B. A. Stefonowicz of The World re-
turned last Monday morning from
Bowbells, where he went several days
before after his car which he stored
there when he moved to Devils Lake
last January. It took two days to
make the trip through the mud and
rain, although the distance is only a
trifle over 200 miles. Rain fell con-
tinuously from Friday noon until Sat-
urday afternoon west of Mohall and
we found that the only people who
were making trips and were getting
away with any amount of speed were
the whiskey runners who were using
Big Six Studebaker cars. We found
several Of these and they were stopp.
ing for neither mud nor anything
else, but plowed right through run
ming at high speed. Farmers and
others were not attempting to use
their cars west Of Mohall. From Rug.
by to Devils Lake the roads are fine
with the exception of several low
places where the ruts are foot or more
deep and the road between here ant
Churchs Ferry which is newly gray
eled and which makes it hard goin1
until it gets packed down.

RADIO BALKs IN LODGEROOM

Darlington, N. D, May 1O.-The
radio telephone receiving set bought
by the local Masonic lodge, the first

ces as to where it works. So far it
has not been made to work in the
lodge room. Taken to an elevator
and attached to lightning rod, it
caught music and voices from Win
nipeg and Missouri. It worked even
when attached to the steel siding If
building. Experiments are inves.
tigating the peculiar situation.
