Community Building
Idea to Be Dropped
Until Next Spring

Nothing further towards the Sc
curing OF community building for
Bismarck will be attempted this year,
ii was unanimously dec ided ut a
meeting held last evening at the
office Of the Association Of Com
mcrce. A representative gathering
attended the session, made up of
members of all luncheon clubs, social
organizations and civic societies in
the city, the directors of the associa-
ton and the members Of the city COM
mission.
There has been some agitation to
have the bond issue proposal resub-
mittcd to the voters at once, follow
ing its defeat by such a narrow
margin on June 8 despite the fact
that the vote was almost two to one
in favor Of the project. Its defeat
was due to the fact that a two-thirds
majority was needed before the debt
limit of the city could be increased
The situation was discussed
thoroughly last night and it was de-
cded that with two elections coming
in the near future. the primary next
week and the general election in
November, it would be unwise to re-
open the matter ut this time 1t was
considered possible that the question
would again be put up to the voters
next spring, however.

Secret Of Trappers.
In the days when John Jacob Aston
was reaping his fur harvest from the
West in far, away New York, the yell
lowstone region was the jealousy
guarded secret of a few trappers. The
fur-bearing animals now in the park
approximate the numbers that they
did then, and their protection from
the INSCRIPTIONS during the winter is
another task of the park service con-
servationists. Beaver, otter, mink,
muskrat, ermine and other lesser ami
mails abound The winter ranger pa
troll on snowshoe and ski, guards
against poachers.
The predatory animals-coyote,
mountain lion and wolf-must be care
fully kept few in number. The park
service has no intention of completely
exterminating these animals. but by
trapping and shooting during the win
ter maintains small percentage of
coyotes and mountain lions in the
park. Otherwise the carefully pro-
tected big game herds would furnish
means for these predatory animals to
increase and eventually exterminate
all others. Wolves are noted in the
park from time to time, migrating In
and out of the region. A few lynx
exist.
Nowhere in the country can a region
more Astounding with wild life be found
and it is safe to say that nowhere
have conservational efforts equal to
those of the park service been exerted
for as long a time.

Automobiles VIII Skid
When Tire Rubber Is Wet

Did you ever place dependence on
your rubber heels when walking along
a rain-swept sidewalk only to be
shocked and perhaps bumped by their
inability to grip the cement? That
proves that rubber must be dry to
cling. Once rubber has become wet
it is much more slippery than oily
metal.
This simple little fact should mean
much to motorists, for by it we see
that it isn't wet pavements, but wet
rubber tires, that skid automobiles.
Steel tires wouldn't skid, because
neither wet steel nor wet concrete is
slippery. But automobiles skid in
rainy weather because wet rubber is
slippery.
All of which points to the necessity
of nonskid chains whenever the tires
are damp or wet. Only the presence
of steel cross links will effectually
stop skidding. And If all accidents
from slSidding should suddenly and
completely be eliminated, motor ia
talities and injuries would be reduced
nearly one-third. Such is the effect
of slippery wet rubber-and the inn.
portance of nonskid chains.

Directors Named for
Boys Baseball Program

Regional athletic directors to have
charge of the American Legion's ma
tional baseball program for boys have
been appointed by Frank Q. Cross, di-
rector of the National American COM
mission, which is developing the prof.
ect.
Roy e. Rice of Waterbury, Conn.,,
was placed in charge of the First or
Eastern region. Included in this are
the New England, the Atlantic and
the Chesapeake bay states.
Forrest A. Burke Of Springfield, ILL.,,
directs the Second or Central region.
including the Seaboard Great Lakes
and Southeastern states.
L. B. Allison, director Of athletics
at the University of South Dakota,
Vermilion, S. d., is director of the
Third or Middle Western section. In
this are included the corn belt, the
northern and the southwestern states.
d. L. Templeton, director of ath-
letics at Leland Stanford university
at Palo Alto, Calf, directs the Fourth
or Far Western region, embracing the
Pacific Northwest, the Pacific and the
Rocky mountain district.
The Legion boys baseball plan con-
templates the holding of contests and
championships in local cities, in dis
tricts, in states and in four regions,

nection with the national convention

bushels, sixty pounds to the bushel.
The seed is put up in bags, two and &
half bushels to the bag. Future con-
tracts on seed are in lots Of fifty, or
multiples of fifty, with minimum
carload Of 200 bags.
The practice Of dealing In futures on
clover seed has made the Toledo mar
ket an all-year-around proposition,
with October, December and March
the biggest trading months. The first
new-crop trading is for October deliv-
cry.
Postwar conditions have left their
mark ON the Toledo clover market, and
therefore upon the market of the
world. American farmers, even in the
clover belt. have reduced the amount
Of clover they raise, and French clover,
which is of good grade. but cheaper
than American clover, now figures IN
the Toledo market to an important de-
gree, regardless Of tariff Of four
cents a pound.

Death Revives Love
Lost in Court Action

Milwaukee, George Mcnamara, sew
enty-one years old, who loved and was
loved, has been forgiven In death. He
will be buried by the woman who
caused his arrest.
McNamara's body was found float
ing in the Milwaukee river, back Of
Ravenna park, in Shorewood. The
picture of a woman found in pocket
was the only clew to his identity.
Miss Alice Kingsley, Waukesha
seamstress, asked Sheriff Owen d.
Owens to look at the body. The sher-
if knew Mcnamara because he had
been In jail. He came to Milwaukee
and identified the man and the picture
of Miss Kingsley.
Mcnamara was arrested in March
on a warrant obtained by Miss Kings
ley, who said that he had obtained
81, 400 from her after they were en-
gagged to be married. Mcnamara had
refused to marry her later because he
was not making enough money.
Miss Kingsley now thinks that he
brooded over her action. Knowing that
he could not repay the money and
fearing a prison sentence, he jumped
into the river to end his troubles, she
believes.

Tires in Hot Weather

Many motorists still believe that In
hot weather the air in a tire expands
to the danger point. 1t is true, of
course, that on warm day the air
does expand, but so slightly that its
effect is negligible. The practice of
running tires at less than the recon-
mended pressure instead of effecting
a saving has cost motorists thousands
of dollars, for internal tire heat re-
suits not from the temperature of the
outside air but from constant bend
ing of the tire as 1t rolls along the
road.

Park Rangers Get
Ready for Winter

largely foster the excellent hunting
found in nearby localities.
Feed Elk In Winter.
Winter feeding is resorted to with
the elk after deep SHOWS have covered
all available natural hay With elk,
and likewise with antelope, the topog-
raphy Of Yellowstone park creates the
winter problem. The park is much
like a huge plateau as big as the
states of Rhode Island and Delaware,
higher than the surrounding land and
circled by mountains. The heavy win
ter SHOWS force the animals down the
river valleys from the plateau into
lower country, where grazing may be
found. Here they are unprotected
from predatory animals and other dan
gers, hence it is to their advantage to
be kept in the park by feeding.
While the elk range in almost every
section Of the park, usually well back
from the roads during the summer,
the antelope are found almost entirely
in the northern portion Of the Yellow
stone. They number about 900 and an
increase of possibly $50 kids took
place this year, the most favorable for
wild life in park records. Many are
seen throughout the summer near
Camp Roosevelt and Tower Falls and
in the winter they migrate to the
grassy ridges along the northern boun

take advantage of the winter feed

congregates about the settlement at
Mammoth hot springs, begging their
food from the rangers and others liy-
ing there.

Park officials are happy over the
recent marked increase in numbers Of

light is that these wary animals, fire.
quenters of the swamps and timber
lands, are being seen by the summer
tourists from the auto roads. Not far
from Mammoth an old COW moose with
twin calves has been noted along the
road to Old Faithful time and again
this summer. The rangers estimate
525 moose in Yellowstone.
Few who have followed the auto
road to the summit of Mount Wash

There are 600 mountain sheep scat

TOLEDO GOVERNS WORLDS

Trading in seeds began in Toledo
