Hubert Dehlinger was leaving Sat-
urday morning on the auto stage for
the Oakdale country where he was
going to get out his car and come in
after his wife.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dehlinger are just
back from spending the winter on
the Pacific coast, and if Mr.. Dehlin-
will soon be the owner Of some graz
ing land and some stock. He did not
see any chance to make any money
out west and will be we'll satisfied to
get stock ranch in this vicinity.
The Pacific coast country is fine
place to visit and spend little sur
plus change.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dehlinger met a
great many Dickinson people in
southern California, including the
Crowls, Courtneys, Cunninghams,
Elfstroms and Freemans. Among
those known here many years ago
were Capt. Geo. Auld and the Collins
boys. Mr.. and Mrs. C. f. Gordon were
pleased to see these Dickinson visi-
tors, also Mrs. Anna Lenneville and
the Scofields. At San Francisco, John
Lewis, passenger conductor on the
S. P. Ry., was seen. John is former
Dickinson boy who lived at Mandan
for long time before going to the
Coast. Gordon Dodd, who was with
Mr.. Dehlinger part of the time, is
now prospecting for gold in Oregon
and expects to show up at his old
home with carloads of apples in the
fall.
Justice and Mrs. A. P. Folsom have
been busy the past week telling their
friends about their 40-day trip. AS
previously stated in these columns,
they were joined at Minneapolis by
Mr.. Folsom's daughter and her hus-
band, Mr.. and Mrs. C. R. Pendergast,
of Hettinger. AS they journeyed
south they found snow, ice and slush
nearly all the way to Springfield, Mo-,
where they visited Mrs. DR.. Orr (nee
Virginia Beidler), a daughter of Mrs.
Folsom and a former teacher in the
Dickinson district. Mr.. Pendergast
visited George Harkins, former
| Cedar Creek cattle raiser, at his new
| Nevada, Mo-, home. The party re-
turned to Kansas City, going to Den
yer, thence south to Pueblo and
Blanca. At the last named place
they visited Mrs. Folsom's son, a
Methodist clergyman and principal Of
the high school. They enjoyed a day
with the Mormans at Salt Lake City
and took the Santa Fee to Los Ange-
les and San Diego. The Panama ex-
| position grounds at San Diego are
very attractive and the building
erected by the seven southern coun-
| ties of California was the one that
held their attention most. Here they
found Miss Edna Scofield in charge
| of the publicity bureau, and she was
| doing the work to the satisfaction of
all visitors. At Los Angeles they
! visited relatives and saw the sights
| for three days. The Pendergasts saw
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Gibbs on the way
up to San Francisco. Mr.. Folsom
thinks North Dakota expended
$4,000 we'll in the building on the
Panama exposition grounds at Frisco.
The exhibits are good and the atten-
ton given visitors by Will E. Hol-
bein, publicity manager, and Miss
could ask. In the opinion of Mr.. Fol-
oO1u1 I1AS SdHdu1dA UuAu1liS olAu ca
| hibit are the finest on the grounds.
Austria, Norway, Sweden, Denmark,
Holland, China and Japan all have ex-
pensive exhibits. A day was spent
at Portland. At Tacoma and Seat
tie they saw J. F. Gaunt, who has a
good position with a large wholesale
house. Mr.. and Mrs. Gaunt were
early colonists at New England, the
wife's maiden name being Griswold.
At Kent another daughter, Mrs.
Vernon Rutledge (nee Edith Beidler)
was visited by Mrs. Folsom. Mrs.
Rutledge was a former teacher in the
Dickinson schools. Here the Dickin-
son party found Tim Randall and his
son, Steve Randall. Steve has mar
ried again, has two children and is
an assistant superintendent in the
Pacific Coast Condensed Milk Co.,
manufacturers of the Carnation
brand, found in all leading grocery
stores of the world. Mr. Folsom
found that r. L. Davidson, formerly
school superintendent at Kent and
Dickinson, was now a teacher at
Salem, Oregon. The S. s. Sutherland
property at Kent was pointed out to
Mr.. Folsom. After leaving the Sound
country, Mr.. and Mrs. Folsom came
directly home, and are more content
ed than ever with their western North
Dakota surroundings. They had a
splendid trip, saw many interesting
sights but no place, all things con-
sidered, better than their home in
