READY FOR FARGO TRIP

The Bismarck Rotary club is plan
ming to undertake a big program for
Bismarck boys. ..=' -F
The plan was outlined by F., L.
Conklin president Of the club, on the
eve of the clubs departure for Fargo
to attend the district conference of
Rotary. .a..
A budget to take care of the work
for one year has been made. The club
now is engaged in the selection Of a
man who who will give all Of his
time to the boys activities of Bis
marck, and in addition will aid in all
community endeavors. ....
Rotary has undertaken as its prin-
cipal work in the city the aiding of
the activities Of the future generation
Of Bismarck citizens. One of the en-
couraging features to the club in this
line of endeavor was the first Fathers
and Sons banquet ever held here,
which was real success.
Would Unite Scouts.
The supervisor OF boys activities
whom the Rotary club will employ
will take charge of and coordinate
the Boy Scout troops of the city, and
will look after recreation and play of
the boys. The Rotary club teels that
there is a big field for the club.
Eighty-five per cent of the club
members will make the trip to the
Fargo DISTRICT conference, where H.
900 Rotarians from North Dakota,
Minnesota, part of Wisconsin and the
upper peninsula Of Michigan will be
present. Mr.. Conklin planned to leave
earlier to participate in committee
discussions previous to the assembly.
Of the conference. Most of the club
members will leave tomorrow night
in special car. Dickinson Rotarians,
which Bismarck Rotarians helped to
start in Rotary, will be on the same
train.
Wear Distinctive Garb.
The Bismarck RQtarians will wear
distinctive garb, which is held to be
very appropriate for delegates from a
state capitol, where there are officials,
politicians, penitentiary and so
many other things. The Rotarians
will not divulge the secret Of their
costumes until they leave, however.
The club will make the Pullman car
its home during the Fargo stay.

ganized in April, 1920. The officers OF
the club are: President, F. l.. Conk-
lin vice president, Burt Finney; sec
