Nov. 80, with the usual Wednesday

She will be seen here after a tri-

at the nature of Miss Fosters role
In her family she is regarded as the
ugly duckling and the detestable
brat, and if anything goes wrong she
is blamed for it. She has a Eighty,
whining and socially pretentious
mother and an elder sister with the
temper of a leopard.
Then comes the romance in Pa
tricia's life. Patricia loves the
young man whom her sister has
tossed over and who has been moon
ing about as blighted being. She
tells him that she. too has a heart
break in her life, and he, being a gen
erous youth with ideas about psy
chology, undertakes to teach her
how to win her man. OF course, the
teacher falls in love with the pupil,

his ranching days in Billings coun-
ty.
Already the state board of admin

to become a beautiful, sheltering
grove of evergreens, elms and cot

cedar has been planted closer to the
| cabin.
In little yard between the cabin
and protecting fence has been
planted by Bismarck members of the

and shrubs. The temporary wire
fence is to be replaced by perma
| nent fence of wire and native stone
through contributions Of approx
mately $500 made by members of the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion in the state.
The old cabin, stripped of its fur

| seums in the east, is to be refurnish-
| ed to suggest the manner in which

ranching days. A replica of desk

A. r. chapter have volunteered to
"take turns" in staying at the cabin
each day from June Is to Sept IS,
during which period thousands Of
tourists will pause at the Roosevelt
shrine. The state board of admins
tration has arranged for night
patrol.
A register will be kept, which Wis

the local women meet the expenses
of perpetual care.
The cabin is now as it was when
Roosevelt occupied it, having been
restored to the old division of rooms
more than two years ago, by the
members of the D. A. R. It does
have new single roof-there are
some who say the roof was of sod
and others that it was of boards; but

a water tight, single or metal roof
IS necessary to prevent deteriora-
