family Claims Record U.S. Navy Enlistment Bluefield, W.

These figures do not include money made feeding lambs and cattle. Mrs. Charles Hardy is proud of the fact that she entered the valley a virtually penniless woman in 1900, Of French descent and raised in the Rolla vicinity, she homesteaded 160 acres, married Mr. Hardy, also a home- steader. Today the Hardy holdings are among the largest in the valley. They have every modern convenience a housewife’s heart can desire. There is an opening in the Yellow- stone valley for a livewire real estate agent, one of the Fairview business man said. There also are other busi- ness possibilities for those who have imagination, industry and enterprise. Donald Foote Back on Bismarck Store Staff Mr. and Mrs. Donald Foote have entered the employ of the Oregon Electric and the Spokane, Portland & Seattle railways as principal engineer of construction, subsequently being trainmaster and superintendent. In 1913, Gray was assistant to the general manager of the Burlington Road and the next year returned to the Frisco as assistant to the general superintendent of the first division.
