During the past year there have
been organized In the state OF Oregon
more than 200 junior audubon socie-
ties for the study OF wild birds, Near
Is 1000 boys and girls OF Oregon

There are three ways In which chill
dren can attract birds and make them
more plentiful
First--fiave attractive trees and
bushes. so birds can have places to
build their homes In the branches
and orotches OF the trees. To build
attractive houses for birds.
second--During the winter months

not hare to 20 south for the winter,
Then they will nest nearby in the

destroying them. One OF the great
est enemies OF the bird Ia the stray

Another source OF destruction Ia
the small boy. He, so often, has not

State Engineer Is
After Road Data

Bismarck, Jan. 29.-State Engineer
Bliss is securing information from the
various county auditors of this state
relative to the location Of the more
important county roads. If sufficient
data can be secured, he hopes to COM
pile state road map Of sufficient &C.
curacy to be Of value. A great many
inquiries have been made for a state
map which would show the more
prominent roads, and Mr.. Bliss expects
that there will be big demand for
them. Mr.. Bliss says that the replies
received from the county auditors to
date practically assrede the compile
ton of map which will indicate the
location of the best roads between the
various county seats of the state.

Thomas Hall Fails TO
Get Motor Tag Order

Bismarck, Jan. 28.-Secretary of
State Thomas Hall is experiencing
considerable embarrassment over the
failure Of the manufacturer of the
states automobile tags to deliver same.
He ordered 10000. Five thousand
were to have been delivered Dec. 10,
and 5000 Jan. 10, but up to date only
100 have been delivered.
The manufacturer complains that he
is having trouble in securing dies and
material, as well as in securing help.
He has furnished tags for the state
ever since the tag law was enacted,
and has never fallen down on orders
before. But this does not relieve the
secretary from his embarrassment,
Owing to the delay, Mr.. Hall has mott.
fed the bonding company which is
back of the manufacturer, in hops s
that matters will be hurried up.
Last year 24,908 auto tags and 1907
motorcycle tags were issued by tho
state. Out of each SO received by the
state for fees, Mr.. Hall has returned
$2.7O to the county from which the
money was received. This goes into
the road fund and is quite an item.
Mr.. Hall expects that tags will soon
be on hand and assures that they will
be rushed out to the applicants as soon
as possible.

Convention
Accomplished Much

Fargo, Jan. 29.-"The greatest con.
vention ever held in the northwest"
religious or other, was closed Friday
night when the Laymen's Missionary
Convention closed with the singing of
beautiful gospel solo by Ernest MATT
zger, who sustained his reputation of
being the worlds greatest soloist.
Several records of all previous con-
ventions in this series Of IS which are
being held this winter in the United
States, were broken in several particu-
lars. The total registration was 1908,
which in proportion to population is by
far the best record yet made; 100
cities outside Fargo and Moorhead
sent delegates. Up to this time Bos-
ton, Mass, held the record with IS out
side towns represented. : The First
Methodist church of this city holds the
record of having enrolled more men
than any church in any convention
city, reaching the number of 1859.
Plymouth Congregational church led
all the churches of the territory in en-
rolling the largest per cent of men,
registering more men than male mem
bers. All records were also broken in
the distance travelled by delegates to
the convention.
The enthusiasm and religious zeal
of the convention was of high order
The good accomplished is beyond the
power of man to compute.

The resolutions committee reported
early this afternoon.
The report follows:
Whereas, we deplore the conditions
existing in the state whereby your
citizens are amenable to new legis-
lation for period of several months
following every legislative session
without having any means whereby to
ascertain or know the provisions of
such legislation, therefore, be it
Resolved that this association urge
upon its legislative committee to Sc
cure, if possible, and appropriation
from the next legislature for the dis
tribution of the session laws among
the people of the state under the ef-
fcient and economical method In
vogue in Minnesota, Wisconsin and
many other states of the union.
Whereas, N. B. Black has resigned
his position as manager of the Grand
Forks Herald, and whereas, Mr.. Black
has rendered service of inestimable
value to the North Dakota Press as
ISOLATION; therefore, be it
Resolved, that this association as
sure Mr.. Black of it's sincere appre-
citation of this service and extend to
him it's best wishes for his future hap
piness and prosperity, and sincerely
hopes that his future work will not
take him out of the newspaper field
in North Dakota.
Whereas, the association has, per-
haps unwittingly, dropped into a sys-
tenn of selecting it's president by a
method of successive promotions
which is wholly undemocratic and un-
American in that it usurps the rights
Of its new members and virtually
elects it's executive head several years
in advance; therefore, be it
Resolved, that this association be
no longer bound by this vicious pre-
cedent in the election of it's officers.
Resolved, that we extend to the citi.
zens of Grand Forks and particularly
the Commercial club and the members
of the local press, our sincere thanks
for the very excellent entertainment
afforded us during our stay in the
city. We feel that everything possible
has been done by them to make our
visit here a profitable and enjoyable
one, 'and we 60 away from the city

North Dakota Newspaper Men
Conclude a Profitable Session

Several important business matters
were taken up at the morning session,
among which were included the re-
ports Of the executive committee, of
Secretary J. H. McGarry and Treasur-
er J. B. Howard.
There also was an interesting dis
cussion regarding foreign advertising
and rates and discounts for same.
The executive committee report was
presented by M. /. Forkner Of Langdon.
The report declared that the books of
the association had been audited and
that everything was in apple pie order.
The committee strongly recommend
ed that membership dues be paid
promptly and steps taken to put the
association on a stronk financial basis.
Mr.. Forkner pointed out that only
about 16 per cent Of the dues had
been paid, which makes it extremely
difficult for the officers to carry on the
work Of the association.
In speaking of the dues, the COM
mittee pointed out that the member
ship list was a poor one, as there are
many publishers of the state who are
not members. Mr.. Forkner also said
that a number of members had moved
|away without giving the secretary no.
|tice and that their successors had not
sent notice, making it difficult for the
secretary to keep a correct list.
On motion of o. T. Rishoff, who re.
minded the convention of the adop-
ton of President Richter's recommen-
dalton yesterday, the executive COM
mittee was empowered to appoint one
publisher in each county to "gather in
the erring onse" to and secure at least
one member in counties not represent
ed on the membership roster so that
a working nucleus could be secured in
every county in the state. Mr.. Rich
ter's recommendation was that one
editor in every county be member
ship committee of one to secure mem
bers and collect dues.
Secretary J. H. McGarry declared
that the securing of new members was
a laborious task as the three members
of the membership committee had to
be notified individually and each had
to take action before a member was
admitted. ...
Grant Hager of Grafton, moved that
the powers and duties of the member
ship committee be vested in the secre-
tary, but Mr.. Hager was declared out
Of order, as this involved an amend
ment to the constitution. To amend
the constitution the secretary must
notify every member of the associa-
ton of the contemplated amendment
at least ten days before a regular
meeting of the association.
The reports of Secretary McGarry
and Treasurer Howard showed bal
ance of $179.41 on hand and disburse-
ments of $304.04. At noon today, sos
had been collected in membership
dues. This makes practically enough
to pay all outstanding debts.
The convention also voted to send a
telegram to Mrs. E. L. Richter of Lari-
more, expressing the regret of the
members that she could not attend the
meetings They also voted to send her
a bouquet of roses.
Two interesting papers were read at
the morning session. The paper of C.
M. Brinton, read by George FAIRIES of
Williston, brought forth lengthy dis
cussion on foreign advertising.
Mr.. Brinton's subject was RATES
and discounts" but he declared it

Road Commission Reports

The report of the road com missioners appointed by the board of supervisors a month before was made to the board at the regular meeting of that body last Monday. The five members of the commission were present in per- son and they had prepared a detailed report as to the amount of money needed for county roads and as to where it should be ex- pended. The report was ac- cepted by the supervisors and final action upon the matter was postponed to the regular meet ing in July.
 The recommendations of the commission were for bond issue of $100, 900, various lines of road in the county being designated for the expenditure of different sums of money. The commission further recommended that, in the event of the taxpayersvoting the bonds, the board of super vIsors appoint a commission of three to superintend the expendi- ture of the money voted.
 The board of supervisors will probably call an election at the July meeting and the taxpayers of the county will then decide whether or not the $100. 900 in bonds shall be voted.
