children and adult marshals.
When vegetables began to dance
along the street, big red tomatoes,
green leaves of spinach, long yellow
wax beans, beets and carrots exclam
ations of delight broke forth from
the crowd. Ten healthful vegetables
, that should be part Of every child's
diet were reprcsented by boys and
girls.
Flag at Head of Parade.
Leading the parade of about 200
| children was Marvel Kjelstrup on a
Shetland pony bearing large Amer
lean flag. Following the horse was
banner bearing the insignia, make
every Bismarck baby better baby"
ST. Mary's band composed of rep
resentative group of the youth of the
city made a place for themselves with
the public by display of some fine
musical numbers that added zest ard
pep to the parade.
This is the first public appearance
to be made by the boys and they
deserve high praise for the way in
which they held up their part OF
the program. Bismarck appears to
have an abundance of musical talent
waiting for leadership.
| Following the band came group
of Indian children dressed in native
costume. They formed delightfully."-
picturesque part of the children's
group. In contrast to this scene OF
early native life appeared Maypole
of pastel shades carried by group
of little girls. Near the end Of the
parade came the group of tiny tots
carefully guarded by a corps OF
nurses and alternative mothers.
The rear of the marchers was
brought up by big symbol of the
children's friend, the COW, with the
printed words of "Use my products
freely and l will build for you ma
ton that is powerful in body and
brawn."
Picturesque Scene.
While many more children might
have taken part in the parade at the
expense of diminished picturesque
beauty and much added labor to the
directors, yet prettier presentation
of the significance of healthful chill.
dren, proper food, and happy children
could scarcely have been staged.
To the women Of the city who de-
voted many weeks Of preliminary
work in preparation for the chile
welfare week is due much credit.

of the Bismarck Water Supply Com
pany's plant to arbitration and to
sell to the city at the price fixed by
arbitrators, was made by Judge
George p. Flannery Of st. Paul, in
letter to the city commission, de-
livered today.
In the letter Mr.. Flannery stat
cd the company would agree to a
maximum valuation of $500C00 to
remove fears of some people of re-
suits of arbitration. Mr. Flannery
has conferred with members of the
city commission individually during
his stay here of few days, and
probably will retsrn to S. Paul to
+ night.
The city election on the issuance
of $225,OOO water works bonds is set
for Monday May IA. Mayof Len
hart said that the commission was
not in position to deal with Mr.
Flannery or anyone else, before the
electors had spoken on the bond IS
sue and bids had been received on
and making additions to the old. The
city commission, then, he said, will
know just where it stands.
Mr.. Flannery's letter follows:
Board of City Commissioners
of the City of Bismarck, N. d.
Gentlemen:
We addressed a letter to you un-
der date of December 30th, 1922,
stating in effect that if the City of
Bismarck desired to purchase the
plant of the Bismarck Water Supply
Company and we were unable to
agree upon the value of the same,
that some form of arbitration might
be agreed upon to determine he
value. The Bismarck Water Sup
ply Company never received any
answer to that letter or suggestion
Since that date protracted and eX-
pensive litigation has been carried
on between the parties without
reaching final decision.
1t has been stated to us by some
citizens of the City of Bismarck
that the City objected to fixing
| the value of arbitration because
they feared the arbitrators might
fix what some possibly would con-
slider an excessive valuation. To OBJ
viate that objection we desire te
make this proposition for the sale
of the plant Of the Bismarck Water
Supply Company to the City of Bis.
marck: the price to be paid therefor
to be in cash or its equivalent; the
purchase price to be fixed by arbl'
tration, with maximum sum of five
hundred thousand dollars ($5OO,OO0,
for the entire plant, which sum i:
less than the average cost of re
production as testified to by the
Company's and the Railroad Com
missions engineers on the severa
hearings. This proposition is base'
upon the condition that it be ac
cepted on or before May 25th, 1928
Yours respectfully

Speaking from his office at so
Oliver street, Boston, over 175 miles
of long distance telephone wire di-
rectly to the room at the Augusta
House, here the Telephone Associa-
uon OF Maine was assembled in an
hlal session, every word of Vice
president William r. Driver of the
New England Telephone and Tcle-
graph Company, fifteen minute ad-
dress was plainly audible. Mr..
Drivers voice filled the banquet hall
at the Augusta House, through the
use OF a loud speaker on this end
OF the connection. This feature of
the session of the Maine telephone
folks was most unique and enjoyable
and thoroughly successful.
Just previous to the time of tho
scheduled long distance talk. the
connections and apparatus necessary
were explained to the more than one
hundred members and guests of the
Associa ton assembled for the meet
ing. Vice president Driver, spoke
on the Public Address System"
which he was using. and also told
the members of the Association that
all of the great resources of the n.
+. T. and T. Co, and of the greater
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company and of the ~arcnt COM
pany, the Bell System. we're available
and at the disposal Of the smallest
telephone unit making up the Maine
.Associa ton.
Mr.. Drivers remarks were listened
to with the closest of attention and
at the conclusion there was a round
salvo of appreciative applause, which
of course did not reach Mr.. Driver S
ears.
Open Session Tuesday Morning
The sessions of the Telephone As
ISOLATION of Maine opened at the Au-
gusta House at 10 o'clock Tuesday

Salvation Army
Entertainment for
Relief Jap People

! A program OF unusual musical
| numbers will be put on Thursday
evening at Salvation Army Hall by
| the talented members of the Law
renee family, as means of raising
funds to be used for the relief of the
people in Japan and to provide
| equipment to take the place of that
lost in the recent typhoon there.
! Word has been received from Gen.
| eral Bramwell Booth that the larger
| part of the equipment in the east
| has been destroyed. This equipment
! which was valued at about $1,000, 900
| has taken 20 years to acquire and
consists of various buildings includ-
| ing a hospital and several schools in
Toxic. AS has already been stated
there has been a fearful loss in the
ranks of the Salvation Army workers
in that part of Japan, but already
enough have volunteered to fill the
places of those who have been lost.
General Booth has asked the Sal
walton Army to raise s10,000,000 to
replace this equipment and for relief
in the stricken districts. The por-
ton of this amount which is to he
raised in this city has been set at
$3.50
Ensign Lawrence, realizes that an
appeal for funds ordinarily hits the
same people time after time and for
that reason has undertaken to raise
the money through the concert. The
Lawrence family which is we'll known
throughout the New England states
and throughout the Salvation Army
for the fine seven piece band which
it's members composed. will be pres
ent at this concert and will give an
exhibition of musical ability that
will surprise all who attend.
Beside the band numbers and solos
end duets by various members of the
band. there will be two or three in
teresting demonstrations of trick
playinc that will be very surprising.
Miss Emily Lawrence will play a
cornet solo and also play her own
accompaniment on the piano. This
| is no mean feat nor is that of Miss
Jessie Lawrence who will play a
| cornet and trombone at the same
time There will also be a musical
uuartette composed of the younger
! members of the family. the oldest
being nine years old and the young
est four.
Next Monday night the Salvation
Army Corps from this city will go
| to Togus where through the kind
ness of Governor Hadley they will
| have the theatre for meeting.
| They will also visit several outlying
towns within the next few days and
| feel confident that in a short time
| Augustus quota of this relief fund
will be forwarded to the proper au-
thorities.
