OUTLINE PLAN !.
FOR CENTRAL
CHARITY WORK
Community Drive in Fall to
Substitute for Individual
Drives Is Planned
CALL A CONFERENCE
Eeach of "a Organizations
Will Be Asked to Send
Representatives

Plans were outlined tentatively
Saturday evening for the establish
ment of registration bureau and
the promotion sometime this fall of
community chest drive in which
all solicitation for charitable pur-
poses can be made at one time in
stead of periodically as is now the
case.
The special committee named by
the Association of Commerce as the
outcome of sentiment expressed at
, the recent forum of the organization
held its first meeting Saturday eve7
. ming. 1t was decided to send no.
tce to each of the some "a organi-
cations dispensing charity in Bis
marck requesting them to send a
representative to general confer
! ence. Here an attempt will be made
to have every organization consent
to register their charity cases and
record all social welfare effort at
the central registration office so that
there will be no duplication of time,
effort and money and, which is as
important, that the professional beg
gar can be detected and only the
worthy receive aid.
i 1t has been proposed that the reg
istration work be carried on by the
] Rurleigh County Chapter of the Red
Cross which now maintains an Of
, flee and has quite system of rec
ords and data built up.
The committee>has in view train
ed worker to address the proposed
conference and as soon as this work
err can be notified the date of the
conference will be announced.
Bismarck is completely sold upon
|. the idea of registration bureau or
as it is known in some cities an
Associated Charities. The plan is
simple. 1t merely seeks to have all
organizations report their cases to
the central bureau and when aid is
asked to call up the bureau and seek
information. In doubtful cases an
investigation will be made The, Red
Cross, City and County now employ
Miss Lawrence, trained welfare
worker. If the plan is successful,
additional office help will be given
her so that she can devote more
time to field work and to aid in di-
recting along efficient lines the
charity efforts of Bismarck.
1t is planned to have a system of
friendly visiting. Much is being done
tcalong this line now under county
4 city and Red Cross auspices.
The committee members hope that
all lodges and associations will CO.
operate in making the registration
: bureau success. 1t is not the in
tention of this bureau in any way
to interfere with lodge benevolences
among members, but merely to aid
these organizations in any charit-
able work they may engage which is
not Of a purely lodge nature.
In the fall, if deemed advisable, a
special Community Chest committee
will be named to conduct great
community chest drive under the
auspices Of the Association of Com
merce. Business men have complain
ed of the frequency of drives and
solicitations for funds. In the COM
!, munity chest idea this evil is re-
duced to minimum and the budget
made up for all purposes for the
year. and the drive put over by a
number Of aggressive teams work
ing through the Association OF
Commerce machinery.

Of the stage must bow to that most
thrilling creation of Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle, "The Hound of the
Baskervilles," stunningly dramatic
and mystifying perturbation now
showing at the Capitol Theatre.
When asked some years ago
which of his mystery tales he re-
garded as the most weird and sus-
penseful, Sir Arthur without u
moments hesitation replied: "Why
The Hound of the Baskervilles' y.
Thus this famous story of the thrill
ing adventures that befell the noble
Baskervilles in old England stands
as perhaps the greatest of all Sir
Arthur's much read stories.
1t doesn't require unusual powers
of imagination to realize what mys-
terry can be developed in a story,
the central figure of which is a
flaming hound-a mysterious, mar.
eating dog of the mastif breed that
roams the desolate Moors at night
and glows in the darkness as il 1t
wore coat of fire.
But there are other mysterious
figures in "The Hound of the Bas-
kervilles.H There is Sherlock Holmes
too, brilliantly played by Ellie Nor
wood, and the devoted Watson and
all the other favorites who came
forth from the pages of Sir Arthur's
famous tale. Throughout the story
is the choke Of suspense, the thrill
of mystery with which Sir Arthur
invests all of his stories. But in this
instance there seems to be just n
trifle more of those hugely enter
tanning qualities.
For those who have read Sir
Arthur's novel the screen version
will offer decided treat for they
will see theSfigures Of the tale spring
into life upon the screen.

Three other notable features make
this picture one of the strongest in
which Mr.. Valention has yet appear

story is the famous novel "Amos

ed one of the most successful Amer
lean works of fiction. 1t was adapt
ed to the screen by June Mathis,
the adaptor of "The Four Horsemen
of the Apocalypse" blood and
Sand" and other Valentino pictures.
The cast is unusually large and in

glanced at BARLEY. His face was set,
a white line showing around his tight
ly closed lips. He was angry, very
angry.
AS he turned to Roche, who stood
with ewes bullying, his voice shook a
little. "Roche, go and get Miss Pot
ter at once. Tell her to call all the
servants and have them assemble in
the living room. / will be down in
a moment"
Roche hurried out without speak
ing. Immediately BARLEY bent again
over the bed, studying the position OF
the hand that had held the revolver.
When he Strengthened up he told the
photographer that he would not need
him any longer. AS soon as the young
man had left the room, BARLEY turned
to me with a rueful little smile.
"Well, Pelt, / certainly slipped up
this morning. We left this room with
out locking the door. True, there
was no key, but / should have left
either Roche or you on guard. In
stead of that we have given someone
a chance to slip in here and remove

moving a valuable piece of evidence.
The joke is that the removal of the
revolver does not make much differ

all heard Miss Potter say that it had

suggested it. Every one else who

"That's the queer thing about it,
Pelt. Only those that were in the

Potter told others when she left here.

The campaign against lynching OF

up by DR. George E. Haynes of New

Committee members, who yesterday
