Ward County Newspaper Men viii
Form Association.
Pursuant to call issued by the
Minot Press club, a number of Ward
county newspaper men gathered in
Minot and perfected an organization
to be known as the Ward County
Editorial association. The business
session was held at the Commercial
club rooms, where the editors spent
severa hours discussing matters of
moment to the newspaper business.
Sam H. Clark of the Minot Daily Re.
porter, was chosen chairman and
Leigh C. Carroll of the Carpio News
was elected secretary. The organiza.
ton is but temporary, it being
thought best to defer the making of
a permanent organization until the
next meeting, which will be held in
Minot next month, and at which time
1t is hoped to have practically every
paper in the country represented.

hotel
1t is the intention of the Ward and
McHenry county newspaper men to
make every effort to bring the state
editorial association to Minot this
year for their annual meeting, the
date to be May 13. The fact that
the Republican state convention is
to be held here on the day following
will bring a majority of the newspa-
per men to the city, and it is believed
that the state association meeting
could be best held at that time.

utes. He had but few minutes IN
which to get ready to go to the park
and decided to dress there. Hurry
ing into the store he grabbed a suit
case, caught the trolly car and upon
arrival at the park hastened to the
dressing room to get into his baseball
togs. When he opened the grip. he
nearly fell dead, because, instead of
grabbing a pair Of dirty baseball
trousers he held up to the light of
day something that would not fit at
all. In fact he had an entire grip full
of dainty apparel such as is usually
worn by ladies. There were shirt
waists "and SUCH until further or
ders, but young Holly could find
nothing suitable to be worn in lieu
of a ball suit and he had to appear
in his store clothes.
A hurried inquiry at the store de-
veloped the fact that lady destined
for one Of the nearby camps had
also left suit case at the drug store
and, to make matters worse, she had
taken the one belonging to Holly, as
it closely resembled her own At
last reports the suit cases were still
exchanged and Holly was trying to
bribe Stillman to keep quiet about
his having walked on with grip
full of ladies wearing apparel
