Spending Millions For Roads

/ Hillsboro' county voted S3,0O0,Oo0,
Duval county voted S3,O00,000, and
now enterprising business men are
asking s5,0O0.00O to build roads and
link up the county system.
Tennessee is voting on a $4,000
600 bond issue, and has spent $SS3,-
600 in the last few months.
Georgia increased its funds $780,
600. Kentucky has contracts estim-
ated at 100000, Louisiana $685.
900, and Mississippi sS44,00O.
Good roads spell prosperity in
capital letters. The trivial amount
of extra taxation Involved is not wor-
thy of consideration spread out as
it always is over so many years.
1t would be well if the town and
village officials in every community
were to get an inspiration from what
the southern counties and state are
doing, and begin work of local road
improvement.
Certainly wisdom calls for local
authorities to ask a half dozen of the
most intelligent and interested
citizens to act as Planning Comm
ission whose duty it snail be to study
the local situation and to lay plans
and make recommendations for road
development. Once the people see
what improved streets will do for
them and learn how they can be fin
anced with slight burden they will
get behind the movement. Every
foot of improved street is an in
surance policy guaranteeing the in
creased value OF farms, real estate
and business.

l872-THE GOLDEN YEARS 1922

A gentle tender maiden, but fifteen years of age
She gave to Christ the best Of fendeed youthful sage!
All that in life she valued, to God she noby gave
And by her Christian teaching Gods little did save
And then to St.Alexus in 80 she was sent
Which had been newly started by a noble band six,
Who just five years of service in charity had SPENT
When our dear Sister Bonace her zeal and effort
Her generous spirit shrank not from sacrifice pan
Of all her noble efforts not spent in vain
For her ceaseless toling best with great
While full Of tender pity she soohed distress
Gods blessings Showers year thousands
For health Of soul and body where
Our Sisters band in number thirty-four grew strong
From out their golden western land they sing her song!
Hail to Sister Boniface, who trod the Golden Way!
All praise and honor bring her, her Golden Jubilee!
Sing loud and clear her praises of these
Give thanks to Creator for His love of Fifty
Sister Adelgundis.
The Bismarck tribune., 1922-02-13
HISTORY OF ST. ALEXIUS

st. Alexius Hospital was founded
and first opened in the year 1885,
when it was bought by the Benedictine
Sisters, of st. Joseph, Mimi, as the
LanIborn Hotel, which had been built
in 1884, by Alexander Mckenzie and
Richard Mellon. The building is still
standing today as one of Bismarck's s
foremost landmarks" on the corner
of Main and Sixth Street, and is now
known as the Bismarck Business Col
lege."
The New St. Alexius Hospital is To-
Gated on the corner of Ninth and
Thayer streets. It is of easy access
from the Northern Pacific and 500
depots. The building consists of
three wings. The central wing is
five stories in height, and the two
lateral wings, four stories. 1t is built
of brick and absolutely fireproof
