Devils Lake was selected as the
place for holding the midsummer
session of the North Dakota Press
association this morning and N. B.
Black, general manager of the Even
ing Times, was elected president O:
the association for the issu ng year.
Scarcely had the session opened
this morning, when the idea of select
ing the place for the midsummer
meeting was given life. D.. V. Bren.
nan of the Devils Lake Inter-Ocean
extended a hearty invitation to the
newspaper men to hold their mid
summer gathering at the Satanic
city. In a feight of oratory Mr.. Bren-
nan told of the advantages to be had
in Devils Lake in the summer time
He told of the material progress that
Devils Lake had made both in mat
ter OF population and building
growth in the last few years. "The
spirit which has seldom been evil
denced in any city of the state has
taken firm hold" said MIR. Bren-
nan, land it is our desire that you
lie with us at the Chautauqua and sec
Devils Lake in full bloom. 1t is our
desire to make the midsummer meet
ing one long to be remembered by the
North Dakota Press association. 1t
will be one grand recreation period,
that will let all editors for get their
cares and troubles. Mr.. Brennan
promised an address from one of the
newspaper fraternity of national
fame, perhaps, Col. Watterson. In
closing, he, Brennan, extended a
cordial invitation in behalf of the
Devils Lake Commercial club and
President w. H. Horton of that Or
ganization, guaranteeing. regardless
of the excellent hospitality shown
previously by Williston, Fargo and
Grand Forks, that it would be the
best session the State Press associa-
ton had ever held.
B. G. Whitehead of Williston urged
the motion in behalf of Devils Lake,
telling in an originary way. only
known to Editor Whitehead" that
Devils Lake was noted for its hos
pitality and the midsummer conven-
tion should go to the Satanic City.
He suggested that it was a city of
beautiful homes and an excellent OPP
portunity was afforded to take to the
woods.
C. E. Boyd of the Lisbon Free Press
followed with remarks, seconding the
motion, while c. N. Plumly OF the
Fargo Forum offered an amendment
inviting the next annual winter meet
ing in 1912 to Fargo. Accordingly
Devils Lake for the midsummer and
FARGO for the annual went through
sailing and to the hearts approval OF
all in attendance.
