"VALLEY OF JIM? IS N. D. PIONEER TALE %ook Written by Laura B. San- deraon Relates Many Hu- morous Incidents Just off the press last week was “In the Valley of the ‘Jim’,” a story of Pioneers and early history of the James River valley by Miss Laura B. Sanderson, who is, herself, a member of one of the pioneer families of La- Moure county. ‘The book naturally will be of par- ticular interest to those familiar wit the LaMoure vicinity. But the a thor’s informal style and humorous account of some of the early hap- Penings in LaMoure and Grand Rapids tend to give the little volume a wider spreal than would otherwise be ex- pect With the aid of newspaper stories of the day, Miss Sanderson draws an amusing picture of the county seat fight, which finally resulted in La- Moure’s being chosen instead of Grand Rapids. Tells of Editor’s Dilemma A hilarious account of “A Pioneer Editor's Dilemma” is told by C. C. Bowsfield, pioneer editor of LaMoure. ‘The well known Joe Mitchell Chap- ple, now of New York and Boston, was editor of the Grand go to pidiogy Hicshinie agreed over type own paper and fill the Grand Rapids columns. He also was to bring the minister from LaMoure. Looked Like Put-up Job «Bowsfield’s language so astonished took place, ‘The happy couple left for Jamestown, And then the paper went to press. To take the place of the pied type, Editor Bowsfield had brought a choice editorial, caustically denouncing Grand Rapids politicians for their machinations. It took Bowsfield some time to convince Chapple either of his good intentions to simply fill up space or that the pied type wasn’t a put- up job. Miss Sanderson has done excellent work in the division of subject mat- ter for her book. First, she gives the general history of the county, passing on from that section to “first’s” in the county, the first Fourth of July, Memorial park and the like. After taking up various phases of com- munity life, such as school and churches, she deals with pioneer ex- Legionnaire Weeps Tears of self-pity streamed down the cheeks of 220-pound Virgil Hebert Effinger, reputed Black Legion chieftain, as pictured above, when a Lima, O., judge ordered him extradited to Wayne county, Mich., to face criminal syndicalism charges. The tears dried when the judge allowed defense attorneys to take the habeas corpus case to the court of appeals, giving Effinger another two months of freedom under $2,000 bond. Effinger, whose daughter, Betty, 16, has her arm around him, recently surrendered after being a fugi- tive for 15 months, tioned with a few, well-chosen sen- Jamestown Pioneer | Black A brief introduction is written by i soap Bein le ales Dies in | California of LaMoure, former governor of the state and state superintendent of Sunes ek eh aiae eae schools.
