DIVERSITY OF BUSINESS INTERESTS GIVE
BISMARCK WEII-ROUNDED COMMERCIAL LIFE

in the latest mode, or "a new suit demanded
\ on short notice; whether it be new linoleum
for the kitchen floor, or a coat of paint for
the barn, or new furniture for the best room,
or wall paper for the whole house, Bismarck
is ready to meet the demand.
People are still buying buggies, and they
come to Bismarck for them just as they did
rs years ago. They come to Bismarck for
training invoice, piano and violin; they send
their boys and girls to Bismarck for COM
mercial education; when they are sick they
come to Bismarck's splendid hospitals, know
ing that no more skilful treatment is OBJ
tainable anywhere. If it's merely few days
outing, they come to Bismarck for it, rely
ing upon the splendid hospitality of Bis
marck's big hotels, knowing that the city
always affords something better in the way
of entertainment.
Bismarck is home to greater number
of people scattered over a wider territory
than any other city in North Dakota. And
there is a reason Bismarcks latchstring al
ways is out; Bismarck always is glad to see
folks; strangers are made to feel that they
are welcome here; they are shown that their
friendship and their patronage is appreci-
ated, and when Bismarck says "Come again."
it is not an idle phrase but sincere invita-
tion backed up by generous impulses not all
bound round with the ties of commercialism.
If you chance to be among the few who
haven't the Bismarck habit, acquire it. You'll
like Bismarck, and Bismarck will like you.

A diversity of business interests affords
Bismarck an unusually wel-rounded COM
mercial life There is practically no one line
of business which is not well represented here
by concerns which are we'll established and
prosperous.
Bismarck is the home of one of the fast
est growing and most successful life insur-
ance companies in the northwest. Its devel-
opment in any other center would be regard
ed as phenomenal. In Bismarck it is con-
sidered more or less as matter Of course,
because that is the Bismarck way.
Bismarck's foundry and machinery bust
ness from a, small beginning has developed
into an industry which serves the whole slope
and which has branched out into the manu-
facture Of staple articles heretofore not
available this side Of the Twin Cities.
Bismarcks repair shops save the whole
Slope time and money, eliminating the long
wait and the heavy express charges on ship
ments which otherwise would have to go in
to the Twin Cities or even more distant
points.
Bismarck can do and does these things
on a metropolitan scale because it has great
trade area to serve It is class of trade
which demands quality service and gets it.
Whether it be dainty hemstitching and
picoting, or kodak finishing, or new part for
the tractor or spark plug or set of tires for
the car, or new Yale lock or new key for
an old lock- whether it be an old dress to
be made over or redyed, or hat to be blocked

NORFOLK, Jan. 2.-Five Germans have been arrested following the explosions and fire which destroyed three solid blocks in the business section and caused property damage over $2,000, ,000.

 Three men were killed while fight ing the flames.
 Officers are confident that the fire which started in the Monticello Hotel was deliberate attempt on the part of alien enemies to destroy the city.
