The poultry record of the A. R.
McNeill farm, near Moorefield, Hardy
county, shows a net profit of So per
hen on flock of 1900 fowls during the
past year. The splendid improvement
of the flock during the past six years
shows that while the average yearly
egg yield per hen six years old was
l3O eggs, it was l4l eggs last year
and this year is l43 eggs.

THE WELLS DELEGATION

Gould anyone blame us if we said that we felt
nothing but contempt for the Wells county legisa-
tive delegation, Senator Wenstrom and Represen-
tatives Weld and Kunke in voting for the infa-
nous newspaper bill which practically meant the
confiscation of our property to satisfy the greed
Of gang of grafters who would monopolize the
newspaper business in every county in North Da-
skota for the next two years at least? We are
certain that the majority of the voters of Wells
county believe in fair play and justice and lin elect
ing these gentlemen to the legislature never
dreamed Of their supporting this monstrous
scheme to create a monopolistic press in their
state. Manyof the senators and representatives
are said to own stock in the various newspapers
which are called league papers and it may be that
Wells county's senator and representatives own
stock in the Wells County Free Press and if they
do they should feel douby ashamed of themselves
if for no other reason than that they passing

DOROTHY PHILLIPS CRIES .#,5tsl~

Can an actress be so affected by
her own emotional work that she can
cry when she sees herself on the
screen?
Dorothy Phillips. star Of 1.-The Heart
of Humanity which had a long run
at the Broadway theatre, was caught
crying when she attended the opening
performance OF the picture IN New
York City. She was asked to explain
why she should boo-hoo.
1T isn't my acting that affects me,
she declared as she wiped away a
tear. ITS the story. l believe |
forgot it was myself on the screen.
You see, an actress is subject to her
director. Of course we can't help but
learn something Of tae story, but 1t is
only the director who knows the en-
tire details. He places us within a
certain scene and tells us to smile, to
walk, to cry. or whatever the story
calls for. The characters are not in
all the scenes: Cons aquent'y we have
to wait until the picture is entirely
completed before we get~sthe full
worth of the story. LTD q ~

MRS. MARSH CAME TO BISMARCK ~
w WHEN CITY WAS IN ITS INFANCY

Mrs. Phoebe Marsh for whom fun
eral services will, be held at McCabe
Methodist Episcopal church Sunday
afternoon, came to Bismarck with her
husband, the late r. r.. Marsh, on the
steamboat Nellie Peck, August 2S,
1872, when the city Of Edmonton, soon
to be changed to Bismarck, was only
q month or two old. She found here
to greet here only one or two other
white women, and they passed away
or moved to some other point years
ago. For years Mrs. Marsh was hon
ored as the oldest woman resident Of
the capital city. r#y
The deceased was born February
II, 1912. in Warren county Pennsyl-
vania, q daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Grant Marsh. She spent her girl
hood days in and about Warren coun-
ty, and came in 1871 to Rochester,
Mimi, where she was united in mar
riage with Robert R. Marsh on Octo-
Der of the same year. In 1872 Mrs.
Marsh with her husband came to Bis
marck, making the loEg and haza. d GUS
journey on the old Nellie Peck up the
Missouri river, through a Scountry held
by hostile Sioux.

There's another very good reason why prices

to keep alive in face of the fact that business
wasn't to be- as usual, merchants bought stock at
wartime prices and it would simply mean ruin to
many of them to now clear their shelves and coun

Dear Editor:
The inclosed poem by S. e kiser
in the Saturday Evening POST OF
March Is, 1919, seems to me to pc
particularly appropriate at the present
time, There have come to my notice.
within the past month large number
of returned soldiers and sailors VINO
are not only out or work, but out o.
funds also. When one sees mems
Jobs filled by women and slackers,
while these boys and men are walk
ing the streels unable to find suffl'
cient work 10 sustain life, then 1t ap
pears to me that something should
be done to arouse puzzle sentiment to
such a stage that these conditions
will be ,rectified We are about to give
rousing reception to the returning
boys; wat they, as well as those al
ready returned, need is a Job for each
and every one of them.
Very respectfully,

SOME SERVICE. ~
Here is the place where worked be-
fore they told me I'D have to go;
I'd climbed along to a pretty fair Joo
it made no difference though;
They needed me-or the Nation did,
and they didn't make no excuse.
come on they said, land We'll show
you where you'll be of the great
est USE y. ~
SO they, sized me up for khaki suit,
and showed me the bunk drew.
And they taught me to hate the Ger
s. man brute, which wasn't SO hard
| to do $$g"%'
| And they hung beautiful service flag
up here where 3 worked before:
I've just been told that there amt no
job left open for ME no more!
I wish that could have seen it wave
it must have been mighty fine;
There's many a boy who is in his
grave whose stat was on there
with mine. $H%sG.,4
They hung it high on the. outer wall,
a wonderful thing, tOssee,
And because l went when l got my
call they sewed a STAR on for me.
L took my chance asythe Others did,
ana it wasn't no. holiday;
I've eaten dirt and EsleptSin mud out
where there was hell to pay
And they hung up a service flag back
here, beautiful thing, I've heard;
1t was meant to show how loyal they
were, how deeply their hearts
were stirred!
Their cheers were loud when l left
the town; l acknowledge that 1
was thrilled
But the war is done and the flag is
down, and they tell me my job is
filled!
I'm sorry their glorious service flag
no longer will be displayed
What a lot of meaning it must have
had for the heroes who got it
made! II
They put star on the thing for me
Now wasn't that noble too?
At present there doesn't appear to be
much left for man to do;
I've walked the town till my feet arc
sore; I'm lonely and sick and
broke, r. n X
And guess my star is fallen star
and their service flag was a joke.
