great interest to everybody to visit

whether it will be taken before or aft
er reaching the historic city Of Dead
wood,
On the return trip the party win be
entertained at Rapid City, Tuesday
evening, July 2. 1t is now planned to

The train may be scheduled to run
to Ruskin Park, of the beauty
spots of South Dakota, where you will
find all the comforts OF the fashion
able summer resorts in America, all
of which is the property Of our dis
tinguished president, r. e. DowdeIl.
The courtesies Of the park have been
extended to the association by Mr..
Dowdell and / am able to say that
there r something like a half hum
dred modern and modest cottages,
equipped with an amusement pavilion
and an assembly hall that Is UNEQUAL
led by any resort in the country. Many
of these buildings were purchased at
the st. Louis exposition and moved to
these grounds and reconstructed so
that those OF you who may have been
guests at the st. Louis exposition will
probably recognize some of the build
ings when you come to visit this park,
should the itinerary be so changed so
to take this feature Of the programme
in.
It is not possible It this time to give
an adequate idea OF the entertainment
which will be offered the association
on this trip. 1t can only be said that
all of the towns named have respond
ed to the invitation to entertain the
association in a way that bespeaks for
the association a royal welcome all
along the route.
The full programme will appear IN
the next issue Of the National Jour-
nalist. published by Father Herbert,
the neStor Of the national association.

newspaper men, said to a representa-
tive Of The Argus-Leader. when asked
regarding the coming outing:
Never in the twenty-seven years
history Of the association has a state

bodily, made the members it's guests,
permitting them to pay neither rail-
way nor hotel bills. or any other ex-
pense while within its borders, and
this is just what the state of South
Dakota is going to do for her distin-
guished guests from June 2s to
July 8.
There is nc question but that the
four day congress and convention in
the city of Chicago win be interesting,
and it is equally true that the seven
day trip through South Dakota. cov-
