Bismarck. X. d.. May 11.-R. j. J..

Der Of the state council Of defense.
arrived in town tonight to attend the
Bismarck farmers union convention.
Mr.. Montgomery was wearing very
expensive coat. While acting as u
tioneer for a Red Cross sale at a Kid
der county school a few days ago when
the mercury was up around ninety,
Montgomery became SO hot that he
tore off his coat, and passed it to some
friends. The friends bundled up the
coat in a piece of wrapping paper and
passed it back to Montgomery who
put it on the block and sold it for 50.
He did not discover the joke until it
was time to go home, when he was
forced to pay $3.50 to redeem his
garment. All the funds went to the
Red Cross.
