There's a man in Williston who
would abolish the word "hello" in con-

does not express any meaning, be-

"For instance" he says, "when you

hardly ever get reply like this from
an up-to date telephone exchange. 1t

I get reply something like this-'Mr.

The two day Farmers Institute, un-
der the supervision of Prof. T. A.
Hoverstad, was held in the court room
in the court house Monday and Tues

keep some away who had intended to
come in.
A wide range Of agricultural sub
jects, pertaining to the conditions
in Williams county were discussed by
the men in charge and local men who
are interested in agriculture.
Among those here to take part in
the institute was Prof. w. c. Palmer,
Agricultural Editor, North Dakota

brother of Attorney E. A. Palmer,

THE TRAIN TWO j.

IN WILLISTON

"Good morning Joe!"-" Morning
little colder this morning"-"Yes, but
you ought to have been here seven
years ago this morning. About 80
below and blowing to beat the band.
I remember it because had just
landed in Williston."
The above conversation took place
between Clerk of Court Seibert and
the Graphic man last Saturday morn
ing, March 18th, and then Mr.. Seibert
related further:-"If it had not been
for the east-bound train being late
I doubt if I WOULD be here now.
landed here in the morning and begun
looking for a job. There was nothing
doing and l thought would buy a
ticket home with what money I had
before some one touched me for it.
bought the ticket and came back up
town to wait for the train. l went
into one of the barber shops and was
loafing around when a Mr. Field, from
my home, came in and told the pro-
pI1eCOr 10 give Huc d JOD, anu leI ile
stay while any way. He finally did,
and here 1 am. I am glad of it too.
The very first man 1 shaved was
Jos. Wegley. Guess will remember
that day a good while because was
sort of homesick."
But for the train being late the
present popular clerk Of the district
court might now be down in some
staid old Indiana town, telling how
fast he "beat it" out of the now me-
tropolis of Western North Dakota.

THE BOWLING
CHAMPIONSHIP
MARSHALL WINS FIFTEEN GAME
CONTEST IN SIX MEN
TOURNAMENT

The bowling championship title of
Williston hung in a balance for the
past week or ten days and finally fell
to C. L. Marshall, who walked away
with the belt in a series of fifteen
games just finished between six of
the top-notch bowlers of the city.
The series of fifteen games was
agreed on some time ago and these,
were played off in three different even
ings, five games being played each
night. The contest was staged at
the Great Northern alleys.
Up to. the beginning of the last
five games w. J. Kelley had the field
distanced by margin of over 80
pins, but Marshall returned TO form
in the last series and rolled the total
high score for the series, making 978
pins in the five games. This brought
up his average and gave him lead
of 81 pins over Kelley, who took sec
ond place. Marshall also rolled high
score for a single game in the last
series, getting PAP. The grand aver
age for the six men was 174 1-3.
The players total scores and aver
ages are as follows.
% Marshall:-955, 1928, 978-
Total 2758. Average 1873 1915.

great help if every Citizen who has
question on his mind regarding any
of our community problems will come
forward with that question: It is
only by this means that real point can
be given to the discussions.
Field Organizer N. C. Abbott spent
part Of the day in the city last Fri
day going over some of the details of
the Institute with members of the
local committee. He expressed the
hope that any of the local clubs and
organizations who desire to hold con-
ferences with any of the Institute will
advise him of taht fact in good sea-
son. The headquarters of the Insti-
tute will be at the Great ), rthern
Hotel. The university men are here
to work and we should see that they
are kept busy.
Detailed program Of two weeks ago
will be given in the same order on
the postponed dates. 1t is possible
that President Crane may nat be able
to be present, but all other 'acmbers
of the staff will be on hand as an
nounced.
The Commercial Club will give a
big dinner at the Library Hall on the
second day and every person inter-
ested in the institute should make
arrangements to attend this luncheon

IRELAND'S SAINT
NOT FORGOTTEN
MARCH nth OBSERVED IN WILL
LISTON BY WEARING OF THE
GREEN

Monday, was St. Patrick's Day, and
throughout the world wherever an
Irishman, or the son or daughter of q
descendant of the Emereld Isle, might
be seen tiny sprig of shamrock, a
tie or ribbon or some of the odd and
quaint St. Patrick's Day novelties,
which gave mute evidence of the fact
that Ireland's patron saint was being
honored.
In Williston green ties, sprigs Of
shamrock and ribbon buttonhole
streamers, were in evidence through
out the day. A few social functions;
marked by "green" favors, and ST.
Patrick Day decorations were held.
Williston graphic. (Williston, Williams County, N.D.) 1895-1919, 1913-03-20

1t was because of one of those hap
penings over which man has but small
control that it was necessary to
change the date of the Citizens In
stitute from March IL and 13 to
March 26 and q; but it seems evil
dent now that the Citizens of Willis
ton will lose nothing by the postpone
ment. 1t is quite probable that by
next week the weather will be such
that it will be both easy and pleas
ant for townspeople and farmers to
turn out for the sessions of the busy
two days. The added publicity should
bring out many more people. During
added time, many people in the city
have been thinking out the questions
that they intend to ask, though there
is still some room in the boxes at the
Great Northern Hotel and the Public
Library for more questions.
Ever since the institute was con-
templated, it has been the determina-
tion of the members of the CONNER
cial Club to make this gathering one
that will be rich in results for Willis
ton. This can best be done through
the cooperation of every citizen who
is interested in the welfare of our city.
The members of the University who
come here to participate in the activi-
ties of the Institute will find it a

ANOTHER BANK
FOR WILLISTON
FIFTH FINANCIAL INSTITUTION
TO ENTER FIELD-CONsOLI- :
DATION TALK

Another bank will be organized and
enter the financial field in Williston
in the near future.
For some time rumors that the or
ganization of another bank W. being
considered by local people, and some
parties from st. Paul and Minneapolis,
have been prevalent, but nothing def
mite could be learned until The past
week. One of the out-of-town par
ties who has been here, and who will
be interested in the new enterprise,
stated that the bank was an assured
fact. This statement, and al o one
to the effect that the larger proper
tion of those interested are local peo-
pie, and that a cite had been option
ed, furnishes the base of the only in
formation available at this time. The
new bank will be a state bank and
will probably have capitalization Of
from $4,000 to $4,000.
Also, for some time, there have
been rumors of a consolidation be-
tween ~he Citizens National Eank and
the First National Bank, the Citizens
taking over the First National. Par
ties interested in these institutions
would neither confirm nor deny such
rumor, but stated that they had heard
rumors Of such deal.
