Throw Open Homes
& To Visiting Women

The Bismarck homes have been
thrown open to the visiting ladies' who
will attend the conference on Monday
and Tuesday. Owing to the fact that
this is wartime, no social entertain.
ments have been planned for the
ladies', it being believed that those
who attend do so for the prime pur.
pose of getting all they can from the
very interesting lectures to be given.
There will be so much, in an educa.
tional way, of particular interest to
the women, Miss Minnie Nelson of
Valley City being on the program for
one of her usual interesting lectures,
that it was not deemed advisable to
plan anything of strictly social ma
tnre for these visitors. However,
there will be committees at the trains
as we'll as committees at the different
hotels to welcome these guests.
