to the Evans where banquet was
given them by the Commercial Club.
Each of the visitors expressed surprise
and delight at the size and magnifl
cence of the Evans, which was able to
seat all the visitors at one time in the
spacious dining rooms.
just previous to the serving of the
meal, Mayor Riordan in a short speech
again welcomed the visitors Secretary

them being President Dowdell, of Ar.
tesisn, this state. of the Association,
Secretary George Schlosser, of Sioux
Falls, "Happy Cal" Caldwell of Sioux
City, and Mrs. Bartlett, Of Detroit,
Michigan. The last named lady finished
her remarks with short poem which
she had composed while at the table
and which Is given below:
Twenty miles to bath,
And the N. P. A.
In dusty array,
Now dares to be gay,
Just think Of it, say,
Well tub today
Twenty miles to q bath,
Do you think they can stand
On face and on hand
The CRIME and the sand?
And won't it be grand
To leave them some land?
Twenty miles to bath,
| Do you think we'll create
A mountain of state
And their hills emulate?
Do you think they will date
Their new real estate
By the N. P. AS. weight?
Twenty miles from a bath
And merciful saints,
The water it takes,
They'll need to have lakes,
And mountainous cakes
OF soap for the proper removal
or dermatoid flakes.
After the banquet, those of the party
who desired either visited the Morris
Grand where Manager Block gave q
free picture show for their benefit or
went to the plunges. In the water.
however, everyone seemed to have the
time of their lives and it was q tired

most of the party were on the streets
and those who wished we're driven to
Wind Cave. Between fifty and sixty
visited the Gave. The remainder Of
the party we're loaded in autos and
carriages and taken for trip about
the city and at ten O'Clock were set
down at the Battle Mountain Sanitar-
ium where they were met by Governor
Mstteson and his staff and shown thru
the building. Here again they were
pleasantly surprised at this enormous
institution which Uncle Sam has 10.
Gated here. The manner In which it is
conducted and the conditions prevail
ling which tend to the comfort of the
war veterans, we're source Of wonder
to many.
From the Sanitarium the party was
taken to the plunges for another dip
before the dinner hour and another
royal good time was the result. From
the plunges the party was conveyed to

The business and professional men
here also decided to pay $50 per day to
have moving picture expert come
here and make films of numerous
features which are exclusive at this re-
sort. The club also voted to co. operate
with the Black Hills Development
League, which organization will lend
it's efforts especially to bringing con :.
ventions and gatherings to the Black
Hills.
The work of this commercial club is
financed by dues from sll members
and by assessments paid in by all inter.
ests of the city in proportion to the
direct benefit the various interests re-
ceive from the results the club obtains.
DR.. F. E. Walker and DR.. Perry Nichols,
both of whom are heavy contributors
to the work Of the club, enthused the
last meeting by announcing that they
would give three hundred dollars to
the club to be used in advertising the
city as the club saw fit.
By reason of the recent rains excel.
lent crops are almost assured in this
section and a larger number of people
have come here the past month than
for any June for several years and there
is every reason for believing that this
community and the entire Black Hills
will secure good returns on all the
money that is spent this season on
boosting.

"As the Dakota Farmer goes to press

our reports do not indicate any serious

been at this season of the year during
that period. have personally examined
hundreds of fields in different sections

no blowing at all. Never have the re-
suits of good and bad farming been
SO apparent as this year During the
past two weeks staff representatives OF
the Dakota Farmer have covered all
portions of South Dakota east of the
Missouri, the eastern half OF Montana
and practically all Of North Dakota

special correspondents and the per.

the fiual score being 20 to % In favor
