Foley’s Tribute The poet’s soul of James W. Foley, North Dakota’s poet laureate, has long found inspiration in the kindly, stimulating words of Sister Mary ace.

FOLEY. Human Dolls How would you like a human doll? You can buy one for $50 or $60 by contacting the head-hunting Indians of Venezuela. When Henry James Mills of Aruba, Netherlands West Indies, visited his cousin, Mrs, Ed- = 7 ward G. Patterson, in Bismarck this week, he left as a memento this photo of a Texan and his human doll. The man is Ned Bell of San Antonio, Texas, accountant for the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, who bought the head he holds in his hands while vis- iting Aruba. ‘The head is that of a Venezuelan In- dian woman. Slain by foes, the body. was decapitated, the contents of the skull removed and the skullbones, skin and halr shrunken to the size of a coconut by a baking process, Bell’s head was about 10 years old when he obtained it. Head-hunting has as its basis reli- gious motives. Yet the head hunters are not even satis- fied that in death their foes cannot do them harm. So with leather thongs they sew up the ears, eyes and mouths of their dead victims. The idea is that the spir- it of the dead foe like the three mon- ae Bell is holding the head by the leather Gruesome!

Both lines embody the rev- olutionary new “Tiptoe-matic” clutch combining more positive faye Aye operating ease, ing importantly to the safety, comfort, ‘and durability of the car. The 1938 line, Chevrolet engineers assert, represents important advances over the 1937 models. All bodies have perfected hydraulic brakes, all-silent, all-steel turret top bodies by Fisher, and the trouble-free hypold rear axle. On the Master DeLuxe series, Chevrolet fully-en- closed knee action is starting its fifth year. Outwardly, the most notable change in the new Chevrolets is their ad- vanced styling, which is especially evident at the front end. Engine Is Refined Engine advances for 1638 are main- ly in the nature of refinements, al- though @ new and lighter flywheel, in conjunction with the new clutch, affords greater flexibility and quicker response to the controls, and valve- springs, valves, and certain portions of the cooling systems have been re- designed rather than simply refined. There is faster transfer of heat from the combustion chambers, especially in, the vicinity of the valves, in spite of the fact that the cooling system | in 1937 was outstanding for effi- ciency. The most notable change in the power plant and its related units is the electrical system, which is en- tirely new. Gregter body space, and increased stability on the road, are provided by widening the rear tread to a full 59 inches. In conjunction with changes in the wheel house design, this makes possible two inches greater width through the rear seat of the car. An innovation in the mode of at- taching the rear to the rear axle housing results in quieter op- eration over any type of road. The convenience and utility of the trunk models in the new line is en- greatly-increased luggage space pro- vided this year. Beanty, Safety First Beauty and safety received first consideration in the new Chevrolet interiors, Grays and tans predom- iiate in upholstery and trim, in the Master DeLuxe and the Master—the former offering Breathing Back mo- hair velvet as standard and broad- cloth as an option, and a single choice, Breathing Back mohair velvet being available in the Master series. A more attractive instrument panel which is also easier to read, an illuminated ignition lock, sure-grip contro! knobs, flush-type locking knob on the glove compartment, firmer-grip st wheel which can be adjusted to the ispoke-position preferred by the indi- divual driver, reversed control handle on “right-hand door of coach and town sedan, to prevent accidental jopening of door when seat is tilted forward, are among the numerous re- finements here. Marked advances both in safety and in convenience are gained by an entirely new design in the backs of the front seats of all five-passenger models in both series, Differences between the two series of Chevrolets are basically the. same as heretofore. In the chassis, the principal difference is the substitu- tion of conventional I-beam front ‘axle, and semi-elliptic springs, on the Master, for the fully-enclosed knee action units of the Master De- Luxe. The main additions in the case of the Master DeLuxe are as- sist cords, dome light switch on pil- Jar post, ash receivers, rear window curtains, and decorative door sill plates. The instruments are the same, except for the addition of water tem- perature gauge on the Master De- Memory of Sister Boniface Brings Tribute of Citizenry It is difficult to measure in words the esteem and the love thousands of citizens of the Northwest had for Sister Boniface. That the community and the state were shocked Saturday to hear of the passing of the nun whose rsonality and ability had so long manifested itself in the building of the Northwest was evident by the spontaneous expressions of reverence that came from many persons who had known her. James W. Foley, North Dakote’s poet laureate, wired from Pasadena, Calif.: “Sister Boniface has been one of my best beloved and most admired friends for more than 40 years. She has been truly an example of God's best grace breathed into a human soul, a woman of broad sympathy: great vision and high ideals. We! shall not see her like soon agsin.” PredL. Conklin of Bismarck, North Dakota business leader, said: “The death of Sister Boniface marks the passing of « long dist career notable not only for its success byt for the continued evidence of unselfish devotion to an institution and to the public good.” Call Her Memory Blessed Rev, Walter E. Vater, pastor of the McCabe Methodist Episcopal of Bismarck, declared: “The city and state of North Dakota has lost a rea! leader in the ranks of Christian wom- anhood. Here was a woman who lived life to the full and lived creatively. Here was a keen intellect joined to s ministry tribute to her consecreated personal- ity and business efficiency, whilst the thousands whom she served during to her but an even better monument is the love ai which went out to her from ht of thousands of entire state. It mate the value of her the development of all that North Dakota.” Former Gov. George FP. president of the Bismarck Assoc! of Commerce: “Sister Boniface behind her a record of great plishment because she was person. She truly loved her fel man and gave her life that might live. Bee ene inifll service she consecrated herse! girl. Her life was a Sesth brings grief to all w er.” Parish Meurns Passing Rev. Robert A. Feehan, pas!

F. B. Strauss, co-founder of the Strauss clinic of Bismarck: the passing of Sister Boni- it wholly unexpected by watched at her bedside weeks, nevertheless her death was a shock to the community Northwest and a real pioneer, having spent more than half a century de- voting her time and energy to th2 relief of the sick and needy. Through her efforts was brought into existence the magnificent St. Alexius hospital which will éver be a monument to her zeal, “Our association with St. Alexius hospital brought us in daily contact with her .We keenly feel the loss of a true friend, a woman of brilliant at- tainment, and sterling character.” Edwatd G. Patterson, pioneer Bis- riarck businessman: “Sister Bont- face was one of those persons who never stand still. Her will to progress had much to do with the progress Bismarck has achieved. Her counse} was welcomed by businessmen as readily as by patients. While her friends will miss her much, the city will miss her more.” A. M. Christianson, chief justice »f “lthe North Dakota supreme court: “Sister Boniface was one of the great- est and finest women I have ever known. Her life was a continuous Sermon. She it comfort and happiness into the lives of thousands. ler! She was one of the most constructive lost its outstanding citizen. St. Alex- ius will indeed seem strange without her.

Firemen said the water was rising jat the rate of sbout a foot an hour. At 10 o'clock, it had reached a depth jof more than four feet in Bladens- burg. E Business houses in Bladensburg had from two to three feet of water on their floors. Airwoman on Verge Of Distance Mark Athens, Greece, Oct. 23.—(7)—Jean.
