BISMARCK HWD. co.
BUYS BIG CONTRACT
COMPANY REPORT PAST YEAR
VERY FAvORABLE-HAVE
STRONG FAITH IN BIS.
MARCH,
W. p. Lomas an Ardent Believer in
Advertising-RightIy Places Much
Credit TO-. His Firms Success to
Tribune,

Probably the largest advertising
space contract ever sold hardware
firm in the state of North Dakota was
signed Saturday by W. P. Tomas for
the Bismarck Hardware company, Of
which he is manager and the very sue
cessful sales-p.ans used in the past
indicates that his Judgment is sound.
The purchase of this immense con.
tract for advertising with the Trib-
une company is one of the greatest
compliments ever given to the pull
ing power of this newspaper, a fact
we'll known to most regular advar-
Users. The company will use a reg
ular schedule, running their copy
just the same when business is quiet
as we'll as when trade is rushing.
This brings the greatest results pos
sible and the 6,240 inches intelligently
placed in both weekly and daily edi-
tons means he biggest years bust
ness this firm has ever enjoyed
for 1912.
A tribute to the Tribune's state
wide circulation is further shown In
the business secured from adjacent
towns, possible only by the customer
having read their advertising and
the purchase the first time
they are in Bismarck.
The Bismarck Hardware company
carry not only very complete stock
of shelf and regular hardware, but
have an extensive line of fancy, nickel
and silver kitchen and tableware
with especial attention to the ma
chinist and farmers needs in wire,
fencing, harness, oils, paints, glass,
stoves, ranges, furnaces and one of
the most complete tinware and sheet
equipments of the state. With the
present growth and future outlook
business conditions ara very favor |
able for the firm.

| King Arthur at the First Baptist
church was great success in every
way. About 125 of the friends of the
| organization came out to enjoy the
evening with the boys. The first part
Of the evening was spent in various
kinds of contests in which many OF
those present took part. These were
greatly enjoyed. This was followed
by a short program. Walter Healy
rendered a cornet solo which was
we'll received. The audience then lis.
tened to three Scotch songs by Alex
Mcclellan. Pearl Healy sang a very
pleasing solo and B. E. Jackson read
two selections from Vance Cooks
CHILD poems. Exhibitions We're then
given by the boys, illustrating some
of the work of the organization. Mes
sages were sent by the Morse code by
Arthur Shaw and Homer Hinton, op'
Grating two telegraph instruments in
different parts of the building. An
exhibition of Ginning the bar was
given by Julius ANDERSON, Lyle Fox,
Henry and George Doner. A remark
able feat was accomplished by George
Dohn, who succeeded in Ginning the
bar II times. Robert Dohn gave a
splendid exhibition on the horizontal
bar, and with Curtis DURHAM did some
good work in tumbling. A basketball
game was then engaged in between
two trios from the organization, Cur
tbs Dullam, Henry Dohn and Donald
McPhee opposed Julius Anderson,
George Dohn and Dill Register. The
floor being small only three players
were used on each side. The score
resulted in a score of % to 5 in favor
of the former trio The game, how
ever, was more closely contested than
the score would indicate, and many
good plays were made by both sides.
Light refreshments were served
and the crowd dispersed voting the
boys royal hosts.
This was the first anniversary OF
this organization. which has grown
now until it has Is members. Bruce
E. Jackson has been in charge of the
boys and during the past year with
their help has succeeded in building
up an organization of which all who
are interested in the future manhood
of our city should be proud.

HOLY LAND TODAY.
illustrated Talk Sunday Night at the
Presbyterian Church.

tomorrow evening at the Presbyte-
rian church Mr.. Harris, the pastor,
will speak on patriarchal life in the
Jordan country. The Bedouins who
inhabit this part of Palestine are a
very interesting people. They are
the lineal descendants of Abraham
and perpetuate the customs of the
patriarchs. The lecture will be illus
trated with so slides representing
their dress. habits of life, the scenery
in which they live. Probably no lee
ture in the series which Mr.. Harris
is giving will throw so much light
upon thu old testament as this. Those
who have no other church engage
ments are cordially invited. Service
begins promptly at 1880 o'clock. Peo-
pie are urged to come early as the
whole service will be conducted with
the use of the stereopticon.

MORGAN.W lNTERs.

Last evening on train No. 5, George
E. Morgan and his bride arrived in
this city from an extended trip
through the east, but to many who
have known Mr.. Morgan there was
some surprise when he brought back
a Mrs. Morgan, as no word of his in
,tention had been given out to his
friends before leaving for the east.
The facts are that Mr.. Morgan and
Miss Christine Winters of Indianap-
oils were married at the home of the
bride on December ~, after which
they left for Washington, D. c., re-
turning to Chicago and Duluth, where
they spent a short time.

Buckley, rector of Trim ity Episcopal church acted as grand chaplain during the laying of the cor nerstone.
 The exercises were opened with an overture by the American band. The Masonic choir, George E. Boyd, accom- panist, and Harry Stanlee Bartlett, conductor pro tenn, then sang. Pre- siding Officer Nelson J. Welton made the request to lay the cornerstone, the request being made to Grand Mas ter Justin Holden of Norwich. The grand chaplain offered prayer and the grand master issued his proclamation. Grand Treasurer Stanley B. Bosworth next deposited the box in the corner stone.
 Grand Master Holden had charge of placing the cornerstone and delivered the working tools to Architect James Callan. Addresses were made by the grand master, Rev. Frederick D.
