visitors who came to enjoy the con-
vention and take in the town and do
shopping this week.
The largest delegation from any
one city came from Minot, the Magic
city of Ward county and they were
perhaps the most enthusiastic crowd
attending and every evening marched
the streets singing and meeting the
late corners that arrived On the even
ing trains. There were also delegates
from all the surrounding towns and
the first day Of the convention was
spent almost entirely by those at
tending in looking over the sample
lines OF goods displayed by the vari-
Gus wholesale houses in the sample
rooms of the hotel, at the Armory
and school house. There are over
fifty firms displaying goods and they
sent the most complete lines suitabl
for the drug trade that the houses
carry
Monday evening the Commercial
club met with Col. Kelly in the chair,
and arrangements were made for the
entertainment of the delegates. The
committees that were appointed
helped to look after the affairs of the
convention and worked in COOPER

In entertaining the visitors. The CON-
mercial club guaranteed certain

The local druggists committee are

The residents of the city who had
spare rooms that they wished to rent
and the number of rooms that we're
available and all arriving that were
unable to get into the hotels were
placed in rooms from the headquar-
tiers. The people of the city who OPEN
ed up their homes for the accommo-
dation of the druggists were the best
people OF the city and all the visitors
are speaking of their accommodations
in the very highest terms. All are
loud in their praise of Devils Lake
and will be glad to come back to the
city If there should ever be a conven.
ton held here again.
The second days session of the con-
vention was held Wednesday and the
attendance was much larger than the
first day as delegates from all over
the state arrived during the night and
the city was crowded with strangers.
There were many more arrived Thurs
day to attend the last days session. A
large number of the visitors who ar
rived Tuesday and Wednesday brought
their entire families and the city peo-
pie of Devils Lake showed their hos
pitality Wednesday by turning out
with their autos and carriages and
taking the visitors for rides about the
