a prize. which range from $3.50 down

A Good Position

Can be had by ambitious young men
and ladies in the field of Wireless" or
Railway Telegraphy. Since the 8-hour
law became effective and since the
wireless companies are establishing sta
tons throughout the country there is a
great shortage Of telegraphers. Posi-
tons pay beginners from $40 to 500
per month, with good chance Of ad-
vancement. The National Telegraph
Institute Of Portland, Ore. operates
under supervision of R. R. and wireless
officials, and places all graduated into
positions. 1t will pay you to write

TIME TRIED AND FIRE TESTED
Library Benefit Entertainment

Last Friday night witnessed one oil
the largest crowds that has ever turned
out at the Scenic Theatre. No doubt
the fact that the management Of the
Scenic gave out the information that
half of the net proceeds would go for
the benefit of the public library was a
good drawing card, as everyone would
like to see the public library success.
But regardless of this fact the show was
an extra good one, well worth the price
of admission, and was pronounced one
of the best OF its kind seen here in a
long time.
The program was gotten up by the
ladies who are promoting the library,
and they are deserving OF much praise.
The portion of the net proceeds which
went to the library fund was $40. This
and other moneys raised by different
kinds of entertainments will go toward
the upkeep Of the library and the pur-
chase OF new books.
w. B. Simpson, the local pen artist,
who has at different times made car
toons for The Echo, had some of his
work thrown on the curtain, several
pictures bearing strong resemblance
to M. B. Hake and J. w. Elliott, on
the order of the Mutt & Jeff pictures,
were shown, which provoked much
laughter, as did those of George Hatha-
way, the soft drink man." and K. K.
Bowsher, the popcorn vendor.
Miss Ella Kirtley, Clyde Davis and
E. P Sharman rendered solos which
called for encores. The Mcintosh lad
dies in Scotch costume danced the
Highland fling and sword dance, and
captured the audience.
Prof McDaniePs violin solo was rem
dered with his usual facility and ex-
preston. In response to vociferous
applause he treated the audience to
that old time musical gem, Then
You'll Remember Me-"
Mrs. Van De Crit and Mr. Simpson,
who were on the program for readings,
added to this large collection Of laurels
as entertainers.

flowers sent for the occasion by eastern
relatives Of the fair, young bride. The
house was beautifully decorated in

WHOLE FARM TO GO
INTO WINTER WHEAT.

Devils Lake, N. D., Aug. 30.-
Probably one of the most enthusi-
astic winter wheat farmers in
Ramsey county is Charles Baker,
who insists that he going to put in
his entire farm into winter wheat
as soon as he completes this har-
vest. So successful was Mr.. Baker
with this years attempt that he
is going to venture into the BUSH
ness on a large scale and feels
confident OF his success.
Mr.. Baker hit for the threshing
fields to day. He says he has a
varied crop this year and has put
everything which spells "diversi-
fed farming" to a test, having
flax, oats, barley, corn and wheat
in equal abundance on his places
as well as his successful venture
in winter wheat this year.
The threshing of this wheat
went thirteen bushels to the acre
and his oats he figures will so
fifty to sixty bushels To the acre,
as indicated by few bundles al
ready threshed
Not since 1884 has there been
such an oat crop in this section,
according to Mr.. Baker, when los
bushels TO the acre was the order.
The corn Is especially good this
year and some excellent samples
are on display at the Baker Office.

TRIBUNE MOURNS
DEAR" DEPARTED

Bismarck Tribune: Ed. Hill, some
times signing himself -. Edmund
HILL" IL among the missing. and he
IL deeply mourned by The Tribune
force as when he disappeared he had
about 500 Of Tribune money with him.
Hill was last seen in Glendive, but IL
Is not thought he was doing any work
there. The last place he worked was
Wibaux. He secured large list of
new subscribers there and failed to
remit. Nothing was thought Of it for
few days as he has often had as
large amounts if not larger and has
always settled. Needless to say Hill Is
no longer connected with The Tribune.
To those who knew the man 1t is hard
to believe, that he has decamped with
the money as he had good place
and one with which he was apparent
" satisfied. He was while with The
Tribune hard worker and faithful
employe-up to the last exploit.
His former home is at Garden City,
Kan, where 1T is understood he has a
mother and a brother and sister liv-
ing. The police of the country are
being notified OF his disappearance and
1t will be but q short time until he is
returned to Bismarck If he is still in
the land of the living.

SCIENCE SCHOOL
GYM. NEARLY READY

Wahpeton, N. D., Aug. 30.-Con-
struction work on the new gymnasium
for the state school of science in this
city is being pushed with the hope of
having the building finished soon after
school opens. The new building is to
be 60x100 feet, inside with a front for
offices and dressing rooms 20xS0 feet.
The first floor contains shower bath,
drying room and locker room for the
girls and another for the women
teachers, on the south side, and the
same accommodation on the north side
for the boys and men teachers. The
second floor contains the gymnasium
and the auditorium proper which is a
room 60x100 feet inside,
Suspended from this ceiling is a gall
lery and running track and in front
of the gymnasium floor are three Of
fices and a storeroom. The building
is to be constructed Of Hebron pressed
brick and Kettle river stone. The
building will be credit to the school
and the state and will relieve the con-
gestion in the shops as the old gym
nasium IL to be used for additional
shop work.
Many registrations are coming in for
the fall term and the chances are that
the school will be crowded to its
limit.

ROAD CLEANUP
DAYS PLANNED
ONCE A WEEK MORTON COUNTY
MOTORISTS WILL UNDER
TAKE WORK.

Mandan, N. D., Aug. Remarkable
success has been achieved by the auto
mobile owners of Mandan in their good
roads campaign, which is second to
none in the state. In a single days
campaign, eighteen automobile owners
of Mandan took part, carrying parties
of from four to six members. They
covered a radius Of fifteen miles in
every direction from the city, there be-
ing ninety persons engaged In the
work.
One of the most helpful features of
the Morton county campaign is the
fact that the farmers are becoming
unusually active, and as they drive
over the country roads. any opportuni-
ty to better conditions is taken ad-
vantage Of.
One cleanup day week will be OBJ
served hereafter. and on that day the
auto owners will spend most OF their
time improving the highways.
