ANNUAL CONVENTION

Burleigh county camps of the
Modern Woodmen of America met in
conference in Bismarck yesterday to
discuss plans for the annual meet
ing Of the state camp, to be held the
first Wednesday in May. The state
capital was awarded the honor of
entertaining the North Dakota Wood
men in 1916, and it seems probable
that il Bismarck bestirs itself it may
again enjoy this pleasure in 1917.
The state capital is favored for Wood
men meetings because of its central
location and its excellent facilities
for the entertainment of large gath
erings. Secretary Remission of the
Commercial club has extended the
state camp a cordial invitation, and
its acceptance Is looked for by local
W0odmen.
The Modern Woodmen of America,
which Is one Of the nations most
rapidly growing fraternal orders.
now has 14,765 active camps in the
United States, and 326 camps In
North Dakota. Each Of the camps in
the state will be entitled to at least
one delegate. A majority will have
more, as representation is based up
on membership units. and Bismarck
should have the honor of entertain
ing several hundred lodgemen in
May.
